I was like, oh, 0:02:09.919 --> 0:02:12.520 this is gonna be a fun movie. But we just clicked. Yeah, 0:02:12.720 --> 0:02:16.480 it's because we've had different experiences, but our backgrounds are 0:02:16.560 --> 0:02:18.800 very similar. We both thought that we're just gonna end 0:02:18.880 --> 0:02:20.679 up being that statistic. Yeah. I thought it was gonna 0:02:20.680 --> 0:02:22.280 be a baby mama. Yeah.

And so when you 0:02:29.040 --> 0:02:30.520 came up to me one day and you were like, 0:02:30.560 --> 0:02:35.079 I know some of your homeboys in Baltimore A way 0:02:37.680 --> 0:02:40.360 like I go some of your homeboys in Baltimore and 0:02:40.400 --> 0:02:42.960 you were like me and you we got similar stories 0:02:43.000 --> 0:02:45.600 wink wink, And I was like, all right, this is 0:02:45.600 --> 0:02:48.079 gonna be good because I could just be myself. Yea, 0:02:48.639 --> 0:02:52.760 you created something for yourself, and you have been relent less. 0:02:53.040 --> 0:02:55.560 I feel like personally, everything that I've been through has 0:02:55.600 --> 0:02:59.000 prepared me for this journey. Like I used to get 0:02:59.040 --> 0:03:01.160 picked on and believe taught. People used to talk mass 0:03:01.160 --> 0:03:04.760 about me in school. Now I'm like a celebrity. Let's 0:03:04.880 --> 0:03:07.160 hear a little bit about your story, just in case 0:03:07.400 --> 0:03:10.160 a red table Talk family might not know what your 0:03:10.200 --> 0:03:13.480 story is. I'm from South central Los Angeles, born and 0:03:13.560 --> 0:03:17.240 raised my mom. She raised me for quite some time, 0:03:17.440 --> 0:03:20.440 and my brothers and sisters and everything. And she had 0:03:20.480 --> 0:03:25.000 a really bad accident and basically suffering from some traumatic injuries. 0:03:25.240 --> 0:03:27.960 She had brain and yeah, braining her head went through 0:03:27.960 --> 0:03:30.600 a windshield. So as she survived it, and it took 0:03:30.639 --> 0:03:33.000 her like three months to learn how to walk again talk, 0:03:33.120 --> 0:03:35.720 and then it took a long time for her memories 0:03:35.760 --> 0:03:38.800 to come back. And I remember being at the hospital 0:03:39.120 --> 0:03:41.760 and the doctor saying, you know, your mom, she'll never 0:03:41.840 --> 0:03:43.680 be the same. You're gonna have to help her a 0:03:43.680 --> 0:03:46.720 lot more now. So she wasn't able to do a 0:03:46.760 --> 0:03:48.880 lot of things. So basically everything she had talked me 0:03:48.960 --> 0:03:51.560 up to that point, I was teaching her. But she 0:03:51.640 --> 0:03:55.040 became very abusive and violent and never came back to 0:03:55.160 --> 0:03:57.680 being my mom. She was somebody else. You had to 0:03:57.680 --> 0:04:00.839 go into foster care because of your mother's condition. Yeah, 0:04:00.880 --> 0:04:05.080 she wasn't able to take care of us. Like I was. 0:04:05.560 --> 0:04:08.760 Turning thirteen, my two sisters got placed together in the home, 0:04:08.800 --> 0:04:10.600 My two brothers got placed together in the home, and 0:04:10.640 --> 0:04:12.560 then I had to go to McLaren Hall for like 0:04:12.560 --> 0:04:15.400 a few days because they couldn't find a place for me. Right, 0:04:15.640 --> 0:04:17.880 it's kind of set up like a juvenile detention center. 0:04:18.000 --> 0:04:20.800 I guess it is in some ways for like kids 0:04:20.800 --> 0:04:23.480 with behavioral issues or when they can't find a place 0:04:23.520 --> 0:04:26.279 to place you. So then I'm in McLaren Hall and 0:04:26.320 --> 0:04:28.280 these girls are like, you're gonna cry tonight, We're gonna 0:04:28.279 --> 0:04:30.360 beat your ass. We're gonna bah blah blah. And I'm like, 0:04:30.680 --> 0:04:34.200 all right, come on, ready, there, come on, trying to 0:04:34.240 --> 0:04:36.920 make them laugh and be silly and like, and they 0:04:37.000 --> 0:04:39.040 laughed and everything. They still came for my ass. But 0:04:39.200 --> 0:04:42.280 still it was after that them seeing how silly and 0:04:42.279 --> 0:04:44.320 goofy I was there