0:03
Speaker 1: A little bit about everything and everybody.
0:05
Speaker 2: You know, if you don't lie about that, right, you
0:08
Speaker 2: can't even hot.
0:09
Speaker 1: Hey, y'all, what's up.
0:10
Speaker 3: It's Laura la Rosa and this is another episode of
0:14
Speaker 3: the Latest with Laura La Rosa. This is your daily
0:17
Speaker 3: tag on all things pop culture, entertainment, news, and all
0:20
Speaker 3: of the conversations that shake the room.
0:22
Speaker 1: Baby.
0:23
Speaker 3: So we always kick off the show with behind the
0:26
Speaker 3: Scenes of the Grind checking. My low riders who have
0:28
Speaker 3: been here and are not new here, y'all know, this
0:31
Speaker 3: is how we do for everyone who was just tuning
0:33
Speaker 3: in for the very first time on this episode, the
0:35
Speaker 3: behind the scenes of the Grind checking is where we
0:37
Speaker 3: really take a second to see how we're doing, like
0:41
Speaker 3: really check in on how we're feeling. Because when you're bobbing, weaving,
0:45
Speaker 3: move and shake in, grinding, hustling, whatever you call it,
0:49
Speaker 3: you don't take the time to do that pretty often.
0:51
Speaker 3: I know I don't, so I built it into the
0:53
Speaker 3: show so that I could intentionally take the time to
0:56
Speaker 3: do that daily. So let's get into it. So checking
1:01
Speaker 3: in behind the Scenes of the Grind today, I am
1:05
Speaker 3: ending the week feeling like I'm finally in control of
1:09
Speaker 3: my week A lot of times. Oh, I think the
1:14
Speaker 3: top of the week has the energy of like go
1:15
Speaker 3: go go go go. Oh my god, I my god,
1:17
Speaker 3: everything so urgent, everything so urgent, and toward the end
1:19
Speaker 3: of the week it's like, good, get to it when
1:21
Speaker 3: I can, and I'll prioritize, I'll figure it out. But
1:25
Speaker 3: I think this week with starting on that high and
1:29
Speaker 3: you know, things coming down toward the end of the week,
1:31
Speaker 3: I always try to look back on whatever feelings it
1:35
Speaker 3: is that I'm feeling about anxiousness or not being in
1:39
Speaker 3: control of things and figure out, like why I was
1:41
Speaker 3: feeling that way, so that the next time that that
1:43
Speaker 3: feeling comes up, I know how to combat it. This week,
1:48
Speaker 3: I think I felt like that number one because of.
1:50
Speaker 1: A lack of sleep. But I've been doing really good.
1:53
Speaker 3: Okay, I scheduled nap times all this week, and I
1:55
Speaker 3: have been honoring myself with making sure I stick to
1:58
Speaker 3: my naptime. But also I think too, I've been letting
2:04
Speaker 3: the thought of like Fomo creep in. And I think
2:09
Speaker 3: Fomo was his fear of missing out. People only talk
2:11
Speaker 3: about it in a sense of like partying or like
2:15
Speaker 3: not being able to or you know, not being able
2:18
Speaker 3: to do fun things because of like responsibilities or like adulthood,
2:22
Speaker 3: or whatever FOMO creeps into in the care career building stage.
2:28
Speaker 3: And I think this week, for me, the fomo was
2:32
Speaker 3: the fear of not completing something by a certain time
2:36
Speaker 3: on other people's timelines. I learned this week that I
2:40
Speaker 3: had to get better at setting boundaries about what is
2:43
Speaker 3: actually feasible for me, no matter how urgent it is
2:45
Speaker 3: to another person.
2:47
Speaker 1: Let me explain.
2:49
Speaker 3: So, there are things that will come up, whether it's
2:51
Speaker 3: task or it's asked that people have of you, whatever
2:57
Speaker 3: the case may be. Something can be super earth in
3:00
Speaker 3: a person's life because it just is in the priority
3:04
Speaker 3: of their life, their day, what's important to them, what
3:07
Speaker 3: they have to do and or not or lack thereof.
3:11
Speaker 1: Right, But it might not fit.
