- 1:17Speaker 1: I am Wow, ladies, gentlemen, gays and bays. The moment
- 1:25Speaker 1: you've all been waiting for. We are now going to
- 1:27Speaker 1: get into the most explosive, highly anticipated episode, the most
- 1:36Speaker 1: controversial episode probably in the history of the Real Housewives
- 1:41Speaker 1: of Atlanta. This episode I watch with baited breath, and
- 1:50Speaker 1: I watched it twice because I really the thing is
- 1:54Speaker 1: that I watched it the first time and I was
- 1:56Speaker 1: like watching it as like you know, Peyton, like what's
- 2:00Speaker 1: gonna happen because we already know what happened. Then I
- 2:03Speaker 1: watched it again to make sure that I was able
- 2:05Speaker 1: to understand everything, and I did. So I want to
- 2:08Speaker 1: get into it before we get into the moment that
- 2:11Speaker 1: happened between Kenya and and brit and everything.
- 2:15Speaker 2: That went down at Kenya. More hair Spa.
- 2:20Speaker 1: I want to get into more Hairy Care, LaToya, Hobbs, all,
- 2:25Speaker 1: the team twirl is the is in the chat. I
- 2:28Speaker 1: love you guys, Okay, So look, I do want to
- 2:32Speaker 1: first start off Claudia and Dustin. Kelly, I love you Kelly, Kelly.
- 2:37Speaker 1: You are raining as my number one favorite newbie. But Kelly,
- 2:41Speaker 1: baby doll. Angela Oakley is coming for your spot, and
- 2:45Speaker 1: I'm just being Kelly. I love you, but I got
- 2:47Speaker 1: to be honest with you. Angela is coming for your spot, Kelly. Sorry,
- 2:51Speaker 1: we'll see she surpasses you. But as of Doc Kelly,
- 2:54Speaker 1: you are still Carlos.
- 2:55Speaker 2: King's number one favorite newbie.
- 2:57Speaker 1: Angela Oakley scenes when it comes to her daughter and Claudia,
- 3:01Speaker 1: Dustin would love you to take take it from here.
- 3:04Speaker 2: I just want to say that.
- 3:06Speaker 1: I think Angela Oakley is such a natural and to
- 3:11Speaker 1: see her talk to her daughter and to discuss things
- 3:14Speaker 1: about going on in their dynamic, she is giving us
- 3:17Speaker 1: great personal story and I am here for all of it.
- 3:23Speaker 1: So get into Angela. Okay, Claudia and y'all agree with me,
- 3:28Speaker 1: disagree with me. What are your thoughts on her?
- 3:30Speaker 5: I think she's a great cast member being part of
- 3:34Speaker 5: this group. I don't see her like leading her own show,
- 3:36Speaker 5: but I see her as being a stand up star
- 3:39Speaker 5: in an ensemble cast because she's not Rah rah rah.
- 3:43Speaker 5: She's not there, but she's subtle about it. And like
- 3:46Speaker 5: Dustin was saying, just now, we want to see real
- 3:48Speaker 5: life stuff, and she plays right into that. And I
- 3:50Speaker 5: don't think she's playing. That's why it's good. You could
- 3:53Speaker 5: tell Charles kind of doesn't play ball with her sometimes
- 3:55Speaker 5: and kind of throws her off. That's real. Sometimes in
- 3:58Speaker 5: relationship you want your guy to be all fawning a
- 3:59Speaker 5: little you. And he made the you know, not help
- 4:02Speaker 5: when her gets up out of the truck or load
- 4:04Speaker 5: the stuff up. He'll do stuff like that. But guess
- 4:06Speaker 5: what real relationships are like that. And then we got
- 4:09Speaker 5: the conversation with her daughter, and she didn't know that
- 4:12Speaker 5: her daughter got married. It seemed like the cameras weren't
- 4:15Speaker 5: even really there. The way her taught her daughter did
- 4:17Speaker 5: not come off as performative. Her daughter came off like
- 4:20Speaker 5: they were caught on camera, not like they were playing
- 4:22Speaker 5: for camera. And I really liked, right, didn't it feel
- 4:25Speaker 5: very very real? And you're like, damn, like y'all talk
- 4:28Speaker 5: about some real shit. I like you doesn't get so
- 4:31Speaker 5: sick and tired. And this is what kind of irritated
- 4:33Speaker 5: me when I was in reality TV. Everybody acts like
- 4:36Speaker 5: their life is always on ten. It's always a designer bag,
- 4:39Speaker 5: it's always a har mess, it's always a top notch event,
- 4:43Speaker 5: it's always Bentley's and rolls voices, and it's not some
- 4:46Speaker 5: days it's real life stuff where you're mad you're Maddia
- 4:50Speaker 5: daughter because she didn't tell you. Sometimes you think her
- 4:51Speaker 5: daughter should share with your mom, her mom. That is
- 4:54Speaker 5: what makes the average person who does not live like
- 4:56Speaker 5: affluent like that want to rock with y'all and want
- 4:59Speaker 5: to care about your People are not going to relate.
- 5:01Speaker 5: And I would tell people on some other reality shows
- 5:03Speaker 5: I worked on, stop you're playing above the heads of
- 5:08Speaker 5: your viewers, Like, you can't assume everyone like that, that's
- 5:11Speaker 5: unrelatable something of that stuff. But that family stuff is
- 5:13Speaker 5: relable to everyone, no matter what income level you're on, Like,
- 5:16Speaker 5: we can relate to that, and I liked it. I
- 5:18Speaker 5: was here for that.
- 5:20Speaker 4: Yeah, speaking further to the relatability piece that I think
- 5:23Speaker 4: is Angela's superpower, right, they said, yeah, she is married
- 5:26Speaker 4: to Charles Oakley, and if you're a person of a
- 5:28Speaker 4: certain age, you know who the fuck Charles Oakley is,
- 5:30Speaker 4: And if you know anything about sports, you do, so
- 5:32Speaker 4: you know what that means for her to be his wife.
- 5:35Speaker 4: And there are she has the quirks that make housewives
- 5:40Speaker 4: memorable and that make us like certain housewives. Prime example,
- 5:43Speaker 4: it's the little shit she does. She was washing her
- 5:46Speaker 4: face and that scene in the bathroom, washing her face
- 5:49Speaker 4: using a little pad or something, and she had her
- 5:52Speaker 4: hair pulled back in a ponytail, like black woman. I
- 5:54Speaker 4: got a mother, and my parents been married fifty five years,
- 5:57Speaker 4: so I've seen my mother do this for a long time,
- 5:59Speaker 4: pull her her hair back in that ponytail to wash
- 6:01Speaker 4: her face and call my daddy while she's in the mirror.
- 6:04Speaker 4: And it was something about the way Angela called Charles's
- 6:07Speaker 4: name twice when she was washing her face. She said Charles,
- 6:10Speaker 4: then she said Charles. She called him like that, the
- 6:13Speaker 4: way she said Charles that second time. That's the kind
- 6:16Speaker 4: of shit that endears us to a housewife. It's very natural,
- 6:20Speaker 4: it's very real, it's very relatable, and I'm enjoying her.
- 6:24Speaker 4: I'm enjoying this season overall. But yes, I agree with
- 6:27Speaker 4: you that Kelly is a great, great force to be
- 6:30Speaker 4: wrecking with on this cast. She is the stuff housewives
- 6:34Speaker 4: are made of. And Angela Oakley is a very nice
- 6:37Speaker 4: surprise for me as a viewer of this show. I'm
- 6:40Speaker 4: thoroughly enjoying the two of them.
- 6:42Speaker 5: Kelly was is fun and at one point I thought
- 6:44Speaker 5: she was gonna be not fake. But like at first
- 6:47Speaker 5: she sat down with Kenya and them with the other girls,
- 6:51Speaker 5: and then when she went with her with Britt, she
- 6:54Speaker 5: definitely showed her like loyalty to Britt, Like how she
- 6:56Speaker 5: walked out of the event, and that's hard to do
- 6:59Speaker 5: because you're knew you kind of want to you kind
- 7:01Speaker 5: of got in with it. The olgi's like you, and
- 7:05Speaker 5: like it showed that she has some about her. She's
- 7:08Speaker 5: not a big stand on what she believes. She's not
- 7:10Speaker 5: kind of going with the flow. She's not flippity floppity.
- 7:14Speaker 5: She's kind of standing on something. And you know, I
- 7:16Speaker 5: did like that about her.
- 7:17Speaker 4: Yeah, I agree, she's short so she'd be looking up,
- 7:20Speaker 4: but she know where she's.
- 7:21Speaker 3: Going and I like that about her. I liked that
- 7:23Speaker 3: about Kelly.
- 7:24Speaker 4: That Kelly she's a good addition to this cast. So
- 7:30Speaker 4: let's shoot the ship, right, since we got to talk
- 7:33Speaker 4: about it, let's talk about it. I I like Bret sorry,
- 7:39Speaker 4: and I feel like me liking.
- 7:41Speaker 2: You have to apologize for that.
- 7:43Speaker 4: I feel like me liking Kenya and wanting Kenya to
- 7:47Speaker 4: still be a part of this cast, and me feeling
- 7:49Speaker 4: like it was wrong that Kenya was released from the
- 7:52Speaker 4: filming schedule.
- 7:54Speaker 3: Me not agreeing with that does not mean.
- 7:56Speaker 4: That I have to not appreciate what I think feel
- 8:00Speaker 4: Britt Edie brings to this cast.
- 8:02Speaker 3: So that's where let's.
- 8:03Speaker 2: Get into it. Let's let's let's have real conversation.
- 8:07Speaker 1: One thing about all of us is we're very honest,
- 8:09Speaker 1: and we don't say the things that are popular for
- 8:13Speaker 1: the court of public opinion to approve us.
- 8:15Speaker 2: Right, we say what's real.
- 8:17Speaker 1: And and one thing about all three of us, y'all, y'all, y'all,
- 8:21Speaker 1: y'all will catch on later that we're right, right, I said,
- 8:26Speaker 1: I said day one. I like Britt, I like Kelly,
- 8:29Speaker 1: I like Angela, I like all the new girls.
- 8:31Speaker 2: I've known Shemir for years. I've always loved her.
- 8:34Speaker 1: The thing with Britt is this, and I do like Britt,
- 8:36Speaker 1: and I still like Britt, and I want to have
- 8:38Speaker 1: real conversation. You can like somebody and it doesn't mean
- 8:41Speaker 1: you dislike the other person, and vice versa. So that's
- 8:44Speaker 1: what it is. I think Britt is a great housewife.
- 8:46Speaker 1: Now with that being said, let's get into the first
- 8:49Speaker 1: scene with Britt, Shemiah, and Angela. I'm going to be
- 8:53Speaker 1: honest how I felt. I felt Britt was performative in
- 8:57Speaker 1: that scene. To me come across authentic.
