<v Speaker 1>Exactly a Madam here with you guys, I started with

0:00:34.320 --> 0:00:38.120
<v Speaker 1>my co host Stevie Nonez. Eventually, you know, he got

0:00:38.159 --> 0:00:40.680
<v Speaker 1>real busy. He started doing his own thing, and I've

0:00:40.720 --> 0:00:43.800
<v Speaker 1>been doing my own thing better. I won't lie. I

0:00:43.880 --> 0:00:46.720

0:00:46.960 --> 0:00:49.760

0:01:14.200 --> 0:01:16.400
<v Speaker 1>to show me love and support me in my baby shower.

0:01:16.760 --> 0:01:23.760
<v Speaker 1>But I'm let me tell you something, Jono savvy kid,

0:01:23.840 --> 0:01:26.360
<v Speaker 1>and baby shower was so much work. I did a

0:01:26.360 --> 0:01:31.399
<v Speaker 1>beautiful um baby shower. Shout outs to Onyx, the banquet hall.

0:01:31.560 --> 0:01:37.440
<v Speaker 1>It was amazing. It was beautiful. Shoutouts Mia, Epic Events.

0:01:37.720 --> 0:01:40.960
<v Speaker 1>Epic Events in Miami made sure that my gender review

0:01:41.080 --> 0:01:44.080
<v Speaker 1>was amazing, make sure that my baby shower was amazing.

0:01:44.520 --> 0:01:47.480
<v Speaker 1>I am just so grateful for them. Um, I will

0:01:48.320 --> 0:01:51.200
<v Speaker 1>check the coach, I mean, everybody that came together to

0:01:51.200 --> 0:01:55.240
<v Speaker 1>make it happen. But it was so much work. God,

0:01:55.640 --> 0:01:59.160
<v Speaker 1>can we talk about that cake? Ow good? I At

0:01:59.280 --> 0:02:02.640
<v Speaker 1>first of all, they sat me down with her, the

0:02:02.680 --> 0:02:05.800
<v Speaker 1>one that did your kids. She is incredible. And on

0:02:05.880 --> 0:02:10.000
<v Speaker 1>top of that, it was a Dominican cake. You can't

0:02:10.000 --> 0:02:17.000
<v Speaker 1>have a party without Dominican cake. It's moist, is like,

0:02:18.840 --> 0:02:22.720
<v Speaker 1>I'm sorry, Dominican is fired it and the cake tastes

0:02:22.800 --> 0:02:25.640
<v Speaker 1>a basic and listen, I'm not a cake fan, but

0:02:25.800 --> 0:02:32.720
<v Speaker 1>her cake was good. I mean everything cake. The food

0:02:32.919 --> 0:02:37.480
<v Speaker 1>was good. The setup was very royal, very goddess, very queen,

0:02:37.639 --> 0:02:43.880
<v Speaker 1>very sea him first, very being was like over the

0:02:44.000 --> 0:02:45.799
<v Speaker 1>top because people are like, oh my god, this is

0:02:45.840 --> 0:02:47.919
<v Speaker 1>the first baby shower that I go to. That it's like,

0:02:48.400 --> 0:02:50.840
<v Speaker 1>you know, so extra. Usually people don't do it like that,

0:02:50.960 --> 0:02:55.919
<v Speaker 1>they do something more simple. Let's talk about I had Loca,

0:02:55.960 --> 0:03:00.840
<v Speaker 1>I had dancers, I had a robot, I had machines.

0:03:01.240 --> 0:03:03.200
<v Speaker 1>We were dancing boom that. I mean, it was just

0:03:03.400 --> 0:03:06.040
<v Speaker 1>really really dope. The DJ was cool. I mean it

0:03:06.160 --> 0:03:08.079
<v Speaker 1>was just such a vibe. Like if you haven't seen it,

0:03:08.480 --> 0:03:13.600
<v Speaker 1>go check it out on my Instagram at Allen on

0:03:13.639 --> 0:03:16.400
<v Speaker 1>the highlights it says baby shower and there you can

0:03:16.440 --> 0:03:20.519
<v Speaker 1>see my dress. Valentino mar did a beautiful, a beautiful gold,

