Jokingly, the 36-year-old comedian explained that men tend to have very few pictures of themselves that actually showcase their ‘true selves’. She said that every guy she came across was a surfer, a photographer, had a dog and their best friend’s kid. Thus, her experience with the dating app was soured when her dating experience went poor. She spoke about it as she once booked a date with a guy and he stood her up at the time when they were supposed to meet.

Drew further stated that being stood up by a dating app match isn’t ‘shocking’ because it happens very often. Nikki then responded to it that being stood up is ‘so disappointing’ after being excited and spending time in getting dressed. The 50 First Dates star confessed that she felt stupid. During the conversation, the actor never disclosed the app’s name and only revealed that it was a ‘celebrity dating app’.

Meanwhile, she informed that many ‘high-power men’ have their accounts on the dating app but she decided not to opt for them. When Nikki suggested that the date was intimidated by Drew, she disagreed with it. She said that she thinks her match is an uncourteous person and he had his reasons to turn her down which were fine for him but felt the wrong way to the actor. Nikki concluding the topic by saying that it may be personal or it may be not, they just don’t show up.