- 9:02Speaker 2: I didn't. I didn't think. I didn't think the.
- 9:06Speaker 1: I have been doing reality television for twenty years. Okay,
- 9:11Speaker 1: put some respect on my name. I know what the
- 9:13Speaker 1: fuck I'll be talking about. Y'all don't have to agree
- 9:15Speaker 1: with me, and that's fine. I think it's fun with y'all.
- 9:17Speaker 1: Don't because I ain't losing those sleep And if you
- 9:19Speaker 1: and if you are a critical thinker, you would maybe
- 9:23Speaker 1: sometimes be like he knows a little bit more than
- 9:26Speaker 1: the average Joe.
- 9:27Speaker 2: Right.
- 9:28Speaker 1: When I watched that scene between Shamiyah, Angela and Britt,
- 9:32Speaker 1: and I like Britt and I and I think Britt's
- 9:36Speaker 1: a great housewife. Again, it came across performative where I
- 9:41Speaker 1: think Britt came into the scene feeling like she had
- 9:45Speaker 1: to be apologetic. I believe because I've been doing I
- 9:50Speaker 1: know how this should works. I believe some phone calls
- 9:54Speaker 1: were made and Britt was They were like, girl, you boom.
- 9:57Speaker 1: I did, but girl ain't a good look, and I
- 10:00Speaker 1: think she had to Well, I don't want whatever I
- 10:03Speaker 1: felt like Britt was trying to do damage control on
- 10:09Speaker 1: the comment that she made right and I didn't buy it.
- 10:15Speaker 1: I didn't buy it. I didn't buy it in that scene.
- 10:19Speaker 2: I didn't. I didn't did.
- 10:20Speaker 1: I felt nothing and the work of Winnie Houston, I
- 10:24Speaker 1: have nothing. I had nothing to feel. People Bryson fell
- 10:28Speaker 1: the fire, I felt nothing. You know, changing faces stroked
- 10:34Speaker 1: me up, struck me down. I wasn't stroked. I felt nothing.
- 10:37Speaker 1: I didn't feel anything, and I did. I agree with you.
- 10:43Speaker 5: I thought it was very fake and to me, it
- 10:47Speaker 5: made me feel like she's not right for the show. Actually, okay,
- 10:52Speaker 5: like we just praised Kelly for standing on business. If
- 10:55Speaker 5: that's what you felt, then stand on that ship. Yeah
- 10:57Speaker 5: I should have said that about a gun. I'm not
- 11:00Speaker 5: sorry that I checked her because I don't like her.
- 11:02Speaker 5: It's very obvious she is not like Kenya. Since day one,
- 11:05Speaker 5: it's very obvious that she has been looking for a
- 11:07Speaker 5: reason to go off, and at that dinner where Kenya
- 11:10Speaker 5: gave her a hug and patter, which is not that
- 11:12Speaker 5: big of a deal, gave her her excuse to be mad,
- 11:15Speaker 5: be big mad. She got the phone calls because let
- 11:17Speaker 5: me tell you this, well, not tell you this, because
- 11:19Speaker 5: y'all know this. This is episode four, right, four or
- 11:22Speaker 5: five five five, So this may have been shot pretty
- 11:26Speaker 5: early on where you don't really know if you're solidified, right,
- 11:30Speaker 5: because you don't really know. They film you, you're a
- 11:32Speaker 5: new girl, you film, and then later on through filming,
- 11:35Speaker 5: maybe she was still it wasn't all the way locked in, right, Carlos,
- 11:38Speaker 5: Like you can be filming and then it's not locked in.
- 11:41Speaker 5: So maybe it was like she was testing you want
- 11:45Speaker 5: to be kept around here, play the game? Because it
- 11:48Speaker 5: felt how were you so crunked for four episodes and
- 11:51Speaker 5: all of a sudden it all like I've never seen
- 11:54Speaker 5: anyone change their stances. We just talked to Heavenly, what
- 11:58Speaker 5: twelve years they're still doing this same shit. You think
- 12:01Speaker 5: someone in four episodes is really gonna have a change
- 12:03Speaker 5: of heart. No, I think that was job security, which
- 12:07Speaker 5: I get it, Britt. I'm not even like coming for
- 12:09Speaker 5: you on that. I understand it's a great opportunity. You
- 12:11Speaker 5: probably want to be on this for a long time.
- 12:13Speaker 5: You got on. I get why you would do it,
- 12:15Speaker 5: but it definitely felt like like fake, like I'm gonna
- 12:18Speaker 5: say what I gotta say just to get through this,
- 12:21Speaker 5: but I don't feel it.
- 12:22Speaker 3: She could have been slicker about it. You know what
- 12:24Speaker 3: I'm saying.
- 12:24Speaker 4: If you're gonna be performative, put on a show, you
- 12:26Speaker 4: know what I'm saying that, And she did not do that.
- 12:29Speaker 4: I think the body posturing while she was talking, when
- 12:32Speaker 4: she was doing like this and saying I didn't I mean,
- 12:36Speaker 4: you know, all of that shit, it was just it
- 12:38Speaker 4: did not come off as genuine. I agree, And I
- 12:42Speaker 4: feel like, so let's talk about what we were robbed of, right.
- 12:45Speaker 4: I feel like, with Kenya making an exit this early
- 12:48Speaker 4: in the season, we were robbed of an interesting ass.
- 12:51Speaker 5: For you.
- 12:51Speaker 4: Y'all want drama, y'all want fireworks, Let Britt and Kenya
- 12:55Speaker 4: go at it for the whole damn season. I feel
- 12:57Speaker 4: like we were robbed of that, you know what I'm saying.
- 12:59Speaker 4: I feel like brit as a newbie with a unique
- 13:04Speaker 4: vocal tone, fashion sense, and enough balls to get into
- 13:09Speaker 4: a verbal back and forth with somebody. She had the
- 13:11Speaker 4: makings of a likable villain very early on in the season,
- 13:15Speaker 4: and I think she just played her cards wrong. She
- 13:18Speaker 4: came in way too high at the bank and she
- 13:20Speaker 4: was starting shit with Kenya, and she actually gave Kenya
- 13:24Speaker 4: an opportunity to be clean and look good. She gave
- 13:27Speaker 4: Kenya an opportunity to ignore her, not feed into her antics,
- 13:31Speaker 4: turn her back on her, and let her spiral out
- 13:33Speaker 4: of control, which is exactly what happened when she became
- 13:36Speaker 4: Yosemite brit and she started twirling them guns verbally, you
- 13:40Speaker 4: know what I'm saying, with her mouth and talking about
- 13:42Speaker 4: pistols and shit. Kenya made her spiral by ignoring her,
- 13:46Speaker 4: and that was disappointing to me. I'm like, damn, you
- 13:49Speaker 4: a speaking to Whitney Houston. Didn't we almost have it all?
- 13:52Speaker 4: You know what I'm saying. We almost had a good
- 13:55Speaker 4: new motherfucker on the show. Who really could, you know
- 13:58Speaker 4: what I'm saying, be a beautiful and we just arrived
- 14:02Speaker 4: at that, and I think it's going way too far.
- 14:04Speaker 4: I think she was way out of line for talking
- 14:05Speaker 4: about pistols. Kenya was way out of the line for
- 14:08Speaker 4: showing the picture of her allegedly sucking dick. That's ridiculous.
- 14:11Speaker 4: You can't do that, you know what I'm saying.
- 14:13Speaker 3: It's it's just not.
- 14:14Speaker 5: They were both dead ass wrong, and I know you
- 14:17Speaker 5: expect me to sit up hear and just defend Kenya
- 14:19Speaker 5: to that. I don't. I've never been like that. No,
- 14:21Speaker 5: it was definitely wrong. It went too far, and it
- 14:23Speaker 5: took a beautiful moment, like the way it was being
- 14:26Speaker 5: set up and that event. How beautiful was Kenya with
- 14:29Speaker 5: that banging dress?
- 14:31Speaker 1: You were there, I was there, but that so I
- 14:34Speaker 1: want I want to ask you this. That's fine, Claudia,
- 14:42Speaker 1: Claudia if their defense, Claudia.
- 14:45Speaker 5: I left, I left before that happened.
- 14:48Speaker 2: I just off teeth. I do want to ask you this.
- 14:52Speaker 1: You actually were president for Kenya Moore's hairspot grand opening, right,
- 14:59Speaker 1: the celebration of this amazing brick and mortar that.
- 15:03Speaker 2: She was able to do on her own, which is.
- 15:05Speaker 3: A huge feet beautiful.
- 15:07Speaker 2: You were there.
- 15:09Speaker 1: Can you explain to us the temperature in the room
- 15:14Speaker 1: while you were there, because obviously you're not on the show,
- 15:17Speaker 1: so you don't know, like what the dynamics of everybody.
- 15:20Speaker 1: But was the tension in the earth thick? Did you
- 15:23Speaker 1: feel like something weird was going on or what? What
- 15:27Speaker 1: did you see? Now my hindsight, you're like, oh, I
- 15:30Speaker 1: now see why that was the crazy thing.
- 15:33Speaker 5: There was no clues, there was no indication, it was
- 15:36Speaker 5: none of that Kenya was pleasant. I didn't think that
- 15:39Speaker 5: she was like wait for the next ten minutes, like
- 15:42Speaker 5: stick around something, gave no hints, nothing, I mean, it
- 15:48Speaker 5: was like all good vibes like I you know, I
- 15:52Speaker 5: did not see it coming. I did not taken pictures
- 15:54Speaker 5: like by the beautiful flower wall. It was none of that.
- 15:57Speaker 5: So I'm just like when Kenya not let on at
- 16:02Speaker 5: all at all, at all.
- 16:05Speaker 4: I wasn't even there, and I feel the same way.
- 16:07Speaker 4: It's so crazy because and I know I can't be
- 16:09Speaker 4: the only person that feels like this, but it's like
- 16:11Speaker 4: we know what happened, but we still don't know what happened.
- 16:14Speaker 4: It still doesn't make sense to me, Like none of
- 16:16Speaker 4: their few doesn't make sense. I just feel like we
- 16:19Speaker 4: arrived at a conclusion.
- 16:21Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying.
- 16:22Speaker 4: There was no there was no story built to introduce
- 16:27Speaker 4: them as.
- 16:29Speaker 3: Rival.
- 16:30Speaker 4: There's just nothing. I just feel like they had a
- 16:32Speaker 4: bad night and the next thing we know, it's dick
- 16:35Speaker 4: sucking posters. So it just all I don't I just
- 16:38Speaker 4: feel confused.
- 16:39Speaker 3: About the whole situation.