3:13
Speaker 3: Into your list of to dos and things and priorities
3:17
Speaker 3: the same way. Not that it's not important, not that
3:20
Speaker 3: it shouldn't get done, not that you won't get it done,
3:23
Speaker 3: but there may be other things that are more important
3:26
Speaker 3: that you have to prioritize in order to make sure
3:28
Speaker 3: that you as a whole are okay. Somebody told me
3:32
Speaker 3: today that I have to be selfish in this time
3:35
Speaker 3: period of my life. And I think coming to grips
3:40
Speaker 3: with that has been tough for me because just the
3:45
Speaker 3: word selfish itself feels so so dark, It feels so lonely,
3:53
Speaker 3: it feels so vindictive and manipulative, Like it just doesn't
3:57
Speaker 3: feel like you're a good person when you're saying, hey,
3:59
Speaker 3: I'm selfish. But I think as you're building something and
4:03
Speaker 3: as you're establishing yourself within any new space arena, career, shoot,
4:09
Speaker 3: if you a new mother or new father, whatever the
4:11
Speaker 3: case may be, that's one boundary that you should set
4:17
Speaker 3: as you're even learning how to set boundaries is the
4:20
Speaker 3: ability to be a little bit selfish about yourself. So
4:22
Speaker 3: this week I came out of this week understanding that
4:24
Speaker 3: I I'm not okay with being selfish about me and
4:30
Speaker 3: to some extent on one hand, when it comes to
4:32
Speaker 3: just being morally like a good person and being able
4:34
Speaker 3: to like look out for the people who love me,
4:36
Speaker 3: look out for the people who I feel like, even
4:38
Speaker 3: if it's not a love thing, right like, even if
4:40
Speaker 3: it's not family, friends, whatever, just you know, do good
4:43
Speaker 3: to people that are doing good to you. And honestly,
4:46
Speaker 3: like I've gotten to a point where now I feel like,
4:48
Speaker 3: all right, do good by the people who aren't good
4:50
Speaker 3: to you as well, because you're rewarded for that, and
4:54
Speaker 3: not even about the reward. But I don't know, I'm
4:56
Speaker 3: you just I'm just in such a blessed space right
4:59
Speaker 3: now that that's that's just like where my mind is.
5:03
Speaker 3: But I don't think on the other hand, being selfish
5:08
Speaker 3: has to feel like the opposite of everything I just mentioned.
5:11
Speaker 3: I think that being selfish for yourself in terms of
5:15
Speaker 3: like understanding that, like it's okay to say no. It's
5:18
Speaker 3: okay to say not right now. It's okay to say
5:21
Speaker 3: I'm not capable of having this conversation. It's okay to say, hey,
5:24
Speaker 3: I think this relationship needs to end. It's okay to say, hey,
5:26
Speaker 3: I think this business idea, this interview, this story, like
5:31
Speaker 3: all these It's okay to say no, it's not for me.
5:34
Speaker 3: I've never been really good at that to a certain extent.
5:38
Speaker 3: Like for me, it's like it has to get to
5:40
Speaker 3: the extreme, and it's crazy, like to even hear myself
5:43
Speaker 3: say this, because I'm really blunt with certain things. I'm
5:46
Speaker 3: very like if I don't.
5:48
Speaker 1: Like it, I don't like it. If I don't wanna
5:49
Speaker 1: do it.
5:49
Speaker 3: I don't wanna do it, but for some reason, when
5:52
Speaker 3: it comes to just certain things, career is one of them.
5:57
Speaker 3: I think it's like a scarcity mindset, but it's also
6:00
Speaker 3: like a if I'm being honest, I think it gets
6:03
Speaker 3: a little people pleasy too, where I don't set the
6:07
Speaker 3: boundaries that I need to set, and then I find
6:09
Speaker 3: myself stretched really thin, I find myself backed against the wall.
6:15
Speaker 3: I find myself mad at people because of the position
6:19
Speaker 3: that I'm allowing them to put me in just a
6:23
Speaker 3: ton of different things. So that was like an honest
6:25
Speaker 3: revelation this week as I was trying to catch up
6:28
Speaker 3: with my week and ketch up with all the things.
6:29
Speaker 3: And you know, we added Netflix Live into our daily
6:34
Speaker 3: broadcast for the Breakfast Club, So with that comes an
6:37
Speaker 3: extra meeting a day, and we're people to talk too
6:40
Speaker 3: throughout the day when I'm already burnt out, you know,
6:43
Speaker 3: to a certain extent, because we talk all day long.
6:46
Speaker 3: So yeah, it's like a push, you know how You're
6:50
Speaker 3: like you're trudging up that heel and it's like, once
6:52
Speaker 3: you get over the hump, you're gonna be good.
6:53
Speaker 1: It's gonna be smooth. Selling.
6:54
Speaker 3: I'm not I'm not over my hump yet, but I'm
6:57
Speaker 3: still trudging up the heel. So it's like I'm stepping
6:59
Speaker 3: over all these rocks as I'm trudging, and I'm learning
7:01
Speaker 3: things as I'm stepping. And this week I feel like
7:04
Speaker 3: I learned physically because I was so drained physically, and
7:08
Speaker 3: like you know, I was pushing through and performance at
7:14
Speaker 3: work and in personal life because I wasn't doing well
7:17
Speaker 3: at being selfish.
7:21
Speaker 2: Period.
7:22
Speaker 1: And that's that's where I'm at and that's what I've
7:23
Speaker 1: realized this week.