0:03:20.880 --> 0:03:25.079
<v Speaker 1>very royal regal uh dress for me that I really

0:03:25.160 --> 0:03:31.040
<v Speaker 1>loved my hairstyle. It was like a whole concept. Yeah, no, no, no,

0:03:31.200 --> 0:03:34.880
<v Speaker 1>I love the aura. Now that I've already expressed all

0:03:34.920 --> 0:03:37.480
<v Speaker 1>the great things and how wonderful and everything it was,

0:03:40.960 --> 0:03:42.960
<v Speaker 1>I thought it was great, But there was you have

0:03:43.120 --> 0:03:44.920
<v Speaker 1>some guests there. Can we talk about some guests you

0:03:45.000 --> 0:03:48.560
<v Speaker 1>have there? So if you didn't know already, she had

0:03:48.920 --> 0:03:55.320
<v Speaker 1>um Jackie, which is yes, she's amazing. I had Bratt Branner,

0:03:55.400 --> 0:03:58.080
<v Speaker 1>to which I love very much. He came to show

0:03:58.120 --> 0:04:01.360
<v Speaker 1>me some love and support. That's my friend boring. And

0:04:01.440 --> 0:04:06.160
<v Speaker 1>then you have I had Bobby Lights, I had Prince's love. Okay,

0:04:06.280 --> 0:04:09.600
<v Speaker 1>later on you guys will we'll see because she also

0:04:09.760 --> 0:04:12.360
<v Speaker 1>is going through some situations that you guys will have

0:04:12.400 --> 0:04:15.040
<v Speaker 1>an opportunity to find out on Loving Hip Hop this season.

0:04:15.800 --> 0:04:17.440
<v Speaker 1>But I think she kind of somewhat made it public

0:04:17.520 --> 0:04:20.160
<v Speaker 1>the fact that she is no longer with the father

0:04:20.240 --> 0:04:23.800
<v Speaker 1>of her children, her husband. To my understanding, ray J

0:04:24.480 --> 0:04:27.240
<v Speaker 1>and Um, the baby shower was something that really touched her.

0:04:28.680 --> 0:04:31.040
<v Speaker 1>Who memento like heart to heart moment. But we'll all

0:04:31.080 --> 0:04:33.400
<v Speaker 1>talk about it in a little bit. Neary was there

0:04:33.480 --> 0:04:44.240
<v Speaker 1>as well. There are a lot of people. That's why

0:04:44.279 --> 0:04:48.320
<v Speaker 1>you got it from because and the dance floor Richard

0:04:48.320 --> 0:04:52.960
<v Speaker 1>Photography and gifted me an amazing picture of maternity picture

0:04:53.000 --> 0:04:55.320
<v Speaker 1>that I did all those things. Bet that the truth

0:04:55.360 --> 0:04:58.240
<v Speaker 1>of the matter is I had a beautiful baby shower.

0:04:58.360 --> 0:05:02.160
<v Speaker 1>It was really, really nice. I truly appreciated being able

0:05:02.200 --> 0:05:04.200
<v Speaker 1>to have done this for my girls, being able to

0:05:04.279 --> 0:05:07.000
<v Speaker 1>have this memory because to be honest, it was more

0:05:07.080 --> 0:05:11.039
<v Speaker 1>about the memory and about the celebration than anything else.

0:05:11.320 --> 0:05:13.240
<v Speaker 1>And I'll tell you this, Um something I want to

0:05:13.279 --> 0:05:16.640
<v Speaker 1>clear up to some of the clips that I posted

0:05:16.720 --> 0:05:19.200
<v Speaker 1>on Instagram about the behind the scenes, and I'm going

0:05:19.240 --> 0:05:21.360
<v Speaker 1>to get into the juicy part now. A lot of

0:05:21.440 --> 0:05:24.080
<v Speaker 1>them were talking ship like, oh, I might as so

0:05:24.400 --> 0:05:28.120
<v Speaker 1>rude and she's so disrespectful. Look how she was talking

0:05:28.600 --> 0:05:31.080
<v Speaker 1>and a lot and I'm like, first of all, only

0:05:31.160 --> 0:05:34.880
<v Speaker 1>if people knew, because people love to talk without really

0:05:34.920 --> 0:05:38.279
<v Speaker 1>knowing what was going on. One I had like eight

0:05:38.400 --> 0:05:41.360
<v Speaker 1>cameras in my face. There's a whole bunch of production there.