- 16:41Speaker 1: I think Porscha clocked it for listen. For me, I thought, okay,
- 16:44Speaker 1: so we watched the scene where it was Porscha, Kelly
- 16:48Speaker 1: and Kenya, and they were there to support Kenya as
- 16:52Speaker 1: she was testing models for her events. When they started
- 16:57Speaker 1: recapping what was happening with the night before with Angela
- 17:02Speaker 1: Oakley's event, Brit saying the pistol thing, all those things.
- 17:06Speaker 1: I think a lot of people miss Porscha's point, and
- 17:08Speaker 1: I want to address it because I felt like Porscha
- 17:11Speaker 1: clocked it and I don't think people really clocked it
- 17:16Speaker 1: the way Porsche did. And the moment Portia said this,
- 17:19Speaker 1: I was like, finally somebody said it, and I'm paraphrase
- 17:23Speaker 1: what Portia said, So please watch the show. But Porsche
- 17:25Speaker 1: pretty much intimated that. Look, Brient watched the show. Brent
- 17:32Speaker 1: knows who Kenya Moore is. Kenya Moore is one of
- 17:35Speaker 1: the most iconic, legendary reality starts in the history of
- 17:38Speaker 1: the world. Right, And it's okay to have preconceived notions
- 17:44Speaker 1: going into the show. And the reason why I said
- 17:46Speaker 1: it's okay, and hear me out when I say this,
- 17:49Speaker 1: it's hard to walk into a show that you've watched
- 17:55Speaker 1: without having it and anybody who says that if you
- 17:59Speaker 1: haven't watched it, that's one thing Brit coming into this show.
- 18:03Speaker 1: She clearly knew who Kenya Moore was, and we all
- 18:06Speaker 1: have seen Kenya Moore clips Portia clocked it where she's like,
- 18:10Speaker 1: I think Brit was like, I know what Kenya gives
- 18:15Speaker 1: and that's not about to be me. And that's why
- 18:18Speaker 1: I was saying last week, Brit Britt. In my opinion,
- 18:23Speaker 1: I felt like Brett did not want to be the
- 18:26Speaker 1: girl that Kenyamore read.
- 18:28Speaker 2: Right, and she wanted to make that very clear.
- 18:33Speaker 1: Kenya Moore clocked it last week, and that's why she said,
- 18:36Speaker 1: you want a moment, because the reason why you're confused, Dustine,
- 18:40Speaker 1: the reason why Claudia is confused, the reason why the
- 18:42Speaker 1: six thousand people in this room are confused, and the
- 18:45Speaker 1: reason why some of the audience is confused is because
- 18:48Speaker 1: it went from zero to sixty in a matter of
- 18:50Speaker 1: two seconds. And then Claudia clocked it earlier, which is
- 18:55Speaker 1: like to be on a ten and to go down
- 18:58Speaker 1: to a zero. I know how this works. And sometimes
- 19:02Speaker 1: Claudia am I lying when when some of these girls
- 19:06Speaker 1: are on the ten, it takes a week to get
- 19:08Speaker 1: down to an eight and and and I think that's
- 19:11Speaker 1: why it was hard for people to digest it, and
- 19:15Speaker 1: I think that's the reason why we're so confused. But
- 19:18Speaker 1: I think Portia clocked it, and I wanted to say that,
- 19:21Speaker 1: and look, I think Kenya, in my opinion, I think
- 19:24Speaker 1: Kenya knew that. Okay, this girl wants to establish her
- 19:34Speaker 1: position on this show.
- 19:35Speaker 2: And there's nothing wrong with that, right, Claudia.
- 19:40Speaker 1: Is right in some cases, not all, butun in some
- 19:43Speaker 1: you are kind of auditioning for a few months.
- 19:47Speaker 2: Kenya Moore has said it publicly that she was.
- 19:51Speaker 1: Season five, she was on the she was she was
- 19:54Speaker 1: filming without being a housewife, and she was like, Okay,
- 19:58Speaker 1: now look, if y'all want me cold, I don't about
- 20:00Speaker 1: it here. So I think you guys have to look
- 20:03Speaker 1: at things like that. And that's why I want to
- 20:05Speaker 1: least give brit some grace too, in terms of you
- 20:11Speaker 1: have this big opportunity and you want to be able
- 20:16Speaker 1: to solidify your position.
- 20:18Speaker 5: But that was like such a trash way of doing it.
- 20:22Speaker 5: Like you know what, I don't like. I don't like
- 20:25Speaker 5: false confidence because leading up to that, you that bitch,
- 20:28Speaker 5: you got the husband, you got this, you the baddie
- 20:30Speaker 5: that's been doing videos since your high school, you got
- 20:33Speaker 5: this that and the third, if you have confidence in
- 20:35Speaker 5: yourself and you know you're dope, right, you shouldn't have
- 20:38Speaker 5: to do all of that. You shouldn't have to like
- 20:40Speaker 5: fight with this girl like that. Like Kenya, listen, Keny
- 20:44Speaker 5: can be a lot of things, and she can run
- 20:45Speaker 5: people the wrong way, and she can talk herself, and
- 20:47Speaker 5: she can easily get under your skin. You know why.
- 20:48Speaker 5: She's very smart and she's very patient, and she usually
- 20:52Speaker 5: doesn't make these kind of miscalculations. That's why I'm actually
- 20:55Speaker 5: kind of shocked that she did this. So it's like
- 20:59Speaker 5: maybe she felt like, you know, amongst the new girls,
- 21:01Speaker 5: like damn, I'm with the new batch of girls, but
- 21:03Speaker 5: they just as bad, if not more, like and bad
- 21:06Speaker 5: meaning good, you know what I mean. So let me
- 21:08Speaker 5: just go, let me just go tip a tap with
- 21:10Speaker 5: the queen. Maybe she thought she was like, you know,
- 21:13Speaker 5: you know, people think that I came for Nani and
- 21:15Speaker 5: that was what got me on, and I really didn't.
- 21:16Speaker 5: It truly was in the moment, and that was an
- 21:18Speaker 5: organic moment, and it going there with a preconceived notion
- 21:21Speaker 5: or an agenda. It definitely felt from early on that
- 21:24Speaker 5: she had an agenda, and that's what makes a whack.
- 21:27Speaker 5: Going in with an agenda to me is just as
- 21:29Speaker 5: whack is having a pre rehearsed read that is like,
- 21:33Speaker 5: that is whack. That's like I'm gonna wait for the
- 21:36Speaker 5: right moment to drop this, this, this, this, this, No,
- 21:39Speaker 5: if you really are that bitch, that girl, you should
- 21:43Speaker 5: be that confident that I'm smart, I'm quick, and i
- 21:45Speaker 5: know how to clock shit and I'll be able to
- 21:47Speaker 5: respond appropriately with the right amount of force in the moment,
- 21:50Speaker 5: and that's what makes you a good housewife. Now you
- 21:52Speaker 5: look unhinged. Now, you we don't even feel like I mean, yeah,
- 21:56Speaker 5: it was fucked up what happened with Kenya, what Kenya
- 21:58Speaker 5: did to brit but we I just don't really felt
- 22:01Speaker 5: bad for either one of them now because they both
- 22:04Speaker 5: kind of did some shit that was like too far.
- 22:07Speaker 4: They did, And you're one hundred percent right about Britt
- 22:11Speaker 4: just doing things for the sake of doing them, and
- 22:13Speaker 4: it actually her behavior at the dinner at the bank
- 22:15Speaker 4: contradicted what she expressed to Angela when they went for
- 22:19Speaker 4: that walk, and she told her that, you know, I
- 22:21Speaker 4: feel a certain energy from Kenya and basically, if she
- 22:24Speaker 4: fuck with me again, I'm on her ass right. You
- 22:26Speaker 4: can feel that way, but it doesn't mean you have
- 22:28Speaker 4: to seek or pursue or look for an argument or
- 22:31Speaker 4: a confrontation. You just wait until, hopefully it doesn't ever
- 22:35Speaker 4: present itself. But you wait until someone has, you know,
- 22:38Speaker 4: offended you in that way and you checked their ass.
- 22:41Speaker 4: Kenya had done nothing to her, She said nothing offensive
- 22:43Speaker 4: to her at that dinner. She was actually very pleasant
- 22:46Speaker 4: with her, and so BRIT's behavior did appear unhensed and
- 22:50Speaker 4: out of place and motivated by a desire to not
- 22:54Speaker 4: get punked.
- 22:55Speaker 3: You ain't gonna get me. I ain't gonna be the one,
- 22:56Speaker 3: you know.
- 22:57Speaker 4: It felt like that, and that's never entertaining. When you
- 22:59Speaker 4: could have just sat there, been cool with all these ladies.
- 23:01Speaker 4: Look beautiful, she's gorgeous. She could have just looked beautiful.
- 23:04Speaker 4: And if Kenya decided did present that energy, then it
- 23:09Speaker 4: would have made sense to the viewers for her to
- 23:11Speaker 4: meet her at that level and let the chips fall
- 23:13Speaker 4: where they may. But Britt was on one, she was
- 23:16Speaker 4: turned up, and unfortunately this is where it ended. I
- 23:19Speaker 4: don't think Kenya should have been suspended. I don't think
- 23:22Speaker 4: what she did warranted being removed from the cast. Now,
- 23:25Speaker 4: I wasn't sucking dick on the posters, so maybe it's
- 23:27Speaker 4: not up to me, you know what I'm saying to
- 23:30Speaker 4: say that, But I don't feel like what she did.
- 23:33Speaker 3: We didn't see the picture as viewers.
- 23:34Speaker 4: The people that were there saw it, So I'm sure
- 23:37Speaker 4: that was terrible for her, and I can't speak to
- 23:39Speaker 4: what that means to her. But as far as the
- 23:41Speaker 4: shit that these women have done to each other on
- 23:43Speaker 4: this show up until now, a lot of other terrible
- 23:46Speaker 4: things have happened and we haven't seen people lose their
- 23:49Speaker 4: jobs over it. So I felt like that was a
- 23:51Speaker 4: little misaligned. And I hope to see Kenya hopefully at
- 23:54Speaker 4: the reunion and back on the cast next season so
- 23:57Speaker 4: we can watch the story forward unplayed. Don't get to
- 24:00Speaker 4: see what happened, We don't get to see them figure
- 24:02Speaker 4: it out. We didn't get to see either one of
- 24:05Speaker 4: them be accountable for their actions for real, for real.
- 24:07Speaker 4: So hopefully we get to see Kenya at the reunion
- 24:10Speaker 4: and we get to watch their story play out fully
- 24:13Speaker 4: next season. That's my hope.
- 24:15Speaker 5: Can I give advice to anyone that wants to do television?
- 24:18Speaker 5: I know I'm not like I was a one season person,
- 24:21Speaker 5: but I don't care about that. I know television, and
- 24:24Speaker 5: I know human nature, and I know I'm intelligent. No
- 24:28Speaker 5: housewife has ever become iconic from anything physical or threatening someone.
