- 7:10Speaker 1: Maybe you look good. You know. Listen, we go way,
- 7:14Speaker 1: way way back, but before we get to how we
- 7:17Speaker 1: first met, I do want to go back a little
- 7:18Speaker 1: bit further in terms of your childhood, because I mean,
- 7:22Speaker 1: I know all about your childhood, but you had a
- 7:28Speaker 1: very interesting life growing up. Can you explain to the
- 7:34Speaker 1: audience exactly what that was about for you?
- 7:37Speaker 2: Yes, So I went from normal upbringing, or what I
- 7:41Speaker 2: thought was very normal. My mother was introduced to scientology
- 7:47Speaker 2: and just went balls to the wall. Sold everything our house, furniture,
- 7:54Speaker 2: everything we had took me because I was the youngest child,
- 7:58Speaker 2: and we moved to LA to the Scientology headquarters, the
- 8:02Speaker 2: big blue building, and my life has never been the same.
- 8:07Speaker 2: Like literally, I was there until I was thirteen when
- 8:11Speaker 2: they kicked me out, Well they kicked you out. They
- 8:13Speaker 2: said I was a free loader because I would not
- 8:15Speaker 2: sign the billion year contract to work for them in
- 8:19Speaker 2: their organization.
- 8:20Speaker 1: The billionaire contract, billion year contract, billion years, a billion years.
- 8:27Speaker 2: That was their contract that they presented to the members
- 8:32Speaker 2: that are in their organization, and they wanted me to
- 8:34Speaker 2: sign it, and I was like, absolutely not.
- 8:37Speaker 1: Well what does that entail?
- 8:40Speaker 2: You're there for life, so what intails you don't leave.
- 8:43Speaker 2: They believe in reincarnation. So when you die, or what
- 8:46Speaker 2: they call it, drop in your body. When you drop
- 8:48Speaker 2: this body, you come back in your You keep fulfilling
- 8:52Speaker 2: your obligation to them for a billion years, which is absurd.
- 8:57Speaker 2: And I understood that at thirteen, and I was like, yeah, no,
- 9:01Speaker 2: I don't think I want to do it. So they said,
- 9:03Speaker 2: either you sign this or you get out. And so
- 9:06Speaker 2: I've been on my own since I was thirteen.
- 9:08Speaker 1: Your mother let you leave, Walk right out.
- 9:11Speaker 2: The door, down the steps, down the sidewalk, didn't say
- 9:15Speaker 2: a word.
- 9:16Speaker 1: Wait, I'm I'm getting most of it right now. Yeah,
- 9:20Speaker 1: you are a thirteen year old girl, not even a woman.
- 9:22Speaker 1: You're a thirteen year old girl and you leave the
- 9:25Speaker 1: Scientology building.
- 9:27Speaker 2: Yeah, but I had a little backpack that had my
- 9:30Speaker 2: clothes in it, so all I had.
- 9:32Speaker 1: Now, before we get into what you did after that,
- 9:35Speaker 1: do you remember some of the practices that they had
- 9:38Speaker 1: you do doing your time.
- 9:40Speaker 2: There, Yes, I do. The crazy thing is the overall
- 9:47Speaker 2: goal of their organization is pretty positive. They want to
- 9:52Speaker 2: clear the world of negativity. That's the overall goal. To
- 9:56Speaker 2: clear the planet, not the world, the planet. In order
- 10:00Speaker 2: to clear the planet, that means every individual on planet
- 10:04Speaker 2: Earth would have to be a scientologist or a Sea
- 10:07Speaker 2: Org member, two different things. Scientologists is when you just
- 10:12Speaker 2: go and take the courses. There are a lot of
- 10:14Speaker 2: celebrities that are scientologists. Tom Cruise is a scientologist. Dougie
- 10:19Speaker 2: Fresh scientologists. Didn't know that day, I didn't know that,
- 10:23Speaker 2: So a lot of celebrities that are scientologists. However, when
- 10:25Speaker 2: you join the Sea Org is when you sign the
- 10:28Speaker 2: billion year contract to work for them, work for them forever,
- 10:32Speaker 2: and that's a whole different ballgame.
- 10:34Speaker 1: So, yeah, did any mishaps happen to you, because you know,
- 10:42Speaker 1: people do consider it to be a cult, and sometimes
- 10:46Speaker 1: on a cult, a lot of unfortunate defenses happens to you,
- 10:51Speaker 1: especially young girls. Did you experience any of those industrial.
- 10:56Speaker 2: Jesus, I did not experience any thing like that. It
- 11:00Speaker 2: was more so I have a story one time I
- 11:05Speaker 2: was late for school because we went to Scientology school
- 11:08Speaker 2: as well. Like you were there, you didn't you didn't
- 11:11Speaker 2: go out of the compound. You know, you can go
- 11:14Speaker 2: from building to building, but you weren't allowed to just
- 11:16Speaker 2: go to regular school and go to whatever whatever. Right.
- 11:21Speaker 2: I was late for school one day and because I
- 11:23Speaker 2: was late, they had me white glove a dumpster. Literally
- 11:28Speaker 2: I think I was nine, and I had to white
- 11:32Speaker 2: glove a dumpster, meaning clean the entire dumpster. And when
- 11:36Speaker 2: I was done, they literally put white gloves on and
- 11:39Speaker 2: like scraped the crevices of the dumpster. It was things
- 11:43Speaker 2: like that. Remember I had a cleaning service. Oh I
- 11:46Speaker 2: know how to clean, thank you Scientology.
- 11:52Speaker 1: So that just to check to make sure that shit
- 11:54Speaker 1: was spotless.
- 11:55Speaker 2: Yeah, that was my punishment for being late for school.
- 11:58Speaker 2: It was extreme things like that that I experienced, but
- 12:01Speaker 2: never anything you know, you know, sexual or anything like that.
- 12:06Speaker 2: I never went through that.
- 12:08Speaker 1: When you left at thirteen, where did you go?
- 12:11Speaker 2: I had a family friend that lived in south central
- 12:14Speaker 2: at La, and I had I took the bus. I
- 12:19Speaker 2: took the bus, two buses, all the way across town.
- 12:22Speaker 1: You know, where to go. I got.
- 12:24Speaker 2: I went to the payphone, because you know his payphone. Yeah,
- 12:27Speaker 2: I went to the payphone, and I had her number
- 12:29Speaker 2: written down in a piece of paper, and I called her.
- 12:32Speaker 2: She's like my cousin, shout out to two love you,
- 12:35Speaker 2: and she was like, yeah, you know, come over. She
- 12:37Speaker 2: didn't know what was going on. Her family didn't know
- 12:40Speaker 2: what was going on. I didn't tell him, you know,
- 12:42Speaker 2: because I didn't understand the severity of you don't have
- 12:47Speaker 2: anywhere to live. I didn't get it. I just was like,
- 12:50Speaker 2: let me figure out right now. I was just in
- 12:52Speaker 2: the moment, trying to live in that moment. So in
- 12:57Speaker 2: this moment, I need somewhere to stay tonight. And so
- 12:59Speaker 2: that's where my mind went, Where can I stay tonight?
- 13:02Speaker 2: So I called a friend and I went to her house. So, yeah,
- 13:05Speaker 2: it's it's been an interesting journey. Yeah, shall I say, how.
- 13:12Speaker 1: Long did you stay with the family friends slash her cousin.
- 13:15Speaker 2: I stayed with them for that weekend, right, uh huh
- 13:19Speaker 2: uh Friday, I went over there. I stayed with them
- 13:21Speaker 2: for the weekend. So Monday, everybody's back to business. Her
- 13:24Speaker 2: dad it was going to work, She's going to school,
- 13:26Speaker 2: and I'm like, Okay, what am I going to do?