0:05:42.000 --> 0:05:44.760
<v Speaker 1>You know, we're already late. My guests has been sitting

0:05:44.800 --> 0:05:47.320
<v Speaker 1>there for a long time. I won't get into details,

0:05:47.360 --> 0:05:50.120
<v Speaker 1>but they wouldn't let my guests come in because everybody

0:05:50.160 --> 0:05:52.960
<v Speaker 1>that came into the event had to have prove of

0:05:53.200 --> 0:05:56.520
<v Speaker 1>COVID COVID tests and they didn't have a prop of

0:05:56.600 --> 0:05:58.800
<v Speaker 1>COVID test. They literally had to leave. So there were

0:05:58.800 --> 0:06:02.400
<v Speaker 1>a lot of people that when home, shower change after

0:06:02.640 --> 0:06:05.560
<v Speaker 1>after work, or or got a babysit or whatever, got

0:06:05.640 --> 0:06:08.760
<v Speaker 1>their white outfit. All this stuff got there and then

0:06:08.800 --> 0:06:10.560
<v Speaker 1>they were like, oh, you can't get inside because of

0:06:10.600 --> 0:06:13.679
<v Speaker 1>the COVID test. So it was just so much happening,

0:06:13.800 --> 0:06:17.200
<v Speaker 1>And then I felt like when them let's figure out

0:06:17.240 --> 0:06:19.719
<v Speaker 1>a way where the people that have been COVID tested

0:06:19.760 --> 0:06:23.200
<v Speaker 1>sit in the front. I understand safety. We're in a

0:06:23.279 --> 0:06:25.800
<v Speaker 1>new world right now where we have to protect ourselves,

0:06:25.839 --> 0:06:28.000
<v Speaker 1>where COVID is serious. And on top of that, you

0:06:28.080 --> 0:06:29.839
<v Speaker 1>know you're going to a baby shower with a woman

0:06:29.880 --> 0:06:31.919
<v Speaker 1>that's pregnant with twins. You don't want to feel responsible

0:06:31.960 --> 0:06:34.559
<v Speaker 1>if you pass on COVID to her or to her guests.

0:06:34.640 --> 0:06:37.400
<v Speaker 1>I totally get that part, but I was already piste off.

0:06:38.400 --> 0:06:40.960
<v Speaker 1>And then when you're doing these type of events, all

0:06:41.040 --> 0:06:44.200
<v Speaker 1>the pressure is on you. Everybody wants to Everybody wants

0:06:44.240 --> 0:06:47.360
<v Speaker 1>to talk to you, everybody wants to hug you, everybody

0:06:47.400 --> 0:06:50.400
<v Speaker 1>wants to rub your stomach. Time out. Now that I

0:06:50.520 --> 0:06:55.520
<v Speaker 1>say that etiquette, stop rubbing pregnant women's stomach, What is

0:06:55.600 --> 0:06:58.960
<v Speaker 1>wrong with you? Like they're not Buddhist. I get that you.

0:06:59.200 --> 0:07:01.160
<v Speaker 1>I get that you're like, oh my god, the baby's cute.

0:07:01.200 --> 0:07:03.839
<v Speaker 1>I get that part. I don't know about other cultures.

0:07:05.760 --> 0:07:08.240
<v Speaker 1>We're like we we we have these thoughts of like

0:07:08.400 --> 0:07:13.440
<v Speaker 1>you know, Lambidia sale lie in it. He are the

0:07:13.640 --> 0:07:17.880
<v Speaker 1>energies or whatever salac you come with all your bad

0:07:17.960 --> 0:07:20.120
<v Speaker 1>jujor your bad energy, and you're stress in your life,

0:07:20.360 --> 0:07:21.920
<v Speaker 1>and then you come and rub it all a bit

0:07:22.000 --> 0:07:24.040
<v Speaker 1>my stomach. And then I don't want to be rude

0:07:24.080 --> 0:07:26.600
<v Speaker 1>and be like, yo, can you back off? I don't

0:07:26.640 --> 0:07:28.600
<v Speaker 1>mind standing next to you. I don't mind taking a picture.