- 24:37Speaker 5: You are iconic when you have some measure of restraint,
- 24:40Speaker 5: when you murder with your words, by looking fabulous, not
- 24:44Speaker 5: cussing someone out and being rah rah and go and
- 24:47Speaker 5: going low. When you can look gorgeous, wealthy, affluent, classy,
- 24:53Speaker 5: but say some shit that gets to your soul and
- 24:55Speaker 5: gets you together, those are iconic. Or when you're fun,
- 24:59Speaker 5: like we're still saying leaks the ghetto, like we still
- 25:01Speaker 5: saying that, we still talk about white refrigerators, we still
- 25:04Speaker 5: talk about a lot of the other reason that people
- 25:06Speaker 5: have said, like who said that or whatever? Like you
- 25:09Speaker 5: know all those things, you know what I mean, Like
- 25:12Speaker 5: because those were like those are memorable moments. We don't
- 25:15Speaker 5: talk about horse or dragon Can you buy her hair?
- 25:18Speaker 5: Because that was violent. That was a dark spot in
- 25:20Speaker 5: the history of house spots. We're not gonna talk about
- 25:23Speaker 5: Britney much longer after this, after we get through the season,
- 25:26Speaker 5: it's gonna be a dark spot on the history of
- 25:28Speaker 5: the franchise. It's going to be the cute moments that
- 25:31Speaker 5: we can repeat amongst our friends in our group chats.
- 25:34Speaker 5: That's what makes you an iconic housewife. We want to
- 25:37Speaker 5: have fun and be able to repeat some of your lines.
- 25:39Speaker 5: Ain't no one want to repeat where's my pistol? Wear
- 25:42Speaker 5: my whips? And no one's gonna want to repeat putting
- 25:44Speaker 5: someone's dick sucking pitches on the poster either, So I'm
- 25:46Speaker 5: gonna keep it fair. I wish they would get back
- 25:48Speaker 5: to knowing, like the things that are memorable are when
- 25:51Speaker 5: they have they lasted upon you, but they also exercise
- 25:56Speaker 5: some restraint when you know, a bitch could whoop you ass,
- 25:58Speaker 5: but she whipped your ass with her words.
- 26:00Speaker 4: I also didn't understand how somebody got to if somebody
- 26:03Speaker 4: said they're gonna shoot you, wouldn't posting pictures of them
- 26:06Speaker 4: sucking dick make them want to shoot you some more?
- 26:08Speaker 4: You know what I'm saying, I don't. I just don't
- 26:10Speaker 4: understand how that was. That was the defense move, you
- 26:13Speaker 4: know what I'm saying. I just I don't know.
- 26:15Speaker 3: I just think it was. It just didn't make sense
- 26:17Speaker 3: to me, And I.
- 26:18Speaker 2: Mean, listen, it's the reason why.
- 26:20Speaker 1: As I was watching the episode and I wanted to
- 26:22Speaker 1: watch it twice.
- 26:23Speaker 2: And you know, when the when the event.
- 26:26Speaker 1: Started, you're seeing like the spotous, gorgeous, right beautiful, and
- 26:32Speaker 1: it looks beautiful.
- 26:34Speaker 2: And one of the things that.
- 26:37Speaker 1: I even took like, wow, this is great is the
- 26:40Speaker 1: fact that everybody did show up to support her, because
- 26:44Speaker 1: you know, a lot of those things don't happen. So
- 26:47Speaker 1: we see Kelly and Britt arrive together. I'm gonna start
- 26:52Speaker 1: by saying this, I'm gonna.
- 26:53Speaker 2: Finish it later.
- 26:55Speaker 1: In my opinion, Kelly was the MVP in this episode
- 27:00Speaker 1: code because that's the type of friend you want, you know,
- 27:05Speaker 1: like like Kelly, it's some listen the movie, there's something
- 27:11Speaker 1: about Mary.
- 27:11Speaker 2: There is something.
- 27:12Speaker 1: About Kelly where I just feel like she's so natural
- 27:16Speaker 1: and everything Kelly has done so far this season as
- 27:19Speaker 1: a human being when it comes to my friends, I
- 27:22Speaker 1: would have done the same thing in terms of like
- 27:24Speaker 1: having their back and being supportive when you felt like
- 27:27Speaker 1: your friend was being was being read, whatever the case
- 27:31Speaker 1: may be.
- 27:31Speaker 2: So anyway, have to.
- 27:33Speaker 1: Say, looking at Kingya's event, a lot of the comments
- 27:36Speaker 1: are saying this that it's a shame that it happened
- 27:40Speaker 1: at her event due to the celebratory nature of what
- 27:45Speaker 1: the accomplishment means. You've said it, Claudia said it, I've
- 27:49Speaker 1: said it. There's nobody saying what Kenya did was right.
- 27:53Speaker 1: We all collectively have said it last week, and we'll
- 27:56Speaker 1: say it again this week, and I'll say it. What
- 27:59Speaker 1: Kenya did was not okay. It was wrong. It was
- 28:04Speaker 1: unfortunate right. Two wrongs do not make a right. I
- 28:08Speaker 1: said what brit said is wrong. What Kenya did is wrong.
- 28:12Speaker 1: Two wrongs do not make a right. I wish Kenya
- 28:17Speaker 1: would have given her a read that would have, like
- 28:20Speaker 1: Claudia said, solidified the force multiplier that she is right
- 28:27Speaker 1: in a perfect world. I think that should have taken place.
- 28:31Speaker 1: Kenya Moore herself has said on tammeron Hall that.
- 28:34Speaker 2: She was wrong.
- 28:36Speaker 1: I don't see why people listen if the person who
- 28:39Speaker 1: did it is saying I was wrong and I should
- 28:42Speaker 1: have done something better. I don't think it's I don't
- 28:46Speaker 1: think it's bad for anyone else to be like, we
- 28:49Speaker 1: agree with you. It was a bad thing to do.
- 28:53Speaker 1: Based on what occurred and based on what led up
- 28:57Speaker 1: to it, it's evident that when it comes to King's
- 29:02Speaker 1: placed on the show, she is somebody that is irreplaceable.
- 29:08Speaker 1: When it comes to what the network decided to do.
- 29:11Speaker 1: I tell people this all the time. No one believes
- 29:13Speaker 1: me because it is what it is. The dismissal of
- 29:18Speaker 1: anybody is at the hands of the network. We don't
- 29:21Speaker 1: have Carlos King producers, production companies, We don't have a
- 29:26Speaker 1: say on the power to hi or fire anybody. Everything
- 29:30Speaker 1: is at the hands We can give our opinion with anything,
- 29:36Speaker 1: right Claudia. I've said this story before. I fought for Clauda.
- 29:39Speaker 2: I'm like, I want her in the name.
- 29:42Speaker 1: Ultimately, it's not my decision, do you know what I mean?
- 29:45Speaker 1: But I can have a point of view because I'm
- 29:47Speaker 1: respected in this game. But at the end of the day,
- 29:51Speaker 1: the network and they said it on the title card.
- 29:54Speaker 1: They and it's say the production company and a name producers.
- 29:59Speaker 1: It says the network decided to not move forward with
- 30:04Speaker 1: continuing the filming with Kenya.
- 30:07Speaker 2: It was their decision.
- 30:09Speaker 1: I don't have a say in it. That's how the
- 30:13Speaker 1: business does work, and you guys are seeing that again
- 30:16Speaker 1: what I say is true. But anyways, when it comes
- 30:20Speaker 1: to but I want to ask the two of you this,
- 30:24Speaker 1: when it comes to Kenya's actions, Listen let's have a
- 30:27Speaker 1: real conversation. Based on what I've seen on social media,
- 30:31Speaker 1: it is split think she deserved to be removed of
- 30:36Speaker 1: her duties. There's fifty percent who believed she shouldn't have been.
- 30:41Speaker 1: Where do the two of you lie within that? Do
- 30:45Speaker 1: you think that should have been the case?
- 30:48Speaker 5: Thank you, sweethearts. Do I think she had been she'd
- 30:51Speaker 5: been taken off?
- 30:52Speaker 3: Now?
- 30:52Speaker 5: I don't because this is what I'm gonna say about
- 30:57Speaker 5: Kenya when I look at her history on the franchise,
- 31:01Speaker 5: Kenya has been at the receiving end of a lot
- 31:03Speaker 5: of foul shit that other people were kicked off for.
- 31:06Speaker 5: Kenya has every right to be a little paranoid about
- 31:09Speaker 5: threats of violence when she was beat up on the
- 31:10Speaker 5: show and no one really did nothing, And you know,
- 31:15Speaker 5: I know people are watching tonight, and I'm just gonna
- 31:17Speaker 5: that's what I think. Like if I it's much like
- 31:20Speaker 5: I feel like Mimi feels like she's like, when am
- 31:22Speaker 5: I gonna win on this show? When am I going
- 31:24Speaker 5: to get the edit? When am I going to get
- 31:25Speaker 5: the protection? When am I when is it going to
- 31:27Speaker 5: be like protect Kenya? So she's had a deal with
- 31:30Speaker 5: a lot of stuff that has come to lean on
- 31:32Speaker 5: her doorstep and deal with it and play good and
- 31:36Speaker 5: still play along with everybody else. And she did, and
- 31:38Speaker 5: she did. Now you can make it argument and say
- 31:41Speaker 5: she deserves some of that smoke for her mouth. I
- 31:44Speaker 5: said earlier, it should never resort to violence on This
- 31:46Speaker 5: is the Housewives. It is not really love and hip hop,
- 31:48Speaker 5: This is not Zeus. So you should be able to
- 31:51Speaker 5: have a talk the biggest shit on the show and
- 31:53Speaker 5: not get you asked beat on the show, and not
- 31:56Speaker 5: have someone threatened you with a weapon. So I will
- 31:58Speaker 5: say she's been on the receiving end and she's had
- 32:00Speaker 5: to deal with a lot. Now, if you don't like her,
- 32:02Speaker 5: you're gonna say, well, it's a bit deserved it because
- 32:04Speaker 5: she runs her mouth. If you do have some kind
- 32:06Speaker 5: of grace or you can say, think of things like
- 32:09Speaker 5: and take it, take it personal feelings out out of it.
- 32:12Speaker 5: You could say, you know what, I could see how
- 32:15Speaker 5: she might snap eventually, Keenya has been dragged and embarrassed
- 32:19Speaker 5: in a in a gown in a reunion in front
- 32:22Speaker 5: of millions of people, and how to keep quiet about
- 32:25Speaker 5: it for a very long time. So with that thing said,
- 32:28Speaker 5: I could see why she would overreact to a talk
- 32:31Speaker 5: of a gun, threats of a gun, all that kind
- 32:34Speaker 5: of stuff. I can see how that would be. Doesn't
- 32:36Speaker 5: make it right, no one, No, the I hate for
- 32:42Speaker 5: her that is brilliant and smart as calculating how she is.
