• 2:02
  Speaker 1: Michael Jordan's son? I didn't planet like that. It wasn't
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: like it was planned like that. I think we were
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: just together a lot with our friends and it just
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: so happened. Listen, larsa b be pimping. I mean, that's
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: that's all I can say. Like she she ain't tricking,
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: if you got it. She did say that she was
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: pregnant majority of her twenties. Yeah, yes, she did say that.
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: She said she has a lot of kids. Yes, yeah,
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: they have four. She said she got with him but
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: he was ten years older than her, right, so do
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: they have kids together? Her and Michael Jordan's son. No, No,
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: it's just kind of awkward because good time she dated
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: with fathers sometimes turning the kids. I think they I
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: think they're just having a good time. They saying it's
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: weird because they're like, you've known this guy since he
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: was a kid. Facts so down with teammates. Yeah, so
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: you was reading him as a man when he was
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: a kid, maybe picked them up from school. That's really
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: disgusting when you put it that way. I mean, really
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: think about it at it's giving. I've watched you, and
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: I've been watching you because you know how sometimes people
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: like when they're in a relationship with another person and
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: that person has a child that isn't theirs, and they
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: kind of start to do things with the child that's
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: kind of gross. Grooming is like industry people doing the
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: industry all the time. It's disgusting. But I've seen it
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: a lot, and it's a word that's supposedly now we
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: can no longer use because people groom? Can we shout out?

• 4:48
  Speaker 1: obviously killing things out here. You were there, you saw,
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: I saw, but I saw that I saw. She wrapped
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: it up with you ain't corny no more? Well you're
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: not calling anymore right now. I would have kept that
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: same energy, though, is that as I did before? Like
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: with that, I wouldn't have been like, okay, and you
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: got money in your corny still Like she didn't say it,
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: she didn't see. He was like, yes you did. Yeah,
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: but I don't think got that that But she was
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: saying that he was kind of like Lane growing up
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: in house as a man. If you call me Lane,
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: that you technically calling me corny. But I would have
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: kept my same There's people who aren't lame. There's popular
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: people growing up that are still corny, no, thousand percent
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: because they called Russell Wilson corny, right, ok call him
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: Lane and just because he cares for his family. So
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: how would you the pine corny? I mean you just do. Yeah,
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: what's the definition of corn I don't know. That's a
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: good question. I know what it is you trying to
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: joke in and it's it's not it's not landing, okay
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: to me? Like your jokes aren't landing. You're probably you
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: have awkward moments, okay, which is like okay, guys, or
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: you do that. It's like say you try to sit
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: down and he pull your chair out and you fall
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: a ground and your heels and your dress and then
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: it's supposed to be a joke, but it was like
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: too far, like doing I feel like in high school terms,
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: like if you weren't a part of like the cool group,
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: like if you didn't play football, or if you weren't
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: one of those people that was like skipping class or
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: living life on the edge for a high school or
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: they would call you corny if you were someone who
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: was focused on your books, if you were somebody who
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: like didn't maybe that's around with a lot of girls
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: or guys or whatever. They just felt like you were corny,
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: Like you just can't you know what? My definition of
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: corny is that if you're trying to pretend to be
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: somebody that you not, that's my definition of corny. Try
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: to fit in right. But I understand. I understand how
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: he felt because when he was in school, he was
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: talking about being an actor and he was going to
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: scool his headshots and stuff, like that, so I can
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: kind of relate to him. That's why I was like, yeah,
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: you go, Michael B. Jordan, because when I was in school,
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: I was telling people this is what I was going
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: to be doing for a living. And he came from
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: North That's the hood. Like people don't understand that's really
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: the hood. He was focused, not interested in going to
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: the high school parties. And I think people in high school,
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: if you can think back to that time, they would
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: consider you corny. Oh you don't want to come to
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: the party. You ain't skipping class to go to the movie,
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: you ain't smoking no dopeish school. That's me. I don't
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: forget nothing. I don't forget nothing, But you don't forget
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: how people feel. I don't forget how people make me feel. Yeah,
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: and I mean I still felt like he carried himself
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: in a good way. He did it, so he did it,
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: so did the interview. He did it, So don't still
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: he didn't happen. He didn't happen to because you know
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: what I would have did. I would have been like
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: the corny kid, right and I would have walked off, Yeah,
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: because you're petty. Because but the end that interview was
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: so crazy though, like the way it ended and the
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: way he walked off. I was like, oh, I can
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: also more, You're not corny anymore. I was over here
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: that I feel like that want to corny and she
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: came yeah. And that was the gratifying moment, was it not?