was like she a clown, she 0:04:44.440 --> 0:04:46.600 or whatever, And it wasn't like trying to beat me 0:04:46.680 --> 0:04:48.520 up on a regular basis. When I think about it, it 0:04:48.400 --> 0:04:50.880 it was really hard, but I'm so grateful for the 0:04:51.000 --> 0:04:53.640 experience because I got to see how other people live. 0:04:53.760 --> 0:04:57.160 I thought just my family was my family was crazy 0:04:57.200 --> 0:05:02.200 and got mental issues. But turns out everybody like people, 0:05:02.720 --> 0:05:06.560 people like people. Everybody we all messed up and then 0:05:06.640 --> 0:05:09.880 so it made me just appreciate even more just being 0:05:09.920 --> 0:05:13.080 a human. So what happened as far as you get 0:05:13.120 --> 0:05:15.920 into the tenth grade and and really not being able 0:05:15.960 --> 0:05:18.240 to read, there's really a lot of people. I gotta 0:05:18.320 --> 0:05:20.680 say thank you too, because I cheated for a lot 0:05:20.720 --> 0:05:24.480 of people, and a lot of them got me through 0:05:24.560 --> 0:05:27.120 high school. Was it in high school that you struggled 0:05:27.160 --> 0:05:29.680 with reading or was it before that? It was before 0:05:29.760 --> 0:05:32.680 that end. By a tenth grade, my drama teacher figured 0:05:32.720 --> 0:05:35.000 out I couldn't really read like I could read like 0:05:35.080 --> 0:05:37.000 three letter words for the words of things that you 0:05:37.040 --> 0:05:40.160 see every day. Because the TV, you know, fast school joints. 0:05:40.160 --> 0:05:42.120 I can see that I know what it is. Anyways, 0:05:42.120 --> 0:05:44.600 me in school, this girl, I can't remember her first name. 0:05:44.600 --> 0:05:47.520 I just remember her last name was Lee, and I'll 0:05:47.520 --> 0:05:49.880 try to make sure I always sat behind her. Every 0:05:49.920 --> 0:05:52.320 time there was like a question, she always raised her hands. 0:05:52.320 --> 0:05:54.440 I figured, oh, she's smart. Right, So then I'll be like, 0:05:55.160 --> 0:05:57.040 what you get on that last test? Now, I gotta 0:05:57.080 --> 0:06:00.559 a oh man, you're smart as hell. Can I can maybe? 0:06:00.560 --> 0:06:02.600 Can I see your homework? Let me see, let me 0:06:02.600 --> 0:06:04.320 see if I did my homework right. I didn't do 0:06:04.400 --> 0:06:08.440 my homework at all, and my homework at all, I'm 0:06:08.480 --> 0:06:11.719 just copying basically all her answers. Like that's how I 0:06:11.760 --> 0:06:15.760 got through school, just professionally cheating all the time, even 0:06:15.839 --> 0:06:17.760 like we had to do like an English class and 0:06:17.760 --> 0:06:20.640 it had to do creative writing, right, and so I 0:06:20.640 --> 0:06:24.520 would just get storybooks like Garfield or something like that. 0:06:24.839 --> 0:06:28.159 I just played yourized as the worst. I listen, I'm 0:06:28.160 --> 0:06:30.040 listening to you, and I'm like, I did the same thing. 0:06:30.160 --> 0:06:32.760 I wasn't even supposed to graduate to high school. It 0:06:32.839 --> 0:06:36.360 was literally a gift my high school diploma. So your 0:06:36.440 --> 0:06:39.280 hustle was a little stronger than mine because I went 0:06:39.320 --> 0:06:41.440 to an art school, so I had a little bit 0:06:41.480 --> 0:06:46.240 more leniency. Yeah. My favorite story that you told me 0:06:46.680 --> 0:06:49.520 is the story where you found out how funny you were. 0:06:49.720 --> 0:06:52.320 My stepdad used to tell me you're stupid, and then 0:06:52.320 --> 0:06:54.040 my grandma obvious to be saying that I was stupid 0:06:54.040 --> 0:06:55.560 and my aunties would tell me I'm stupid, and my 0:06:55.560 --> 0:06:57.840 mama would say I'm stupid. At that point in time 0:06:57.920 --> 0:07:00.320 my life, anytime somebody said something to me, I would 0:07:00.360 --> 0:07:04.239 take it literal that I was stupid. So I didn't 0:07:04.240 --> 0:07:06.839 really put forth a lot of efforts to try to 0:07:06.920 --> 0:07:10.320 learn how to read or try to It was difficult already, 0:07:10.600 --> 0:07:13.120 and then if I'm stupid, what's the point. I'm gonna 0:07:13.160 --> 0:07:15.480 be a baby mama. Anyways, I already take care of kids. 0:07:15.520 --> 0:07:17.440 What I need to know how to read for. I 0:07:17.520 --> 0:07:19.440 know what how dogs look like, I know where rices 0:07:19.480 --> 0:07:21.520 look like, and I know how to cook that. I 0:07:21.560 --> 0:07:23.320 know how to use a measurement cup, I know numbers. 