7:24
Speaker 3: So hope you guys are taken, you know, as a
7:27
Speaker 3: week winds down, I hope you guys are taken some
7:28
Speaker 3: time to just think about, like, you know, what this
7:30
Speaker 3: week has meant to you, what has made you feel
7:32
Speaker 3: why you felt that way, and use it to move forward,
7:35
Speaker 3: because I'm already putting some things into position as I
7:39
Speaker 3: think about, all right, like what do I need to
7:42
Speaker 3: be more selfish about? That's going to be like my
7:44
Speaker 3: next journal entries, like what do I need to be
7:46
Speaker 3: more selfish about? And I was going to write what
7:49
Speaker 3: do I need to be more selfish about? And then
7:51
Speaker 3: write why, but I don't even want to write why
7:54
Speaker 3: because I don't want to have to explain it. I'm
7:57
Speaker 3: going to write what I need to be more selfish
7:59
Speaker 3: about and how it's going to benefit me once I
8:01
Speaker 3: do it. I'm gonna approach it that way because I
8:04
Speaker 3: think by writing why, I'm discounting my feelings and my experience.
8:09
Speaker 1: I know why.
8:10
Speaker 3: I don't have to explain it. I don't have to
8:12
Speaker 3: explain it to myself. I don't have to make it
8:14
Speaker 3: make sense. I just need to execute on it and
8:17
Speaker 3: set the boundary be a little bit more selfish. Well,
8:22
Speaker 3: speaking of being selfish, let's get on into the latest s,
8:27
Speaker 3: all right, y'all. So the Knicks, the Finals, the Spurs
8:33
Speaker 3: have been my life for the last couple of days.
8:36
Speaker 3: If you guys are under rock at, I don't know
8:40
Speaker 3: how you didn't know that this was going on. But
8:42
Speaker 3: the Knicks and the Spurs have been facing off Game three,
8:44
Speaker 3: Game four. So there's been a lot of reporting that
8:46
Speaker 3: we've been doing on it over on the Breakfast Club.
8:49
Speaker 3: But we're going to talk about it today for a
8:51
Speaker 3: second only because one of our reports made it to
8:54
Speaker 3: page six and I was like, all right, like speaking
8:58
Speaker 3: of being selfish a bit one person who was not
9:02
Speaker 3: selfish with her time and her energy. Recently Tailor Swift. Now,
9:06
Speaker 3: I learned at the Grammys when Kendrick Lamar swept the
9:10
Speaker 3: Grammys right after night like us and she Can and
9:14
Speaker 3: Taylor Swift was in the crowd, singing and having a
9:17
Speaker 3: good time.
9:17
Speaker 1: It was lit.
9:18
Speaker 3: I'm like, okay, baby girls, seemed like a good time.
9:20
Speaker 3: I learned then that she was not selfish with her
9:22
Speaker 3: time and her and her experiences and her appearances.
9:24
Speaker 1: She likes to go out and have a good time.
9:26
Speaker 1: I don't care how famous she is.
9:28
Speaker 3: Tell Us did that at Game four of the Knicks,
9:31
Speaker 3: and it has been the talk one of the talking
9:33
Speaker 3: points of the evening of her being there and the
9:36
Speaker 3: she Knicks fan and all these things.
9:38
Speaker 1: Now back in twenty fourteen, tell Us we have talked.
9:40
Speaker 3: About how when she moved to New York, you know,
9:43
Speaker 3: she would go to the next games often in ri sodomire,
9:48
Speaker 3: she was saying how him and his family they were
9:50
Speaker 3: just so nice to her and so normal, and she
9:56
Speaker 3: just as a new celebrity here in New York, she
9:58
Speaker 3: just really appreciated and she admired it. So it made
10:00
Speaker 3: her become a fan of the Knicks. So she's been
10:03
Speaker 3: a fan every since. She's not somebody that we see
10:05
Speaker 3: at the games all the time. A few weeks ago,
10:07
Speaker 3: she was out at a game, a game for Cleveland
10:10
Speaker 3: with Travis Kelce.
10:12
Speaker 1: But this was different.
10:13
Speaker 3: She was at the next game. She's in the gear,
10:15
Speaker 3: she's having a good time, dancing, doing all the things.
10:17
Speaker 3: I saw some people saying that the nixt one and
10:19
Speaker 3: we're able to make that comeback from the you know,
10:22
Speaker 3: they were down twenty nine points, so we're able to
10:23
Speaker 3: make that comeback because she was in the building and
10:25
Speaker 3: because Lutang performed at halftime.
10:27
Speaker 1: You know, all the things right.
10:31
Speaker 3: But page six did the story on our reporting of
10:33
Speaker 3: it over at the breakfast club because.
10:38
Speaker 1: I don't think nobody dislikes Taylor Swift over there. I
10:42
Speaker 1: just think it's like.
10:44
Speaker 3: They're not swifty, they're not tell the Swift fans. I
10:47
Speaker 3: talk about Taylor Swift because I admire how she's been
10:51
Speaker 3: able to build out her business. She's smart. I love
10:54
Speaker 3: watching women be smart in business, especially women in entertainment,
10:57
Speaker 3: because this is such a hard business to build out
10:59
Speaker 3: in and sustain a career in, and she's doing it
11:02
Speaker 3: at one of the highest levels, and she does it
11:04
Speaker 3: and makes it look very effortless. But we just was
11:07
Speaker 3: joking around, having a good time, and Page six picked
11:11
Speaker 3: up this reporter and they say, here's the headline.