- 13:28Speaker 2: I can't just sit in their house twenty four to seven,
- 13:32Speaker 2: So I'm like, huh. Took the bus back to the building, right,
- 13:38Speaker 2: and I went to school. I didn't know what else
- 13:40Speaker 2: to do.
- 13:41Speaker 1: You went back to Scientology school.
- 13:43Speaker 2: I went back to Scientology school. Like I got kicked
- 13:46Speaker 2: out of the living quarters. But I'm like, they didn't
- 13:48Speaker 2: say nothing about the school. I didn't know. I don't
- 13:50Speaker 2: even know if the school knew. So I went back
- 13:52Speaker 2: to the school. Mind you, there were a lot of
- 13:55Speaker 2: celebrity kids that were going to this school, like, ooh,
- 13:58Speaker 2: a lot of celebrity kids. Juliette Lewis was there, Gi
- 14:08Speaker 2: Giovanni Ribisi, he's a big time actor right now. There
- 14:12Speaker 2: are a lot of kids that we're in the Scientology school.
- 14:15Speaker 2: So I would watch the kids that were going home
- 14:19Speaker 2: in the nicest whips, and I'm like, Okay, I'm gonna
- 14:24Speaker 2: go spend the night with them tonight because I know
- 14:26Speaker 2: if I go to their house, then I'm going to
- 14:28Speaker 2: get a good meal, I'm going to be able to
- 14:30Speaker 2: take a.
- 14:30Speaker 1: Bath, you know what I mean.
- 14:31Speaker 2: And so that that was my thought process. Let me
- 14:36Speaker 2: make this uncomfortable situation comfortable. And I did that for
- 14:40Speaker 2: the rest of the school year. I spent the night
- 14:42Speaker 2: with a different kid every night for the rest of
- 14:46Speaker 2: the school year. I figured it out. I never slept
- 14:50Speaker 2: on a park bench, I never had to do nothing
- 14:53Speaker 2: strange for change. I figured it out, and I made
- 14:57Speaker 2: it work for me, you know, the best way I could.
- 14:59Speaker 1: So, And where was her father at around this time?
- 15:02Speaker 2: My dad was an upstate New York. I had not
- 15:04Speaker 2: met my dad yet. I had met him till I
- 15:07Speaker 2: was sixteen.
- 15:09Speaker 1: That was the first time sixteen.
- 15:11Speaker 2: So I grew up believing my brother and sister's father
- 15:15Speaker 2: was my father my whole life.
- 15:17Speaker 1: Did your mother let you believe that?
- 15:19Speaker 2: Yes? Yes, she even gave me his last name. My
- 15:22Speaker 2: last name was James at the time. Right, So, my
- 15:26Speaker 2: sister graduated from Florida State and my sister I hadn't
- 15:31Speaker 2: seen my sister in years since when my mother took
- 15:33Speaker 2: me to La that I didn't I lost contact with
- 15:36Speaker 2: my siblings because they were in college in high school.
- 15:39Speaker 2: I was there, I didn't have a phone and we
- 15:41Speaker 2: didn't have a phone in the building like it was.
- 15:44Speaker 2: I lost contact with him. So my sister contacted my
- 15:47Speaker 2: mother and was like, I want me and me to
- 15:49Speaker 2: come to my graduation. I'm graduating from college. So my
- 15:53Speaker 2: mother was like, well, you know, how's she going to
- 15:55Speaker 2: get there. My sister was like, I have a friend
- 15:58Speaker 2: ironically that's coming from gonna drive down from La to Florida.
- 16:04Speaker 2: She got hop in a car with them. I was like, okay,
- 16:07Speaker 2: So hopped in the car, went to the graduation. Who
- 16:11Speaker 2: do I see my dad? I haven't seen this man
- 16:15Speaker 2: in years? Right, I'm like, oh, my god, Daddy, I
- 16:22Speaker 2: see him from all the way down the football field.
- 16:24Speaker 2: I'm running to him. I should have known he was
- 16:27Speaker 2: my dad. He's black man, chocolate from the Islands. Look
- 16:32Speaker 2: at me. We did it one of him. I gravel
- 16:40Speaker 2: Mama hugging him and he didn't embrace me. He patted
- 16:45Speaker 2: me on my head like a dog. He said, my
- 16:48Speaker 2: you got taller. This was the only things. I haven't
- 16:52Speaker 2: seen you in years. I hope I got taller, but
- 16:55Speaker 2: in that instant I knew he wasn't my dad. I'm like,
- 16:58Speaker 2: there's no way that my father that hasn't seen me
- 17:01Speaker 2: in years is gonna pat me and say, my you
- 17:04Speaker 2: got taller. So I literally had to sit with that
- 17:07Speaker 2: the entire weekend that I was there for the graduation.
- 17:11Speaker 2: I'm sitting with this. It felt like somebody stabbed me
- 17:14Speaker 2: in the chest with a machete. That's what it felt like,
- 17:17Speaker 2: like the pain that I felt. And I didn't know
- 17:22Speaker 2: who to talk to. I didn't know, like I didn't
- 17:24Speaker 2: want to ruin my sister's graduation and bring up all
- 17:28Speaker 2: this my bs, you know, So I just sat with it.
- 17:31Speaker 2: I sat with it, And when I got back to California,
- 17:35Speaker 2: I went to that building and I went to my
- 17:38Speaker 2: mom and I said, Hey, who's my dad? Because that
- 17:42Speaker 2: dude that's not my dad.
- 17:44Speaker 1: Who's my dad?
- 17:46Speaker 2: My mother wrote down a name, it number, slid me
- 17:50Speaker 2: over the piece of paper and said, here's his name
- 17:53Speaker 2: and number. You can call him if you like. At sixteen,
- 17:58Speaker 2: and that's how I found out out he wasn't my dad.
- 18:01Speaker 2: And this other guy was Oh, my.
- 18:03Speaker 1: Lord, yeah, and what was it like meeting him for
- 18:05Speaker 1: the first time.
- 18:07Speaker 2: It was kind of cool because I saw me in him.
- 18:10Speaker 2: We looked alike. You know what I'm saying. I'm like, oh, okay,
- 18:13Speaker 2: this makes more sense.
- 18:15Speaker 1: You know. Did he know about you?
- 18:17Speaker 2: Yeah, you knew about me. It was writing my mom
- 18:19Speaker 2: letters for years, and my mom she was you know,
- 18:23Speaker 2: she wasn't clearly ready to deal with it, so she
- 18:25Speaker 2: didn't want to have the conversation with me, so she
- 18:27Speaker 2: never you know, he was mad at me. I've been

- 31:42Speaker 1: You know what it's so interesting about that entire story
- 31:44Speaker 1: to me is the fact that he has never changed,
- 31:47Speaker 1: like that's that's who he is. And admittedly, admittedly you're
- 31:52Speaker 1: in your twenties, there's some sort of thrill about that

- 32:30Speaker 2: did you leave? He made me look bad? What that
- 32:35Speaker 2: made you look bad? Why did I leave? Yeah? He's macaron.

- 36:09Speaker 2: He beat me there.
- 36:12Speaker 1: Why do you think he did that?
- 36:16Speaker 2: Steve? He beat me there, Carlos. So I sat sitting down.
- 36:23Speaker 2: I remember what he had on. He had on a
- 36:27Speaker 2: red Adidas track suit with some gazelle glasses. And I
- 36:30Speaker 2: was kind of bucking, like where do you get this from?
- 36:32Speaker 2: Like it was all like new clothes, Like where do
- 36:36Speaker 2: you get this from? So I'm a little like what
- 36:38Speaker 2: the like? I walk up on him. We had a
- 36:41Speaker 2: whole argument right there in the lobby. Sure did not loud,
- 36:45Speaker 2: but you could tell it. It was a problem because
- 36:47Speaker 2: it was a whole lot of this and finger pointing
- 36:49Speaker 2: and you know. And we got a tap said, hey,
- 36:52Speaker 2: you two, come with me. Follow her. It was Tiffany.