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: It was That's why you got to watch what you
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: say to people, because I assumed that she thought, this
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: is Michael B. Jorge. There's no way he's listening on
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: things that I'm saying. And he said, oh I heard it.
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: I liked the moment of the exchange. I like she
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: stood on business and he still on business. But I
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: didn't agree with I would have not interviewed him. I
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: would have interviewed everybody. I mean, you work for a station,
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: a company that is requiring you to do this interview,
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: you gotta want to do it. She knew she would
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: have anything. Would you would have kept that same energy
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: or would you would have just like faked it out?
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: If I have to do it, if I'm obligating in
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: my station makes me I would have kept the same energy. Yea, Hey,
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: remember we went to high school and he was a
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: little corny kid. Yeah, now exactly, you know what I
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: don't think she should have brought up the fact that
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: they knew each other from high school, because if she
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: had brought it up first. First, remember it was a
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: corny kid from back, No she said. She said, yea, yeah,
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: we go way back from high school. He said, yeah.
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: Remember I'm the corny kid from high school. That stands
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: he brought it up. He would have brought it up anyway.
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: I was just way like popping his ship. He was, No,
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: he was. He was popping the ship. Yeah, he's coming
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: out the red carpet see and all the media outlets
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: that he sees her. He's like, I got you back.
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: And first of all, when I was there, you would
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: have thought Michael Jackson touched the red carpet the only
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: thing he was. And that's how it feels about That's
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: how I feel about Russell Wilson. People talk all this stuff,
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: but when he comes around, they'd be flocking. Oh yeah,
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: Russell still didn't really bad last NFL season, the Sierra's
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: Husband player. You would call him corny every time you
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: said Russell Wilson, I kept thinking, Russell Westmon, what happened?
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: What did he do? Yeah, but you know they called
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: Sierra's husband corny Like, Yeah, I feel like they seems
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: like like he was raised with very lovable I think
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: they put the labeled corny on anybody who's supposed to
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: do corny until until Michael we joined the interview with
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: a girl long time. It kind of chilled out, kind
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: of feels it out the term too. I just think
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: we all grew. I think corny was like really using
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: high school like high school and college day all the
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: corner kids though. I mean, you guys, rot who turned
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: out to join because let me tell you three he
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: did that? He did he ain't directed in his bag.
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: Let me ask you, Gail, where you a cool kid
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: in school? I mean that was popping what you're talking about?
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: That thought? Did you guys see Tommy versus Natalie None fight?
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: Did you see that that was funny because about Tommy
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: from Loving hip Hop? Yes? She the boxing fight? Wait
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: was this like intentional? Yes? It was what the Zeus
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: network was. It was fighting in London. Yeah. All I'm
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: saying is none of it makes sense that None Natalie
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: put the paws on her and then um, Tommy didn't
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: even come out for the next round. Tomady, she just
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: fell out like when you have your little break in
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: between round, but maybe she did a little side back
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: and better Again. I don't think she took a die. No,
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: I think she I think Tommy su pride for I
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: don't think she would want to lose on proud. People
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: don't realize how much boxing takes out of you. Yeah,
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: street fighting and boxing are two different things, and she
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: was losing. She should have just took the gloves off
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: and fought for real. Wait. Wait, now she would have
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: lost some money. Now she would never got paid. It
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: got paid. I feel like Tommy got so tired. You
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: saw her wind melling at a point she would just
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: like no, no. You see her as so point just
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: taking punches because she was so tired. Wait, think about this.
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: The average fight last thirty seconds. I don't know if
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: y'all know that last thirty seconds. But after the fight,
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: you have felt like you've been fighting for two hours.
