• 3:46
  Speaker 4: as well. But yeah, I'm vegan. We came up with
• 3:49
  Speaker 4: the mix. We actually really sat in the kitchen like
• 3:52
  Speaker 4: and like figured out the ingredients. Did it like we
• 3:54
  Speaker 4: didn't just like find it like we did it. I
• 3:57
  Speaker 4: have a lot of food that too.
• 3:58
  Speaker 6: So the facility that also produces oh, okay, never mind,
• 4:03
  Speaker 6: but co pack, I like to read the ingredients because
• 4:07
  Speaker 6: I really don't know the difference between what's vegan and.
• 4:10
  Speaker 4: What's So it's no like dairy, you know what I mean.
• 4:13
  Speaker 4: So there's no milk, there's no eggs. It's strictly vegan
• 4:16
  Speaker 4: like you get and you use like oat milk and
• 4:18
  Speaker 4: vegan butter.
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: Well.
• 4:19
  Speaker 6: One thing I love about you and Angela is that
• 4:21
  Speaker 6: throughout your whole career we've seen you, it's like you're
• 4:24
  Speaker 6: always trying to redefine yourself or reinvent yourself with that
• 4:28
  Speaker 6: intentional because you didn't want to just get boxed into
• 4:30
  Speaker 6: the reality TV.
• 4:32
  Speaker 4: Oh not really. I just do what I like to do,
• 4:34
  Speaker 4: what I love to do, and like I stick to it.
• 4:36
  Speaker 4: So to me, like when I have a passion for something,
• 4:38
  Speaker 4: I just go for it. I don't really allow anyone
• 4:41
  Speaker 4: else to find that. So that's what I do.
• 4:44
  Speaker 3: Do you have a deal with Orioles?
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: Because I know when you posted the picture in the
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: tub with all the Orioles, people were going.
• 4:49
  Speaker 3: At you, oh my gosh.
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: But then Orioles left the messages like we love it.
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: So I was like, I wonder if she has a
• 4:52
  Speaker 2: deal with Orioles.
• 4:53
  Speaker 7: No, I don't currently have one, not yet. No, because
• 4:56
  Speaker 7: they said they had a crush on Angela Simmons Sonny's.
• 4:58
  Speaker 4: I like that they should have a crush. She's good.
• 5:01
  Speaker 6: I just don't understand why people got upset at that picture.
• 5:03
  Speaker 4: It's weird. It's strange. I don't know.
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: Are you and Keiky Palmer like y'all real tight in
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: real life? Because she came to New York Defense.
• 5:10
  Speaker 4: I've known her actually for some time too. She's been
• 5:13
  Speaker 4: super cool, super supportive, really nice person. So we cool.
• 5:18
  Speaker 6: I saw you walking your dog and people got mad.
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: But what.

• 5:29
  Speaker 7: The dog, putting up a middle finger. She did chilling
• 5:32
  Speaker 7: the dog. Nothing, She was just walking. And it wasn't
• 5:34
  Speaker 7: even a long video.
• 5:35
  Speaker 4: It was a couple of seconds, probably twenty five.
• 5:37
  Speaker 5: It was so cute. I would say, keeping cute.
• 5:39
  Speaker 6: Yeah, why don't you just start trolling people on purpose?
• 5:41
  Speaker 6: Maybe get with somebody like Jess. She's good at stuff
• 5:43
  Speaker 6: like that, and y'all just come up with ways to
• 5:45
  Speaker 6: just troll people.
• 5:47
  Speaker 7: They really do hate. They really hate her. She started
• 5:50
  Speaker 7: doing anything with me is.
• 5:51
  Speaker 4: No we could make a skin of what we're doing.
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: Even the bag at the BT Awards. Yeah, the gun bag.
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: People were mad about that, but that was considered fashion.
• 5:59
  Speaker 3: Most people. People do that all the time.
• 6:01
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 6:01
  Speaker 5: I mean for me to apologize for that one, why, Yeah, well.
• 6:04
  Speaker 4: I only apologize because I felt, like, you know, it
• 6:06
  Speaker 4: offended some people, and for me, I mean, people were offended.
• 6:10
  Speaker 4: People were in their feelings about it, and for me,
• 6:13
  Speaker 4: I just liked the bag. I thought it was nice.
• 6:15
  Speaker 4: It's a green bag. I'm on the carpet. I'm gonna
• 6:17
  Speaker 4: explain it exactly what happened. I'm on the carpet. I
• 6:19
  Speaker 4: take some photos. The paparazzi like all of the camera,
• 6:22
  Speaker 4: you know, they seen the bag, they said they like it.
• 6:24
  Speaker 4: I'm at the end of the carpet. They're like pointing here,
• 6:26
  Speaker 4: we want to see it. I'm clearly smiling. I mean, personally,
• 6:29
  Speaker 4: I am affected by gun violence. So I'm not no
• 6:32
  Speaker 4: shape or form promoting that, you know what I mean.