11:15
Speaker 1: Charlemagne and the guy brutally disss Taylor Swift court side.
11:18
Speaker 3: Next appearance, get the f out of here, Charlemagne god
11:21
Speaker 3: last shot at Taylor Swift. Following the exuberant experience or
11:25
Speaker 3: appearance at Wednesday's NBA Finals Knicks versus Spurs showdown, Ryan
11:29
Speaker 3: Taylor Swift, a New York Knicks fan breakfast club host,
11:33
Speaker 3: wondered during Tuesday's radio broadcast, how did this happen? Co
11:37
Speaker 3: host DJ and be sarcastically timed, and you're from reading Pennsylvania,
11:40
Speaker 3: stay down there with the Philadelhia seventy six.
11:42
Speaker 1: It's mind draw.
11:43
Speaker 3: I've said to them multiple times, I didn't even know
11:46
Speaker 3: Tailorswoft was from Pennsylvania, but I'm not a swiftye. I
11:48
Speaker 3: always knew her to claim Tennessee because that's where she
11:52
Speaker 3: grew up. So she showed up at Game four. I
11:54
Speaker 3: told you guys, she had on the you know, like
11:56
Speaker 3: a custom New York's Knicks set up. But the fact
12:00
Speaker 3: that she was out and about with her ex at
12:04
Speaker 3: another game a few weeks ago, Like even analysts were
12:08
Speaker 3: confused as to why Taylorswift was there.
12:10
Speaker 1: And I know that she's been living in New York.
12:13
Speaker 3: I know that she's been out and about in New
12:15
Speaker 3: York a lot more recently, as there have been reports
12:17
Speaker 3: that she's planning her wedding here.
12:20
Speaker 1: But people were wondering.
12:21
Speaker 3: I think it was honestly, just like you want something
12:23
Speaker 3: to poke fun at, and that's what it was.
12:26
Speaker 1: But when I saw this headline, I'm like, yo, people
12:29
Speaker 1: will make news out of anything. On people. People will
12:31
Speaker 1: make news out of anything, because why is this a headline? Y'all?
12:35
Speaker 3: When I tell y'all it was we were joking. It
12:38
Speaker 3: was just jokey, jokey, jokey, jokey, jokey, Like it wasn't.
12:43
Speaker 3: I was very surprised to see this on the front
12:44
Speaker 3: page of PA six. Like when I say surprise, I
12:46
Speaker 3: mean super surprised. Like they they aimed this article as
12:51
Speaker 3: if Charla Magne has like this like rivalry with Taylor Swift.
12:59
Speaker 3: I wouldn't be surprised if the Swifties are in his
13:01
Speaker 3: comments at this point. But I will say it was
13:05
Speaker 3: pretty interesting watching her turn up at the game and
13:07
Speaker 3: I'm a little dance as she was doing with her homegirls.
13:09
Speaker 3: They're from a band. Somebody tweeted me the name of
13:12
Speaker 3: the band that they're from, and I'm like, it's so
13:14
Speaker 3: great to know that. But the focus of the reporting
13:17
Speaker 3: wasn't them. It was the fact that Taylor Swift was.
13:19
Speaker 3: I mean, they weren't dressed a like with her, but
13:21
Speaker 3: but yeah, I mean people were saying that Taylor Swift
13:23
Speaker 3: was a good luck charm.
13:24
Speaker 1: I know Jordan Wags Wags wife and girlfriends of sports.
13:30
Speaker 1: I know Jordan Woods was as well. Her lucky bag
13:33
Speaker 1: was in the building. I wouldn't be mad.
13:37
Speaker 3: At tell the Swift pops out at the next game.
13:39
Speaker 3: I actually would would love it because it gives the
13:42
Speaker 3: people who watch the games like me, Like I am
13:45
Speaker 3: not a big sports fan. I don't have a team,
13:47
Speaker 3: I don't follow sports. When I watch sports or games
13:50
Speaker 3: like this, I'm watching for the pop culture stuff. I'm
13:52
Speaker 3: watching to see what celebrities is there, what they doing,
13:54
Speaker 3: who they wit men. Look Yesterday, another part of the
13:58
Speaker 3: game that stood out to meet on Anthony. In the
14:01
Speaker 3: midst of all of the next conversation, there was a
14:04
Speaker 3: photo posted with him and a woman named Raquel who
14:07
Speaker 3: used to did another athlete. The people think the people
14:10
Speaker 3: think that he is now in a new relationship, and
14:17
Speaker 3: I got quiet because I'm like, this is this would
14:22
Speaker 3: be the first real public relationship since La La, even
14:25
Speaker 3: though we knew that there were other women, unfortunately because
14:27
Speaker 3: some of them were coming out, but he was still
14:29
Speaker 3: dealing and ending.