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: I'm just confused. She had a party host highlight right, Yes,
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: she had that after the wind, Tommy, after the wind,
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: this is what we're got tonight. So she didn't go
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: to her party. I doubt it. But speaking of parties,
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: I got I gotta address something. I got addressed. The
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: elephant in the room. Oh uh. Since Atlanta seems like
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: the home of the hookah, Santana says men shouldn't smoke hooker.
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: If you was the man, you don't need to be
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: smoking a hookah, baby, go out. You need to be
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: all you up a wood. You need to be smoking
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: you something za Okay, you don't need to be suckered
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: down a hooka bad bitch, baddy. I'm sure has everyone
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: in here smoked hooka before smoke? I ain't gonna stop
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: smoking because Saucy Santana said, I tryout, It's not for me. Wait,
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: so what are he's trying to say is men shouldn't
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: have a hooka in they in their mouth? Yeah? Is
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: that just straight man? Yeah, he's talking about No, No,
• 13:14

• 13:18
  Speaker 1: of like, right homosexual. Yeah. I disagree, man, they've been
• 13:22
  Speaker 1: smoking hooka for four hundred years. I mean, I don't.
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: I don't agree with that because then you could get
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: into like you know how they call the crack pipe
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: a glass. Did you know what I'm saying? Then? I
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: didn't know that from sorry, or when you smoke with
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: other men and they'd be licking all on a background
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: and then you can't you can't puttick it in your mouth.
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: I've never understood people rolling weed and lick at it
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: and doing all that and then you passing it. Now,
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: that's why my smoking days, I just I think that's
• 13:54
  Speaker 1: why I want. They lick it. They lighted to kind
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: of burn disaffected. That's oh God, don't act like they
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: always had tips for hooker. Who since when they didn't
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: hut up? Since when? Man, listen, I'm gonna stop smoking

• 14:23
  Speaker 1: I haven't smoke hooker with him, but I smoke then

  Speaker 1: mind up to a whole world of life. Like oh,
• 16:16
  Speaker 1: I like this, like this is fun. I can get
• 16:18
  Speaker 1: paid to do this like that's it, like just this,
• 16:21
  Speaker 1: And I said, okay, this is what I want to do.
• 16:23
  Speaker 1: Because originally that I was gonna graduate from high school,
• 16:26
  Speaker 1: be a cheerleader, go to college for it, graduate from college,
• 16:30
  Speaker 1: be a Dallas Cowboys child. And then someone told me
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: that they only get packed fifty dollars a game. I
• 16:35
  Speaker 1: heard that that's still true. I don't know. I wasn't
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: trying to find out, just to find out. You know,
• 16:42
  Speaker 1: you hear certain things about certain stuff, and it's like,
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: I don't even want to go down that paty dollars
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: a game. That could have been a lie, but every
• 16:50
  Speaker 1: lie I have a little bit of truth too. Where
• 16:53
  Speaker 1: you are now, thank you. So I just chose to
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: pursue acting. I went to cup Well again. It was
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: my senior in high school. So I wasn't applying to
• 17:04
  Speaker 1: colleges because I thought, Okay, I'm just gonna move to
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: LA and pursue acting. But my mom, being a high
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: school teacher, she's not with that, deciding not to further
• 17:12
  Speaker 1: your education. So school, where where are your college letters?
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: They're not coming in. I said, oh, I'm not going
• 17:19
  Speaker 1: I'm moving to La to pursue acting, and she was like,
• 17:22
  Speaker 1: the hell you not the hell you are? You going
• 17:25
  Speaker 1: to college and you're getting a degree. It's something you
• 17:27
  Speaker 1: can get a job in. So went about Austin did
• 17:31
  Speaker 1: nothing related to acting or theater. While I was in college,
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: I was a real student, like student accounting in finance.
• 17:38
  Speaker 1: I was a double major. Oh, I had my bachelors
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: in accounty. Come on, man to good with the money.
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: I'm good with the money. You're good with the numbers,
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: good with the business. Cross Delta went to study abroad
• 17:52
  Speaker 1: in Germany. I went to cars Royal University. Oh. I
• 17:55
  Speaker 1: thoroughly enjoyed my college. I did co ed competition cheerly.
