- 1:08Speaker 2: And I tell you was also cute. What that blond baby?
- 1:12Speaker 4: Yes, they say blondes have more fun. So I'm a testament.
- 1:20Speaker 1: So wait, so is this what the what Gisellekaron call
- 1:25Speaker 1: the color, is it the bee.
- 1:28Speaker 3: Don't get me lying. I don't know none of those things.
- 1:32Speaker 3: I don't know. That is not my ministry.
- 1:36Speaker 2: I'm sorry, Okay. That's how I learned a little a
- 1:40Speaker 2: little bit or too.
- 1:41Speaker 1: About blonde hair, baby, because there was a whole drama
- 1:45Speaker 1: about whether or not people are sitting in the blonde.
- 1:47Speaker 2: But the blonde looks really good on you.
- 1:51Speaker 1: So look, I wanted to make sure that you and
- 1:53Speaker 1: I spoke before the New year, because girl, your name
- 1:57Speaker 1: and the name of your son, Jackson, Okay, has been
- 2:01Speaker 1: everywhere due to listen, let's say you right into it,
- 2:06Speaker 1: due to Ashley's admission that she did hook up.
- 2:10Speaker 2: With your son. So before we get into what you
- 2:13Speaker 2: responded to on.
- 2:14Speaker 1: Social media, I want to go back to the day
- 2:19Speaker 1: you filmed that scene because it's a lot of people, Sharise,
- 2:24Speaker 1: who felt that, Okay, did she already know this? Were
- 2:27Speaker 1: you surprised on the first time on camera? Did your
- 2:30Speaker 1: son ever tell you he hooked up with Ashley? So
- 2:33Speaker 1: talk to me about that scene that we saw in
- 2:37Speaker 1: the last episode where Ashley does tell you that she
- 2:43Speaker 1: and your son kissed, and then a lot of things
- 2:46Speaker 1: transpire after that that we'll get into yes.
- 2:49Speaker 4: So basically that was one of my first scenes, and
- 2:52Speaker 4: so it was more like a catch up scene of
- 2:56Speaker 4: me finding out what's been going on with the girls.
- 2:58Speaker 4: This is what I thought it was, and I come
- 3:02Speaker 4: on to the scene rewind. I was very clear about
- 3:05Speaker 4: coming into filming. My intention was not to get into
- 3:10Speaker 4: these little cat fights with these ladies because for some reason,
- 3:14Speaker 4: when there's a confrontation that involves me, I'm always looked
- 3:17Speaker 4: at as the underdog and I'm being thirsty and all
- 3:21Speaker 4: these things, and people really have no idea what really
- 3:24Speaker 4: goes on. But I went in thinking I'm just gonna
- 3:28Speaker 4: catch up with girls. It was actually a great scene.
- 3:30Speaker 4: It was fun, it was a lot of laughter, and
- 3:35Speaker 4: they didn't use the scene and I was just like, damn,
- 3:37Speaker 4: it didn't even use that.
- 3:38Speaker 3: That was a great scene. Like, you know, these women
- 3:40Speaker 3: are fighting all season.
- 3:41Speaker 4: You finally get a friends scene that seems very genuine
- 3:45Speaker 4: and you don't even use it. And then down the
- 3:47Speaker 4: road it's like, well two weeks earlier and it shows
- 3:51Speaker 4: just that one portion where Ashley is dropping this bomb
- 3:54Speaker 4: in my lap. And to be quite honest with you, Carlos,
- 3:58Speaker 4: I didn't believe her. I actually has been lying for
- 4:01Speaker 4: ten years. So when she's saying this to me, I'm
- 4:05Speaker 4: honestly waiting for the prank or I did not believe her.
- 4:10Speaker 4: And in my head, I'm thinking, I know she is
- 4:12Speaker 4: not that death before a storyline that she's bringing my
- 4:16Speaker 4: son into this, Like, I really did not I didn't
- 4:19Speaker 4: believe it. But then she says he initiated a kiss
- 4:24Speaker 4: with her.
- 4:24Speaker 3: This is what she tells me. That's all it was.
- 4:26Speaker 4: He initiated He like pulled her in or something. And
- 4:29Speaker 4: I'm not thinking to myself, that doesn't sound like my son.
- 4:32Speaker 4: But okay, but I just I just didn't believe her, honestly,
- 4:37Speaker 4: I just I didn't believe it. And then fast forward,
- 4:40Speaker 4: now that the show is aired, it's turned into let me.
- 4:44Speaker 2: Stop you there. Okay.
- 4:45Speaker 1: So when she tells you the day y'all tape the
- 4:50Speaker 1: scene that we saw, right, because of course this happened
- 4:52Speaker 1: months ago, So months ago, with your friend Ashley tells
- 4:58Speaker 1: you she made out with yourself, You're you're saying, look,
- 5:01Speaker 1: Ash's a liar.
- 5:02Speaker 2: She lies all the time, but not all the time.
- 5:04Speaker 2: You just say that she lies.
- 5:06Speaker 3: All the time. But go ahead, okay, she lies all
- 5:13Speaker 3: the time.
- 5:14Speaker 1: And you thought, like, Okay, this girl is deaf the
- 5:16Speaker 1: first story line. So that day or days after, weeks after,
- 5:21Speaker 1: a month after, did you and your son Jackson ever
- 5:24Speaker 1: talk about what Ashley told you that day?
- 5:26Speaker 3: Okay? In all, honestly, because I really didn't believe her.
- 5:30Speaker 3: I didn't.
- 5:30Speaker 4: I never asked Jackson. I just said, oh I heard
- 5:34Speaker 4: I actually had the hots for you. That's what I said,
- 5:37Speaker 4: and Jackson laughed it off. And that was the only
- 5:39Speaker 4: thing said when we were And again, I'm still not
- 5:43Speaker 4: believing this story. So I'm like, I'm gonna bring Jackson
- 5:47Speaker 4: to the little cowboy thing they had, right, I did
- 5:51Speaker 4: not believe it when I was when I had Jackson
- 5:54Speaker 4: come to film that day. You know, my son wants
- 5:55Speaker 4: to be a model and all the things, right, So
- 5:57Speaker 4: like I'm a little exposure.
- 5:59Speaker 3: So I'm like, come on, I felt with me.
- 6:01Speaker 4: And then I'm like, maybe he really did kiss her, right,
- 6:07Speaker 4: but that's all I'm thinking.
- 6:08Speaker 3: It was a kiss, that's it.
- 6:10Speaker 4: But so I don't know why. Like I've read a
- 6:13Speaker 4: lot where people felt like I should have been like
- 6:16Speaker 4: going off on Ashley, and I honestly don't agree with
- 6:20Speaker 4: that because, first of all, again I'm thinking she's lying.
- 6:24Speaker 4: But if my grown son initiated something with her, where's
- 6:32Speaker 4: the why am I going off? This isn't a twenty
- 6:35Speaker 4: seventh in Wall. He's twenty five minutes a time, but
- 6:37Speaker 4: twenty he's twenty seven years old? You know, nothing but nothing.
- 6:41Speaker 4: Ashley's not a not a bad looking girl. She's a hottie,
- 6:44Speaker 4: you know what I'm saying. So if I was my son,
- 6:48Speaker 4: I could see him being a little la la over Ashley.
- 6:51Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying.
- 6:52Speaker 4: So why would I get mad that my son took
- 6:55Speaker 4: the initiative to kiss her? But she presented her wrong?
- 6:59Speaker 4: She lied when she presented it. They wanted a reaction
- 7:02Speaker 4: for me. If they wanted a reaction.
- 7:05Speaker 3: They should have told the truth. The truth was she's well,
- 7:11Speaker 3: now she's saying, which.
- 7:11Speaker 4: I still know. I don't know because I did. I
- 7:13Speaker 4: have not even asked my son the part about them
- 7:16Speaker 4: sleeping together. Like now she's saying they've slept on multiple
- 7:20Speaker 4: occasions and he's good and bad. I've been hearing all
- 7:22Speaker 4: these stories, you know, So I'm like, what is the
- 7:25Speaker 4: motive here?