0:07:23.400 --> 0:07:27.040 So it was like to me, not necessary. So when 0:07:27.040 --> 0:07:29.120 I started working at the airlines and I was being 0:07:29.160 --> 0:07:31.560 silly at the ticket counter and this girl's like, girl, 0:07:31.600 --> 0:07:33.280 you are so stupid. I was like, you call me 0:07:33.320 --> 0:07:35.320 stupid one more time, and watch what's gonna happen. We're 0:07:35.320 --> 0:07:37.040 gonna have a fight up here. She was like, I'm 0:07:37.080 --> 0:07:42.600 just saying you're funny, right, And I was like, all 0:07:42.640 --> 0:07:48.640 these years probably everybody was saying I was funny. I'm 0:07:48.760 --> 0:07:53.640 nineteen years old, Like damn, I'm funny. So what was 0:07:53.680 --> 0:07:56.440 the turning point for you, TiO? It just seems like 0:07:57.040 --> 0:08:00.520 thout your life you really didn't get a lot of 0:08:00.600 --> 0:08:04.840 positive reinforcements. No, but it came from other places though, 0:08:05.000 --> 0:08:08.720 like where my social worker was so instrumental because she 0:08:08.920 --> 0:08:11.720 really paid attention to me and she really noticed that 0:08:11.800 --> 0:08:14.360 I had something, and she got me in that comedy 0:08:14.360 --> 0:08:16.840 camp and that's when I first started getting confidence. And 0:08:16.840 --> 0:08:19.520 maybe I always had confidence and didn't realize it, but 0:08:19.640 --> 0:08:22.560 that really helped me to be confident in who I 0:08:22.640 --> 0:08:24.560 am and what I look like. And I can make 0:08:24.560 --> 0:08:27.040 fun of this and and I thought I was ugly too. 0:08:27.080 --> 0:08:29.280 So it's funny because my social workers to be like, 0:08:29.320 --> 0:08:31.400 you're beautiful, and I'm like, stop. You probably say that 0:08:31.480 --> 0:08:33.679 to all the foster kids so that they don't run away. 0:08:36.360 --> 0:08:40.199 What I love about you is just how you just 0:08:40.400 --> 0:08:43.959 put your intelligence to a hustle. I mean every step 0:08:44.000 --> 0:08:47.679 of the way from your childhood, having to go through 0:08:48.160 --> 0:08:55.000 foster care system, homeless, homeless, and still never gave up. 0:08:55.440 --> 0:08:58.560 Where is your mother now? So I'm so proud of 0:08:58.559 --> 0:09:02.280 myself and her um. In December, we got her out 0:09:02.320 --> 0:09:06.400 the mental institution, got her the best psychologist got her 0:09:06.400 --> 0:09:09.600 the best doctors. She's already lost like thirty pounds. I 0:09:09.640 --> 0:09:12.480 got an apartment in Inglewood and I got hurt and 0:09:12.559 --> 0:09:15.160 my sister staying there and I'm like, I'll cover the rent, 0:09:15.320 --> 0:09:17.679 you cover everything else on mama's side, right, And that's 0:09:17.720 --> 0:09:19.760 what we're doing. It's funny to other that she's at 0:09:19.760 --> 0:09:21.400 my house. This is the first time she said like 0:09:21.520 --> 0:09:24.840 she's proud. How did it make you feel, though, when 0:09:24.880 --> 0:09:27.000 your mother told you that she was proud of girl? 0:09:27.040 --> 0:09:29.880 I was. It took everything in my heart not to 0:09:29.960 --> 0:09:32.679 just break down and cry. I just hut, they're so tight, 0:09:32.840 --> 0:09:34.320 and she was like hol to me and we're on 0:09:34.360 --> 0:09:36.040 each other, just hung it so tight and I'm just 0:09:36.120 --> 0:09:40.640 trying not to cry. And then I went to the bathroom, 0:09:40.960 --> 0:09:43.360 turned on the shower, jumping them up. It was like 0:09:46.720 --> 0:09:54.040 it's like step, we're right there. Y'all didn't get spankings, Yeah, 0:09:54.160 --> 0:10:01.040 not really. Black Little Tiff was everything that's been going 0:10:01.120 --> 0:10:04.480 on in your life as far as the rise, what 0:10:04.640 --> 0:10:06.920 has been the best part. This is probably gonna seem 0:10:06.960 --> 0:10:10.640 like really small, but to me it's the biggest thing. 