14:30
Speaker 1: Things with La La.
14:31
Speaker 3: This would be the first actual public relationship that we've
14:35
Speaker 3: known of. And it's been some years, so I know
14:37
Speaker 3: that there's been relationships, but you know, if that photo
14:41
Speaker 3: was what we think it is, they made an ig
14:42
Speaker 3: official following the next game. You also got I mean,
14:46
Speaker 3: Rihanna asat Rocky running around after the game and they
14:49
Speaker 3: outside so four thirty am, and I'm looking at what
14:51
Speaker 3: she's wearing, and that's the type of stuff I watched
14:55
Speaker 3: the game for. So I'm all here for televiswift popping up.
14:57
Speaker 3: I have nothing against her, but it was funny to
15:00
Speaker 3: see her doing this little dance on the side of
15:02
Speaker 3: the on the side of the on the sidelines, and they.
15:07
Speaker 1: Call it celebro celebrity row. I don't know the things
15:12
Speaker 1: that we make news. Sometimes I'd be like, all right, y'all, Like, we.
15:17
Speaker 3: We got do a bit better, because when I saw
15:19
Speaker 3: this article, I could I literally was like, there's no
15:21
Speaker 3: way that our segment became a front page news conversation
15:28
Speaker 3: just because they didn't want to tell the Swift at
15:31
Speaker 3: the game. But look, I don't know. Some of the
15:34
Speaker 3: craziest things in storylines are what people check into. And
15:37
Speaker 3: speaking of storylines, so there are reports right now that
15:41
Speaker 3: Tellor Swift is supposed to be getting married at Madison
15:43
Speaker 3: Square Garden.
15:45
Speaker 1: I kind of understand.
15:47
Speaker 3: I had said on the breakfast club, like not a
15:49
Speaker 3: breakfast club, but we were preparing a report behind the scenes,
15:52
Speaker 3: and I said that I didn't think that this made sense.
15:55
Speaker 3: But now that I've been going down this rabbit hole
15:57
Speaker 3: of telling Swift and her love for New York, I.
16:01
Speaker 1: Kind of think it makes sense now.
16:04
Speaker 3: Because if she's such a big Knicks fan, if she
16:10
Speaker 3: is such a big I Love New York person, even
16:12
Speaker 3: though she is you know, she's not from New York.
16:15
Speaker 3: She moves here, right, so she's she's a transplant. Maybe
16:20
Speaker 3: and MSG is such a New York staple.
16:23
Speaker 1: It's like the Empire State Building, right.
16:25
Speaker 3: Maybe the wedding at MSG is because of how much
16:30
Speaker 3: love Taylor slif hassed for New York or for the city,
16:34
Speaker 3: and Travis Kelsey wants to because I'm thinking about like me,
16:36
Speaker 3: like when I get married, I always wanted a destination wedding, right,
16:40
Speaker 3: but even if I were to choose a destination, it
16:42
Speaker 3: would have to mean something to me. But I also
16:45
Speaker 3: am like, you know, my grandmother doesn't fly. So I've
16:48
Speaker 3: always said, when I get married, I want to do
16:51
Speaker 3: a very like traditional church wedding, but make it fly,
16:55
Speaker 3: like make it.
16:56
Speaker 1: Cover of Essence, cover of Vogue, of course.
17:00
Speaker 3: But I want to do like a very like traditional
17:02
Speaker 3: church wedding because I know how much that would mean
17:04
Speaker 3: to my family, and it would mean a lot to
17:07
Speaker 3: like the little girl and me who grew up in
17:09
Speaker 3: these traditional Black churches, who like it's just sacred, right,
17:15
Speaker 3: So taking it back to something that really means a
17:17
Speaker 3: lot to me, Maybe here's something with Teller Swift and
17:20
Speaker 3: that she that we just don't know. Because even Dolan,
17:22
Speaker 3: James Dolan, who is one of the heads over there
17:26
Speaker 3: with the Knicks, right, he talked about telling Swift in
17:29
Speaker 3: the wedding. I think there's more here than we're gambling.
17:31
Speaker 3: Like then we know, and I'm gonna figure it out
17:34
Speaker 3: because now I'm all love in the business. All right, Now,
17:37
Speaker 3: let's get let's let's get back to juicidor let's move
17:40
Speaker 3: on to the next story. So Juice Door, who's been
17:43
Speaker 3: going through a really public divorce, a divorce that almost
17:46
Speaker 3: left her homeless, almost after without a home when a
17:48
Speaker 3: judge ordered her to evacuate the premises and then decided
17:52
Speaker 3: to stand down on that. The divorce has finally been finalized.
17:55
Speaker 3: So that story actually broke a few days ago. The
17:58
Speaker 3: divorce finalized. She was ordered to pay child support a
18:02
Speaker 3: little bit over two thousand dollars or a little bit
18:03
Speaker 3: over twenty two hundred dollars to her ex husband, Ralph
18:06
Speaker 3: Pittman as a part of the divorce judgment because he
18:09
Speaker 3: was awarded for a custody of their children. But yeah,
18:12
Speaker 3: she's finally divorced. So ina divorce docs, it came out
18:17
Speaker 3: that she makes around like thirty eight thousand.