- 7:26Speaker 3: What is the motive?
- 7:28Speaker 4: You know, you you're that thirsty that you need to
- 7:31Speaker 4: use my son to you know, come up what you
- 7:35Speaker 4: think is something relevant to me is disgusting. Honestly, you
- 7:39Speaker 4: know what woman would sleep with their friends, were friends,
- 7:45Speaker 4: their friend's son. You know, it's just it's tacky. But again, Carlos,
- 7:52Speaker 4: I really didn't believe the story, and I think, honestly,
- 7:54Speaker 4: part of me wants to.
- 7:58Speaker 3: Be in denial about it, honestly because I don't want.
- 8:01Speaker 4: To believe that she could be that low to want
- 8:07Speaker 4: to use my son for a storyline. Because when Andy
- 8:09Speaker 4: I saw him watch what Happened, Watch what Happened Live?
- 8:13Speaker 4: I always say that wrong, Watch what Happens Live? He
- 8:17Speaker 4: asked her, did I know? And then she said something
- 8:19Speaker 4: about oh, she something about if she looked at her
- 8:25Speaker 4: her camera lights in her house. So now you're implying
- 8:29Speaker 4: that you don't that my son in my house. See,
- 8:36Speaker 4: this is the shit you should have said when we
- 8:38Speaker 4: were sitting in the in the restaurant if you wanted
- 8:40Speaker 4: a reaction, not ol were Jackson kind of kissed me,
- 8:46Speaker 4: that you know type of thing.
- 8:47Speaker 3: But now it's a whole, it's it's it's crazy.
- 8:52Speaker 1: So let's let let's talk about this. So Ashley did
- 8:55Speaker 1: go on watch Apples Live. She intimated that yours son,
- 9:00Speaker 1: who is twenty seven years old and she's thirty seven,
- 9:03Speaker 1: and look, look grown Adolphs consenting adults ten your age.
- 9:07Speaker 2: Difference, they're grown.
- 9:09Speaker 1: So for you, it's less about your son allegedly, because
- 9:16Speaker 1: again you haven't asked Jackson, so we've never heard his
- 9:21Speaker 1: side of the story.
- 9:22Speaker 2: I'm assuming.
- 9:23Speaker 1: I'm assuming that Jackson is a type of guy who's
- 9:27Speaker 1: not going to kiss and tell and listen, you raised
- 9:31Speaker 1: a great man who doesn't feel the need to brag
- 9:34Speaker 1: about the women he slept with.
- 9:37Speaker 2: Allegedly.
- 9:40Speaker 1: Is it more about the fact that you considered Ashley
- 9:46Speaker 1: to be a friend and the fact that she is
- 9:49Speaker 1: going on Washta Happens Live and doing these interviews talking
- 9:54Speaker 1: about how your son is good in bed and they
- 9:59Speaker 1: hook the multiple times, and she was never warming enough
- 10:03Speaker 1: to have that conversation with you face to face exactly.
- 10:05Speaker 4: Like even the mere fact that you'd go on national
- 10:09Speaker 4: television to disclose this as my friend, I think you
- 10:14Speaker 4: should have said to me, you know what this is,
- 10:18Speaker 4: this is what happened, and that she was going to
- 10:23Speaker 4: move in that way or some I don't know. I
- 10:25Speaker 4: just I just thought it was just tacky, like, why
- 10:29Speaker 4: are you doing this? And I was told that she
- 10:33Speaker 4: wanted to bring this story up two years ago. Two
- 10:37Speaker 4: years ago, you were trying to make it your storyline.
- 10:40Speaker 4: Then Andy asked her did I know? Did she tell me?
- 10:44Speaker 4: And why why didn't she tell me? And she said
- 10:47Speaker 4: because Jackson didn't.
- 10:48Speaker 3: Want me to know. Okay, he didn't want me to know.
- 10:51Speaker 4: But you go on national television to tell me that
- 10:55Speaker 4: he hooked up with well he initiated kissing you or whatever.
- 11:00Speaker 4: But now you're on the roll talking about a relationship.
- 11:04Speaker 4: If this was the other way around, and it was
- 11:07Speaker 4: a Jackson was the was Ashley thirty seven, and Ashley
- 11:13Speaker 4: was Jackson twenty seven the woman, the roles reversed. People
- 11:18Speaker 4: will see this thing so differently. You know what I'm saying,
- 11:21Speaker 4: It's just like I for me when she's telling me,
- 11:26Speaker 4: I'm in a sense thing about my own life at
- 11:29Speaker 4: twenty five. At twenty five, Carlos, do you know I
- 11:33Speaker 4: was dating their father? At twenty five he was in
- 11:37Speaker 4: the process of a divorce. He had two kids he
- 11:39Speaker 4: had by his wife, he had two other kids by
- 11:42Speaker 4: two other women.
- 11:43Speaker 3: And I married that man.
- 11:45Speaker 4: Okay, So like I can't get mad at nothing anybody does, because.
- 11:51Speaker 3: Which was my child, you know what I'm saying. So
- 11:53Speaker 3: I get it, you know what I'm.
- 11:55Speaker 4: Saying, Like, I can't get mad at him for doing
- 11:59Speaker 4: whatever he whatever he chose to do, if he did it.
- 12:02Speaker 4: But at the same time, it's how it was put
- 12:04Speaker 4: out there.
- 12:05Speaker 2: I thought it was.
- 12:07Speaker 4: It was low And for the record, my friends, none
- 12:10Speaker 4: of them would ever do such a thing like as
- 12:12Speaker 4: She doesn't operate like my friends, like for the way
- 12:17Speaker 4: that I grew up, When your friends kids become your kids,
- 12:22Speaker 4: you know what I'm saying, No matter what the age is,
- 12:24Speaker 4: they become your kids.
- 12:26Speaker 3: And so to be.
- 12:28Speaker 4: Interested in your friend's kid that you now consider like
- 12:32Speaker 4: a brother or nephew, it's ancestral to me, you know.
- 12:37Speaker 4: But I also understand that she doesn't navigate like people
- 12:41Speaker 4: like me. Her mindset is a little different than how
- 12:45Speaker 4: I am. I mean, she was married to Michael, they
- 12:48Speaker 4: had a whole open relationship, you know what I'm saying.
- 12:51Speaker 4: So her thought process about sexual relations is a lot
- 12:55Speaker 4: different than mine.
- 12:57Speaker 3: There's no boundaries for her. Nothing's all limits. Period.
- 13:04Speaker 1: Before I get to the next question, I do want
- 13:06Speaker 1: to ask you on the record, Jackson is your son.
- 13:10Speaker 2: You two are very close.
- 13:13Speaker 1: Why even today haven't you spoken to Jackson about it?
- 13:16Speaker 1: What is your reason to ask his mother to not
- 13:18Speaker 1: bring it up?
- 13:19Speaker 4: You know, Carlos, I respect the privacy of people, even
- 13:24Speaker 4: my children. I think they're entitled to do what they
- 13:26Speaker 4: want to do. Part of me was like, Okay, I'm
- 13:29Speaker 4: going to be talking to Carlos.
- 13:29Speaker 3: Maybe I should just ask them.
- 13:31Speaker 4: You know, I know it's going to be an awkward
- 13:33Speaker 4: thing for him, you know, so I don't. I've never
- 13:37Speaker 4: got into their personal lives of what they're doing sexually,
- 13:41Speaker 4: you know or not. Yeah, I just and maybe and again,
- 13:45Speaker 4: Like I said, Carlos, part of me wants so bad
- 13:48Speaker 4: to believe that this is just another stunt of hers
- 13:52Speaker 4: and that it's not true.
- 13:53Speaker 3: But you know, I was talking to Robin the other day.
- 13:56Speaker 3: She said, well, don't be naive, she reies.
- 14:00Speaker 2: I is, you know, because does Robin. Does Robin think
- 14:04Speaker 2: it's true?
- 14:05Speaker 3: Well, yeah, of course she does.