0:10:10.880 --> 0:10:18.680 But when Beyonce said my name in the side, I 0:10:18.840 --> 0:10:23.959 made it this is it. Okay, I'm a celebrity now. 0:10:24.720 --> 0:10:26.920 So the Beyonce story is this. I went to a party, 0:10:26.960 --> 0:10:30.200 Beyonce was there and somebody was acting like they was 0:10:30.200 --> 0:10:32.040 out of order. So they was like pulling on me 0:10:32.280 --> 0:10:34.800 and they put their body parts on me. I ain't 0:10:34.880 --> 0:10:37.200 like that. Then when I found out she been beyond 0:10:37.360 --> 0:10:39.480 like then it was like a whole another level to it. 0:10:39.960 --> 0:10:41.800 So I went to Beyont. I was like, I'm in 0:10:41.880 --> 0:10:43.800 the party, I'm about to get in the fight, and 0:10:43.800 --> 0:10:45.319 I just need to know that this really happened. And 0:10:45.360 --> 0:10:47.200 she said yeah, she said don't do that, and I 0:10:47.280 --> 0:10:49.000 was like, well, I'm gonna need a selfie and then 0:10:49.040 --> 0:10:51.400 she took self with me and I didn't fight. In 0:10:51.480 --> 0:10:54.080 my mind, she could have been real mean about it, 0:10:54.160 --> 0:10:57.880 but she protected me and like I would have for 0:10:57.920 --> 0:11:00.600 sure probably went to jail. I know I could have 0:11:00.600 --> 0:11:02.840 got be there, and I hope b knows that that 0:11:02.840 --> 0:11:06.320 that could have all gone very badly, very bad. And 0:11:06.360 --> 0:11:08.439 I wanted her to know that I considered her a 0:11:08.520 --> 0:11:13.040 hero because I was definitely going into my head mentality. Yeah, 0:11:13.080 --> 0:11:18.839 I want you to know I was happy that she did. Now, 0:11:18.840 --> 0:11:21.200 why do you think they call it celebrity. Why can't 0:11:21.240 --> 0:11:24.800 it just be entertainer? Why because nobody threw me no party. 0:11:25.160 --> 0:11:28.560 I haven't had no celebrations yet, So where is the 0:11:28.720 --> 0:11:34.640 celebraty celebrity? Well, here's the thing. The celebration has been 0:11:34.679 --> 0:11:39.560 through the people. The people have celebrated you. Have you 0:11:39.640 --> 0:11:43.760 noticed that, I mean nice things and stuff, Tiffany, It's 0:11:43.800 --> 0:11:48.840 not just nice things, because what you represent for women 0:11:48.920 --> 0:11:54.680 who have come from similar stories like you. You have 0:11:54.840 --> 0:12:00.360 not allowed your story to make you better. And even 0:12:00.400 --> 0:12:03.880 though it makes you sad and sometimes you really struggle, 0:12:04.600 --> 0:12:08.400 you always reach high. You always reach high. And so 0:12:08.559 --> 0:12:11.240 I think what you've done for so many women who 0:12:11.400 --> 0:12:15.160 felt like they haven't had a voice, who haven't felt validated, 0:12:15.280 --> 0:12:18.760 who feel like they don't matter, you make them matter 0:12:18.920 --> 0:12:22.760 in a certain way. You you present yourself like I'm here, 0:12:22.880 --> 0:12:25.960 we here together. And this is not just about black women. 0:12:26.600 --> 0:12:29.680 I have seen all kinds of women from all different 0:12:29.720 --> 0:12:32.319 walks of life so happy to see you. Every time 0:12:32.360 --> 0:12:34.640 they see me. What's Tiffany like? Like? What is she 0:12:34.800 --> 0:12:39.679 really like? And to me, that's a celebration. People are 0:12:39.800 --> 0:12:42.960 celebrating you in that way, you know, and that's that 0:12:43.040 --> 0:12:46.560 to me more means more than a party. But to me, 0:12:46.880 --> 0:12:51.120 a celebration is a party. All Right, we're gonna have 0:12:51.120 --> 0:12:58.000 a tiffany hat this party. It's done. Okay, now that 0:12:58.080 --> 0:13:01.400 part we could do that. We could do that. So Tiff, 0:13:01.840 --> 0:13:05.360 let's talk a little bit about you.