- 32:45Speaker 5: That she let a newbie get her jammed up where
- 32:48Speaker 5: she lost her position and the newbie still on the show.
- 32:50Speaker 5: That's the tragic the end, that that that opening in
- 32:54Speaker 5: her salon was so beautiful and now it's forever marred
- 32:58Speaker 5: with that night and it's not going to help your business.
- 33:02Speaker 5: Like I felt when when Brittany came up to her,
- 33:05Speaker 5: even if the apology to me was kind of fake, right,
- 33:07Speaker 5: it was like scrambling grasping for straw at straw to
- 33:12Speaker 5: keep her job. I thought for a moment like, damn, Ken,
- 33:15Speaker 5: you could go that was the moment. You could go
- 33:17Speaker 5: left right now and say you know what, let me
- 33:19Speaker 5: abort my plan, or let me go right and just
- 33:22Speaker 5: stay fucking and do it anyways. And when she stuck
- 33:24Speaker 5: with it, I'm like, damn it. I would rather have
- 33:26Speaker 5: seen her, like Carlos said, get her together verbally. It
- 33:29Speaker 5: would have been such an iconic season with those two
- 33:32Speaker 5: going back and forth. If no more gun threats were made,
- 33:35Speaker 5: you know what I mean, it would have been we
- 33:36Speaker 5: got deprived, we lost seeing an epic battle, and Brittany
- 33:40Speaker 5: would have been elevated to not Kenya's level, but she
- 33:42Speaker 5: would have been elevated. And I think now she kind
- 33:44Speaker 5: of goes down, no pun intended, no pun intended, but
- 33:48Speaker 5: her value goes down on the show.
- 33:52Speaker 2: Chow, we are just getting started.
- 34:05Speaker 1: This is reality with the King, and I'm Carlos King.
- 34:09Speaker 1: Let's get back into the show.
- 34:13Speaker 4: I thought that, okay, So I think a couple of
- 34:15Speaker 4: things happened right. Number one, britt was absolutely doing damage control,
- 34:19Speaker 4: and that's why those apologies, the conversation in Smia's home,
- 34:23Speaker 4: none of that, you know, read as believable to me,
- 34:26Speaker 4: even some of the way that she was speaking with
- 34:29Speaker 4: Kelly when they were in that sprinter ride, which I
- 34:31Speaker 4: loved the fact that Kelly picked her up in that
- 34:33Speaker 4: sprinter and they had champagne. We're getting back to the
- 34:35Speaker 4: things that make Real Housewives of Atlanta feel like real
- 34:38Speaker 4: Housewives of Atlanta. But I didn't believe Bridg's disposition the
- 34:41Speaker 4: car either. To me, she was obviously playing to trying
- 34:47Speaker 4: to create a certain perception of herself and trying to
- 34:50Speaker 4: appear remorseful, you know what I mean, But it just
- 34:52Speaker 4: wasn't authentic. I also think this. I keep hearing a
- 34:55Speaker 4: conversation about the fact that people feel like Kenya may
- 34:59Speaker 4: have missed opportunity to make the focus of the night
- 35:03Speaker 4: her salon and the opening of it. I think that
- 35:05Speaker 4: Kenya was trying to do just that by pulling that
- 35:08Speaker 4: stunt at the opening of her hairspot. I think she
- 35:12Speaker 4: presumed and assumed that that was going to be an
- 35:14Speaker 4: iconic Housewives of of Atlanta moment that would be for
- 35:18Speaker 4: remembered forever when she got britz ass. But it backfired
- 35:22Speaker 4: in the worst possible way. It took the focus completely
- 35:26Speaker 4: off of her salon and on the stupid shit that
- 35:28Speaker 4: she did in response to Britz Antics.
- 35:31Speaker 3: And it was just sad to see. I like both
- 35:33Speaker 3: of these ladies.
- 35:34Speaker 4: Kenya Moore is, without a doubt, a big part and
- 35:40Speaker 4: a big reason that we and watch and talk about
- 35:42Speaker 4: this show to this day. She came on that show
- 35:44Speaker 4: in season five and changed it forever. We can't argue
- 35:47Speaker 4: about that. I didn't want to see her go out
- 35:50Speaker 4: this way.
- 35:51Speaker 3: My hope. We can't do nothing we can't go back and.
- 35:53Speaker 4: Put her in the damn episodes, right, So my hope
- 35:55Speaker 4: is that listen her and Bravo the powers that we
- 35:58Speaker 4: can have some sort of converse sation. She can end
- 36:01Speaker 4: up at the reunion and back on the cast, receiving
- 36:03Speaker 4: season seventeen, so we can see this story play out.
- 36:06Speaker 4: But to me, it's not helping matters when you're doing
- 36:09Speaker 4: things like reposting an Ai picture of you with tape
- 36:12Speaker 4: over your mouth that says justice for Kenya. That's not helping.
- 36:16Speaker 4: That's not helping. You've been in the business too long, Kenya.
- 36:19Speaker 4: You know how this works. Get like Nini said, get
- 36:22Speaker 4: your team to help you out. Get the people on
- 36:24Speaker 4: the phone that need to be on the phone to
- 36:26Speaker 4: have a proper negotiation and a proper conversation with the
- 36:30Speaker 4: powers that be to bring you back to this cast
- 36:32Speaker 4: where you belong. Because I feel the absence of her
- 36:35Speaker 4: in these episodes. I feel the absence of her confessional scenes.
- 36:39Speaker 4: I feel the absence of scenes of her daughter, beautiful daughter,
- 36:42Speaker 4: running around that house. We haven't seen the pools she
- 36:44Speaker 4: put in our house. We ain't seen shit, you know
- 36:46Speaker 4: what I'm saying. I can feel the void of her
- 36:50Speaker 4: participation in the show, and it sucks. I wanted to
- 36:53Speaker 4: see her and Porschau be friends. I wanted to see that.
- 36:57Speaker 1: To pick it back off of that, when I saw
- 36:59Speaker 1: her in port with Kelly, you know film as they
- 37:04Speaker 1: were testing out the models. I love that scene the most.
- 37:09Speaker 1: Their friendship there, They're the beginning of their friendship. That
- 37:13Speaker 1: seemed to be so natural and they and I think
- 37:15Speaker 1: they both understood, like how magical that the two women
- 37:20Speaker 1: who came in season five are not the anchors of
- 37:24Speaker 1: this show. Like that's something, you know what I'm saying,
- 37:27Speaker 1: Like like, if you look at sports, hey, Claudia, if
- 37:30Speaker 1: you look at sports, it's sort of like the rookies
- 37:34Speaker 1: having an opportunity to be in the starting five and
- 37:37Speaker 1: leading the team, like and and I felt that those
- 37:41Speaker 1: two women understood that assignment and was like, we're gonna
- 37:45Speaker 1: get along as long as we can because we know
- 37:48Speaker 1: how this works.
- 37:49Speaker 2: But I agree with you. I was looking forward to that.
- 37:54Speaker 1: I do want to ask the two of you this
- 37:56Speaker 1: when before I get to that, I at least want
- 37:59Speaker 1: to have I want to lighten the mood a little bit.
- 38:04Speaker 1: Can we talk about my favorite RuPaul drag Race moment
- 38:07Speaker 1: that Kenya gave with yeah the dust, I mean, look,
- 38:14Speaker 1: let me light up the mood up a little bit.
- 38:17Speaker 1: I rewound that five times because I felt like Kenya
- 38:23Speaker 1: was troiling her bathroom and it was like it was
- 38:27Speaker 1: to me, it was it was so housewife like, noted.
- 38:33Speaker 1: It was just like I mean coded, it was housewife
- 38:35Speaker 1: codd what she did with the with the dust, Like
- 38:39Speaker 1: I love that. I love the quote of Megan Thiss Stallion.
- 38:43Speaker 1: I'm that bitch still that bitch, will forever be that bitch,
- 38:46Speaker 1: Like I wish it was like just that because to me,
- 38:50Speaker 1: it made me laugh and it just made me love
- 38:52Speaker 1: her even more.
- 38:53Speaker 5: And that's why she k like that's the kind of
- 38:55Speaker 5: stuff that we missed about the Housewives, Like more of that,
- 38:57Speaker 5: less of this ghetto shit that has been happening. And
- 39:00Speaker 5: I want to say this about the friendship between Porscha
- 39:02Speaker 5: and Kenya. See that feels real because it took years
- 39:08Speaker 5: to get here, you know, basically, Britt try to force
- 39:12Speaker 5: that like moment, like try to get the whole you know,
- 39:15Speaker 5: one eighty in one episode. No, like there's been like
- 39:19Speaker 5: I remember being at Kenya's baby shower and Porscha was
- 39:22Speaker 5: there and we took a picture of all of us
- 39:23Speaker 5: and I was like, damn, okay, that was the beginning.
- 39:25Speaker 5: And it wasn't like great, great, but it was better
- 39:28Speaker 5: and over the years. That is a real relationship. That's
- 39:32Speaker 5: what makes reality shows good. When you have people that
- 39:35Speaker 5: like you can show an evolution. They were at this point,
- 39:38Speaker 5: they got to this point, and then they're slowly getting back.
- 39:41Speaker 5: That's what happens in real life. And real life, you
- 39:44Speaker 5: don't go to one lunch with someone and in your
- 39:45Speaker 5: back best friends again because it's cameras on you, or
- 39:48Speaker 5: because you want Andy Cohen to keep you on the series,
- 39:51Speaker 5: Like get the fuck out of here with that, Like
- 39:52Speaker 5: that was fake and she should have known better. And
- 39:55Speaker 5: and really, if she really wanted to apologize to Kenya,
- 39:58Speaker 5: I mean, she could have like told her purduce. She
- 40:00Speaker 5: could have said, hey, let me let me call her
- 40:02Speaker 5: and be like, listen, before we go on camera, I
- 40:05Speaker 5: want you know that this is real and I'm not
- 40:06Speaker 5: doing it from a moment because Keny's gonna clock that
- 40:08Speaker 5: right away. Keny's gonna clock that you're trying to have
- 40:11Speaker 5: this fake mama with me. It ain't real. I probably
- 40:13Speaker 5: haven't heard from you since the gun thing, you probably
- 40:16Speaker 5: did not try to reach out at all. So you're
- 40:18Speaker 5: gonna do this at my event, so I can see
- 40:20Speaker 5: why can you be like f that because I already
- 40:22Speaker 5: got something for you now saying it was right because
- 40:24Speaker 5: it still wasn't. But you got to just think about like,
- 40:26Speaker 5: she knows the game, she's been there for a long time,
- 40:29Speaker 5: and Britt, I don't know who gave her the advice
- 40:32Speaker 5: that that would be a good idea. But if you
- 40:34Speaker 5: pissed some one off and the first time they see
- 40:35Speaker 5: it was on camera, they know you're just trying to
- 40:37Speaker 5: control the scene. You're trying to get the scene, trying
- 40:39Speaker 5: to get that moment.