- 14:06Speaker 2: What about Giselle?
- 14:08Speaker 4: This you probably talked to Gizelle. That's where Robin would
- 14:11Speaker 4: know her information from. Okay, coming from Gazelle don't mean
- 14:16Speaker 4: it's necessarily true either, because her and actually sit in
- 14:18Speaker 4: the laboratory and create stories for everybody except themselves.
- 14:21Speaker 3: Really, so it is what it is, you know.
- 14:30Speaker 1: I know, why, why why do you say that Gizelle
- 14:38Speaker 1: and Ashley be in the laboratory cooking up storylines.
- 14:42Speaker 4: I mean, like, honestly, Carlos, this the way that this
- 14:48Speaker 4: this group has evolved.
- 14:50Speaker 3: It's so crazy to me.
- 14:52Speaker 4: It's like I remember years ago, it was Cynthia's fiftieth birthday.
- 14:57Speaker 4: I was in Atlanta. I was at her party and
- 15:00Speaker 4: that was my first time seeing Atlanta film. And then
- 15:04Speaker 4: the next day we're hanging out and the thing was
- 15:07Speaker 4: there were no cameras, but it was.
- 15:08Speaker 3: The same people, you know what I'm saying.
- 15:11Speaker 4: And they were shady in real life just as they
- 15:15Speaker 4: were on television. They were who they were, you know,
- 15:19Speaker 4: Whereas like now I find like these other shows like Potomac,
- 15:23Speaker 4: they have these characters that come in and they want
- 15:25Speaker 4: to be a character, and they don't want to live
- 15:27Speaker 4: their real lives, you know, and so or they'll dictate
- 15:32Speaker 4: what part of their lives that they want to live.
- 15:35Speaker 4: I would say for myself, when I was on the show,
- 15:37Speaker 4: I was willing to open up my life. I was
- 15:39Speaker 4: going through a divorce and literally wasn't, but I was
- 15:42Speaker 4: going through. I have always been open to my reality.
- 15:48Speaker 4: I have offered so many things that was declined because
- 15:51Speaker 4: and they were good stories, you know, stories like I
- 15:54Speaker 4: wanted to my kids had siblings, they didn't know that
- 15:57Speaker 4: they were going to be meeting for the first time.
- 15:59Speaker 4: I wanted to do on national television because you know what,
- 16:02Speaker 4: a lot of people have that same story, and I
- 16:05Speaker 4: wanted to.
- 16:06Speaker 3: Go through the whole process. I was declined.
- 16:09Speaker 4: It's so many things that real life stuff that I'm declined.
- 16:12Speaker 4: But then you have these ladies who are doing this
- 16:15Speaker 4: fake television. And so for me, when you look at
- 16:18Speaker 4: me season one to three, that's when Potomac was still
- 16:22Speaker 4: real in my mind. And then then it's this whole
- 16:27Speaker 4: other self production stuff that started taking place. So when
- 16:30Speaker 4: I'm there, I'm not engaged because I'm a real chick,
- 16:33Speaker 4: you know what I'm saying. So it's hard for me
- 16:35Speaker 4: to engage in the fakery of it all. Like even
- 16:39Speaker 4: this season, everybody's going for Stacy. It's like Stacy's a liar,
- 16:44Speaker 4: Stacy Stacy Stacy, and I'm just like this is all
- 16:47Speaker 4: y'all got, like come on, Like.
- 16:49Speaker 3: What's it was? The weirdest thing to me.
- 16:52Speaker 4: Literally, every time I went to a film, they were
- 16:55Speaker 4: going at Stacy, going at Stacy. The last time it
- 16:58Speaker 4: was Angels, they were going at angel you know, and
- 17:01Speaker 4: it was just like, Okay, it's it's it's just it's
- 17:06Speaker 4: so fake. It's so you know, I would say scripted,
- 17:10Speaker 4: but the acting is so bad. But it's so I'm
- 17:15Speaker 4: just there, Carlos, I promise you. I'm just I can't
- 17:17Speaker 4: engage with all that fakeness. I really can't.
- 17:21Speaker 1: So well, let me ask you this, Who do you
- 17:25Speaker 1: think is responsible for the fakeness that you said you see?
- 17:29Speaker 3: I don't know.
- 17:29Speaker 4: Because I think often these women they live their storylines, right,
- 17:35Speaker 4: the fake storylines. They live it, you know, like if
- 17:38Speaker 4: whatever they decide that season that they're going to portray, they.
- 17:41Speaker 3: Live it like it's the truth.
- 17:43Speaker 4: Like you'll talk to them and though live by that
- 17:46Speaker 4: fake storyline, you know, So even though you're just like,
- 17:50Speaker 4: come on now, but.
- 17:54Speaker 3: It's just different. It's different.
- 17:57Speaker 4: It's not Atlanta. I don't know about the other shows.
- 17:59Speaker 4: Don't about Lanta now. I'm just talking Aboutlanta before the
- 18:02Speaker 4: one that I witnessed. Those girls were the truth, you
- 18:06Speaker 4: know what.
- 18:06Speaker 3: I'm saying, what the truth?
- 18:08Speaker 4: And everybody wants to be Niani, you know, just oh
- 18:11Speaker 4: she wanted to be Nini. You know, everybody wants to
- 18:13Speaker 4: be Niani. There's only one Nini. I'm sorry, can't be
- 18:16Speaker 4: duplicated ever, you know what I'm saying. Your question was
- 18:19Speaker 4: about why hadn't do we finish that? Why I hadn't
- 18:23Speaker 4: told Jackson?
- 18:24Speaker 1: Yeah, Well the end is you haven't asked Jackson about
- 18:27Speaker 1: the validity of this, of this sexual relationship or what
- 18:32Speaker 1: have you.
- 18:34Speaker 2: Because you, number.
- 18:37Speaker 1: One, you said you don't talk to Jackson about or
- 18:39Speaker 1: your only your children.
- 18:40Speaker 2: You don't talk to your kids about what they do
- 18:41Speaker 2: in the bed room.
- 18:42Speaker 3: No, I don't. I don't talk to anybody about what
- 18:44Speaker 3: they do in their bedroom.
- 18:45Speaker 4: I don't care. I only care about what's in my bedroom. Okay,
- 18:48Speaker 4: that's it. You're not not much going on there.
- 18:54Speaker 1: But girl, with that, with that blode, honey, you maybe
- 18:58Speaker 1: having more counters. So you did bring up something that
- 19:06Speaker 1: people have been saying online, and I want to give
- 19:09Speaker 1: to what Stacey said in my interview with her recently
- 19:13Speaker 1: as well. People are saying online that look, yes, Jackson
- 19:19Speaker 1: is twenty seven, Ashley's thirty seven at the time of
- 19:23Speaker 1: the kiss. He was twenty five, she was thirty five.
- 19:27Speaker 1: You've known Ashley at least for ten years, so people
- 19:30Speaker 1: are saying he was fifteen when you joined the show,
- 19:33Speaker 1: she was twenty five. People, these are what people are
- 19:37Speaker 1: saying that look, she watched them grow up, and they
- 19:41Speaker 1: feel like if the roles were reversed that if a
- 19:44Speaker 1: man was friends with a guy and his daughter was
- 19:50Speaker 1: fifteen when he met her and they started kissing her
- 19:55Speaker 1: at twenty five and he's thirty five, a lot of
- 19:58Speaker 1: people would not have the same reaction they're.
- 20:02Speaker 2: Having with Ashley and Jackson. Would you?
- 20:06Speaker 1: Would you say that there is this double standard when
- 20:09Speaker 1: it comes to that.
- 20:10Speaker 4: Absolutely, if a thirty older, ten year older guy came
- 20:18Speaker 4: on to one of Gazelle's daughters, it wouldn't happened. It
- 20:22Speaker 4: wouldn't have happened, you know what I'm saying. That's what
- 20:25Speaker 4: I'm even. The standards are different for different people too.
- 20:30Speaker 3: You know.