- 37:00Speaker 2: Tiffany says, come with me. We follow her. We go
- 37:03Speaker 2: to this big conference room. There's all these executives sitting
- 37:07Speaker 2: in front of the table and they had two chairs
- 37:10Speaker 2: in the middle floor and they sat us there and
- 37:12Speaker 2: they said, so tell us about yourselves. First of all,
- 37:17Speaker 2: we just got finished calling each other everything but a
- 37:19Speaker 2: child to God.
- 37:21Speaker 1: Like bad.
- 37:22Speaker 2: It was bad in that lobby. And he turns into
- 37:26Speaker 2: a saint. The sun, the moon and the stars and
- 37:29Speaker 2: when the planets aligned, the fuck what? And I'm looking
- 37:39Speaker 2: at him like, you can't be serious, right, now he's
- 37:42Speaker 2: talking about planets aligning and the moon and the stars,
- 37:46Speaker 2: and all of the executives everybody was looking really perplexed,
- 37:50Speaker 2: like what is he talking about. I don't even think
- 37:52Speaker 2: he knew he was talking about. He was just trying
- 37:55Speaker 2: to fluff them. He's a music dude. He didn't know
- 37:58Speaker 2: what they wanted. He needs a TV. I don't think
- 38:00Speaker 2: he even knew what they wanted. So he was just
- 38:02Speaker 2: trying to give him something and he he turned into
- 38:07Speaker 2: a Saint Gandhi. I was when I tell you, I
- 38:13Speaker 2: was fuming, Carlos. I said, you are not going to
- 38:19Speaker 2: get in front of these people and act like this
- 38:22Speaker 2: after what you just said to me in that lobby.
- 38:27Speaker 2: I'm greeting my teeth, my leg is shaking, all the stuff.
- 38:31Speaker 2: When I say Jesus took the wheel, because I just
- 38:34Speaker 2: blurted it out, I said, you want to know the problem,
- 38:37Speaker 2: I says, he doesn't come home or not and when
- 38:38Speaker 2: he does, he smells like pussy. And there you have it.
- 38:48Speaker 1: So what's funny is okay? So I get a call
- 38:51Speaker 1: about their doing love and Hip Hop Atlanta and I'm
- 38:53Speaker 1: a fan of New York. I'm a huge fan of Chrissy.
- 38:57Speaker 1: I think she's an icon in her own right. And
- 39:00Speaker 1: I'm doing I'm doing Housewives, and I'm like, I want
- 39:03Speaker 1: to go over here because I love loving hip hop.
- 39:07Speaker 1: So long story short, Mona scot Young she showed me,
- 39:10Speaker 1: like everybody who's a part of the show whatever, and
- 39:13Speaker 1: that same hotel. It was a cast meeting, and I
- 39:16Speaker 1: remember meeting you and Stevie and I remember instantly being like,
- 39:20Speaker 1: those are stars and you know this, I'm sure. So
- 39:24Speaker 1: at the time, the network wanted DJ Drama and his
- 39:31Speaker 1: girl to be the face of the franchise. Did you
- 39:35Speaker 1: know this?
- 39:35Speaker 2: I did not.
- 39:36Speaker 1: Okay, so DJ Drama, the network, everybody was like, they're
- 39:42Speaker 1: the premier couple because DJ Drama obviously is relevant and
- 39:45Speaker 1: at that time, obviously in Atlanta he still is, but
- 39:49Speaker 1: at that time too a big name.
- 39:51Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 39:51Speaker 1: So I was like, oh, that's fine, I said, but
- 39:57Speaker 1: there's something about this bb in Stevie. I'm just telling
- 40:00Speaker 1: you about I see this is maybe a Stevie thing,
- 40:02Speaker 1: is lit. Long story short. DJ Dramas girl at the
- 40:07Speaker 1: time was fifty to fifty and Drama was like twenty
- 40:12Speaker 1: five twenty five percent that he wanted to do or
- 40:15Speaker 1: seventy five. He wasn't doing it. Long story short, they
- 40:17Speaker 1: backed out and we had one week to start filming.
- 40:21Speaker 1: They never agree with the show. It's funny you don't
- 40:24Speaker 1: know this, And Mona goes, what are we going to do?
- 40:28Speaker 1: And I said, I think we should focus on media
- 40:31Speaker 1: and TV and she said, I think you're right. She
- 40:35Speaker 1: and I, along with Stephanie Gale and the rest of
- 40:38Speaker 1: the producers, all of us collectively, we had to rearrange
- 40:42Speaker 1: the episode, and our first theme that we shot was
- 40:46Speaker 1: you and Stevie in this house. And y'all got to
- 40:53Speaker 1: this argument and me and Mona and Stephanie looked at
- 40:56Speaker 1: each other and said, oh, bitch, we got a show.
- 41:00Speaker 1: We got a show. We got a show. Remember that,
- 41:04Speaker 1: and look it was Look the rest is history. But
- 41:08Speaker 1: I do want to ask you.
- 41:09Speaker 3: This obviously, So again, there was no Joscelyne at this time. Yes,
- 41:13Speaker 3: there was in terms of us knowing about it. Okay,
- 41:20Speaker 3: So how did.
- 41:21Speaker 1: You find out that Stevie j wanted Joscelyn to be
- 41:25Speaker 1: on the show.
- 41:27Speaker 2: He told me initially because he needed an artist, because
- 41:30Speaker 2: he is a pre producer, so he needed an artist
- 41:33Speaker 2: to film with. So that's why I thought Joscelyn was
- 41:36Speaker 2: initially was his artist. I'm going to be doing studio scenes,
- 41:41Speaker 2: blah blah blah. I didn't really know what the truth
- 41:44Speaker 2: was till it aired.
- 41:47Speaker 1: And I saw types of goings on going on because
- 41:51Speaker 1: at that time, you really thought we were working on
- 41:53Speaker 1: our relationship.
- 41:54Speaker 2: Yeah, yes I did. I found out what the rest
- 41:58Speaker 2: of the world on Monday night.
- 42:00Speaker 1: It appears to me that the same thing Stevie told
- 42:03Speaker 1: you about him and Eve not being together is the
- 42:06Speaker 1: same thing he told her, Yes, and that's why in
- 42:09Speaker 1: her eyes she thought this was my man, and you're
- 42:11Speaker 1: just the baby mama, got it. Yeah, so you're the problem, Steven.
- 42:17Speaker 1: I love you. The problem is two women were forced
- 42:21Speaker 1: to dislike each other based on the lies of the man.
- 42:26Speaker 2: He loved every second of it. He likes that drama
- 42:36Speaker 2: around him.
- 42:37Speaker 1: He loves it.
- 42:39Speaker 2: He's always done it. He did it back when he's
- 42:43Speaker 2: I don't know what he's doing now, but I'm sure
- 42:45Speaker 2: he's doing it right now today.
- 42:47Speaker 1: What is your relationship like now with Stevie.
- 42:50Speaker 2: Jay, I don't have a relationship with him.
- 42:53Speaker 1: No, Nope, you guys don't talk.
- 42:55Speaker 2: Nope.
- 42:56Speaker 1: Why for what? Up? You have the daughter together.
- 43:01Speaker 2: She has a cell phone.
- 43:05Speaker 1: Is there something happened?
- 43:07Speaker 2: He I don't know where his deal is. But to
- 43:10Speaker 2: keep my peace. You see how peaceful I am. I
- 43:13Speaker 2: keep I stay the funk away from me. Yeah, he
- 43:17Speaker 2: can call Eva, they can communicate, But yeah, as far
- 43:22Speaker 2: as I'm concerned, I don't have anything to talk to
- 43:24Speaker 2: him about. There's there's no contributing factor to our household
- 43:28Speaker 2: from him. What the fuck do we have to talk about?
