Thank you so much @SoCalValerie You are such a sweetheart 💋 @LayTalkPodcast

Thank you and I can’t wait for the LayCool Reunion on @LayTalkPodcast @McCoolMichelleL #RealTalk #Flawless 💋

Just to clear something up—the conversation on LayTalk was not about @MariaLKanellis. I’d hate to see Maria receive negativity over something that wasn’t about her. @LayTalkPodcast is a place for us to share our stories and experiences, and I want it to remain that way. 💋

Miami days 2006 ……. Layla El 💋@LayTalkPodcast

So patient, so giving & helped Me through the entire process for every Match #REALTALK Thank you so much, I appreciate it you !! @McMcoolMichelleL FLAWLESS💋

Long before wrestling… there was television. 💋 I started working in entertainment in England at 12. Those early TV jobs eventually led to an opportunity with the BBC, where I spent two years on Artifax. Here I am at 15, presenting a piece on Grease. Seems like I’ve always loved to talk. 💋

Cyber Sunday — October 28, 2007. 💋 We really got paid to do this. 😂 Almost 19 years later… would your vote change? Drop a comment — which Diva gets your vote today? @LayTalkPodcast 💋

Layla El store is officially open. TheLaylaEl.com A little piece of my past, directly from me to you. Signed photos, Kiss Cards, rare magazines, collectibles and more. And yes… the Zoom calls you’ve been asking for are back. Details tomorrow. 💋

Well, the timing couldn’t be better… Since everyone is talking about Kelly Kelly, I guess it’s time I shared this. My first guest on @LayTalkPodcast — Kelly Kelly.@TheBarbieBlank We had a lot to catch up on… and even more to talk about. 💋

Layla’s Surprise — A MySpace Exclusive. Straight from 2006. Me dancing during the Diva Search, wearing the same outfit I wore for the Diva Search talent competition with Luke Perry. This was just before I headed to NYC for the 2006 Diva Search finale. 20 years later, I had to bring this one out of the archives. More memories like this on @LayTalkPodcast. 💋

Happy Birthday to Kia Stevens — Amazing Kong, Awesome Kong and WWE’s Kharma. @MeanQueenK ! Please show her some love today. And I’m so happy to say she’ll also be my guest on @LayTalkPodcast. 💋

20 years ago today, this aired on WWE TV. I wanted it more than I could ever put into words. Eleven days later, on August 16, 2006, I won the WWE Diva Search in New York City. Now, exactly 20 years later, I’m starting a new chapter. @LayTalkPodcast with Layla El premieres August 16, 2026. Funny how life comes full circle. 💋

Excited to finally share that I’ll be at WrestleCon Minneapolis on August 1st & 2nd! @UltimateStarzPr I always appreciate the chance to reconnect with familiar faces, meet new ones, and hear your stories. Thank you to everyone who’s supported me throughout the years—I never take it for granted. Looking forward to a great weekend. See you in Minneapolis! 💋

20 years ago today, the 2006 Diva Search commercial aired. That young woman had no idea what was ahead—only that she was willing to take a chance. Twenty years later, I’m still grateful I bet on myself. 💋 @laytalkpodcast #DivaSearch2006 #Flawless

Late-night editing session for the first episode of @LayTalkPodcast 🎙️✨ I’ve decided… I’m just going to go for it. This podcast is about celebrating the women of the Diva Era, sharing untold stories, opening the curtain on what happened behind the scenes, and preserving a piece of wrestling history. Who should be my first guest? And if you could ask a WWE Diva one question, what would it be? Lipstick. Sparkle. Strength. Because being a Diva was never just about the sparkle. 💋 #LayTalk #LaylaEl #WWE #DivaEra

Beautiful Friday morning. What’s everyone got going on this weekend?