- 20:31Speaker 4: So what you might allow for Chariz because this guy's
- 20:36Speaker 4: a living when it comes to me, you can say
- 20:37Speaker 4: whatever you want, the negative, the more negative, the better.
- 20:41Speaker 4: That's how it's been for me on the show. Whereas
- 20:46Speaker 4: the same things that would apply to someone else, they
- 20:50Speaker 4: would handle be handled different. But yeah, somebody I think
- 20:53Speaker 4: like on the show, if someone would have made out
- 20:57Speaker 4: with Gazelle's one of her daughters, we probab wouldnt heard
- 21:00Speaker 4: about it because they wouldn't have wanted that trashiness on
- 21:02Speaker 4: the show. But because it was me and my son,
- 21:07Speaker 4: it was nobody cared. It's like they put allowed that
- 21:11Speaker 4: to happen. But there's so many double standards in so
- 21:13Speaker 4: many departments, and it's really it's it's unfair, you know.
- 21:18Speaker 4: And then like even like with me, I don't do confessionals,
- 21:22Speaker 4: so you're I mean I could, but I haven't done confessionals.
- 21:27Speaker 3: You'll let someone respond.
- 21:29Speaker 4: Like as she said, whatever she said in a confessional
- 21:32Speaker 4: about Jackson, I didn't get an opportunity to clap back
- 21:36Speaker 4: or say anything.
- 21:37Speaker 3: So it's it's not even a balanced playing field. You know.
- 21:41Speaker 4: I come in, I find out about this situation, and
- 21:45Speaker 4: then well, you know, she just drops this little bomb
- 21:48Speaker 4: on me that I really didn't care about.
- 21:50Speaker 3: But in my head.
- 21:53Speaker 4: And one thing I will say, I stay in my head,
- 21:55Speaker 4: and I probably stay in it a little bit too much.
- 21:57Speaker 4: I'm always concerned about how oh I'm perceived, you know.
- 22:02Speaker 4: I think oftentimes when I respond to certain ways, everyone
- 22:05Speaker 4: wants me to be a third strep.
- 22:06Speaker 3: Oh, she's shesty, wants to you know, she wants a
- 22:11Speaker 3: fluid or whatever.
- 22:12Speaker 4: I'm like, they have no idea how much I've literally
- 22:16Speaker 4: turned down my whole my whole purpose with Potomac, and
- 22:20Speaker 4: maybe I should give up on doing it. Is trying
- 22:22Speaker 4: to make it look like a classy show, you know,
- 22:25Speaker 4: like give it am beyond, give it style, give it
- 22:30Speaker 4: some class. Potomac initially was supposed to be like the
- 22:33Speaker 4: black version of Beverly Hills, you know, And every time
- 22:38Speaker 4: I turn around and eating out these aluminum plates, It's
- 22:41Speaker 4: like there's no you know, people watch I mean, Housewives
- 22:46Speaker 4: used to be lifestyle, right, it was lifestyle, So there's
- 22:50Speaker 4: no lifestyle of Potomac. Okay, those what the people in Potomac,
- 22:58Speaker 4: the show they call it?
- 22:59Speaker 3: How was a poor Toomac?
- 23:04Speaker 2: Sarie?
- 23:05Speaker 4: You know, I'm just a messager, Okay, Okay, Well there
- 23:13Speaker 4: you go to Sarise.
- 23:14Speaker 1: So one of the things that occurred in my interview
- 23:17Speaker 1: with Stacy Rush, she didn't make a comment.
- 23:21Speaker 2: I'm sure you saw the clip. If you haven't, watched
- 23:23Speaker 2: the whole interview where.
- 23:24Speaker 1: She she did say, you know, I you know, when
- 23:29Speaker 1: she's describing how Ashley you know, slept with her son
- 23:34Speaker 1: or kiss her son.
- 23:35Speaker 2: Again, we don't know what the truth is, but.
- 23:36Speaker 1: Ashley said they slept together, hooked up rather but Stacey said, verbatim,
- 23:42Speaker 1: she feels like it's it's once your friend is a
- 23:49Speaker 1: child when you met them, they will always be a
- 23:52Speaker 1: child in your eyes. Stacy said that she thinks it's girl.
- 23:56Speaker 1: She say, ew yuck, thet a rough if Ashley feels
- 24:02Speaker 1: the need to hook over her friend's son. If you
- 24:05Speaker 1: saw the clip, what did you think about what Stacy
- 24:08Speaker 1: had to say?
- 24:08Speaker 3: He was on point absolutely one correct, because that's how
- 24:13Speaker 3: people like me think. It is disgusting.
- 24:17Speaker 4: It's like just I you know, because I'm I have
- 24:20Speaker 4: friends who have attractive sons ill like I can't even imagine.
- 24:25Speaker 3: I don't even want to hug them too tight, you
- 24:28Speaker 3: know what.
- 24:28Speaker 4: I'm saying, because I just give a little little dap
- 24:31Speaker 4: or something, you know, but.
- 24:33Speaker 3: I can't look at them in that way, you know.
- 24:36Speaker 4: And to take it a step further and to not
- 24:39Speaker 4: be ashamed of it and to tell the world about it,
- 24:42Speaker 4: like that's something else, like if you really did do that,
- 24:45Speaker 4: you should have just went to your grave with it
- 24:47Speaker 4: and not tell anybody. No one, we would not know
- 24:50Speaker 4: because Jackson for sure would not have told anybody, you know.
- 24:54Speaker 4: So yes, but Stacey was right on point.
- 24:58Speaker 2: Have you heard from Ashley all?
- 25:00Speaker 3: No, I have not. I was supposed to. She reminded
- 25:04Speaker 3: me to her holiday party, which I normally go every year.
- 25:08Speaker 3: I was sick this year.
- 25:10Speaker 2: Ah, you are sick of her or sick like I
- 25:16Speaker 2: was both?
- 25:19Speaker 4: I was both, But I'm glad I didn't go because
- 25:22Speaker 4: even then I didn't know the full story, you know
- 25:25Speaker 4: what I'm saying. Like, so when one person had told
- 25:29Speaker 4: me that she was going around telling people that they
- 25:32Speaker 4: actually had, but I hadn't heard it anywhere else, So
- 25:36Speaker 4: that kind of.
- 25:38Speaker 3: Kind of changed.
- 25:40Speaker 4: I don't I really don't need to come to your
- 25:42Speaker 4: house now, you know ever.
- 25:44Speaker 5: But.
- 25:47Speaker 4: So I didn't go because I haven't talked to her,
- 25:50Speaker 4: like even as a friend. Again, if she's going to
- 25:52Speaker 4: go on these on this little press tour telling everybody
- 25:55Speaker 4: she know my son, you would think she would at
- 25:57Speaker 4: least have the decency to say to me, call me
- 26:00Speaker 4: up and say, hey girl, this is what's going down?
- 26:02Speaker 4: You know what I'm saying to me, it's like a
- 26:05Speaker 4: constant jab like every time she doesn't it's Carlos is disrespectful.
- 26:13Speaker 4: It is There's just no way you can sugarcoat it.
- 26:17Speaker 4: There's no way that I could. I mean again, yeah,
- 26:20Speaker 4: he can do whatever he want to do, but in
- 26:22Speaker 4: terms of girl code and friendship, it's disrespectful. And to me,
- 26:28Speaker 4: it shows me how you feel about me as a friend,
- 26:31Speaker 4: because now you had you were willing to lose our
- 26:36Speaker 4: friendship over telling the world that you slept with my son.
- 26:40Speaker 4: It just tells me how you feel about me as
- 26:42Speaker 4: a person. It has nothing to do with Jackson at
- 26:44Speaker 4: this point. It has to do with how you value friendship,
- 26:49Speaker 4: your your mode of respect. You know, she has no
- 26:52Speaker 4: moral compass, you know, and it's it's it's sad.
- 27:00Speaker 2: When it comes to your friendship with Ashley.
- 27:02Speaker 1: Do you think you want to based on everything that's transpired,
- 27:05Speaker 1: do you believe that Ashley was ever your friend?
- 27:09Speaker 3: No?