- 40:40Speaker 3: Yeah, I agree, it does.
- 40:43Speaker 4: It makes no I'm not even gonna offer no commentary
- 40:46Speaker 4: on the antics of it all.
- 40:47Speaker 3: I'll just say feel fake.
- 40:49Speaker 5: It's like your man just cheat on you. But it
- 40:51Speaker 5: comes home with like some flowers and you're like, no,
- 40:53Speaker 5: it's gonna take some more than that.
- 40:55Speaker 3: And that's what I mean. We were robbed of all
- 40:58Speaker 3: of that.
- 40:58Speaker 4: We ain't seen none of that, no kind of We
- 41:00Speaker 4: didn't see them talk through anything or work through anything,
- 41:02Speaker 4: and it just feels very interrupted. As a viewer, right,
- 41:07Speaker 4: it feels very like our viewering experience has been disrupted
- 41:11Speaker 4: by Kenya's exit, as opposed to it making sense as
- 41:14Speaker 4: to why she's off the show. Even with the view
- 41:18Speaker 4: into the salon escapade that we saw, and even with
- 41:22Speaker 4: the apology tour that britt attempted to start, it still
- 41:25Speaker 4: feels incomplete. So again, we can't do nothing about the past.
- 41:29Speaker 4: The show's in the can already and being there currently.
- 41:32Speaker 4: I just hope that they bring Kenya to this reunion
- 41:36Speaker 4: on the stage with the ladies in person, face to face,
- 41:39Speaker 4: so that we can see this group of women talk
- 41:41Speaker 4: that moment out. I really hope we get to see that.
- 41:44Speaker 4: And I want Kenya back on the show. And what
- 41:47Speaker 4: I want Kenya back on the cast full time.
- 41:49Speaker 5: I do Brittany should Brittany should have not done that
- 41:52Speaker 5: at Kenya's event, just like Kenya should have not done
- 41:55Speaker 5: that at Hurry been sabotaging herself. But britt you should
- 41:58Speaker 5: have reached out to her and had a one on
- 42:00Speaker 5: one lunch if you may be supervised with Angela or
- 42:03Speaker 5: someone that you trust and as a mediator, but that
- 42:06Speaker 5: would show that listen, I really or again a side
- 42:08Speaker 5: phone conversation I really mean this. I'm really sorry. I
- 42:12Speaker 5: don't want to make this look like just a scene,
- 42:14Speaker 5: just something where she could you know, she'd be able
- 42:16Speaker 5: to tell she since here. But once she got to
- 42:18Speaker 5: her event, Keny was paying her desk, she was like whatever,
- 42:20Speaker 5: ignored the hell out of her because she had a
- 42:22Speaker 5: mindset that she's about to ruin this girl. And then
- 42:25Speaker 5: that's what happened at ruining herself unfortunately.
- 42:27Speaker 2: Yeah. Well, and that's the thing.
- 42:28Speaker 1: So and I want to get into that, because what
- 42:30Speaker 1: no one is talking about that we will is the
- 42:34Speaker 1: fact that not thinking all spiritual all Mother Night Live.
- 42:39Speaker 1: But y'all know me, but God is in everything. And
- 42:45Speaker 1: I was listen, and I'm being very honest, I say this,
- 42:49Speaker 1: thank God Britt wasn't there. And I do mean that,
- 42:55Speaker 1: the fact that she decided to leave based on Kenya
- 42:58Speaker 1: paying her dust. I was happy that Brent was not
- 43:02Speaker 1: subjected to seeing that, because I would not have wanted
- 43:08Speaker 1: that for her, for you know, to deal with with
- 43:12Speaker 1: seeing that.
- 43:13Speaker 3: You know, I'm happy.
- 43:15Speaker 1: I'm happy she wasn't able to see it herself. And
- 43:18Speaker 1: and and again I'm I'm grateful and thankful that Brent
- 43:23Speaker 1: had the sense to be like she's paying me dust
- 43:25Speaker 1: let me leave, right. So I wanted to address that,
- 43:28Speaker 1: because God forbid, she was there. I think I think
- 43:32Speaker 1: this would be I'll just say this, This probably would
- 43:35Speaker 1: have been a very different conversation. And I'll now now
- 43:39Speaker 1: the other ladies were there, and I want to talk
- 43:41Speaker 1: about this with you, guys.
- 43:45Speaker 2: I want a friend like Kelly.
- 43:47Speaker 1: I want a friend who was a friend to my
- 43:50Speaker 1: faith and behind my back, you know, And I want
- 43:53Speaker 1: I want, I want to really focus on the decision
- 43:56Speaker 1: that Kelly made. Kelly has no issues with Kenya. Kelly
- 44:01Speaker 1: was even there while Kenya was auditioning folks. Kelly saw
- 44:06Speaker 1: one poster board and she said, I'm out. I'm I'm
- 44:08Speaker 1: not I'm not doing this. I will I'm not doing this.
- 44:12Speaker 1: This is my girl. We came here together. You want
- 44:17Speaker 1: a friend like Kelly. Now, unfortunately Kelly and are friends today,
- 44:22Speaker 1: which we'll see what happens with that. But you want
- 44:26Speaker 1: a friend like Kelly who did that so she left.
- 44:29Speaker 2: The other ladies were watching what was going on.
- 44:35Speaker 1: I want to talk about the ladies reaction to it,
- 44:38Speaker 1: because I know all well, I don't know all those girls.
- 44:41Speaker 1: I know Portia and Cynthia so let me just be
- 44:43Speaker 1: And yeah, I know those two.
- 44:45Speaker 2: I know Porscha and Cynthia.
- 44:47Speaker 1: Well, and I could tell that in their minds they
- 44:51Speaker 1: were like, what is what is? What is this about
- 44:57Speaker 1: to be? And Clauda, you weren't there at that moment.
- 45:00Speaker 1: But when it came to the ladies' reactions, they all
- 45:04Speaker 1: decided to leave and Cynthia stayed back. And I want
- 45:07Speaker 1: to get into Cynthia because she's not only a friend
- 45:09Speaker 1: of mine, she's the friends of y'all two. Cynthia was
- 45:12Speaker 1: the only person who came up to Kenyon said baby,
- 45:16Speaker 1: that ain't.
- 45:16Speaker 2: It like You're better than this? I love you.
- 45:19Speaker 1: I'll clark you tomorrow. But what did y'all think about
- 45:22Speaker 1: the girl's reactions to this?
- 45:26Speaker 5: They were right, they were right. You know, it's good
- 45:31Speaker 5: to have friends that are ride to die, but are
- 45:34Speaker 5: they really your friend if they don't tell you when
- 45:35Speaker 5: you're wrong? You know what I mean? And I it
- 45:40Speaker 5: wasn't a good look for Kenya and we know she
- 45:42Speaker 5: can do so much better. I will say on a
- 45:45Speaker 5: technical part of this, as far as the whole revenge point,
- 45:48Speaker 5: is it true that those images were images that were
- 45:50Speaker 5: already online on a movie that Britt made. Is that true?
- 45:54Speaker 1: That's all a last I'll be honest with you. I
- 45:57Speaker 1: don't know, and I've been very honest. I am a journalist,
- 46:00Speaker 1: Hey Portsche, I am a journalist. I am not spending
- 46:03Speaker 1: my time looking for I don't know. I think at
- 46:09Speaker 1: the end of the day, what's wrong is wrong. But
- 46:11Speaker 1: I don't Carlos King, I have no idea.
- 46:16Speaker 5: I always want to think about what was in someone's mind.
- 46:18Speaker 5: Because Kenye's smart, right, so for to like just find
- 46:22Speaker 5: some pitches that were private to post some I don't
- 46:25Speaker 5: think she'd be dumb enough to do that. I think
- 46:27Speaker 5: they from what I've been hearing, I could be wrong.
- 46:30Speaker 5: Those were images that were on the Internet already and
- 46:33Speaker 5: she blew them up. And I'm thinking that's why maybe
- 46:35Speaker 5: she thought, well, they're already out there. I'm not really
- 46:37Speaker 5: committing that crime. But it's not being viewed like that.
- 46:40Speaker 5: It's being viewed as it is revenge porn.
- 46:42Speaker 2: Well, that's the thing. I think.
- 46:43Speaker 1: It's one of those things where there's so many definitions.
- 46:48Speaker 1: I'm not a lawyer.
- 46:50Speaker 2: I don't have squire behind my last name.
- 46:53Speaker 1: There's things that we all are discovering.
- 46:57Speaker 2: It's like, oh, that's illegal. That's legal.
- 46:58Speaker 1: I I'm just saying I don't know. I don't know
- 47:02Speaker 1: the definition, but I do want to say this. I
- 47:05Speaker 1: always go back to what we saw. Yeah, the network
- 47:09Speaker 1: did not say the RP word in terms of her dismissal.
- 47:14Speaker 1: They didn't say that, right, The network, from my understanding,
- 47:18Speaker 1: as of today at eight fifty one Eastern Stentar time,
- 47:22Speaker 1: have not used that words as a cost for her dismissal.
- 47:25Speaker 1: So that's that's And I'm not saying it is it.
- 47:28Speaker 1: I'm not saying it Isn't it. All I'm saying is
- 47:30Speaker 1: based on what we saw as viewers, those words have
- 47:34Speaker 1: not been used.
- 47:36Speaker 5: Would it make a difference to it? Does it make
- 47:37Speaker 5: a difference And I'm asking you to your opinion on this.
- 47:41Speaker 5: If these are images that britt already had online as
- 47:44Speaker 5: a cam girl, like if she was doing web that
- 47:47Speaker 5: web point stuff and they were out there and ken
- 47:49Speaker 5: you made copiism to embarrass her, is that that's not
- 47:52Speaker 5: revenge point? Is that revenge porn? Do y'all know?
- 47:54Speaker 2: I don't. I don't. I don't know the law.
- 47:56Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm unclear with the law.
- 47:58Speaker 4: And I actually don't even think that it was necessarily
- 48:01Speaker 4: the issue. I think that whether it classified underneath that,
- 48:06Speaker 4: underneath that, or a lot right, I think the issue
- 48:09Speaker 4: is more so the violation of whatever code of conduct
- 48:12Speaker 4: exists when it comes to nudity, shit like that, whatever.
- 48:16Speaker 3: You know.
- 48:17Speaker 4: Her behavior violated some sort of code of conduct and
- 48:20Speaker 4: they chose and like they said, they used. Speaking of
- 48:22Speaker 4: the language used, they said, due to Kenya's behavior.