To be satisfied 0:13:12.200 --> 0:13:15.680 over here when it's with me. Um, I'm very busy. 0:13:15.840 --> 0:13:18.840 Are you dating? I would like to date? Um? I 0:13:18.920 --> 0:13:20.440 really don't have a lot of time for it. But 0:13:20.480 --> 0:13:22.600 when somebody asked me out on a date that I'm 0:13:22.679 --> 0:13:26.120 interested in, like hanging out with I will clear this sketch. 0:13:26.280 --> 0:13:29.680 I will make some time. So have you had any 0:13:29.760 --> 0:13:33.120 special requests? So you know what's in a d music video?

I was 0:13:45.480 --> 0:13:47.560 like that sounds good and he's like, okay, cool, cool, 0:13:47.559 --> 0:13:50.320 we'll wait, We'll make it work, right, So I blocked 0:13:50.600 --> 0:13:53.480 blocks all this time off, like, shoot, I gonna get 0:13:53.480 --> 0:13:55.960 my mustache rats, you know what I'm saying, get my 0:13:56.080 --> 0:14:00.160 arm pits. Ways, got me a nice little dress. Then like, 0:14:00.240 --> 0:14:02.360 so what tim are we hitting out? Are you sitting 0:14:02.360 --> 0:14:04.679 in a car? Like where are we going? And he's like, 0:14:04.760 --> 0:14:09.280 oh man, my bad family emergency. I'm in Canada right now. 0:14:09.600 --> 0:14:14.480 And I was like, I got okay, look a name 0:14:15.320 --> 0:14:17.400 a thousand dollars a day. And I was trying to 0:14:17.440 --> 0:14:21.560 see what that deep do. But alright, I'm not gonna 0:14:21.600 --> 0:14:25.080 do that. Wait a minute, speaking of that, No, speaking 0:14:25.200 --> 0:14:32.200 of that, Okay, I remember when we were on Girl's Ships, Say, 0:14:32.240 --> 0:14:35.240 and you were telling me about your special books. Oh 0:14:35.280 --> 0:14:40.280 my big big, I was doing research. So basically because 0:14:40.320 --> 0:14:44.200 I'm a scientist a very special nature, I'm a peneotologist. 0:14:44.520 --> 0:14:47.920 I'm a peneotologist. When I was younger, any time I 0:14:47.920 --> 0:14:50.080 would go on a date, I would ask a guy 0:14:50.320 --> 0:14:53.360 if I could see his penis, and then I would 0:14:53.360 --> 0:14:55.600 put out my disposable camera and I'll ask him, can 0:14:55.640 --> 0:14:57.320 I take a picture of your penis? I'm like, I 0:14:57.320 --> 0:14:58.840 don't want your face or anything. I just want to 0:14:58.880 --> 0:15:02.440 remember your openis and they'd be holding it in the hand. 0:15:02.520 --> 0:15:06.120 And then from the hands you can see like dirty nails, 0:15:06.120 --> 0:15:08.480 dirty Dick, and you can see like if the tip 0:15:08.520 --> 0:15:11.320 of the penis usually match their fingernails. It was a 0:15:11.440 --> 0:15:14.840 nice little coffee table conversation situation. No, I have to 0:15:14.880 --> 0:15:17.640 tell you that was some of the most fascinating conversations 0:15:17.680 --> 0:15:19.560 that you would not had. And what you said was 0:15:19.600 --> 0:15:21.840 the feat. No, it's not about the feet, and ain't 0:15:21.840 --> 0:15:25.680 about the feet. It's never about the feet. Check them hands, 0:15:26.520 --> 0:15:31.200 check them hands. His hands always dry and ashy. Dick 0:15:31.280 --> 0:15:35.840 probably asked, oh my god, okay, John, because we have 0:15:35.960 --> 0:15:41.760 the fish bowl, Well, thank you, welcome. This is our 0:15:41.840 --> 0:15:46.680 little special bowl where we have questions. Yeah, these are 0:15:46.720 --> 0:15:49.800 from our red table talk Facebook family right here. Okay, 0:15:49.960 --> 0:15:56.320 so one, al right, is there going to be a 0:15:56.360 --> 0:15:59.720 girl's trip to Oh my gosh, I hope so I do. 0:16:00.320 --> 0:16:03.600 Did they call you well talking about it? Well, you 0:16:03.640 --> 0:16:06.320 know they did in the beginning. I haven't heard anything lately. 