• 6:34
  Speaker 4: Like I deal with that every day with my son,
• 6:36
  Speaker 4: you know what I mean. So that's not something I'm promoting.
• 6:37
  Speaker 4: But I liked it. I thought it was cool. I
• 6:40
  Speaker 4: liked the bag. It was green, it went with my dress.
• 6:42
  Speaker 4: It was different. It's not classic.
• 6:44
  Speaker 6: It's being with Gotti and like, I don't know going
• 6:46
  Speaker 6: to Memphis, what inspired you to have the gun shape person?
• 6:48
  Speaker 4: Maybe?
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: No?
• 6:51
  Speaker 4: I literally, just I literally just like the purse. I
• 6:53
  Speaker 4: thought the purse was like cool and different, you know,
• 6:56
  Speaker 4: like for me, I don't want to do what everybody
• 6:58
  Speaker 4: else doing. I just do what I like to do.
• 6:59
  Speaker 4: When I thought that it matched the dress and it
• 7:01
  Speaker 4: was different than a classic clutch.
• 7:04
  Speaker 6: I didn't like that you apologize tho, because I'm like,
• 7:05
  Speaker 6: what are you apologizing for?
• 7:07
  Speaker 4: Just I didn't because I don't like to upset anyone,
• 7:10
  Speaker 4: you know what I mean, Like if you're offended or
• 7:11
  Speaker 4: think I was trying to promote gun violence, I'm not,
• 7:14
  Speaker 4: you know what I mean. So I'm just like true
• 7:15
  Speaker 4: to that and true to who I am. So that's
• 7:17
  Speaker 4: the only reason you.
• 7:18
  Speaker 6: Could have been promoting Second Amendment rights though, like I'm
• 7:21
  Speaker 6: I'm I'm two a all day.
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: I believe it my second memory, right, So it's like
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: who knows.
• 7:25
  Speaker 4: I mean, they read it wrong. I feel like the
• 7:27
  Speaker 4: media just painted a picture that they wanted to and
• 7:29
  Speaker 4: it's not true. It's not even who I am, you know,
• 7:31
  Speaker 4: that's just how I am.
• 7:33
  Speaker 7: Would you wear it again?
• 7:34
  Speaker 4: I don't think it's necessary. You know, they've seen it.
• 7:38
  Speaker 4: I mean, I thought it was cool in the moment.
• 7:40
  Speaker 4: I liked the person that was it. It was really simple,
• 7:43
  Speaker 4: like I didn't mean nothing else by it.
• 7:45
  Speaker 6: All of these rappers that be in music videos with
• 7:49
  Speaker 6: guns and promoting guns, and they gonna get mad at
• 7:51
  Speaker 6: Angela Simmons and Angela Simmons have to apologize.
• 7:54
  Speaker 4: Come on, it's different, definitely different.
• 7:57
  Speaker 5: It is different. They're rappers.
• 7:59
  Speaker 7: They rap about shooting guns and everything. Even if they don't,
• 8:03
  Speaker 7: that's a different life.
• 8:04
  Speaker 5: She's you know, I get wise.
• 8:05
  Speaker 4: I'm just I'm not about that life. That's just not me.
• 8:07
  Speaker 4: Like I literally just thought it was a nice purse
• 8:10
  Speaker 4: at the time, and it matched the dress. It was green,
• 8:12
  Speaker 4: it wasn't the regular purson you'd wear with it. I
• 8:15
  Speaker 4: don't know, that was mine. That's all I got for that.
• 8:17
  Speaker 6: How much does social media impact you in moments like that,
• 8:21
  Speaker 6: because you know, people like you just said, people were
• 8:22
  Speaker 6: online saying, oh, you know, she lost her ex fiancee
• 8:25
  Speaker 6: the gun violence, so she should be more cautious.
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: Like did that did that really get to you?
• 8:29
  Speaker 4: To me? It's like I'm living that right, like that's
• 8:31
  Speaker 4: my everyday thing. My son's asking what happened to his dad?
• 8:34
  Speaker 4: My son's looking it up, like I go through that,
• 8:35
  Speaker 4: so it's like that's my real life. And then like
• 8:38
  Speaker 4: whatever people like paint online is on them. I normally
• 8:41
  Speaker 4: don't even like I just don't talk in the dress.
• 8:42
  Speaker 4: Whatever people say, it doesn't affect me because I've been
• 8:45
  Speaker 4: around it so long, like I'm used to people having
• 8:47
  Speaker 4: their own opinion, like I know who I am, so
• 8:49
  Speaker 4: I don't it don't affect me. I only said so
• 8:51
  Speaker 4: cause I was like all right side of controls out
• 8:53
  Speaker 4: of hand, like let me just say what it is.
• 8:55
  Speaker 4: You know what I mean? But that to me, it
• 8:57
  Speaker 4: doesn't affect me in that way.
• 8:58
  Speaker 6: Did you get so big in the physical fitness because
• 9:00
  Speaker 6: it does help with your mental and emotional Oh?