- 43:34Speaker 2: We don't talk to your daughter. Whatever you gotta do
- 43:38Speaker 2: with her, but yeah, we don't. I just I keep
- 43:42Speaker 2: my peace, and that's the only way I know how
- 43:44Speaker 2: because he he Yeah, I'd got to keep my peace.
- 43:50Speaker 2: So you stay wherever you're gonna be, and you gonna
- 43:56Speaker 2: draw a line. Lie.
- 44:02Speaker 1: You mentioned earlier that obviously you and Jocelyn. You know
- 44:07Speaker 1: you guys share children who are considered half siblings. Do
- 44:13Speaker 1: you and Joscelene talk tough the kids to each other?
- 44:16Speaker 2: Eva calls her sister. They talk on the phone all
- 44:18Speaker 2: the time. Okay, so her and Bonnie. I hear them
- 44:21Speaker 2: all the time on FaceTime and chopping it up, and
- 44:25Speaker 2: you know, so they definitely have a relationship, and I
- 44:28Speaker 2: encourage it. Call your sister. Have you talked to your sister.
- 44:31Speaker 2: I encourage her to have a relationship as her sister,
- 44:34Speaker 2: but me and her mom know she sent even some
- 44:36Speaker 2: money for her birthday. Thank you. Yeah. But as far
- 44:40Speaker 2: as us communicating, no, we don't communicate.
- 44:44Speaker 1: When you look at who Joscelyn is now, are you
- 44:48Speaker 1: proud of what she's been able to accomplish.
- 44:50Speaker 2: From where she came from? Absolutely? Absolutely. I mean it's
- 44:55Speaker 2: still on the same level, but she's very successful at
- 44:58Speaker 2: what she does, what she has, the brand that she's
- 45:02Speaker 2: made for herself and very successful. So absolutely, any woman
- 45:06Speaker 2: who can bring themselves from where they were to a
- 45:10Speaker 2: successful level, were able to take care of her family
- 45:14Speaker 2: and do what she does, kudos to her. Absolutely.
- 45:18Speaker 1: I want to talk to you about your experience doing
- 45:22Speaker 1: reality television because I remember working with you guys season
- 45:27Speaker 1: one and me me after the first episode aired, youll
- 45:36Speaker 1: lives were never the same. No, and I'm not exasperating
- 45:40Speaker 1: when I say this, and you stop me because you
- 45:42Speaker 1: know they love to say call us type shit up.
- 45:44Speaker 1: We had a lot of housewives. There was a different
- 45:49Speaker 1: energy in the city of Atlanta alone. When it came
- 45:53Speaker 1: you guys were the biggest celebrities in the city.
- 45:59Speaker 2: It was crazy.
- 46:00Speaker 1: We're not even gonna touch going out, you know, worldwide
- 46:04Speaker 1: and all that ship. But I'll just say with Atlanta, yeah,
- 46:07Speaker 1: it was a It was a meteoric rise. You went
- 46:11Speaker 1: from making a couple of thousand two I will never
- 46:15Speaker 1: get them through your business you want to. You were
- 46:17Speaker 1: making double digits your second season.
- 46:19Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah.
- 46:24Speaker 1: People today believe that there will be no love and
- 46:30Speaker 1: hip hop. Yes, Christie Jimmy started it, and we will
- 46:34Speaker 1: always give them props for like Vicki Gobason with OC.
- 46:37Speaker 1: But everyone said Niani Leaks, put Nini Leaks, Shara Kim,
- 46:41Speaker 1: Deshaun Lisa will put the spots on the map. Everyone
- 46:46Speaker 1: has said that. And this is no shade to anybody.
- 46:49Speaker 1: People say this that me and me, Stevie, James, jos
- 46:51Speaker 1: Leen carried that franchise on their back. Do you at
- 47:00Speaker 1: that time did you understand the power? You had?
- 47:03Speaker 2: Absolutely not, no clue, no clue. I was literally living
- 47:10Speaker 2: it in the moment, and I couldn't even see outside
- 47:13Speaker 2: of the situations that were going on in my every day,
- 47:16Speaker 2: So I had no clue. It was like I was
- 47:19Speaker 2: in a bubble, how big it was, how I had
- 47:23Speaker 2: no clue. Carlos. Had I had a clue, i'd be
- 47:27Speaker 2: somewhere completely different. Right now, I'll tell you that I
- 47:31Speaker 2: really would have.
- 47:32Speaker 1: Did you save any money?
- 47:34Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I saved. I'm great at saving. I'm a capcorn. Okay,
- 47:38Speaker 2: I'm saying grated saving.
- 47:40Speaker 1: Do you feel like you got compensated for what you
- 47:44Speaker 1: brought to that show?
- 47:47Speaker 2: That's questionable. It's relative. Here's the thing with the compensation,
- 47:56Speaker 2: because reality TV only pays you one time and one
- 48:01Speaker 2: time only, and it keeps running and keeps running, and
- 48:05Speaker 2: you never get compensated again. I'm gonna say no, Okay,
- 48:09Speaker 2: I do not feel like for it to still be running.
- 48:13Speaker 2: There's people that young people that come up to me
- 48:16Speaker 2: now that say, oh my god, you know that feel
- 48:19Speaker 2: like they're just they're just seeing this for the first
- 48:21Speaker 2: time and they're getting this experience and I don't get
- 48:24Speaker 2: another dime from that, but somebody else's so No, I
- 48:30Speaker 2: don't to answer your questions. No.
- 48:33Speaker 1: Jocelyne said that she believed she became the highest paid
- 48:38Speaker 1: talent on Love and Hip Hop. She says she was
- 48:41Speaker 1: making around fifty thousand per episode. Were you getting the
- 48:46Speaker 1: same Nope, you weren't no, were you getting half of that? Yes?
- 48:51Speaker 2: I was getting more than half when I wasn't getting that.
- 48:54Speaker 1: Do you feel like you deserve to get paid as
- 48:56Speaker 1: much as Jocelyne fucking Louie?
- 48:59Speaker 2: Absolutely absolutely, because if it wasn't for me and him,
- 49:08Speaker 2: there would have been on her. So yeah, absolutely, don't
- 49:16Speaker 2: get me wrong. Jocelyne was the fire, She was the flare.
- 49:25Speaker 2: She brought all the antagonistic everything to the table, but
- 49:33Speaker 2: it all tied together. If I wasn't a part of that,
- 49:36Speaker 2: then you see what I'm saying. Yeah, we should have
- 49:41Speaker 2: been making the same amount of money all three of us.
- 49:46Speaker 1: Do you feel like you were ever appreciated for what
- 49:50Speaker 1: you contributed to the show?
- 49:53Speaker 2: Not really? Nah, not really. I feel like I felt
- 49:59Speaker 2: like I was a pawn in the To be honest,
- 50:02Speaker 2: I really did. I felt as though I was the
- 50:07Speaker 2: person who they could get that reaction from, and I
- 50:15Speaker 2: gave it to him every time they could they you know,
- 50:22Speaker 2: and even though I kept my cool, I would keep
- 50:23Speaker 2: my cool for as long as I could. But at
- 50:25Speaker 2: some point the cool goes out the window when you're
- 50:29Speaker 2: when these things, these situations are happening, and sometimes you
- 50:32Speaker 2: lose your cool and I lost my cool a lot.