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: Then I lived my life. And then once I graduated,
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: I let her know like this was for you. Now
• 18:04
  Speaker 1: I'm going to do what I want, which is active.
• 18:07
  Speaker 1: And then eventually I went to AIU for media from production.
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: Then graduating okay, right there, gave my money, learned when
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: I need to learn. And then once I started being
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: productive in the business, I was like, well it cost
• 18:21
  Speaker 1: a lot, so to me, it just didn't make any
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: sense because I had hope. You know, in Georgia you
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: have hope. But my hope ran out from my first degree.
• 18:31
  Speaker 1: So now I'm paying out a pocket and taking out
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: student loans and I was just not for that. Started
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: getting active in my career here and I decided to
• 18:38
  Speaker 1: go to LA And it took me a while to
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: get there because I'm a sage. We just moved, you know,
• 18:44
  Speaker 1: we free do what we want to do. And my
• 18:47
  Speaker 1: mother kept saying no, like I couldn't go, and don't go.
• 18:50
  Speaker 1: You don't have a plan, You've never been. But I
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: knew I wanted to go there an act. I don't
• 18:54
  Speaker 1: know nobody in my in my family or personally that
• 18:58
  Speaker 1: is pursuing this that can help get me in. But
• 19:00
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna just go and take a leap of faith.
• 19:02
  Speaker 1: And I figured it all out. I kind of finessed
• 19:06
  Speaker 1: the plan. When was the first like big gig that
• 19:09
  Speaker 1: you said, huh, it's working, it's happening. Unexpected. Unexpected was
• 19:16
  Speaker 1: a feature film I did independent. We shot that in Chicago.
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: It was the first major thing I booked, and it
• 19:23
  Speaker 1: had Kobe Smallders from How I Met your Mother she
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: was the lady who played Robert Shovski and How I
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: Met Your Mother and then Honors Home and Elizabeth McGowan,
• 19:33
  Speaker 1: and I was the lead. Me and Kobe were the leads.
• 19:35
  Speaker 1: So I booked that and it wasn't paying much, but
• 19:38
  Speaker 1: I knew that it was going to do exactly what
• 19:40
  Speaker 1: it did. It went to Sundance Film Festival. It got
• 19:43
  Speaker 1: me my manager, it got me exposure, it got the
• 19:45
  Speaker 1: Hollywood reporter, it got me attention of people. And now
• 19:49
  Speaker 1: you got some alcolades at the Sundance. Yeah. Yeah, it
• 19:52
  Speaker 1: got me next generation breakout actors. Um it did what
• 19:56
  Speaker 1: it was supposed to do. Yea. This was living in LA.
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: You didn't have to get a job. No, I definitely
• 20:03
  Speaker 1: had a job. I got a job the first time
• 20:04
  Speaker 1: I went to Okay. I had a few jobs. That's
• 20:09
  Speaker 1: that's the story that people don't hear when people people
• 20:14
  Speaker 1: move to La. They don't they don't understand the actors grind.
• 20:17
  Speaker 1: So I went to go visit June fourteenth to July fourteen.
• 20:20
  Speaker 1: My first two days there, I got a job at
• 20:24
  Speaker 1: Windsor Windsor Fashion Story, it's like a little clothing store.
• 20:27
  Speaker 1: And then I was working at Francesca's Boutique. It's like
• 20:32
  Speaker 1: a little boutique clothing store. And I worked at Sheek
• 20:34
  Speaker 1: it's a sneaker store. And I was waitressing at like
• 20:38
  Speaker 1: a little sports bar. I didn't know anybody there. I
• 20:44
  Speaker 1: wasn't I was there for my acting. So until I
• 20:47
  Speaker 1: try to tell artists a lot because a lot of
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: times they just think, okay, grind, grind, grind, and not work.
• 20:53
  Speaker 1: But until it's a full time job, you need to
• 20:57
  Speaker 1: have income coming in the bills. Don't you got a
• 21:03
  Speaker 1: wardrobe makeup? I mean it is a gas yes, so
• 21:11
  Speaker 1: carry on. You can't be in LA and I have
• 21:13
  Speaker 1: a car. I don't see how people do it right? Um,
• 21:16
  Speaker 1: And I like to eat. I'm a food baby. Okay,
• 21:22
  Speaker 1: We've got some food dates. I got a whole list
• 21:24
  Speaker 1: of rest I don't think you met your match. They
• 21:28
  Speaker 1: know what's your favorite restaurant here? Oh care? I stay far?