18:20
Speaker 1: Dollars per month.
18:21
Speaker 3: Now, So Juice Door is on season seventeen in Real
18:24
Speaker 3: Houses of Atlanta. She is on the season alone with
18:27
Speaker 3: Porsche Williams, Cynthia Bailey, Pinky CoA of Sludy Vegan Kelly,
18:33
Speaker 3: who is the home owner of Mama Chicken and Wife,
18:36
Speaker 3: so she's a newcomer. Kay Michelle is also on the season,
18:39
Speaker 3: and they've made some headlines recently Angela Oakley, Charles Oakley's wife.
18:44
Speaker 3: Who else am I forgetting Shemia? My girl Shamia who
18:49
Speaker 3: was at one point best friends with Porscha. That's how
18:51
Speaker 3: we first met her own Real Houses Atlanta. But so,
18:54
Speaker 3: her income was reported at thirty eight thousand dollars a
18:56
Speaker 3: month compared to Rouse, which was twenty seven thousand dollars
18:59
Speaker 3: a month. Now, when more details about her divorce came out,
19:05
Speaker 3: it was revealed that she is making a little bit
19:07
Speaker 3: over twenty six thousand dollars per episode, So she would
19:11
Speaker 3: have made a little bit over four hundred and sixty
19:15
Speaker 3: five thousand dollars just for season seventeen of Real Houses Vilina. Now,
19:19
Speaker 3: I saw some people talking Shi t about this. I
19:25
Speaker 3: twenty thousand dollars an episode. I'm not mad at that.
19:29
Speaker 3: I'm not mad at that at all. Like, yes, she's
19:31
Speaker 3: been on for a few seasons, don't get me wrong.
19:34
Speaker 3: Drew has been on Real Houses Atlanta since season thirteen,
19:37
Speaker 3: so now this is her fourth season so you would
19:39
Speaker 3: think that she would kind of be a little bit
19:41
Speaker 3: further along in the pay scale, but she's not. I mean, Drew,
19:46
Speaker 3: don't get Drew is a I'm I feel like everything
19:52
Speaker 3: with the Household. These people always take it as shade
19:53
Speaker 3: when you're like just being honest. I'm a fan of
19:56
Speaker 3: Drew on the show.
19:57
Speaker 1: I think Drew.
19:58
Speaker 3: At first, I was like, I don't know if she
20:02
Speaker 3: should be on the show because I didn't really under
20:04
Speaker 3: like outside of her marriage, I felt like the storyline
20:07
Speaker 3: kind of just like it wasn't really there. It wasn't
20:10
Speaker 3: really existing at all in my opinion, Like once we
20:12
Speaker 3: got through all the drama with her marriage, I was like, Okay,
20:15
Speaker 3: now what But now I actually I liked Drew on
20:19
Speaker 3: the show. I feel like Drew has also come a
20:21
Speaker 3: long way with like understanding how to navigate tension with
20:24
Speaker 3: the girls and the clapbags and all the things. So
20:27
Speaker 3: some people are arguing that, like she should be a
20:29
Speaker 3: lot further along to be four seasons in, But I
20:33
Speaker 3: think that Real Housewives of Atlanta as a location, like
20:37
Speaker 3: as a franchise, they've been struggling trying to figure out
20:41
Speaker 3: cast for a few years now. The first season that
20:45
Speaker 3: Drew was on, if I remember correctly, that was one
20:46
Speaker 3: of the first seasons where I remember they did all
20:48
Speaker 3: the big shake ups in the cast because Nini was
20:50
Speaker 3: no longer coming back, and then Cynthia Bailey was like there,
20:55
Speaker 3: but then she kind of fitted out and only wanted
20:56
Speaker 3: to be a friend of the show because she's on
20:57
Speaker 3: the show now. But she's a friend of the show,
20:59
Speaker 3: you though, she still has a big presence because she's
21:01
Speaker 3: a OG. Kenya was on the show, and then Kenya
21:05
Speaker 3: got you know, s suspended indefinitely from the show.
21:09
Speaker 1: Like there was a lot of changes within her first
21:11
Speaker 1: couple of seasons.
21:12
Speaker 3: So there's a lot that, like sh not only she
21:15
Speaker 3: had to prove, but the franchise itself had to reprove
21:18
Speaker 3: because we were missing a lot of the OG girls,
21:20
Speaker 3: and people and fans were very vocal about that. So
21:23
Speaker 3: I think I understand the sentiment of like people saying, oh, wow,
21:26
Speaker 3: she should be making more by now in comparison to
21:29
Speaker 3: the other girls. But then I also don't I feel
21:32
Speaker 3: like this is the first real season of Real Houses
21:35
Speaker 3: of Atlanta where the show is like making headlines consistently,
21:39
Speaker 3: people care, and they're doing it without the og girls
21:43
Speaker 3: on it without a lot of them on it, like
21:45
Speaker 3: you know, Porsche Carrey is the show. But like now
21:47
Speaker 3: a lot of the new girls are starting to get
21:48
Speaker 3: their own headlines. And that's what I mean by like
21:49
Speaker 3: people caring. People always will care about Real Housewives Atlanta
21:53
Speaker 3: is the best of the franchise if you asks me.
