The model had an unconventional job during her university days

New reality star Halle Cooley claimed she “made a living off creepy men” before trying to win $1 million on Netflix.

The Texan model appeared in Season 3 of Outlast: The Jungle, which premiered on the streaming giant on June 10. It follows 16 strangers dropped in the Panamanian jungle with nothing but basic supplies and their outdoor skills.

Working in teams, they must survive life in the unforgiving jungle in order to win the huge prize pot. While she was introduced as a model on the show, Halle previously worked for the Twin Peaks restaurant chain, known for having its waitresses wear revealing uniforms.

In 2024, the Netflix star shared a TikTok video of herself wearing the sports bar’s classic plaid crop top and mini denim shorts uniform.

She posted it alongside the candid caption: “When you make a living off of creepy men saying you’re the most beautiful thing they’ve ever seen.”

Halle also shared a vlog on the day she applied for the role in 2023, and explained that she needed a solid job to make money while attending university.

Nowadays, she primarily works in modelling and has built a huge online following of over 300,000 as an influencer.

Although she was determined to outlast the jungle, Halle quit the show after an impressive 26 days. She recently reflected on her journey, admitting it was “the hardest thing” she’s ever done.

Writing on Instagram, the influencer said: “Reminiscing on the almost 30 days I spent surviving the jungle… this was my bed. Where I got eaten alive by bugs and barely slept (really makes you appreciate a bed and AC, haha).”

She continued: “Even though it was the hardest thing I’ve ever done, what a freaking experience!!! I had zero survival skills going in and was terrified. I only relied on my values and work ethic. It’s incredible what your body can do when you put your fears aside.

“This truly made me a better person, and I couldn’t be more grateful for the people I was with.”