- 50:35Speaker 2: I was a very emotional I was emotional as fuck
- 50:40Speaker 2: because I'm really living this in real time, so yeah,
- 50:44Speaker 2: I am. And it was like got her cut, Okay,
- 50:51Speaker 2: wrap it up. Yeah, and I'm just like I'm left
- 50:56Speaker 2: there at a complete fucking emotional wreck. And they were like,
- 51:00Speaker 2: we got the scene, all right, let's go, and I'm
- 51:02Speaker 2: just over here fucking losing it with no recourse. There
- 51:08Speaker 2: was no recourse. There was no therapists we could go
- 51:11Speaker 2: talk to afterwards, there was no there was nothing. It
- 51:15Speaker 2: was just wreck your shit and send you home. Go.
- 51:19Speaker 2: That's basically what it was.
- 51:23Speaker 1: It was a lot, and it was a lot more.
- 51:26Speaker 1: When Nico came on the show, do you regret.
- 51:32Speaker 2: Absolutely ten thousand percent regret that whole I regret I
- 51:44Speaker 2: regret meeting Nico, Yeah, that whole situation. If there was,
- 51:52Speaker 2: you know, the big do over buttons, if I had
- 51:56Speaker 2: one to push, it would be him, Yes, why yes,
- 52:03Speaker 2: it would be him, because with him came a lot
- 52:06Speaker 2: of bad decisions, very bad decisions I can't take back
- 52:14Speaker 2: came with that.
- 52:15Speaker 1: With that situation, it's about the sex tape. Do you
- 52:19Speaker 1: regret doing it?
- 52:20Speaker 2: Absolutely?
- 52:22Speaker 1: Do you feel like he manipulated you.
- 52:24Speaker 2: I felt manipulation was a part of it. Naive, I
- 52:31Speaker 2: was gullible as fuck. I had lack of anybody around
- 52:37Speaker 2: me with any type of integrity to give me good
- 52:40Speaker 2: advice or to steer me in the right direction. It
- 52:44Speaker 2: was a lot of factors. It was a lot of
- 52:46Speaker 2: factors to go along with that situation.
- 52:52Speaker 1: I remember you called me, do you do you remember this?
- 52:55Speaker 1: Tell me I was in I was in Mexico. Fail
- 52:59Speaker 1: me Niani Leak's Wedding special and I'm in Mexico because
- 53:05Speaker 1: the that was a Bridesmade Trip, Bachelor red party. There
- 53:08Speaker 1: you go and you call me and you told me
- 53:12Speaker 1: what was going on. And I said to you, oh, baby,
- 53:17Speaker 1: don't no, I don't like that. I said, you're I said,
- 53:20Speaker 1: you're You're You're so much better than that. You're so
- 53:22Speaker 1: much better than that. And I could tell at the
- 53:25Speaker 1: time that your headspace was somewhere else and I knew that.
- 53:35Speaker 1: And listen when I say this, and I'm saying this
- 53:37Speaker 1: as somebody who understands what you reality stars have to
- 53:41Speaker 1: go through. It is a unique world. And it's sort
- 53:46Speaker 1: of like being a part of a sports team. Like
- 53:52Speaker 1: you will you will never know what the athletes have
- 53:54Speaker 1: to go through, discipline, training, all of that to to
- 53:57Speaker 1: be you know, the top five starting players. So I
- 54:01Speaker 1: knew you were at a place where that show was
- 54:03Speaker 1: so fucking big and it was like topping yourself every
- 54:06Speaker 1: chance you can get right, And I just knew you
- 54:09Speaker 1: were being influenced by people around you. I appreciate the
- 54:13Speaker 1: fact that you knew with me, I will always tell
- 54:15Speaker 1: you the truth. And although I said, Pitt, you don't
- 54:18Speaker 1: need that girl by blah blah blah boom, I also
- 54:21Speaker 1: knew that because I wasn't on the show with you anymore,
- 54:24Speaker 1: that our connection where because when we were together, you'd
- 54:28Speaker 1: be like and I'm like, you'd be like, ok right.
- 54:34Speaker 1: So I knew that, unfortunately, because we weren't together, that
- 54:37Speaker 1: you have other people around you. And I just remember
- 54:42Speaker 1: thinking to myself, like, I just want her to be okay.
- 54:45Speaker 1: I just want her to be okay. Everything hit the fan.
- 54:50Speaker 1: I do want to ask you this is your is
- 54:54Speaker 1: even aware? Yes? And how do you remember? Do you
- 54:58Speaker 1: remember the day that you have that conversation with her?
- 55:01Speaker 1: Did she find out you decided to tell her your
- 55:03Speaker 1: own She already knew, she already knew do you know
- 55:08Speaker 1: how old she was when she knew? She was.
- 55:14Speaker 2: I think eleven or twelve when she caught wind of it.
- 55:22Speaker 1: Do you know how she called her friends?
- 55:26Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, because kids were watching Love and Hip
- 55:29Speaker 2: Hop at the time, and their parents were letting and
- 55:31Speaker 2: watch it. I never let even watch the show, but
- 55:34Speaker 2: you know that was me. So many other parents were
- 55:37Speaker 2: letting their kids watch the show, and so, yeah, some
- 55:40Speaker 2: kids said something to her about it. She can she no,
- 55:44Speaker 2: she never said anything. She kept it to herself. She
- 55:47Speaker 2: never said anything. And every time I'm like, Okay, I'm
- 55:51Speaker 2: gonna tell her, I'm going to tell her, and I
- 55:53Speaker 2: was like, oh, it's not the right time. I kept
- 55:54Speaker 2: thinking it wasn't the right time. So when I finally
- 55:56Speaker 2: told her, she had already known.
- 55:58Speaker 1: Do you remember how old she was?
- 55:59Speaker 2: And told her, uh, thirteen thirteen?
- 56:04Speaker 1: And how did she just said I already knew?
- 56:06Speaker 2: Yeah? She was like you she was like she already knew. Yeah.
- 56:12Speaker 2: But you know that was a crazy moment because I'm like,
- 56:17Speaker 2: you know, what does it tell you? And you know,
- 56:19Speaker 2: I didn't want you to find out any other way,
- 56:21Speaker 2: But I should have known Love and Hip Hop was
- 56:26Speaker 2: so big unless I kept her completely under a rock.
- 56:33Speaker 2: How was she not?
- 56:34Speaker 4: You know?
- 56:35Speaker 1: And that alone was what's crazy is it was low
- 56:39Speaker 1: key as big as ray Ja and Kims. It was huge.
- 56:43Speaker 2: They broke the internet.
- 56:45Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah broke. Did you think that that would
- 56:49Speaker 1: have given you the star power of Kim Kardashian. No,
- 56:57Speaker 1: you didn't think that.
- 56:58Speaker 2: No, absolutely not. And my actual reason for doing it
- 57:03Speaker 2: was once I had the conversation with the people at
- 57:07Speaker 2: Vivid and they were like, this is out in the world,
- 57:13Speaker 2: like your shit's out there. He shopped it. It's all over,
- 57:19Speaker 2: so it can be all over or it can be
- 57:22Speaker 2: all over and controlled. And in my you know, I'm like, well,
- 57:27Speaker 2: I would rather be controlled then it just be all over.
- 57:30Speaker 2: Uncontrolled was my thought process in the moment for even
- 57:35Speaker 2: signing with them, because I was like no. At first,
- 57:38Speaker 2: I'm like I'm not, no, like no, because they initially
- 57:41Speaker 2: just wanted to talk to us. I guess they wanted
- 57:43Speaker 2: to let me know that this is everywhere, and that
- 57:48Speaker 2: was my reason for actually signing with them, because I
- 57:51Speaker 2: wanted it to be controlled, which I mean, yeah, yeah.
- 57:57Speaker 1: Do you remember how much they paid you.
- 58:01Speaker 2: Was it a lot? Yeah? Well, what I did was
- 58:05Speaker 2: took the deal to be paid over time. I didn't
- 58:08Speaker 2: want just a lump sum. I wanted it to just
- 58:10Speaker 2: be spread out.