- 48:26Speaker 3: You know what I mean.
- 48:27Speaker 1: I'm not gonna say because at the end of the day,
- 48:28Speaker 1: the thing is this, and we all said this earlier.
- 48:31Speaker 1: Wrong is wrong, right, regardless of the definition of word was.
- 48:35Speaker 2: I think wrong is wrong.
- 48:36Speaker 1: I think at the end of the day, to show
- 48:39Speaker 1: it is just wrong. And again it's something that Kenya
- 48:44Speaker 1: has admitted to it being wrong. But to answer your
- 48:47Speaker 1: question was the valid question. I don't know the definition
- 48:51Speaker 1: of what was going on, but wrong is wrong and
- 48:54Speaker 1: that's that. But I do want to say this part
- 48:58Speaker 1: about it too. Cynthia Belly is getting dragged on social media,
- 49:04Speaker 1: and I do want to address that you two are
- 49:06Speaker 1: friends with her.
- 49:07Speaker 2: I'm friends with her as well.
- 49:10Speaker 1: There is a discourse happening on social media as relates
- 49:14Speaker 1: to Cynthia Bailey's comments, not only on the show, but
- 49:21Speaker 1: what she has said in a recent interview, Kenya Moore
- 49:26Speaker 1: and synth and Belly have not.
- 49:27Speaker 2: Spoken since the incident.
- 49:30Speaker 1: They have not spoken, and that's what Cynthia Bailly has said.
- 49:34Speaker 1: Cynthia in some cases being called a good friend that
- 49:38Speaker 1: a good friend tells you to your face, like girl,
- 49:40Speaker 1: I love you.
- 49:40Speaker 2: This ain't it. Some people are saying Syntha's a flip flopper.
- 49:43Speaker 1: They're they're they're using clips of Ninnis saying Cynthia blows
- 49:47Speaker 1: with the wind, blows right. These are things people are
- 49:49Speaker 1: saying online as two people who know synth and Billy
- 49:52Speaker 1: very well, like I do.
- 49:54Speaker 2: What are your thoughts on that?
- 49:55Speaker 1: Do you think Cynthia Belly handled this the way as
- 50:00Speaker 1: a friend that you would want her to.
- 50:02Speaker 4: I was at Watch What Happens Live with Cynthia when
- 50:05Speaker 4: she taped that episode. I heard everything she said about
- 50:10Speaker 4: her current state of her friendship with Kenya. Cynthia expressed
- 50:13Speaker 4: how much love she had for Kenya. She did make
- 50:16Speaker 4: note of the fact that they haven't spoken since the incident,
- 50:19Speaker 4: even though she has reached out several times to Kenya,
- 50:21Speaker 4: and she also respected Kenya's space with that she got
- 50:24Speaker 4: her grace. She said, Listen, Kenya's got a lot going on,
- 50:27Speaker 4: and I understand that she maybe needs some space right now.
- 50:30Speaker 4: She knows I love her and I'm here whenever she
- 50:32Speaker 4: wants to talk. So she didn't go on television saying
- 50:36Speaker 4: I ain't talked to Kenya. I don't fuck with Kenya,
- 50:38Speaker 4: that I was fucked up what she did. No, she
- 50:39Speaker 4: was a Cynthia. We've always seen her be all that shit.
- 50:43Speaker 4: That conversation that people are having about Cynthia flip flopping again.
- 50:46Speaker 3: You can't start a story in the middle.
- 50:49Speaker 4: Let's not go back into the Housewives cannon and see
- 50:52Speaker 4: all the times that Kenya tried to embarrass Cynthia on television,
- 50:57Speaker 4: rolling the car window up in her face and shit,
- 50:59Speaker 4: when Cynthia was trying to talk to her in that
- 51:00Speaker 4: parking lot, antagonizing her and going way too far, cracking jokes.
- 51:05Speaker 4: When they did dinner in the sky and she was
- 51:07Speaker 4: questioning Cynthia Badger and heard them questions about her wine knowledge.
- 51:11Speaker 4: When she was opening up the Bailey the wine cellar,
- 51:16Speaker 4: the Bailey wine cellar. Let's not forget when Kenya almost
- 51:19Speaker 4: spilled the beans and then played coy, did I do
- 51:22Speaker 4: that and put her finger in the corner of her
- 51:24Speaker 4: mouth when she alluded to and hinted at Cynthia's ex
- 51:28Speaker 4: husband Mike proposing to her on camera. This is not
- 51:31Speaker 4: a situation where Cynthia is just not being a good
- 51:34Speaker 4: friend to Kenya. She was a great friend to Kenya.
- 51:36Speaker 4: She kept it real in her face and told her
- 51:38Speaker 4: in the moment, I love you. That was fucked up.
- 51:40Speaker 4: I got your back, and I'm gonna talk to you later.
- 51:42Speaker 4: She has never trashed Kenya behind this. She said she
- 51:46Speaker 4: thought Kenya was above that and if that equates to
- 51:48Speaker 4: a bad friend and some people, then so be it.
- 51:50Speaker 4: But it don't equate to being a bad friend to me.
- 51:52Speaker 4: And I'm biased as fuck because I love Cynthia in
- 51:55Speaker 4: real life, So I'm not gonna you know, make no,
- 51:59Speaker 4: I'm gonna be clear about that. I'm on Cynthia's side.
- 52:02Speaker 4: It's personal for me because I know she's a good person,
- 52:05Speaker 4: she's a good friend. So I'm not even gonna play
- 52:07Speaker 4: them games. It is what it is like. I love
- 52:10Speaker 4: that's my friend. I do the same for any of
- 52:13Speaker 4: my friends.
- 52:13Speaker 2: So Dustin is so Detroit. I love him.
- 52:18Speaker 1: Listen, Claudia, because a lot of people don't say it.
- 52:21Speaker 1: I love it, dust is like, and at the end
- 52:23Speaker 1: of the day, she's my friend, and I stay by
- 52:25Speaker 1: like I love that dust it is. I will say
- 52:28Speaker 1: this in real life, Dustin is a great friend, and
- 52:32Speaker 1: you would want a friend like Dustin. Dustin rise for
- 52:35Speaker 1: his friend. And Dustin will also tell you like that,
- 52:40Speaker 1: ain't it that? Ain't it?
- 52:42Speaker 2: So we'll go ahead.
- 52:43Speaker 5: Claudia, I kind of don't really know. I feel like
- 52:47Speaker 5: they've been off since they did Ultimate Girls Trip and
- 52:49Speaker 5: I heard a little bit from Cynthia a little bit
- 52:51Speaker 5: of Kenya, and I just don't know where it started.
- 52:53Speaker 5: Because depending on who you talk to, you're gonna get
- 52:55Speaker 5: a kind of a slightly different version of events, right
- 52:59Speaker 5: and so, and that's another show I didn't watch. I'm
- 53:05Speaker 5: just going by my personal conversations with them, like they've
- 53:08Speaker 5: been off for a while. You know, It's like, depending
- 53:12Speaker 5: on whose perspective is from, you can say that's wrong.
- 53:15Speaker 5: You're you know, when you're talking to your friend and
- 53:16Speaker 5: they tell you what someone did to them and you're like, man,
- 53:19Speaker 5: fuck that bitch, Like, yeah, they they did your dirty.
- 53:21Speaker 5: But then you talk to the other person and they
- 53:23Speaker 5: tell you, well, this is what I felt went wrong.
- 53:25Speaker 5: So it's like, damn, So I really don't know, but
- 53:28Speaker 5: I do like, no matter what if if Cynthia really
- 53:31Speaker 5: feels this way about Kenya or not publicly, she's she
- 53:34Speaker 5: is like presenting like you know, it's like she's not
- 53:38Speaker 5: trying to like throw her on the bus, like she's like,
- 53:40Speaker 5: I don't like it, but she still said she did
- 53:43Speaker 5: still still speak some positivity into Kenya, and I don't
- 53:46Speaker 5: think they've been in a positive place for a long time,
- 53:48Speaker 5: is what I'm saying. So it's like I respect people
- 53:53Speaker 5: that listen. Y'all know we ain't been cool for years,
- 53:55Speaker 5: for real, for real, for real, but we're not giving
- 53:58Speaker 5: that to all y'all. We can have when we're right,
- 54:00Speaker 5: you can talk. And I don't know why or if
- 54:02Speaker 5: you know Kenya has been avoiding Cynthia's calls or what
- 54:05Speaker 5: that's about and why, I am curious to know that,
- 54:08Speaker 5: but I do believe that as it all goes back
- 54:10Speaker 5: to Ultimate Girls Trip, I think their friendship to me
- 54:14Speaker 5: was repiably damaged on that show and it's never gonna
- 54:17Speaker 5: be the same as it was before. And I think
- 54:20Speaker 5: Cynthia is keeping a cue And still you know Cynthia's
- 54:23Speaker 5: is still gonna, you know, say positive things, especially on
- 54:26Speaker 5: the show to her, But I do I did catch
- 54:29Speaker 5: when that online. It's like they you know, they're trying
- 54:32Speaker 5: to throw it, make it like that Cynthia flip flop.
- 54:34Speaker 5: She's not really having her friend's back. You can have
- 54:37Speaker 5: your friends back and still tell them they're wrong. That
- 54:40Speaker 5: is definitely possible. It's hard, but it is definitely, you know.
- 54:44Speaker 5: I don't know, I hate it because they were like
- 54:46Speaker 5: when I was around them before, they were so like
- 54:49Speaker 5: they really did fuck with each other. But I think
- 54:51Speaker 5: I think too much has happened between them since.
- 54:53Speaker 1: Yeah, and I do think it's I did watch AUTI
- 54:56Speaker 1: Mcgirl's Trip. It was the first installment of it, and
- 55:00Speaker 1: their friendship was tested, and they even said it it
- 55:03Speaker 1: was tested during that time, and I don't think things
- 55:06Speaker 1: were the same with that.
- 55:07Speaker 2: But before I let you guys go, I.
- 55:09Speaker 1: Do want to read Kenya Moore's final statement and to
- 55:15Speaker 1: get her thoughts on this. So Kenya posted this on
- 55:19Speaker 1: our Instagram with the montage video of her at her hairspot.
- 55:25Speaker 1: Kenya said, I quote, you have been my besties for
- 55:28Speaker 1: the last twelve years and I love and appreciate you
- 55:32Speaker 1: so much. Last year, you cried with me when all
- 55:35Speaker 1: of my hard work from the salon was cut by
- 55:38Speaker 1: production and none of it was shown.
- 55:40Speaker 2: I want to thank all.
- 55:41Speaker 1: Of my friends who showed up for me and who
- 55:43Speaker 1: support me on a regular basis, who loved me down.