• 21:31
  Speaker 1: Never been there and I just went to one flu
• 21:33
  Speaker 1: South recently. See you got a lot, you got a
• 21:37
  Speaker 1: lot of to be played. Lounge over in East Point,
• 21:40
  Speaker 1: I remember I've never been there. Did I just set

• 21:47
  Speaker 1: get to my favorite part? Dog? Can I ask? Can
• 21:49
  Speaker 1: I ask about snowfall? That's how I found you. I'm excited.
• 21:53
  Speaker 1: I'm excited. I'm excited they fired me, and I'm so
• 21:56
  Speaker 1: glad because after that, I got booked every month. So
• 22:00
  Speaker 1: I worked for the airline. So you so you got
• 22:02
  Speaker 1: fired from the jobs that you were actually working at.
• 22:05
  Speaker 1: I quit all the other jobs and I was working
• 22:06
  Speaker 1: just at Virgin America Airlines, which is now brought out
• 22:08
  Speaker 1: by Alaska. Loved that job. It was from Atlanta. So
• 22:12
  Speaker 1: I always look for a job. Every job. I had
• 22:20
  Speaker 1: always looked for a job, so I found I always
• 22:22
  Speaker 1: every single job, there's something where the pay is more
• 22:25
  Speaker 1: than just the money. So with like she story, yes,
• 22:30
  Speaker 1: with restaurants to eat. You know what I'm saying. You
• 22:35
  Speaker 1: preaching right now. So then I was working for the
• 22:37
  Speaker 1: airlines flight benefits, and then I also would sell like
• 22:41
  Speaker 1: my buddy passes and stuff. You know, did you have somebody?
• 22:47
  Speaker 1: Did you have an agent at this time when you
• 22:49
  Speaker 1: were doing all this grinding? I didn't. When I first
• 22:52
  Speaker 1: I had got my very first agent ever, right before
• 22:55
  Speaker 1: I moved to LA. When I moved, she dropped me,
• 22:57
  Speaker 1: she said, because I moved to LA. Now, my daddy worked,
• 23:02
  Speaker 1: he's a coach in the NFL. I'm his own girl.
• 23:04
  Speaker 1: I'm the baby. Yeah, I'm not spoiled, but I'm damn
• 23:08
  Speaker 1: sure deserving. So if I wanted, I do get it.
• 23:11
  Speaker 1: So he could fly me back and forth. But she
• 23:13
  Speaker 1: didn't care to ask me any questions or any of that.
• 23:16
  Speaker 1: It was just you moved and granted. She so she
• 23:20
  Speaker 1: was like, you moved, um, my daughter went out there
• 23:24
  Speaker 1: and she was back in two years and it's not
• 23:26
  Speaker 1: gonna work. And they always story and you also didn't ask.
• 23:34
  Speaker 1: I said, if you need me to be back for
• 23:35
  Speaker 1: something like one, I could put some auditions on tape,
• 23:38
  Speaker 1: and two, if you need me to come back for
• 23:40
  Speaker 1: a callback or anything, I could do that. No, I
• 23:44
  Speaker 1: can't represent you at the forty five days. Okay, thank
• 23:46
  Speaker 1: you so much for your time. Because it's the thing,
• 23:48
  Speaker 1: I already know that I'm blessed and highly favorite. So
• 23:51
  Speaker 1: when people try to start on me, I'm like, see
• 23:54
  Speaker 1: because eventually I'm gonna have to stunt on the people
• 23:56
  Speaker 1: that I should have been stunting with. And that's okay,
• 23:59
  Speaker 1: but I already know that. So she says she was
• 24:02
  Speaker 1: dropping me forty five more days okay. Cool. I was sad.