- 58:12Speaker 1: Over time, hundreds of thousands. Okay, okay. On the show,
- 58:20Speaker 1: you also had a babocate Michelle. Did that surprise you?
- 58:29Speaker 1: Because you guys, Because again I'm not on the show
- 58:33Speaker 1: and I'm watching it, I'm like, they got be But
- 58:36Speaker 1: but so it was so strange to me. Obviously, you know,
- 58:39Speaker 1: she hit hit you with the flower because she was
- 58:42Speaker 1: arguing about Nico living with his roommate.
- 58:44Speaker 4: Edit A.
- 58:46Speaker 2: It did surprise me because I thought Hey and I
- 58:49Speaker 2: were cool. I thought we were friends, and she came
- 58:53Speaker 2: out of left field with this, and it surprised me
- 58:57Speaker 2: all the way. But in that moment, it really showed
- 58:59Speaker 2: me who came a show was And I never forgot it.
- 59:04Speaker 1: Do y'all speak?
- 59:05Speaker 2: Absolutely not. We haven't spoken since that time.
- 59:08Speaker 1: Are you serious?
- 59:10Speaker 2: Have not spoken since that time? I was like, got it? Noted,
- 59:16Speaker 2: You'll never get to do that to me again in
- 59:17Speaker 2: your fucking life. Yeah.
- 59:21Speaker 1: How do you feel about her being on Love? How
- 59:23Speaker 1: do you feel about her being on the Real Housewise,
- 59:25Speaker 1: I'm good for her.
- 59:26Speaker 2: Like I said, if you listen, it's hard to these
- 59:30Speaker 2: hard times, if you can maneuver and get where you
- 59:33Speaker 2: need to be and elevate yourself. Good for her, good
- 59:35Speaker 2: for her, for her country music career, all that, but
- 59:38Speaker 2: her as a person. As far as her and I concerned,
- 59:40Speaker 2: I don't fuck what came to show?
- 59:42Speaker 1: Do you fuck with Arion Davis?
- 59:43Speaker 2: I do not.
- 59:44Speaker 1: That was her best friend? Yes, where did things go
- 59:47Speaker 1: wrong with you? In Aria?
- 59:49Speaker 2: She continued to show me who she was as well,
- 59:52Speaker 2: little things here and there. You consistently you befriended everybody
- 59:55Speaker 2: on the show. They didn't fuck with me. Did you
- 59:57Speaker 2: realize that even down to Nego's wife you befriended. Is
- 1:00:02Speaker 2: this for the spotlight? Is it for a shine? Is
- 1:00:04Speaker 2: it for?
- 1:00:04Speaker 1: What is that for?
- 1:00:05Speaker 2: Because my best friend is not gonna be friend, he
- 1:00:07Speaker 2: goes wife. It's just not gonna do it. It's not
- 1:00:09Speaker 2: gonna fucking happen. And so I had to take sit
- 1:00:13Speaker 2: back and be like okay, and I kept giving her passes.
- 1:00:16Speaker 2: I kept giving her passes, and at some point I'm like, Okay,
- 1:00:23Speaker 2: you need to fucking look at yourself. You can't complain
- 1:00:26Speaker 2: about this person doing this and doing that, and you
- 1:00:29Speaker 2: keep allowing it, You keep being okay with it. You
- 1:00:32Speaker 2: keep being cool with her after she does these things.
- 1:00:35Speaker 2: So I just had to be an. I knew area
- 1:00:39Speaker 2: for years.
- 1:00:40Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, So is it true that you've recommended her?
- 1:00:44Speaker 2: Absolutely? Absolutely? She was my best friend.
- 1:00:48Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 1:00:49Speaker 2: Why not have my my best friend come on the
- 1:00:51Speaker 2: show with me and go through this journey with me? Absolutely?
- 1:00:56Speaker 1: What do you think changed the show?
- 1:01:00Speaker 2: You've seen it. You've seen people from where they started
- 1:01:04Speaker 2: and they get on TV and it sh changes them.
- 1:01:07Speaker 2: It changes them.
- 1:01:09Speaker 1: You know what's so fascinating. You are literally the same
- 1:01:11Speaker 1: person since day one, since then.
- 1:01:13Speaker 2: You really are since day.
- 1:01:16Speaker 1: What you've always been. And I mean that you are
- 1:01:21Speaker 1: one of the rare girls of mine that the first
- 1:01:24Speaker 1: of I met you, you have remained that person. It
- 1:01:30Speaker 1: does sad to me about the ending of your friendship
- 1:01:32Speaker 1: with Arian, because I knew how much you guys love
- 1:01:34Speaker 1: each other. Do you think that, Well, let me ask
- 1:01:42Speaker 1: you this instead. Do you remember what the last straw was?
- 1:01:46Speaker 2: I don't. It's been so many years. I don't. It
- 1:01:49Speaker 2: was so much and I was just like, I don't
- 1:01:53Speaker 2: want to do this anymore, and I just stopped.
- 1:01:59Speaker 1: You were in a relate show with Tai Young. Ty
- 1:02:04Speaker 1: Young has been said by you know, the fans, your
- 1:02:08Speaker 1: girl Claudia Jordan, that thy Young likes to date women
- 1:02:15Speaker 1: in reality television. There were rumors she was dating Drew,
- 1:02:19Speaker 1: So Dora, why well, first of all, maybe maybe I
- 1:02:31Speaker 1: found you. You ready to allow the clip for some reason? Okay, yeah,
- 1:02:37Speaker 1: you know, okay, I.
- 1:02:38Speaker 2: Just wanted to pat my hair.
- 1:02:40Speaker 1: That's okay, y'all. I just found some energy all of
- 1:02:44Speaker 1: the Scientology or Oliver baby. But you brought her on
- 1:02:50Speaker 1: the show. Do you think thy Young really loved you?
- 1:02:56Speaker 2: I do?
- 1:02:56Speaker 1: Okay? Why did you and tie Young break up?
- 1:03:01Speaker 2: It was the marriage, the marriage thing that was the
- 1:03:06Speaker 2: catalyst that really broke us up.
- 1:03:08Speaker 1: What marriage thing she proposed?
- 1:03:11Speaker 2: And I said yes in the moment, and then I
- 1:03:16Speaker 2: was like I can't, I can't. This is not what
- 1:03:19Speaker 2: I was supposed to be doing. And then it was
- 1:03:23Speaker 2: like a couple of days later, I was like, I
- 1:03:25Speaker 2: can do it, not on camera in real life. So
- 1:03:29Speaker 2: the whole, the whole proposal was very you know mm production. Yeah,
- 1:03:34Speaker 2: and like why would you do that? Why would you
- 1:03:37Speaker 2: do that? None of my people were there. None of
- 1:03:41Speaker 2: my people were there, not my daughter, not any of
- 1:03:44Speaker 2: my friends. I had all my friend's numbers. None of
- 1:03:48Speaker 2: my people were at this proposal. Only her friends were there,
- 1:03:53Speaker 2: which was a red flag for me. So I'm looking
- 1:03:57Speaker 2: like and I, you know, slept on it, and I
- 1:04:02Speaker 2: was like, mm, this is not what I'm supposed to
- 1:04:05Speaker 2: be doing. So I was like, here you go, ring
- 1:04:10Speaker 2: back and that's was the beginning of the end of us,
- 1:04:17Speaker 2: because she tried to to get to you know, rekindle,
- 1:04:21Speaker 2: and you know, we didn't just break it off. I
- 1:04:24Speaker 2: was just like, I don't want to do this marriage thing.
- 1:04:28Speaker 2: She ended up giving me the ring back and it
- 1:04:31Speaker 2: was a whole thing. And then we got back together,
- 1:04:33Speaker 2: and then she cheated and it was the whole thing.
- 1:04:37Speaker 1: So do you remember who she cheated on you with?
- 1:04:39Speaker 2: Absolutely?