- 27:11Speaker 4: No, I think one thing about me. I remember the
- 27:15Speaker 4: first Christmas party and one of the Atlanta girls was
- 27:19Speaker 4: at the party and she said to me, you know,
- 27:22Speaker 4: because people know I'm I think people can see my innocence.
- 27:25Speaker 4: So she said to me, these are not your friends.
- 27:30Speaker 4: No one is your friend. And at the time they
- 27:33Speaker 4: all were my friends. I called Giselle. I mean, you know,
- 27:36Speaker 4: I'm the reason that the show was put to I
- 27:40Speaker 4: got the show together. Like, I'm really thinking, these are
- 27:42Speaker 4: my friends. They were up until we started doing that show.
- 27:47Speaker 4: And when she was saying it to me, I didn't, Oh,
- 27:51Speaker 4: she doesn't know me. You know, everybody likes sheris. You know,
- 27:55Speaker 4: I'm the fun girl and I'm a I love my
- 27:59Speaker 4: friends hard, so there's no room for questioning my loyalty
- 28:04Speaker 4: to you as a friend. I love my friends hard.
- 28:07Speaker 4: So I'm thinking, these are my girls used to my
- 28:10Speaker 4: road dogs, you know what I'm saying. Even when I
- 28:12Speaker 4: wasn't filming, we were still friends. We're still hanging out
- 28:15Speaker 4: because they're my friends, you know, at least I thought.
- 28:19Speaker 4: And then it's like this happens and it makes you
- 28:22Speaker 4: look back and other things start clicking and making sense, like, Okay, no,
- 28:28Speaker 4: she clearly was not ever my friend. She was a
- 28:33Speaker 4: coworkers they call it.
- 28:37Speaker 1: Is there any girl that's on the show right now
- 28:41Speaker 1: that you do consider friend?
- 28:46Speaker 4: Okay, So Stacey and I used to be friends before
- 28:50Speaker 4: the show. We were friends like friends. I met Stacey.
- 28:57Speaker 4: I know I was going through my divorce when she
- 28:59Speaker 4: and I were friends. We used to hang out whatever,
- 29:04Speaker 4: and I actually liked Stacy, by the way, But one
- 29:10Speaker 4: thing that the common denominator to all of my downfalls
- 29:15Speaker 4: with that show leads to one person that she'll remain nameless.
- 29:20Speaker 4: Got to her and gave their spit on everything, and
- 29:29Speaker 4: she when I came to film. First of all, let
- 29:31Speaker 4: me just tell you when the first season ended, I
- 29:33Speaker 4: reached out to Stacy. I was surprised Stacy didn't reach
- 29:36Speaker 4: out to me to tell me she's gonna be on
- 29:37Speaker 4: the show, which she doesn't have to, that's a prerogative.
- 29:41Speaker 4: But then after watching her on the show, I sent
- 29:43Speaker 4: her text and I said, you know, congratulations, you were
- 29:47Speaker 4: breath of fresh air, because that's how I felt. She
- 29:49Speaker 4: has a breath of fresh air. She's like, oh my gosh,
- 29:51Speaker 4: she was. Let's get together. We went to dinner and
- 29:54Speaker 4: she was a little, you know, unsettled because how the
- 29:58Speaker 4: girls came at her, and you know, she was having
- 30:00Speaker 4: a hard time. And I sat down with Stacey and
- 30:03Speaker 4: gave her some hard, good advice. She listened to everything
- 30:07Speaker 4: I told her too, Okay, And I'm not giving myself
- 30:10Speaker 4: credit for her because she's.
- 30:12Speaker 3: Doing well, but she got it when I.
- 30:16Speaker 4: Shared with her, and she's like, oh, Sweetz, you should
- 30:19Speaker 4: come back. And I was like, it doesn't for me.
- 30:21Speaker 4: It's different for me, you know what I'm saying that
- 30:24Speaker 4: that thing, that ship didn't sale. But if I knew
- 30:28Speaker 4: what I do now, the outcome for me would have
- 30:30Speaker 4: been a lot different. I was playing checkers, they were
- 30:32Speaker 4: playing chess, you know. And unfortunately, like for some reason,
- 30:38Speaker 4: when you get a new girl on a showy they
- 30:42Speaker 4: like to haze them and all the things, and it
- 30:46Speaker 4: seems a little insecure. I don't like a little insecurity.
- 30:50Speaker 4: I know everybody's fighting to keep their space on that show,
- 30:55Speaker 4: but the hazing that they do, like it's crazy. And
- 31:00Speaker 4: to just not like people, not to like them, and
- 31:02Speaker 4: to say all these horrible things about people, fact or fiction.
- 31:06Speaker 4: Most of the fiction, you know, it's just it's just horrible.
- 31:08Speaker 4: But so, Stacy was kind of told something by one
- 31:15Speaker 4: of my friends that made her feel that I betrayed
- 31:21Speaker 4: her trusts. I don't know what was told because it's
- 31:24Speaker 4: probably a lie.
- 31:27Speaker 1: It's the person she said told her still on the show. Yeah,
- 31:31Speaker 1: they're a housewife. Yeah, okay.
- 31:35Speaker 4: So and even though she doesn't have the greatest relationship
- 31:38Speaker 4: with this person, she because I in our conversation, I
- 31:41Speaker 4: told her about the person. So this person tells her
- 31:47Speaker 4: whatever she has to tell her. Stacy believes whatever she
- 31:50Speaker 4: told her. And so when I go to film now,
- 31:52Speaker 4: Stacy's not talking to me, and I'm like, there had
- 31:57Speaker 4: been nothing, that's why. And I probably shouldn't have done it.
- 32:00Speaker 4: I thought, Oh, in my head, I'm thinking, oh, you
- 32:02Speaker 4: want to be van to me. Let me give you
- 32:03Speaker 4: a reason to be mad. And then I made I
- 32:05Speaker 4: said this thing about whatever I said on the show.
- 32:08Speaker 4: But I actually really do like Stacy, even though I
- 32:10Speaker 4: haven't talked her in a while. I think she's great television.
- 32:14Speaker 4: I don't think that.
- 32:18Speaker 3: I don't.
- 32:20Speaker 4: I think that it's hard for people that when you
- 32:23Speaker 4: see success coming, those women are going to try to
- 32:28Speaker 4: eat you up and spit you out, you know what
- 32:30Speaker 4: I'm saying. And I knew that her first season. Stacy asked,
- 32:33Speaker 4: like I said.
- 32:34Speaker 3: Breath of fresh air.
- 32:35Speaker 4: And you know why, because it wasn't all the fakeness,
- 32:39Speaker 4: you know, like, it wasn't like she's like trying to
- 32:42Speaker 4: be relevant, not a little. The story with the guy
- 32:44Speaker 4: was a little crazy, but at the same time it's funny,
- 32:50Speaker 4: but you know, but it's Stacy's sold to beat her.
- 32:53Speaker 3: It's just so different. But yeah, so I Stacy.
- 33:00Speaker 4: In terms of friendship on the cast, I real friendship.
- 33:08Speaker 3: I don't.
- 33:09Speaker 4: I wouldn't say I have a real thorough friendship with anybody.
- 33:14Speaker 1: Not even just Zaiah coul You too, seem to be
- 33:15Speaker 1: the closest.
- 33:17Speaker 3: I thought I did too.
- 33:19Speaker 4: I think that this stuff is a business and people
- 33:23Speaker 4: will do and say anything to be where they are
- 33:28Speaker 4: and they don't care. Like when you have real friendship,
- 33:32Speaker 4: you care about your friends. You know what I'm saying.
- 33:34Speaker 4: You don't try to set your friends up for a moment.
- 33:39Speaker 4: You know, you don't lie on your friends. I remember
- 33:43Speaker 4: when I was uh put in the friend group, in
- 33:48Speaker 4: the friend category I was on. I had gotten a call.
- 33:51Speaker 4: I'm in Canada with my kids at a Drake concert
- 33:54Speaker 4: and I get this phone call.