0:16:06.440 --> 0:16:08.880 I haven't either. Yeah, I like two months ago, I 0:16:08.880 --> 0:16:11.320 got a cast in. Um, yeah, there is concerned about 0:16:11.320 --> 0:16:15.240 how much it's gonna cost that that and that that 0:16:15.240 --> 0:16:18.120 that has been my answer to everyone. You know, there's 0:16:18.160 --> 0:16:22.120 four of us and we all going in together, and 0:16:22.480 --> 0:16:25.600 we're sticking again, sticking together. I'm not gonna ask you 0:16:25.640 --> 0:16:28.960 this one why because it's where did you get the 0:16:29.040 --> 0:16:33.000 name black unicorn? And okay, yeah, that's for me having 0:16:33.040 --> 0:16:35.800 a word on my forehead. What When I was in 0:16:35.920 --> 0:16:39.240 elementary school, I had to work on my forehead. Now, 0:16:39.280 --> 0:16:41.160 I thought it was a mall right, but it would 0:16:41.160 --> 0:16:43.400 grow out like it would like be like a flower 0:16:43.520 --> 0:16:46.400 and then like kind of spiral around itself. Kids used 0:16:46.400 --> 0:16:48.120 to be like, you are dirty ass unicorn. You're a 0:16:48.160 --> 0:16:50.560 dirty ass unicorn and so, and it would make fun 0:16:50.560 --> 0:16:52.280 of me, like Tiffany got flies all on their face 0:16:52.280 --> 0:16:54.600 because I had a mall right here, I had. I 0:16:54.680 --> 0:16:56.240 have a mole on my nose. I had all this 0:16:56.320 --> 0:16:58.400 molle right here under my eye was much smaller than 0:16:58.760 --> 0:17:00.840 and then I had this thing grow on out my forehead. 0:17:00.960 --> 0:17:03.480 And I remember this one boy, his name was James. 0:17:03.560 --> 0:17:05.520 He used to make me so mad. And I was 0:17:05.560 --> 0:17:07.879 sitting in class one day and I just took some 0:17:07.920 --> 0:17:11.080 scissors and I just cut it and I just let 0:17:11.080 --> 0:17:14.520 it bleed there my face like like a weirdo. But 0:17:14.960 --> 0:17:17.119 everybody was like, oh my god, Tiffany's bleeding. It was 0:17:17.280 --> 0:17:19.840 they all cared about me. Everybody took care of me. 0:17:20.119 --> 0:17:22.040 And then he was like, I'm sorry, why did you 0:17:22.040 --> 0:17:24.440 cut your horn off? Like you shouldn't cut your horn 0:17:24.520 --> 0:17:26.280 you might bleed to death. And I was like, if 0:17:26.320 --> 0:17:29.320 I die, it's on your fault. It was so nice 0:17:29.320 --> 0:17:41.440 to me after day dag. Oh my gosh, Oh Tiffany, 0:17:41.600 --> 0:17:44.760 you were harassed coming up through the comedy clubs. What's 0:17:44.800 --> 0:17:46.919 the worst story from those days? And do you have 0:17:47.000 --> 0:17:50.720 advice for female comics. Oh? Yeah, definitely a lot of 0:17:50.720 --> 0:17:56.280 sexual harassment comedy because comedians are perfect always handled it 0:17:56.320 --> 0:17:59.080 well though, Like I always like turned it around on them. 0:17:59.119 --> 0:18:01.040 You know what a man can't handle is an aggressive 0:18:01.080 --> 0:18:04.080 woman that that scares the out of them. And I 0:18:04.160 --> 0:18:06.119 figured that out