• 24:05
  Speaker 1: I'm talking to my friends like, oh my god, this
• 24:07
  Speaker 1: is my first agent. What am I gonna do? Like
• 24:09
  Speaker 1: it took so long to get this one. They were like,
• 24:13
  Speaker 1: submit to more so it was it was so something, yeah,
• 24:16
  Speaker 1: submit to more So I submitted and at the time
• 24:23
  Speaker 1: it was this agency. I'm not gonna say the name
• 24:25
  Speaker 1: because they have a bad reputation. Now I submitted to them.
• 24:30
  Speaker 1: My agent left there. She started her own. Her name
• 24:32
  Speaker 1: is Carla Huff. She has Bold Talent Agency. But at
• 24:35
  Speaker 1: the time I submitted to her online, she reached out.
• 24:39
  Speaker 1: We had a like hour long conversation and she picked
• 24:41
  Speaker 1: me up and it was great. So I didn't have
• 24:45
  Speaker 1: an agent. But then I got an agent again and
• 24:48
  Speaker 1: I was with her while I was working at Virgin America.
• 24:51
  Speaker 1: Loved that job. Worked all the time, but also still
• 24:55
  Speaker 1: had time for auditions and stuff. And it was another
• 24:59
  Speaker 1: actor that was working now that was just hating and
• 25:01
  Speaker 1: she got me fired. Crazy. It's okay, I know who
• 25:06
  Speaker 1: it is. I mean she's not she she wasn't. Uh
• 25:10
  Speaker 1: could we get to my partner man Let that settle.
• 25:14
  Speaker 1: I got an appointment, which helped me out because she
• 25:15
  Speaker 1: was I got fired unjustly. So I became a fan
• 25:18
  Speaker 1: of how great you did on Snowfall. I kept saying, Wow,
• 25:23
  Speaker 1: she's really doing a great job at going from you know,
• 25:27
  Speaker 1: the girlfriend to you're hooked on drugs really really bad
• 25:32
  Speaker 1: like and I was saying right before you came in,
• 25:34
  Speaker 1: I was like, how do you mentally go there to
• 25:37
  Speaker 1: act that well? To portray this person hooked on drugs?
• 25:42
  Speaker 1: And we of course we'll talk about snowfall, yes, um,
• 25:44
  Speaker 1: and could you talk about that? Of course, how you
• 25:46
  Speaker 1: got the snowfall and then your character. So let me
• 25:50
  Speaker 1: ask all of you a real question. Is anybody in
• 25:53
  Speaker 1: your family ever been on drugs? Yes? That you that
• 25:57
  Speaker 1: was a live while you were alive. Yes, oh yeah, yep.
• 26:02
  Speaker 1: I'm so sorry as anybody in your family been on drugs?
• 26:05
  Speaker 1: That was a lie while you were alive. Have you
• 26:07
  Speaker 1: ever seen witnessed anybody? And I think that is the
• 26:11
  Speaker 1: black story. I think that is there is no black
• 26:13
  Speaker 1: person in America who has not seen a family member
• 26:17
  Speaker 1: or someone close to them on drugs like that. They
• 26:19
  Speaker 1: no person um. One of my older sisters, she was
• 26:26
  Speaker 1: literally like a mother figure in our family. So we're
• 26:30
  Speaker 1: I'm first generation American by way of Takeday, which is
• 26:32
  Speaker 1: the northern region of Ethiopia, and we didn't have a father.
• 26:36
  Speaker 1: So my oldest brother was the man of the house
• 26:39
  Speaker 1: and she was the nurturer. She went to college, she worked,
• 26:43
  Speaker 1: she made sure that all of we all had our
• 26:44
  Speaker 1: homework done, she helped with projects. And I think at
• 26:47
  Speaker 1: some point in life, UM mentally, I just think that
• 26:50
  Speaker 1: it was heavy for her and she goes she moves
• 26:53
  Speaker 1: out to La gets into a relationship, and it goes south.
• 26:57
  Speaker 1: That's when she started using UM. She comes to Atlanta,
• 27:00
  Speaker 1: and that's when we really realized how bad it was. UM,
• 27:05
  Speaker 1: she's not doing well at all. We saw the ups
• 27:07
  Speaker 1: and downs, the different emotions that she could have in
• 27:11
  Speaker 1: a matter of seconds, like the highs, the lows, the aggression.
• 27:16
  Speaker 1: She's actually she's outside somewhere in Stale Mountain, you know.