- 33:56Speaker 3: It's a conference call.
- 33:58Speaker 4: It's various people on the line, and this is going
- 34:02Speaker 4: into season three, I guess. And so right before we
- 34:06Speaker 4: filmed three, and I was told that because I wasn't
- 34:10Speaker 4: my authentic self that they were making me a friend.
- 34:14Speaker 4: And so then I was just like, so, if I'm
- 34:17Speaker 4: not being me, who am I being? And the person
- 34:20Speaker 4: on the phone that was leading the conversation, I didn't
- 34:23Speaker 4: even know who I was talking to. So I'm just like,
- 34:26Speaker 4: I'm sorry, I don't even know who you are.
- 34:27Speaker 3: So how do you know so.
- 34:28Speaker 4: Much about me? Like, I don't even know who you are?
- 34:32Speaker 4: How are you telling me how I'm not being my
- 34:35Speaker 4: authentic self? Well, I learned later that my friends created
- 34:41Speaker 4: a narrative of me that wasn't true.
- 34:45Speaker 3: And when they.
- 34:46Speaker 4: Yeah, and when things happened the way they did, they
- 34:52Speaker 4: tried to go back in, but it was too late
- 34:54Speaker 4: from what I was told. So, no, I, Robin is
- 35:01Speaker 4: not on a show. Robin and I, I would say,
- 35:03Speaker 4: are genuinely friends.
- 35:05Speaker 3: Mecca.
- 35:06Speaker 4: I actually love Mecca. She and I are very good friends.
- 35:13Speaker 4: Monique and I were friends on the show initially, but
- 35:17Speaker 4: that mutual, that person that destroys stuff when it comes
- 35:21Speaker 4: to series. That's why she and I are not. We
- 35:23Speaker 4: ended up not friends.
- 35:27Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm stuck on this.
- 35:28Speaker 1: So just so I'm clear, you're saying to me, there's
- 35:31Speaker 1: a current housewife, a flute holder on Potomac and this
- 35:36Speaker 1: one person you're saying to me, Bruin your friend Chamnella
- 35:42Speaker 1: with Stacy, but also with Monique.
- 35:44Speaker 3: M Yeah.
- 35:48Speaker 4: And the this year when they had their sit down,
- 35:53Speaker 4: they didn't air it, but I was told that I
- 35:56Speaker 4: was the reason why they weren't friends. They decided to
- 35:59Speaker 4: blame on me. I could blame for everything, Carlos, I'm
- 36:02Speaker 4: the reason why they're not friends. And then I was
- 36:05Speaker 4: saying to production, I wanted to have to sit down
- 36:09Speaker 4: with Monique like that if anything to me that was
- 36:14Speaker 4: well overdue, you know what I'm saying. I thought that
- 36:17Speaker 4: that would be interesting, and they kept procrastinating when it
- 36:20Speaker 4: never happened.
- 36:20Speaker 3: But and I was gonna be real about it, because when.
- 36:26Speaker 4: Giselle and I had a conversation on camera where Giselle's
- 36:29Speaker 4: telling me something about me being the reason for the
- 36:36Speaker 4: issues between them, I said, no, no, no, let's talk about
- 36:39Speaker 4: this that it's not true. She suddenly she couldn't remember
- 36:43Speaker 4: why her and Monique fell out.
- 36:47Speaker 2: I do.
- 36:49Speaker 4: I remember everything, and I'm going to tell the truth
- 36:52Speaker 4: about everything. One of the big did we not forget
- 36:56Speaker 4: the binder? Like I had nothing to do with none
- 36:59Speaker 4: of this stuff. So I got blamed for stuff I got.
- 37:02Speaker 4: I was always the scapegoat to get stuff on the show,
- 37:06Speaker 4: like even the stuff with the trainer. Giselle says to Monique,
- 37:11Speaker 4: are you not talking to sheeries because she's going around
- 37:13Speaker 4: telling everybody about you and a trainer.
- 37:16Speaker 3: I never said nothing that she's old by no damn trainer.
- 37:20Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying. But she wanted to get
- 37:22Speaker 3: that on the show. Nobody was even gonna talk about that.
- 37:25Speaker 4: The person who was talking about it was Monique's best friend,
- 37:29Speaker 4: and Robin called me, and you know, I'm friends with everybody,
- 37:34Speaker 4: so they knew something was going down. So it was
- 37:37Speaker 4: just like, something's going on. We know you can find
- 37:39Speaker 4: out what it is. So I put on my little
- 37:42Speaker 4: detective cab and then the girls. The girl called me
- 37:44Speaker 4: and told me everything I told Robin.
- 37:46Speaker 2: That was it.
- 37:47Speaker 3: I was done with it.
- 37:48Speaker 4: I wasn't even filming that year. Next thing, I know,
- 37:52Speaker 4: I'm saying that the baby is Chris might not be
- 37:56Speaker 4: the father. I mean, I'm blamed for everything. I never
- 37:59Speaker 4: said that. I don't I'm not in their bedroom. I
- 38:02Speaker 4: don't know who the father of anybody's child is. Like,
- 38:06Speaker 4: but because she wanted to put that out there that
- 38:09Speaker 4: there was a question mark about it, I'm the person
- 38:12Speaker 4: who said it.
- 38:13Speaker 3: No I didn't. I never said that.
- 38:15Speaker 4: So I'm always the fall guy, but I never I'm
- 38:19Speaker 4: never given I was never given the opportunity to defend myself.
- 38:22Speaker 3: So for people.
- 38:24Speaker 4: Watching the show, I look like I said all this
- 38:28Speaker 4: stuff that I never said because I never got a
- 38:30Speaker 4: chance to defend myself.
- 38:33Speaker 1: You know.
- 38:33Speaker 3: So it's what it is?
- 38:36Speaker 2: How good?
- 38:36Speaker 3: Okay?
- 38:37Speaker 1: So my last question for you is not that you
- 38:40Speaker 1: were able to you know, tell us or to side
- 38:43Speaker 1: the story, because you know a lot of people did say,
- 38:45Speaker 1: oh serie, you had every opportunity to read Ashley in
- 38:49Speaker 1: her faith, but you waited until after the show air.
- 38:51Speaker 1: Now now we know why everything transpired the way it did.
- 38:57Speaker 1: You know, now we know that, what do you have
- 39:01Speaker 1: to say about this misconception that people do have of you?
- 39:06Speaker 2: Sharies, Like you said, people think you're liar, they think.
- 39:08Speaker 1: You're thirsty, they think these things about you.
- 39:12Speaker 2: What is it that you would like.
- 39:14Speaker 1: For people to know once overall who you really are
- 39:18Speaker 1: and why you think people got you confused?
- 39:22Speaker 4: You know, I, like I said, I just what I
- 39:27Speaker 4: reflect and I go back and review how things transpired
- 39:33Speaker 4: over the years. I just feel like when you have
- 39:40Speaker 4: people that come into this circle that say, even like
- 39:46Speaker 4: for the new.
- 39:46Speaker 3: Ones, if you're if you if you're in a.
- 39:50Speaker 4: Sound relationship, if you have a little bit of coins
- 39:53Speaker 4: in your pocket, if you have something going, they like
- 39:55Speaker 4: to break you down.
- 39:57Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying.
- 39:58Speaker 4: When I came in, when I the first season, and
- 40:02Speaker 4: I'm not I don't want to sound.
- 40:05Speaker 2: Like I'm bitter, No, not.
- 40:08Speaker 3: Bitter, but superfessional. I had the nicest home I had.
- 40:16Speaker 4: Those girls didn't even have attorneys. I did their contracts.
- 40:18Speaker 4: My attorney did their contracts. Okay, the everything was in
- 40:23Speaker 4: my home. Our photo shoot was in my house. The
- 40:26Speaker 4: show there was you know how it is first season shows.
- 40:28Speaker 4: There's not a lot of money.
- 40:29Speaker 3: So all these things. It's so it seemed like, I.