• 9:03
  Speaker 4: One hundred percent helps. Yeah. But I got into it
• 9:06
  Speaker 4: really young because I wanted to just lose weight, and
• 9:08
  Speaker 4: then I realized how much it helps me, Like I
• 9:10
  Speaker 4: don't like to miss too many days, like two days missed,
• 9:12
  Speaker 4: I'm like, I gotta get there.
• 9:14
  Speaker 2: Well, you know you've been one of those people that
• 9:16
  Speaker 2: really showed your body in all the transformation. You know,
• 9:19
  Speaker 2: whether you're losing weight or whatever it is. What puts
• 9:21
  Speaker 2: you in that mind frame? Because you know social media,
• 9:23
  Speaker 2: you know, you could feel like they would try to
• 9:25
  Speaker 2: kill you, but you don't care. Whatever your body is
• 9:27
  Speaker 2: or whatever day it is, you will post and you
• 9:29
  Speaker 2: will you know, show you your yeah, your transformation or
• 9:32
  Speaker 2: your workout regimen. So what put you in that mind frame?
• 9:35
  Speaker 4: I just think people should be real, like whatever it is, Like,
• 9:38
  Speaker 4: if that's how you look at the moment, that's where
• 9:40
  Speaker 4: you're at, just share it and just be honest, just
• 9:42
  Speaker 4: be open, like to me, like that's where I just
• 9:44
  Speaker 4: felt like it's best, Like I'm not gonna lie to
• 9:46
  Speaker 4: you like this where I'm at today, maybe somewhere else tomorrow.
• 9:49
  Speaker 4: But I don't mind being transparent. And I think there
• 9:52
  Speaker 4: are a lot of people out there that feel the
• 9:53
  Speaker 4: pressure to look a certain way and do certain things.
• 9:56
  Speaker 4: Like no, like be who you are in the moment,
• 9:58
  Speaker 4: and if you want to get better, do it. That's it.
• 10:00
  Speaker 4: That's all you can do. Like that's how I feel
• 10:02
  Speaker 4: about it.
• 10:04
  Speaker 6: I was joking before, but did you ask your pops
• 10:07
  Speaker 6: about the tough thing or was that just you paying
• 10:09
  Speaker 6: homage or did he say anything to you.
• 10:11
  Speaker 4: No, I actually just did it. It was the idea
• 10:13
  Speaker 4: of mine and Khaliland, my partner who's actually in here,
• 10:17
  Speaker 4: and I just we thought it was cool. Like we
• 10:20
  Speaker 4: were like, we're putting out fried orioles. What else would
• 10:22
  Speaker 4: you do except bathing orioles? You know what I mean,
• 10:24
  Speaker 4: Like it's a cool idea. So I didn't think nothing
• 10:27
  Speaker 4: else of it. And then obviously it came up with
• 10:28
  Speaker 4: people like your dad, and I'm like, well it is true.
• 10:30
  Speaker 4: I mean my dad hasn't does sit in the tub,
• 10:34
  Speaker 4: so I mean, but no, I didn't like even think
• 10:36
  Speaker 4: about it like that. I just thought it was cool.
• 10:39
  Speaker 2: People forget your age because people keep saying it, you know,
• 10:41
  Speaker 2: like what about your dad? But they don't know that
• 10:43
  Speaker 2: you're in your thirties, you know, like do they think
• 10:45
  Speaker 2: that you're still a teenager?
• 10:46
  Speaker 3: Like he said, did your dad?
• 10:47
  Speaker 4: Like I feel like, you know, being on Runs House
• 10:49
  Speaker 4: and growing up on Runs House in seventeen, it's like
• 10:52
  Speaker 4: they stuck somewhere over there, like I'm not eighteen, I'm
• 10:54
  Speaker 4: not seventeen, like I'm grown grown, but they do, like
• 10:57
  Speaker 4: I think, they forget. And then on top of it,
• 10:58
  Speaker 4: I think a lot of times people because of where
• 11:00
  Speaker 4: I come from. They pre judge before like knowing me.
• 11:04
  Speaker 4: I mean obviously no one really truly knows me and
• 11:05
  Speaker 4: said my people, but like on social they think they
• 11:09
  Speaker 4: know me, Like you shouldn't be doing that, why, Like
• 11:12
  Speaker 4: that's me, I'm grown, That's what I do.
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: You know he's been in the South because I had accents.
• 11:16
  Speaker 5: Definitely definitely music, like what's going on?
• 11:29
  Speaker 4: It's probably my man, it's probably probably influence.
• 11:33
  Speaker 7: Got your man or you wasn't the only people to
• 11:36
  Speaker 7: have like a crush on you. He's had a crush
• 11:38
  Speaker 7: on me.
• 11:38
  Speaker 4: He said that in a song.
• 11:40
  Speaker 7: How did it go from a bar in a song
• 11:43
  Speaker 7: to a full blown relationship?
• 11:44