- 55:47Speaker 1: Miss Lawrence, thank you for gracing us with your presence.
- 55:50Speaker 1: You're a star. I'll hope to turn our segment to
- 55:52Speaker 1: a TV show. God willing. She thanked her event planner
- 55:56Speaker 1: Events by Monet. She thanked the gorgeous models. She also
- 56:01Speaker 1: said to the cast of Real Housepots of Atlanta Season sixteen,
- 56:06Speaker 1: I wish you all an incredible season. To my friends
- 56:10Speaker 1: and family, thanks for loving me, flaws and awe. Thank
- 56:14Speaker 1: you to all the studying women who have patronized Kenya
- 56:17Speaker 1: moore hairspot. I love making you look beautiful. Love and
- 56:20Speaker 1: blessings to all of you.
- 56:24Speaker 3: That's good. That's good.
- 56:25Speaker 4: I like the piece that she added in about wishing
- 56:28Speaker 4: to cast a successful season. You know, that's the kind
- 56:31Speaker 4: of energy you want to see from Kenya again. I'm
- 56:34Speaker 4: a person who think is fucked up that she was released.
- 56:36Speaker 4: I think she deserves to be there and needs to
- 56:38Speaker 4: be there to complete the story. So I don't think
- 56:41Speaker 4: she deserves to be released from the series, and I
- 56:43Speaker 4: wanted to see her make her way back, hopefully that's
- 56:46Speaker 4: my hope.
- 56:48Speaker 5: I think this statement sounds like someone that knows she's
- 56:50Speaker 5: never coming back. Honestly, that's what that sounds like. That
- 56:55Speaker 5: she sounds to me defeated. It sounds like I'm trying
- 56:58Speaker 5: to put on a strong front like okay, but you know,
- 57:02Speaker 5: I wish all the best, like the link. The language,
- 57:05Speaker 5: to me like it sounds like a goodbye, like a
- 57:07Speaker 5: final goodbye. That doesn't sound like, you know, Kenya leaves
- 57:10Speaker 5: little breck harms like you know, you never know. There's
- 57:13Speaker 5: none of that in the statement. It does feel like
- 57:15Speaker 5: it's a rap forever. And but Kenya does have the
- 57:18Speaker 5: personality to do something else on her own, another show
- 57:21Speaker 5: on her own. I hope she does do that. But
- 57:24Speaker 5: it does sound like it's we're not getting her back,
- 57:26Speaker 5: and I do feel like, you know, we're gonna be disappointed.
- 57:29Speaker 5: I'll be I will, I will eat my words if
- 57:32Speaker 5: I'm wrong, you know, But I do feel like this
- 57:35Speaker 5: is a good vibe, and I don't It is kind
- 57:38Speaker 5: of like weird to me that the one that talked
- 57:40Speaker 5: about the gun didn't really get held accountable. Yes, Kenya
- 57:44Speaker 5: should have been held accountable, but one side of accountability
- 57:47Speaker 5: is not really accountability, is favoritism.
- 57:49Speaker 4: Do you think it feel final because it was her
- 57:52Speaker 4: last episode this season?
- 57:53Speaker 3: Though?
- 57:53Speaker 4: Because I sense the I sensed the final nature of
- 57:56Speaker 4: the tone of the message. But in my mind it
- 57:59Speaker 4: maybe you can help me with how I'm looking at this,
- 58:01Speaker 4: but I don't. It didn't feel like I'm not on
- 58:04Speaker 4: this show. Maybe the for twelve seasons part or whatever,
- 58:08Speaker 4: but I just felt like that was a message to
- 58:11Speaker 4: close off her participation in this season. But you're saying
- 58:14Speaker 4: you feel like it means she's done with the show forever.
- 58:17Speaker 4: That's the feeling you got.
- 58:19Speaker 5: Yeah, that's what I just my opinion. I'm wrong once
- 58:22Speaker 5: or twice a year, so you know, I'm just say
- 58:24Speaker 5: I don't know, you know, but I feel like twice
- 58:28Speaker 5: a year it does feel like again, I just think
- 58:32Speaker 5: it's bad, a bad message to like put out there
- 58:38Speaker 5: from production, Like certain things, the things that seem to
- 58:41Speaker 5: not get people suspended or fired gets allowed. That to
- 58:45Speaker 5: me is scarier. Yeah, I can take that how you
- 58:49Speaker 5: want to, but you know, not to take away I
- 58:53Speaker 5: know some people like you're defending her. I'm not defending Kenya.
- 58:56Speaker 5: I've said it multiple times. Is wrong. She ruined her
- 58:59Speaker 5: own moment. It hurt herself. Why make your moment about
- 59:03Speaker 5: your salon about this bitch so you didn't even know her.
- 59:05Speaker 5: And I'm not saying bitch like I'm palling bitch. I'm
- 59:07Speaker 5: just saying how we talk sometimes. You know, it took
- 59:09Speaker 5: away from your moment, like if I'm getting an award
- 59:12Speaker 5: for something, I'm not going to give someone that I
- 59:14Speaker 5: don't like my moment when it should all be about
- 59:17Speaker 5: celebrating me. And I think that was a huge miscalculation,
- 59:20Speaker 5: like y'all, Like y'all said, she probably thought that was
- 59:22Speaker 5: gonna jump off the salon and make oh this is
- 59:24Speaker 5: what I happened, that epic scene happened, and it didn't
- 59:26Speaker 5: work out like that for and I think I do
- 59:27Speaker 5: think it was a miscalculation. Think it was wrong, It
- 59:30Speaker 5: wasn't good, and Kenya, it's smarter than that. That's why
- 59:33Speaker 5: I'm still surprised that she did this. She could have
- 59:35Speaker 5: done this so many other ways, but hey, we don't know.
- 59:37Speaker 5: And we also and the reason why I brought up
- 59:40Speaker 5: her other issues on the show, like her being attacked
- 59:42Speaker 5: and all the other things and stuff she had to
- 59:44Speaker 5: live with for years. You hiring men to be on
- 59:46Speaker 5: the show. She's been humiliated for many, many years on
- 59:48Speaker 5: the show. Okay, So I guess that's why sometimes I
- 59:51Speaker 5: give it a little bit like I'm not making excuses.
- 59:54Speaker 5: I just like to get into people's mind, like what
- 59:56Speaker 5: would make someone or how would this make me feel
- 59:59Speaker 5: if I was that person? So you know what I'm saying, like,
- 1:00:03Speaker 5: and please don't mistaken that for me making excuses for people.
- 1:00:06Speaker 5: I just am into the psychology of why people do
- 1:00:09Speaker 5: and what headspace they are in to make them do
- 1:00:13Speaker 5: these things. It's easy to sit on our couches eating
- 1:00:16Speaker 5: out popcorn. Never in these situations say well she should
- 1:00:19Speaker 5: have done this, and well you haven't been there where
- 1:00:21Speaker 5: you talk. You be vulnerable. A bunch of mother people
- 1:00:25Speaker 5: clown you for that. You be vulnerable your love life.
- 1:00:27Speaker 5: You marry this guy, you get clown for that. You
- 1:00:29Speaker 5: get punished by the network for not sharing your marriage.
- 1:00:32Speaker 5: You get physically assaulted on a stage, they don't suspend
- 1:00:34Speaker 5: the other girl, and you get clown and you get
- 1:00:36Speaker 5: to ask beat on TV, like many, many, many, things
- 1:00:39Speaker 5: over many many years, she's had to eat, right, Does
- 1:00:43Speaker 5: that justifyer doing this someone else? No, But I'm trying
- 1:00:45Speaker 5: to get her mindset.
- 1:00:46Speaker 4: Of course, she says, somebody else eating on these posters.
- 1:00:51Speaker 4: She said, somebody else is gonna be eating on these posters.
- 1:00:55Speaker 5: I'm just thinking that she snapped. Did she say, you
- 1:00:57Speaker 5: know what, that's it? I don't know, but I'm trying
- 1:00:59Speaker 5: to get into the headspace the networks dig. What're you saying?
- 1:01:05Speaker 3: She was like, I'm tired of having to set the
- 1:01:06Speaker 3: networks dig. Then it hit her like, right.
- 1:01:10Speaker 5: She had to that wasn't in the moment. Things She
- 1:01:12Speaker 5: had to find those pictures, get an investigative print those
- 1:01:15Speaker 5: pictures up, pick the size of the poster board, the thickness,
- 1:01:20Speaker 5: all those things, and present them. And then she still
- 1:01:22Speaker 5: had many chances to get off the off ramp to
- 1:01:25Speaker 5: a board mission and she didn't. So I want to know.
- 1:01:27Speaker 5: I'm curious as to the mindset of what made her
- 1:01:30Speaker 5: finally say that's it. I'm going to go to this
- 1:01:32Speaker 5: level and be extreme.
- 1:01:34Speaker 2: Yeah, And that's the reason why I listen.
- 1:01:36Speaker 1: I don't know what Kenya Plans are doing in terms
- 1:01:39Speaker 1: of doing interviews or anything. After this, but I will
- 1:01:42Speaker 1: implore people to watch her Tameron Hall interview because she
- 1:01:47Speaker 1: did talk about a lot of this to Claudia. And
- 1:01:50Speaker 1: I think the other thing too, is it was at
- 1:01:53Speaker 1: that at the moment of her Tamra Hall interview, it
- 1:01:56Speaker 1: was it was still fresh.
- 1:01:59Speaker 2: I don't know how many months afterwards.
- 1:02:00Speaker 1: It was a few months afterwards, but it was still
- 1:02:03Speaker 1: fresh for her, And I think that's why you should
- 1:02:06Speaker 1: watch it. Not you, but like people should watch it
- 1:02:09Speaker 1: because it will give you some ideas of how she feels.
- 1:02:13Speaker 1: But look, I think at the end of the day,
- 1:02:16Speaker 1: Kenya Moore is meant to be on somebody's television screen,
- 1:02:20Speaker 1: whether it's continue on with the show or or doing
- 1:02:23Speaker 1: other things. This is not the last you'll see of
- 1:02:26Speaker 1: Kenya more.
- 1:02:29Speaker 5: Are you gonna interview her again? Like since like after.
- 1:02:31Speaker 4: This, she needs to come on here with us, so
- 1:02:36Speaker 4: to bring her ass on next Monday.
- 1:02:39Speaker 5: The interview you're not telling us and that's gonna be
- 1:02:41Speaker 5: the one you drop next Monday.
- 1:02:43Speaker 1: Oh, first of all, I'm dropping one to I'm dropping
- 1:02:46Speaker 1: an interview tomorrow any more.

- 1:02:56Speaker 1: You guys are so funny anyways, Claudia, dust is anything
- 1:03:00Speaker 1: else you want to talk about your fans in terms
- 1:03:03Speaker 1: of supporting you stuff you have going on?