- 40:32Speaker 4: Think it looked like it was about me, and people decided, no,
- 40:38Speaker 4: we gonna make it about us. Karen and Giselle aligned
- 40:42Speaker 4: and decided we're gonna erasereiks. They created a whole new narrative. Okay,
- 40:50Speaker 4: and you probably don't know this, Carlos, Like, at one point,
- 40:53Speaker 4: I imagine this, I'm like a self appointed casting person
- 40:58Speaker 4: for the show. Okay, I'm help Adrian. I'm helping Adrian.
- 41:02Speaker 4: I'm setting up meetings and Starbucks meeting people because at
- 41:05Speaker 4: first we were trying to make it Potomac's people, and
- 41:08Speaker 4: I told him from the door, I said, Potomac people
- 41:09Speaker 4: are not gonna do the show. They don't have to,
- 41:12Speaker 4: you know what I'm saying, They're not.
- 41:14Speaker 3: And so.
- 41:16Speaker 4: Where it got to a point, I'm interviewing these people.
- 41:20Speaker 4: I'm having casting parties I had. It was fun for me,
- 41:22Speaker 4: you know, And like I said, I called Gazelle, I
- 41:26Speaker 4: called Gazelle, Robin, I called everybody.
- 41:29Speaker 3: I didn't call Ashley.
- 41:30Speaker 4: I didn't know Ashley, but everybody else on the cast
- 41:34Speaker 4: was a result of me in some capacity.
- 41:38Speaker 3: Right. But then when.
- 41:39Speaker 4: You go to shoot the pilot, you come up with
- 41:43Speaker 4: an idea to eliminate cheries. They were trying to make
- 41:46Speaker 4: a Jack and Jail. I'm the only one that's not
- 41:49Speaker 4: Jack and Jail. Okay, Gizelle's Jack and Jail, Karen's Jack
- 41:53Speaker 4: and Jill as she wasn't Jack and Jail, but she.
- 41:57Speaker 3: Had and trying to get Katie.
- 42:01Speaker 4: They were recruiting Katie to get her kids involved in
- 42:04Speaker 4: Jack and Jill.
- 42:05Speaker 3: That was the storyline.
- 42:06Speaker 4: However, like, and my thing is, how are you doing?
- 42:10Speaker 4: I'm not a part of Jack and Jail? Like, how
- 42:12Speaker 4: do you come? That was the beginning of trying to
- 42:14Speaker 4: exclude me from the ship, from from the group.
- 42:19Speaker 1: You know, you felt that, you felt that even during
- 42:21Speaker 1: the pilot. You feel strongly that even then before the
- 42:25Speaker 1: show got green Live, before the Showman aired, You've always
- 42:28Speaker 1: felt that Giselle and Karen were trying to ice you out.
- 42:31Speaker 4: Yeah, oh yeah, for sure, for sure, for sure. Fortunately
- 42:38Speaker 4: Jack and Jill wasn't playing those games. They said, now
- 42:41Speaker 4: y'all can't say Jack and Jail, okay, so their little
- 42:44Speaker 4: idea that went away, so they couldn't even But.
- 42:47Speaker 2: Why do you think, okay, you think they were trying
- 42:50Speaker 2: to ice show off?
- 42:50Speaker 6: What?
- 42:50Speaker 2: What? What is your reason for believing that?
- 42:54Speaker 4: I think I personally felt like, like I said, I
- 43:00Speaker 4: had the home, I had all the things I Walt
- 43:04Speaker 4: connected in Potomac DMB.
- 43:06Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying.
- 43:07Speaker 4: I had all these different things to make this thing
- 43:10Speaker 4: function for other people to shine, just like I honestly
- 43:17Speaker 4: like just don't carrying the name Grandam. That was because
- 43:21Speaker 4: that was her way of dimming my light, so to speak,
- 43:28Speaker 4: well seriously, and I know people are thinking, say what
- 43:30Speaker 4: they want, but it's the truth.
- 43:34Speaker 2: If that's the case. Okay, if that's the case.
- 43:37Speaker 1: If that's the case, a lot of people and I'm people,
- 43:41Speaker 1: if that's the case, how are you able to be
- 43:47Speaker 1: friends with someone if that's if that's what you feel happening?
- 43:49Speaker 4: You know what, Carlos and all honesty before me and everything.
- 43:54Speaker 3: I am God's child, and.
- 43:56Speaker 4: I believe everything that happens in my life happens for
- 43:59Speaker 4: a reason. Most times I don't know why some of
- 44:01Speaker 4: the things that happened happened, but they happened for a reason.
- 44:04Speaker 3: I believe.
- 44:04Speaker 4: Even with the show itself, even you know, I just
- 44:08Speaker 4: feel like knowing that things that were done that people
- 44:15Speaker 4: don't even know that I know about, God makes a
- 44:19Speaker 4: final decision. So I just felt like it wasn't If
- 44:24Speaker 4: it was meant for me to be in that space,
- 44:26Speaker 4: that's where I would be. So I never fought to
- 44:30Speaker 4: retain that space or get it again. But because I
- 44:33Speaker 4: put so much time and energy into the show, I
- 44:36Speaker 4: still wanted it to succeed, you know, and I still
- 44:40Speaker 4: I offered to do things and give other people credit
- 44:44Speaker 4: for it, like organize something and make make it somebody
- 44:46Speaker 4: else's event. I volunteer to do stuff, not even being
- 44:52Speaker 4: a friend or nothing, just because I wanted that show
- 44:55Speaker 4: to be successful. As a black woman. I wanted that
- 45:00Speaker 4: show to be I still saw it as my baby.
- 45:03Speaker 4: I still wanted to do well without me, with or
- 45:06Speaker 4: without me, you know. And that's because I am a
- 45:10Speaker 4: chosen one, Carlos, I am a chosen child of God.
- 45:13Speaker 4: And I don't hate you know. I know that for
- 45:18Speaker 4: me and on the show, I don't have that spirit
- 45:22Speaker 4: of wanting to tear down somebody's relationships, their character. I
- 45:27Speaker 4: am not a character assassinator. I'm just not her.
- 45:31Speaker 3: It doesn't give me.
- 45:32Speaker 4: I don't it doesn't feel good to tear somebody down.
- 45:36Speaker 4: I'm not that girl, you know, so in that realm
- 45:40Speaker 4: I am. But if you say something to me, if
- 45:43Speaker 4: you're coad that baby, I'll come back at you. But
- 45:46Speaker 4: I'm not gonna initiate it. I'm not gonna try to
- 45:48Speaker 4: hurt you.
- 45:50Speaker 3: Karen. I loved Karen as a friend.
- 45:53Speaker 4: Karen and I were really friends at one point. But
- 45:58Speaker 4: I remember a time we were filming We're France, and
- 46:01Speaker 4: one thing I also like for me, I'm sort of
- 46:05Speaker 4: like an impath in a sense where I could feel
- 46:07Speaker 4: hurt when people were hurting, you know. And I remember
- 46:10Speaker 4: We're in France and I'm in a car and then
- 46:12Speaker 4: the scene I'm just looking at my phone. They were
- 46:14Speaker 4: going at Karen and I could feel Karen's pain so clearly.
- 46:18Speaker 4: And when we got to our destination, I remember I
- 46:21Speaker 4: went to Giselle and I said, Okay, that's enough. I said,
- 46:24Speaker 4: she's going through something. I don't know what it is,
- 46:27Speaker 4: but she's going through something. There's some hurt there. Like everybody,
- 46:32Speaker 4: just leave Karen alone, you know. And she was left
- 46:36Speaker 4: alone for the rest of the trip. But it was
- 46:39Speaker 4: just like I literally came into a scenario where I
- 46:44Speaker 4: thought I had I was on a cast of friends
- 46:48Speaker 4: and I wanted us collectively to be the.
- 46:51Speaker 3: Best band in the world. You know what I'm saying.
- 46:54Speaker 2: Yea, And I.
- 46:55Speaker 3: Genuinely cared and genuinely loved my friend.
- 47:01Speaker 4: But yeah, now, just looking at it, it's disheartening.
- 47:08Speaker 3: Sometimes it's hurtful.