• 27:20
  Speaker 1: So it's it's very relatable. But I think it's so
• 27:23
  Speaker 1: unfortunate how common it is in our community. So I
• 27:26
  Speaker 1: really appreciate you bringing that point up, you know, But
• 27:29
  Speaker 1: it is real. It's real. It's real that some people
• 27:32
  Speaker 1: in my family I've seen since I've been alive on drugs,
• 27:37
  Speaker 1: like addicted, Like when I was born, they were already
• 27:40
  Speaker 1: fully into the crack so or whatever drugs they were on.
• 27:44
  Speaker 1: So I used a lot of personal experiences, and then
• 27:47
  Speaker 1: when I used to live here years ago, I watched
• 27:50
  Speaker 1: a documentary called Jay Is for Junkie by Greedmont Park
• 27:53
  Speaker 1: and it was so good. It was so grounded. It
• 27:55
  Speaker 1: wasn't the clickbait clips we see of addicts, of them
• 27:58
  Speaker 1: just wilding out or people doing things to like disturb
• 28:03
  Speaker 1: them and disrupt their peace. It was actually seeing functioning
• 28:07
  Speaker 1: addicts talk about their story and their life. And I
• 28:11
  Speaker 1: mean not just addicts, but like crack at it. Are
• 28:13
  Speaker 1: they sharing the why, like how they got here, what
• 28:15
  Speaker 1: drove them to it? Some of them are. Some of
• 28:18
  Speaker 1: them share, you know, their thought process which leads them
• 28:22
  Speaker 1: to want to go do more drugs and things that
• 28:24
  Speaker 1: they've been through. Some of them, one of them was
• 28:26
  Speaker 1: an omega when I'm adulta so when I was a bro.
• 28:29
  Speaker 1: He showed his branding, like just showing that that wasn't
• 28:32
  Speaker 1: supposed to be their life and that wasn't the track
• 28:34
  Speaker 1: that they were on, and just how quickly a person
• 28:37
  Speaker 1: can slip. I watched those things. I volunteer your own
• 28:39
  Speaker 1: ski road. That's skied road is if y'all don't know,
• 28:44
  Speaker 1: it's like the worst part of LA the most homeless
• 28:47
  Speaker 1: is steam. I was saying, I wonder if I wonder
• 28:49
  Speaker 1: if you did that and you were around it to see,
• 28:52
  Speaker 1: Oh you did you did when you were talking about
• 28:54
  Speaker 1: that off cam talking before you came out, I was like,
• 28:56
  Speaker 1: I wonder did you do that? Because you did an
• 28:58
  Speaker 1: amazing job on that. Yeah, you're such a la. Twenty
• 29:01
  Speaker 1: thirteen and I started volunteering, I want to say, in
• 29:03
  Speaker 1: twenty thirteen or twenty fourteen, every Wednesday twenty It was
• 29:09
  Speaker 1: so much that, you know, I feel like in life
• 29:12
  Speaker 1: we get omens that show us things for the future
• 29:17
  Speaker 1: and God kind of prepares us for the bigger blessings
• 29:20
  Speaker 1: that are to come from. Yes, and it just gave
• 29:22
  Speaker 1: me an insight look to even see them more humanized,
• 29:27
  Speaker 1: you know, because before that, when it was just like
• 29:30
  Speaker 1: members in my family, to me, it was like, Okay,
• 29:33
  Speaker 1: that's a jay, that's a junk. I'm not gonna pretend
• 29:36
  Speaker 1: that I would like, I know, cancel culture is a thing,
• 29:38
  Speaker 1: but I fully take responsibility who I am and who
• 29:41
  Speaker 1: I've grown to become. At first, I used to look
• 29:44
  Speaker 1: at the Jay's and my family like I would play
• 29:46
  Speaker 1: tricks on them as kids, like yeah, I was that person.
• 29:51
  Speaker 1: So I'm I'm happy that it taught me something and
• 29:53
  Speaker 1: humanized me and allow me to have empathy for people
• 29:57
  Speaker 1: and truly understand addiction as as a disease and how
• 30:01
  Speaker 1: it can be any one of us at any time.