- 1:04:40Speaker 1: Who was it? There's a few people, reality stars.
- 1:04:45Speaker 2: No, nothing, But before that, it was you know, someone
- 1:04:49Speaker 2: in her in her world.
- 1:04:51Speaker 1: Somebody in the w NBA. How did you find out
- 1:04:56Speaker 1: about her and Juice DOORA?
- 1:05:00Speaker 2: Uh, you know, Atlanta's a small It's big, but it's
- 1:05:03Speaker 2: a small place, small.
- 1:05:08Speaker 1: Business off the street. Do not live in Atlanta a lot.
- 1:05:11Speaker 1: Atlanta is the smallest city.
- 1:05:14Speaker 2: Yeah, personal experience, go ahead, people talk, people talk, So yeah,
- 1:05:19Speaker 2: I was getting you know, phone calls and things.
- 1:05:24Speaker 1: Yeah, did Tipe break your heart?
- 1:05:30Speaker 2: She hurt me? Yeah she did. She's very she's Scorpio
- 1:05:37Speaker 2: and see yeah both of them are Scorpio, so is justly. Yeah,
- 1:05:43Speaker 2: they're very. Once they feel scorned or or hurt or whatever,
- 1:05:52Speaker 2: they make it their business to get you the fuck back. Yeah,
- 1:05:58Speaker 2: and she did that. She did that, She made her business.
- 1:06:02Speaker 2: She was like, she was calculated as motherfucking the way
- 1:06:04Speaker 2: she did what she did.
- 1:06:06Speaker 1: I said, okay, because she was hurt that you didn't
- 1:06:09Speaker 1: want to get married.
- 1:06:10Speaker 2: That that's my take on it, because why would you
- 1:06:14Speaker 2: pursue me back just to do what you did?
- 1:06:17Speaker 1: She had to humble you. Because one thing about a
- 1:06:20Speaker 1: Scorpio when they love, they love very hard. And when
- 1:06:24Speaker 1: they give their love to you and they feel like
- 1:06:27Speaker 1: you crushed it, baby, they believe in revenge.
- 1:06:31Speaker 2: And she did that. And we were together almost seven years.
- 1:06:35Speaker 2: Never cheated on that, never cheated on her in seven years.
- 1:06:40Speaker 2: But then when that situation happened, Oh yeah, she she
- 1:06:44Speaker 2: was like, yeah I got you, bitch, Yeah she did.
- 1:06:48Speaker 2: That was it?
- 1:06:49Speaker 1: That was it justin fidelity or other stuff.
- 1:06:54Speaker 2: It was that. It was that.
- 1:06:55Speaker 1: Yeah, would you ever date another woman? Again probably not. No,
- 1:07:02Speaker 1: you're done? Is it okay? Question for you? Because you're
- 1:07:06Speaker 1: openly bisexual?
- 1:07:08Speaker 2: Oh no, that's a stretch.
- 1:07:12Speaker 1: Oh wait, what is it?
- 1:07:15Speaker 2: That's a stretch?
- 1:07:16Speaker 1: Oh I'm sorry. Apologies labeling you stretch. I was gonna
- 1:07:24Speaker 1: ask about you know that first apology? Don't use so.
- 1:07:30Speaker 1: I mean, okay, you've been honest about being intimate with
- 1:07:36Speaker 1: women in the past, right, But what tie was Ty?
- 1:07:41Speaker 1: Just a special person who's who happens to be a
- 1:07:44Speaker 1: warmer even in love with Yes, got it?
- 1:07:48Speaker 2: But you.
- 1:07:49Speaker 1: You don't see yourself as bisexual?
- 1:07:51Speaker 2: No?
- 1:07:52Speaker 1: Okay, what do you see yourself as?
- 1:07:54Speaker 2: Maybe that's you know, in my mine, you know, maybe
- 1:08:00Speaker 2: the world sees me as that because yes, okay, I
- 1:08:04Speaker 2: dated men my whole life and then I had a
- 1:08:07Speaker 2: stint with women, right, and now I'm over it. So
- 1:08:14Speaker 2: I don't know what do you call that?
- 1:08:16Speaker 1: Is that bisexual? I don't know? Well, I'm gays, honey?
- 1:08:22Speaker 1: Was you what a man is? What another man? The
- 1:08:25Speaker 1: society says you're gay? But I do feel like with
- 1:08:27Speaker 1: the women. Look, the rules are different, and that's just
- 1:08:30Speaker 1: what it is. But that's a whole other time.
- 1:08:32Speaker 2: I know what the rules are. I have never seen
- 1:08:34Speaker 2: the rule book, so I don't know. But yeah I
- 1:08:39Speaker 2: did that, I had my experience. I don't think I
- 1:08:42Speaker 2: want to do it again. Matter of fact, I don't.
- 1:08:44Speaker 2: And yeah I've moved on.
- 1:08:47Speaker 1: And yeah, are you dating anybody right now? I am
- 1:08:54Speaker 1: is a man?
- 1:08:57Speaker 2: Of course?
- 1:08:58Speaker 1: Is he in the industry?
- 1:09:00Speaker 4: He is not?
- 1:09:00Speaker 1: Oh? How along? Yam in dating? What a year he
- 1:09:08Speaker 1: lives in Atlanta? Is he a white collar blue collar worker? No? Neither.
- 1:09:18Speaker 2: What does he do? He does what he is?
- 1:09:23Speaker 1: Oh? Yeah, are you in love? You haven't posted a man,
- 1:09:32Speaker 1: and I won't. You will never go public again?
- 1:09:36Speaker 2: Never, no, never, stay out my motherfucking business. That is
- 1:09:42Speaker 2: the quickest way to ruin your shit. All these girls,
- 1:09:47Speaker 2: and kudos to you if you want to do what
- 1:09:49Speaker 2: you do. But everybody's putting these relationships online and letting
- 1:09:54Speaker 2: the world into their business and then it's good when
- 1:09:57Speaker 2: it's good, and when it's bad, it is bad, and
- 1:10:00Speaker 2: it's all, oh, yeah, no, I would never do that again.
- 1:10:05Speaker 2: You're gonna guess and wonder till the day I die?
- 1:10:09Speaker 1: Do you want to get married to him?
- 1:10:12Speaker 2: So you know, marriage has never been high on my
- 1:10:15Speaker 2: list of things to do with anybody. I just don't.
- 1:10:21Speaker 2: My trust in humans and just human beings is you know,
- 1:10:31Speaker 2: I can love and love and love, but I know
- 1:10:34Speaker 2: human nature. You know what I'm saying. And I've been
- 1:10:40Speaker 2: tried and tested my entire fucking life, so I don't
- 1:10:43Speaker 2: know if if that's what I want to do, tie
- 1:10:47Speaker 2: my whole everything up into somebody and finances and bake
- 1:10:51Speaker 2: accounts and homes and this and that, and then when
- 1:10:53Speaker 2: it goes left, then you gotta It's so easy to
- 1:10:55Speaker 2: get married, and it's so hard to get unfucking married.
- 1:10:58Speaker 1: Who want to do that? Not me?
- 1:11:02Speaker 2: I'm cool. We can, we can have we can be
- 1:11:04Speaker 2: life partners or whatever you want to call it. And
- 1:11:08Speaker 2: if I or he decides to go their way or
- 1:11:11Speaker 2: do whatever else, then we just gonna do that. I
- 1:11:14Speaker 2: don't have to have a piece of paper to to,
- 1:11:17Speaker 2: you know, or go stand in front of a judge
- 1:11:20Speaker 2: or whatever. I don't have to do all that.
- 1:11:23Speaker 1: I agreed, don't do it. I'm proud of you for
- 1:11:26Speaker 1: not even trying to promote your relationship absolutely even so
- 1:11:30Speaker 1: stick with that to my questions, all you got to run.
