However, when she finally met Jake, she “was kind of turned off“.

“I wsnt to go, shake your hand. Then, you gave me a fist bump and said, ‘No, I don’t shake hands’. And I was like, ‘Oh, this kid!‘” explained Serrano as Paul listened. But, why did Jake Paul not shake Amanda’s hand? “So, I had like covid… I was saving everyone else,” replied ‘The Problem Child’. At this Serrano gratefully added, “You saved my life in many ways.”

Along these lines, Serrano mentioned that the first time she met Jake, they were in Logan Paul’s house in LA. And, as they went to a gym to work out, Serrano noticed Jake’s work ethic. As a result, she said, “And then we were at the gym. From there, mesmerized by your work. You work super hard. One of the hardest workers in the gym.”