21:56
Speaker 1: Headlines will always be there.
21:57
Speaker 3: But I feel like this is the first real season
21:59
Speaker 3: where the new girls are carrying headlines and not just
22:03
Speaker 3: like popping up and them real quick in and leaving,
22:05
Speaker 3: Like it's like continue Like every week you're seeing them trending.
22:09
Speaker 3: Every week you're seeing them in the news, and that
22:11
Speaker 3: matters because it draws the fans in for the next episodes.
22:15
Speaker 4: Right.
22:16
Speaker 3: So, there was some information circuit circulating and it was
22:22
Speaker 3: a conversation about the highest earner peaks on roal houses
22:25
Speaker 3: in Atlanta.
22:26
Speaker 1: So, according to reports, at one time.
22:28
Speaker 3: Ne E Leek peaked and she was making two million,
22:32
Speaker 3: eight hundred and fifty thousand dollars per season. During her
22:35
Speaker 3: final season, Candy Birds reached up to two million, three
22:39
Speaker 3: hundred thousand per season, making her one of the highest
22:42
Speaker 3: paid house rids of the franchise. Kenya Moore has committed
22:48
Speaker 3: salaries around one million to one million, five hundred thousand
22:51
Speaker 3: in her peaks, and they say this dipped to five
22:54
Speaker 3: hundred thousand dollars during a contract renegotiation. Porsha Williams reached
22:58
Speaker 3: heights between one million, three hundred thousand dollars and two
23:01
Speaker 3: million dollars per season at a peak of her tenure.
23:05
Speaker 3: It's mind you, though, these are all women that they're
23:08
Speaker 3: naming that are when I say, like franchises on their back,
23:13
Speaker 3: like these, this is the Real Housewives of Atlanta, these
23:15
Speaker 3: women I just named. It's a it's a different game
23:19
Speaker 3: out here now in reality to TV streets, it's a
23:22
Speaker 3: completely different game. And that's why when Porscha went back
23:25
Speaker 3: to Real Houses of Atlanta, I was so happy. I
23:28
Speaker 3: was happy for her because Porsha was always really smart,
23:32
Speaker 3: even when she wasn't on Housewives, about the move she
23:34
Speaker 3: made and the business she was doing. But I knew
23:36
Speaker 3: that she would be the leader of the pack because
23:41
Speaker 3: she's the og girl. She's doing yet alright, she's building business,
23:44
Speaker 3: tremendously million dollar businesses at that storylines beyond point. The
23:50
Speaker 3: look every time you see her is on point, like
23:52
Speaker 3: she is the essence of what a reality star is,
23:56
Speaker 3: who then turns into a mogul from it, and the
23:59
Speaker 3: other girls just have to get a line and learn,
24:01
Speaker 3: like regardless if they want to admit that or not.
24:03
Speaker 3: But I was excited for that reason, and I knew
24:06
Speaker 3: that it would have a trickle effect, right, Like I
24:08
Speaker 3: knew that any of the other girls that were gonna
24:10
Speaker 3: be on the show and step up and actually start
24:13
Speaker 3: becoming a high earner, start getting the camera t on
24:16
Speaker 3: the storyline, the headlines, we're going to have to get
24:19
Speaker 3: in the game. The look gotta be together, the clapbacks
24:22
Speaker 3: gotta be together. So it's like iron Sharpen's iron, basically,
24:26
Speaker 3: And I think Drew is sharpening, like I think she is.
24:29
Speaker 3: I think people should leave her alone about what she's
24:31
Speaker 3: making now, because if you're watching the show, you know that,
24:35
Speaker 3: like regardless if you love the storylines all the time
24:38
Speaker 3: or not, she's on her way.
24:41
Speaker 1: She is on her way.
24:42
Speaker 3: And twenty two thousand dollars for episode, four hundred and
24:45
Speaker 3: sixty five thousand dollars a year, that's a nice little
24:47
Speaker 3: bit of money. Okay, People was out here losing job
24:49
Speaker 3: Showser's getting canceled, Tammy Roman had a lot to say
24:54
Speaker 3: about it.
24:54
Speaker 1: And you guys, remember Tammy was on Basketball Watch for
24:56
Speaker 1: some time. Let's take a listen.
24:58
Speaker 5: R I was down to the blog people's place and
25:04
Speaker 5: I saw that they had released some information about Drew Sidora,
25:08
Speaker 5: who's on Real Housewives of Atlanta or divorced, and I
25:15
Speaker 5: just wanted to say, I think it's unfortunate that so
25:17
Speaker 5: much information is public.