- 47:13Speaker 4: When people have literally crucified your character to the point
- 47:18Speaker 4: where when people are when you're talking to people and
- 47:22Speaker 4: like same, it's like, yeah, okay, sure, he's like you,
- 47:26Speaker 4: you know, side out at me and I'm just like,
- 47:28Speaker 4: you know what.
- 47:30Speaker 2: Oh well, I will say this. Listen. One thing about
- 47:34Speaker 2: you that I know for sure is and this is
- 47:37Speaker 2: what we know.
- 47:39Speaker 1: If a topic you are that girl like you, you
- 47:42Speaker 1: don't have to say it.
- 47:43Speaker 2: It's fine.
- 47:45Speaker 1: You really go to these fifty thousand dollars play events,
- 47:50Speaker 1: you know, like you really are involved in the upper
- 47:54Speaker 1: echelone of the world, especially in Potomac. And a lot
- 47:59Speaker 1: of girls in Maryland say, no, Charesa is actually the girl.
- 48:03Speaker 1: So look similar to Nini, because you know Nini when
- 48:07Speaker 1: Atlanta started, she recommended to Kim and charae and and
- 48:10Speaker 1: so so I'll just list producer. So I understand that
- 48:13Speaker 1: you know you want this show to be about friends,
- 48:15Speaker 1: so you do work with somebody to to to categorize
- 48:19Speaker 1: and organize the rest of the situation. Ashley was auditioning
- 48:24Speaker 1: for this show called blussmedd and Hills that we're going
- 48:26Speaker 1: to do it in d C. And so she was
- 48:28Speaker 1: already on Bravos roster for other stuff, which is why
- 48:33Speaker 1: she got the Potomac thing. So look, I will say this,
- 48:37Speaker 1: thank you for your services because you, so we appreciate that.
- 48:43Speaker 1: And listen, I will say this, based on what you
- 48:46Speaker 1: have provided to this show. You know, you are somebody
- 48:51Speaker 1: who I I will say honestly, has always provided great commentary.
- 48:55Speaker 1: I think you're super funny. I do think you're super misunderstood.
- 48:59Speaker 2: But I will see you too.
- 49:01Speaker 5: I am, you know, But that's why, that's why I
- 49:04Speaker 5: always enjoy talking to you, Because listen, I have a
- 49:08Speaker 5: huge platform, so I know how you felt.
- 49:11Speaker 1: You and I had a conversation all the time about
- 49:14Speaker 1: how you felt. And I knew when this whole situation
- 49:17Speaker 1: was happy with Ashley and you made a comment on Instagram,
- 49:21Speaker 1: and you know, we did talk about it on my
- 49:23Speaker 1: show last week month and I live. I knew that
- 49:26Speaker 1: it was time for you to just say your piece
- 49:28Speaker 1: and to say it uninterrupted, to say it with somebody
- 49:31Speaker 1: who you can trust. And I'm happy you were able
- 49:35Speaker 1: to get things off your chest once and for all,
- 49:38Speaker 1: because I do think it's it's necessary and it is
- 49:41Speaker 1: healthy for you and I'm happy you did it.
- 49:45Speaker 4: Yeah, I honestly, I don't you know, I don't do no,
- 49:48Speaker 4: don't I don't do interviews.
- 49:49Speaker 3: Now.
- 49:50Speaker 4: I think my last interview was you. I don't do interviews,
- 49:53Speaker 4: you know, and I really don't. I don't comment on
- 49:57Speaker 4: social media, even less it's positive. But I said about
- 50:01Speaker 4: what I saw the comment like I was in this space.
- 50:05Speaker 4: I was like, oh my god, and it's it's it's
- 50:06Speaker 4: it's so crazy. I think I was overwhelmed with being
- 50:08Speaker 4: misunderstood also, and it's like you don't for me, I
- 50:13Speaker 4: don't have an opportunity to express how I feel or
- 50:18Speaker 4: to give people a better picture, so I want to.
- 50:23Speaker 4: It was funny because they said Shari's breaks are silence.
- 50:26Speaker 4: I really did was at break up my silence. I
- 50:28Speaker 4: was just commented on I wanted to break up my silence.
- 50:33Speaker 4: Oh and I was just like, oh my god. And
- 50:36Speaker 4: you know, and then I saw your people talk about
- 50:40Speaker 4: it all and yeah they were wrong, but you know,
- 50:46Speaker 4: it's like and just to answer another question, why And
- 50:49Speaker 4: I kind of touched on it a little bit, why
- 50:51Speaker 4: would I keep going back? And I that's a good
- 50:55Speaker 4: ask question, you know, like it's almost like an abusive
- 50:59Speaker 4: relate relationship. You know, it's like why do you keep
- 51:02Speaker 4: going back? You know?
- 51:03Speaker 3: Because but I want to every.
- 51:04Speaker 4: Time I go back, I want to believe what they're
- 51:07Speaker 4: telling me is gonna happen.
- 51:08Speaker 3: It just doesn't, you know.
- 51:10Speaker 4: And I just feel like I'm portrayed as the bad
- 51:15Speaker 4: you know, a bad person, not a bad person.
- 51:18Speaker 2: But no, I will say I will say this season.
- 51:20Speaker 1: Listen, this season, I felt like obviously you were portray
- 51:23Speaker 1: as a bad person. I felt like you always feel
- 51:26Speaker 1: like you're being you and I always think this. Now
- 51:28Speaker 1: that you're giving me some backstory, I now do see
- 51:32Speaker 1: things differently in terms of how other people operate around you. Like, listen,
- 51:37Speaker 1: we saw a couple of seasons ago when baby you
- 51:39Speaker 1: and Karen had it how and you are slapping on
- 51:43Speaker 1: the table, like now, now we have a grand understanding, right.
- 51:48Speaker 3: A real I'm a real chick, like say Astley.
- 51:52Speaker 4: For example, when Ashley said King left on me one time,
- 51:56Speaker 4: I was ready to choke the bitch and I said it.
- 51:58Speaker 4: I said, in that five seconds, I'm gonna fuck you up.
- 52:00Speaker 4: And then later on after the season aired, we were
- 52:04Speaker 4: in a restaurant and I said to her, I said, Ashley, like,
- 52:07Speaker 4: for real, I don't play these games. If I say
- 52:10Speaker 4: I'm gonna fuck you up, I'm there. I don't do
- 52:13Speaker 4: fake TV.
- 52:14Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying.
- 52:15Speaker 4: And that was years ago that was that was like,
- 52:19Speaker 4: was it too? I think I might even season two?
- 52:21Speaker 4: But I really wanted to that day. I like, I
- 52:23Speaker 4: really I wanted to choke that girl. I wanted to
- 52:26Speaker 4: take a life.
- 52:26Speaker 2: I So that's what I'm saying.
- 52:32Speaker 3: I'm real. I just don't do fiic shit, you know.
- 52:35Speaker 4: So that again, like with the Ashley thing, if they
- 52:38Speaker 4: wanted a real reaction, she should have told me, yeah.
- 52:40Speaker 3: I slept with Jackson.
- 52:44Speaker 4: She would have gotten one, you know, but she sugarcoated it,
- 52:48Speaker 4: and then on her confessional was a little different. And
- 52:50Speaker 4: then you go on these interviews saying whatever, but you
- 52:53Speaker 4: never said that to me, you know.
- 52:55Speaker 2: So, But look, now we know why she didn't want
- 52:59Speaker 2: to get choub baby.
- 53:02Speaker 3: And I'm too old to be choking people. But I'm
- 53:06Speaker 3: not against it if it's deserving.
- 53:13Speaker 1: Oh I love you so much. Look, thank you so
- 53:16Speaker 1: much for this. I know you're busy enjoying your holiday break.
- 53:21Speaker 1: You know, listen, blonde do have more fun.

- 53:27Speaker 4: So what's your status, Carlos since we last talked?
- 53:31Speaker 3: Oh, look, since we let me interview you for a second.
- 53:39Speaker 2: Why you got somebody to talk for me?