• 30:04
  Speaker 1: At any time. There's many different addictions. So what's next,
• 30:08
  Speaker 1: What's next? Value is happen? Valley was a straight offer. Okay,
• 30:20
  Speaker 1: they came to you. They're like, hey, so, okay, Valley
• 30:26
  Speaker 1: is like a trial of years. So I originally auditioned
• 30:29
  Speaker 1: for the pilot for this one role like five times.
• 30:32
  Speaker 1: They kept I had an audition and then a callback,
• 30:34
  Speaker 1: and then the producers in a director session and network
• 30:37
  Speaker 1: and this, and it was that they were pushing me
• 30:40
  Speaker 1: to the network, but the network said no. I was
• 30:43
  Speaker 1: the girl that they wanted for the role. And then
• 30:46
  Speaker 1: it was no from the network. I said, okay, I
• 30:50
  Speaker 1: to me, I can act, but it didn't make sense
• 30:53
  Speaker 1: for me to play that character. So because I just
• 30:56
  Speaker 1: I didn't look like that character, I couldn't. No matter what,
• 30:59
  Speaker 1: I wasn't gonna be the character. And I'm glad that
• 31:02
  Speaker 1: they pushed back. I'm glad that they said no, because
• 31:04
  Speaker 1: when it came back around now, I would say that
• 31:07
  Speaker 1: was probably twenty eighteen. So now I've I'm not who
• 31:12
  Speaker 1: Gail being in twenty eighteen is not gayl being in
• 31:14
  Speaker 1: twenty twenty one. So now when it came back around
• 31:18
  Speaker 1: and they said this is who we want for the role,
• 31:20
  Speaker 1: there was no pushback for the network. It was like, okay, cool,
• 31:24
  Speaker 1: we agree. I had allowed my star to rise. I
• 31:28
  Speaker 1: had allowed some of my my work to show. Okay,
• 31:30
  Speaker 1: she can carry the weight of this. And Katori called me.
• 31:35
  Speaker 1: We did a zoom. She said, would you would you
• 31:37
  Speaker 1: you want to be one Valley? I said, hell, yeah,
• 31:41
  Speaker 1: what you mean? You got all the classes girls, Snowfall,
• 31:44
  Speaker 1: pe Valley. I think I'm just so honored and blessed

• 32:41
  Speaker 1: So twenty twenty three, what else do we have, like
• 32:47
  Speaker 1: before we get off pe Valley? What has taken so
• 32:49
  Speaker 1: long for the new season? Had a baby? Okay okay, mama, okay,
• 32:56
  Speaker 1: okay know in real life? Yeah, that's she burnt our
• 33:00
  Speaker 1: first order. On top of that, they got it. Well,
• 33:05
  Speaker 1: it's a lot going on in the industry right now.
• 33:07
  Speaker 1: It might possibly be a writer strike. It might possibly
• 33:11
  Speaker 1: be a director's strike. After the writers strike, I don't
• 33:16
  Speaker 1: know when y'all gonna get a new content. What is
• 33:17
  Speaker 1: it about a lack of money? Respecting Uncle Clifford rules? Now,
• 33:22
  Speaker 1: what's up with the strikes? What's the reason? Networks? Then
• 33:25
  Speaker 1: they just kind of gotta money. Things are evolving. Networks
• 33:29
  Speaker 1: and studios are making more money. They're being more profitable.
• 33:32
  Speaker 1: But now you have more platforms like streaming, So if
• 33:35
  Speaker 1: you write a show, and you get paid off of
• 33:38
  Speaker 1: that show, but then it goes to a streaming platform
• 33:40
  Speaker 1: and you don't get paid anymore but stream And then
• 33:44
  Speaker 1: writers You gotta think writers come from the year of
• 33:47
  Speaker 1: the era of like Martin when they're doing twenty plus episodes.
• 33:50
  Speaker 1: Now shows have like ten episodes, maybe go three four seasons. Yeah,
• 33:57
  Speaker 1: I mean, pay them and then it's it's it's a bunch,
• 34:01
  Speaker 1: it's a lot that goes into it where it's just
• 34:03
  Speaker 1: it's not listening. I need p Valley to come back