- 1:11:33Speaker 1: But obviously you know recent news have been released where
- 1:11:40Speaker 1: Basketball Wives is not returning anymore. Chaotic recently did a
- 1:11:47Speaker 1: post saying he's her from a very reliable source that
- 1:11:51Speaker 1: Love and Hip Hop is going to be canceled Miami
- 1:11:54Speaker 1: and Atlanta. Wow. He said that yesterday on Live. You
- 1:12:03Speaker 1: are the architect of that franchise. And even when I
- 1:12:07Speaker 1: interviewed Kirk and Rashida, they still they said, let's be clear,
- 1:12:12Speaker 1: it was the Stevie, Me Me Jos Lene show, and
- 1:12:15Speaker 1: we all but just a part of it. You know
- 1:12:18Speaker 1: when you look at the show, now, what do you
- 1:12:22Speaker 1: think about this legacy?
- 1:12:24Speaker 2: So you know I never watched, right, No, I never
- 1:12:28Speaker 2: watched Carlos. I think I saw the first season and
- 1:12:31Speaker 2: I was so tormented and traumatized by what I saw.
- 1:12:38Speaker 2: I was like, I can't watch this, and I never
- 1:12:41Speaker 2: watched it again. Even and all the reunions, I'm like,
- 1:12:45Speaker 2: I don't know what's going on, Like they would have to,
- 1:12:48Speaker 2: you know, of course they give us the thing to
- 1:12:50Speaker 2: get yourself, but I really didn't know what was going on.
- 1:12:53Speaker 2: If I didn't film it, I had no clue what
- 1:12:55Speaker 2: the fuck was happening because I had to keep my sanity.
- 1:12:59Speaker 2: You know, I'm finding out my best friend is talking
- 1:13:02Speaker 2: shit about me to this one and that I was like,
- 1:13:05Speaker 2: I can't watch this, so I stopped watching it after
- 1:13:08Speaker 2: the first season. I was like, this is too much.
- 1:13:11Speaker 2: I never watched, so I don't really know what's going
- 1:13:13Speaker 2: on like nowadays unless people tell me or I might
- 1:13:17Speaker 2: see clips on social media, a clip here and there,
- 1:13:20Speaker 2: but like to just know, oh this is happening, I
- 1:13:23Speaker 2: don't know. I have to ask somebody, now what's going on? Yeah,
- 1:13:26Speaker 2: I don't watch.
- 1:13:27Speaker 1: So you have no idea what's going on? No, what
- 1:13:30Speaker 1: advice would you give reality girlies about, you know, financially
- 1:13:39Speaker 1: setting herself up because at one one day it is
- 1:13:43Speaker 1: going to end.
- 1:13:44Speaker 2: Yes, you have for though, Always have something on the side,
- 1:13:50Speaker 2: Have a product to sell, have something, especially while you're
- 1:13:55Speaker 2: on the show, while you're on TV and you're hot
- 1:13:58Speaker 2: and you're popping capitalized off of that. Use that as
- 1:14:02Speaker 2: a stepping stone to create a business or whatever else
- 1:14:06Speaker 2: it is that you want to do. So when this
- 1:14:08Speaker 2: is over, you have something to fall back on. Because
- 1:14:11Speaker 2: when it's done, it's done. There's no more checks coming in.
- 1:14:15Speaker 2: It's done. Your notoriety is going to fizzle out unless
- 1:14:18Speaker 2: you were just hot, hot hot, So always have a
- 1:14:22Speaker 2: plan B and always make sure you have somebody looking
- 1:14:26Speaker 2: over your contract.
- 1:14:28Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, A good lawyer, A good lawyer. My last
- 1:14:33Speaker 1: question for you is obviously, you know we talked earlier
- 1:14:36Speaker 1: about you know, you've been in the business for a
- 1:14:38Speaker 1: very long time. We see what's been happening with Diddie
- 1:14:42Speaker 1: and stuff like that. And I know Sarah is one
- 1:14:45Speaker 1: of your best friends, one of his child's mother.
- 1:14:49Speaker 2: Thank you.
- 1:14:51Speaker 1: What are your thoughts on what's been going on with him?
- 1:14:53Speaker 1: Are you surprised or do you feel like time has
- 1:14:58Speaker 1: finally caught up to him?
- 1:15:02Speaker 2: Double edged sword there, because the things that you do
- 1:15:06Speaker 2: in the dark, somehow always come to the light. So
- 1:15:14Speaker 2: it's really crazy to me because this man is being
- 1:15:16Speaker 2: persecuted for being a freak. He's in jail for being
- 1:15:19Speaker 2: a freak for the most part, which if people knew
- 1:15:25Speaker 2: what a lot of other people were doing today bedroom,
- 1:15:28Speaker 2: he'd be a whole lot of people in jail, do
- 1:15:30Speaker 2: you know what I'm saying? So, yeah, he's done some
- 1:15:34Speaker 2: really bad, terrible things. Should it be a regal case?
- 1:15:42Speaker 2: I think that's a stretch. Yeah, it's just it's a
- 1:15:48Speaker 2: it's a weird I honestly believe they tried to they
- 1:15:54Speaker 2: felt like he was too big for his breeches, for
- 1:15:57Speaker 2: lack of better words, and they were like, we're gonna
- 1:16:00Speaker 2: show you that you can be knocked down and put
- 1:16:03Speaker 2: in your place there and there you have it.
- 1:16:07Speaker 1: Did you know that you know he was abusive to women?
- 1:16:13Speaker 2: Yes, I well I hadn't seen it, but I had
- 1:16:16Speaker 2: heard stories about it. I heard stories about it.
- 1:16:20Speaker 1: Yes, did you watch the Cassie video?
- 1:16:26Speaker 2: Yes, will be horrible, horrible, like horrible on every sense
- 1:16:34Speaker 2: of the word. Yeah, there was no There was no
- 1:16:39Speaker 2: words for that, Like my mouth was on the floor,
- 1:16:41Speaker 2: like what the fuck horrible?
- 1:16:45Speaker 1: When you would be around him, would you see anything
- 1:16:48Speaker 1: sinister or feel of senator energy or was he just
- 1:16:51Speaker 1: like everybody else in the industry.
- 1:16:53Speaker 2: No, he definitely has a power air about him or
- 1:17:01Speaker 2: needed to be in control. Would he would belittle people
- 1:17:08Speaker 2: in his tone and things of that nature? I saw it.
- 1:17:12Speaker 2: I saw it. We didn't really get along the best.
- 1:17:15Speaker 1: Why not?
- 1:17:16Speaker 2: He's a dickhead, an asshole?
- 1:17:21Speaker 1: And you would because I know your mouth, and you would,
- 1:17:24Speaker 1: you would say how you.
- 1:17:25Speaker 2: Felt he's an asshole bottom line, like he wasn't the
- 1:17:30Speaker 2: fluffiest person. Let's be let's be clear, he wasn't He
- 1:17:34Speaker 2: wasn't no fluffy type dude. He was a fucking asshole.
- 1:17:39Speaker 2: Would you tell Stevie like, why are you like friends
- 1:17:43Speaker 2: with home?
- 1:17:43Speaker 1: Ay?
- 1:17:44Speaker 2: That's a grown ass man. And I'd be like, Hey,
- 1:17:50Speaker 2: you're grown ass man. You make grown ass man decisions.
- 1:17:52Speaker 2: But that's your homeboy. That's your homeboy. So that I could,
- 1:17:57Speaker 2: you know, that's on that's you got that.
- 1:18:00Speaker 1: But and how is Sarah doing?
- 1:18:06Speaker 2: She's good, yeah, you know throughout it all, her and
- 1:18:11Speaker 2: chants are good. You know, therapy of course is needed
- 1:18:15Speaker 2: and it's going to take time. That was a that