25:20
Speaker 2: But what they were focusing on was her rate of pay.
25:25
Speaker 5: And I think the reports were that she makes twenty
25:29
Speaker 5: six thousand dollars.
25:31
Speaker 2: In an episode, and so I'm nosy. So I went
25:36
Speaker 2: to the comments and there were people saying, Oh my god,
25:41
Speaker 2: that's so low. She ain't hardly making no money.
25:45
Speaker 5: Who said that?
25:48
Speaker 2: Because I'm about to tell y'all something.
25:49
Speaker 5: When I started Basketball Wise, I think it was twenty ten,
25:57
Speaker 5: I was making two thousand, five hundred dollars in episode.
26:03
Speaker 5: I was still working my everyday job at Morgan Stanley,
26:08
Speaker 5: and I was flying down on the weekends for two thousand,
26:14
Speaker 5: five hundred.
26:15
Speaker 2: Dollars an episode.
26:18
Speaker 4: Now that's not what I made by the end of
26:21
Speaker 4: the show or whatever, but I just want to say,
26:27
Speaker 4: it's not a lot of people that's making twenty six thousand.
26:33
Speaker 2: Okay, that are in the reality TV space.
26:39
Speaker 5: And in Real Housewives they get about twenty four twenty
26:42
Speaker 5: six episodes.
26:44
Speaker 2: So when you do the math on that, I just
26:47
Speaker 2: wanted to come.
26:48
Speaker 5: On here and say, Drew in the event you were
26:54
Speaker 5: feeling minimized or.
26:56
Speaker 2: People were making you.
26:58
Speaker 5: You know, feel a way, get your paper, get your coin,
27:03
Speaker 5: because mother was going for twenty five hundred.
27:05
Speaker 2: So there's that.
27:08
Speaker 3: And this is exactly what I mean by people are crazy.
27:14
Speaker 3: I don't think people understand.
27:16
Speaker 1: I think people see the glitz and the glam of
27:18
Speaker 1: television and they get it real confused, real fast.
27:21
Speaker 3: Like number one, Almost any industry is a seniority based game,
27:28
Speaker 3: like you coming man. Look, I came into radio. I
27:30
Speaker 3: came into podcasting as the new kid in school. Just
27:34
Speaker 3: to be able to make anything, to afford anything off
27:37
Speaker 3: of anything that you are new at is a blessing
27:40
Speaker 3: in these industries. Twenty five hundred dollars in episode. I
27:45
Speaker 3: know people that are working in entertainment and television that
27:51
Speaker 3: are barely making that for episode. I don't care how
27:56
Speaker 3: much earning she got to go. First of all, y'all
27:59
Speaker 3: are comparing her to girls that when I say, literally,
28:02
Speaker 3: Housewives of Atlanta is on their back. I mean, we
28:05
Speaker 3: need to think them that we have the franchise because
28:07
Speaker 3: baby they carry that.
28:10
Speaker 1: Drew is not. She will be fine. She is developing.
28:15
Speaker 1: She is I'm trying to to if y'all don't see it.
28:17
Speaker 3: Pinky Cole was another one too that I was really like,
28:20
Speaker 3: I don't know if it makes sense for her to
28:21
Speaker 3: be on the show. I kept saying, why did she
28:23
Speaker 3: decide to go on Housewives and be.
28:26
Speaker 1: Honest with y'all?
28:26
Speaker 3: And I know she comes from the TV world, so
28:28
Speaker 3: she knows what she's doing. But you can't fake the
28:30
Speaker 3: funk for too long on reality show TV because it'll
28:33
Speaker 3: get corny, It'll get cheesy, especially in the Housewives world.
28:37
Speaker 3: I'm not mad at Pinky Cole either, and y'all be
28:40
Speaker 3: all in her business about money too. The girls is maneuvering.
28:44
Speaker 3: I just hope Drew through all the mix and all
28:47
Speaker 3: the madness and people having conversations about her.
28:49
Speaker 1: Money and they're evictioning a divorce, that she hears.
28:52
Speaker 3: Things like what Tammy has to say and stays sentoed down.
28:55
Speaker 3: Because everybody has to start from somewhere. Everybody has to
28:59
Speaker 3: start from somewhere like literally, and.
29:04
Speaker 1: A start is better than nothing.
29:05
Speaker 3: Some people ain't even got to start, all they guys
29:07
Speaker 3: in opinion in the comments, I'm one and Rosa. This
29:12
Speaker 3: has been another episode of the Latest with Lona Rosa.
29:14
Speaker 3: I tell you guys, every single episode, you guys could
29:17
Speaker 3: be anywhere with any old body, but you'd rather be
29:19
Speaker 3: right here with me talking about all of the things.
29:21
Speaker 3: I appreciate you guys so much every single time you
29:24
Speaker 3: tune in, and I will catch you in my next episode.