early. At first. They would be like 0:18:06.119 --> 0:18:08.159 pushing up on me, like if you want five minutes 0:18:08.840 --> 0:18:11.080 a stage time, you're gonna have to give me five minutes, 0:18:11.800 --> 0:18:13.600 Like what you're gonna do for? And I'm like, I'm 0:18:13.640 --> 0:18:15.560 not giving up my body for no damn stag. It's 0:18:15.600 --> 0:18:17.480 not like you're gonna make money off of me and 0:18:17.480 --> 0:18:21.440 I'm gonna give up. They're being aggressive. They're basically testing that, 0:18:21.600 --> 0:18:24.440 testing their their boundaries with you. So I would suggest 0:18:24.480 --> 0:18:28.119 to women like when guys, when guys do that, I 0:18:28.160 --> 0:18:31.280 would like return the favor. I would get aggressive right back. 0:18:31.359 --> 0:18:33.760 If they're like, damn, baby, you're fine, I'm like, oh 0:18:33.920 --> 0:18:37.960 you fine, look at you. Wait, there's something wrong with 0:18:38.000 --> 0:18:40.200 this lady. She must got something. That's how I get down. 0:18:40.280 --> 0:18:42.440 They try to snatch your light. Man. Yeah, you can't 0:18:42.520 --> 0:18:44.800 let them have your life. No, that's real talk loved 0:18:44.800 --> 0:18:47.880 you guys and girls Trip describe your co stars with 0:18:48.040 --> 0:18:55.320 one sentence. Regina um, pretty smart, cool. Huh that's actually 0:18:55.359 --> 0:18:57.280 three words, but I guess that could be as sensive. 0:18:57.600 --> 0:19:03.680 She is pretty smart, Yeah, queen, she's just she's just 0:19:03.720 --> 0:19:08.199 a super gentle heart, just a super gentle heart.

I think you can be tough, You've 0:19:21.400 --> 0:19:24.920 had to be tough, but really you're you're a tender 0:19:25.040 --> 0:19:32.679 only just deb I'm gonna describe you. Jada is a queen, 0:19:33.359 --> 0:19:39.400 knowledgeable and my big sister. I want you to meet 0:19:39.440 --> 0:19:46.920 my mother, Okay, dam Hey, hi, looking good.

Actually, you know, like this 0:20:00.800 --> 0:20:04.320 whole thing is new for me, okay, and I already 0:20:04.440 --> 0:20:08.600 get a bit of attention just from being Jada's mom. 0:20:08.960 --> 0:20:12.679 You know, people assume that you want all the fame 0:20:12.880 --> 0:20:15.400 and so you're gonna go for it all. Well, let 0:20:15.400 --> 0:20:17.199 me give you the back story on that, because I 0:20:17.280 --> 0:20:20.199 was telling gam me, you want your art, but you 0:20:20.280 --> 0:20:22.520 might not want all the attention and all the stuff 0:20:22.560 --> 0:20:25.000 that comes it comes with it. So how are you 0:20:25.040 --> 0:20:27.360 dealing with that? I'm gonna be honest with you. I 0:20:27.400 --> 0:20:32.240 like it.

I feel like that's my job. Now, 0:20:39.760 --> 0:20:42.399 I got a question for you. How bad was Jada? 0:20:42.480 --> 0:20:44.119 Did you have to give her a lot of spine 0:20:44.280 --> 0:20:47.919 ins or did you like give her time out?

Well, she 0:21:05.640 --> 0:21:07.520 was like that's enough of that. We're not gonna talk 0:21:07.520 --> 0:21:13.320 about it. And I was like, like, Mommy has spoken, 0:21:13.800 --> 0:21:16.160 because you know, it just stays with you forever. It's 0:21:16.240 --> 0:21:18.960 just ingrained in you. It really depends on what the 0:21:19.000 --> 0:21:22.159 circumstances are, depends on what's going on, what kind of 0:21:22.200 --> 0:21:24.879 look you actually gonna get.