0:07:28.600 --> 0:07:31.880
<v Speaker 1>I don't mind you seeing something nice, but you know,

0:07:32.920 --> 0:07:35.960
<v Speaker 1>can you please stop? They get offended. They get offended,

0:07:35.960 --> 0:07:38.760
<v Speaker 1>You're supposed to just sit there and let them rub

0:07:38.880 --> 0:07:41.480
<v Speaker 1>all upon you, Like, dude, I don't want to be

0:07:41.600 --> 0:07:44.000
<v Speaker 1>rubbed on. First of all, I'm already hormonal, already have

0:07:44.080 --> 0:07:47.720
<v Speaker 1>an attitude. I'm piste off. My uterus hurts, I gotta

0:07:47.760 --> 0:07:50.560
<v Speaker 1>pee every three minutes. I'm hungry, and I want to

0:07:50.560 --> 0:07:53.280
<v Speaker 1>go to sleep and then I and then I gotta

0:07:53.360 --> 0:07:57.520
<v Speaker 1>let everybody come and get me. Anyways, So there were

0:07:57.600 --> 0:08:00.240
<v Speaker 1>just so much going on that day. I get there

0:08:00.280 --> 0:08:03.000
<v Speaker 1>to the event, Like I said, I was already late.

0:08:03.400 --> 0:08:05.880
<v Speaker 1>They wouldn't let my guests come inside. That's why I

0:08:06.000 --> 0:08:08.720
<v Speaker 1>was already screaming, because I had people that literally took

0:08:08.760 --> 0:08:11.600
<v Speaker 1>a whole light to make it to my baby shower

0:08:11.920 --> 0:08:14.040
<v Speaker 1>because it was like a really important moment for me.

0:08:14.200 --> 0:08:16.640
<v Speaker 1>And then they're calling me, I'm out of we can't

0:08:16.640 --> 0:08:20.080
<v Speaker 1>get inside. You know, bla Blas production won't let us

0:08:20.120 --> 0:08:22.920
<v Speaker 1>get in it all. And I understood, because you know,

0:08:23.120 --> 0:08:25.560
<v Speaker 1>they have a certain protocol that they have to follow.

0:08:28.760 --> 0:08:31.040
<v Speaker 1>I was already so piste off. I didn't even care.

0:08:31.120 --> 0:08:33.840
<v Speaker 1>I was just like, I invested so much money into

0:08:33.920 --> 0:08:37.280
<v Speaker 1>making this event. For those that saw some of the clips,

0:08:37.720 --> 0:08:40.760
<v Speaker 1>and we're, you know, judging me without really knowing the story,

0:08:40.880 --> 0:08:50.079
<v Speaker 1>there goes some of it. It was true though, because

0:08:50.240 --> 0:08:54.640
<v Speaker 1>I was there, they were they were so like, we

0:08:54.760 --> 0:08:56.760
<v Speaker 1>were so hungry, and they were like, we had to

0:08:56.840 --> 0:08:58.520
<v Speaker 1>wait for you, And I understood, we did have to

0:08:58.600 --> 0:09:01.199
<v Speaker 1>wait for you, but we were just so hungry. We

0:09:01.320 --> 0:09:03.480
<v Speaker 1>were starving. And you came out and you said fix that.

0:09:03.600 --> 0:09:05.439
<v Speaker 1>So what I loved about you do that, even though

0:09:05.480 --> 0:09:09.199
<v Speaker 1>you were filming, you were very attentive to us. You

0:09:09.280 --> 0:09:13.079
<v Speaker 1>were like that that they're eating, make sure that they're entertaining.

0:09:13.160 --> 0:09:15.199
<v Speaker 1>And that's what That's what happens when you're the one

0:09:15.360 --> 0:09:17.880
<v Speaker 1>when you're the one hosting events. It's like when you

0:09:17.960 --> 0:09:19.679
<v Speaker 1>have a wedding, when you have any of those things.

0:09:19.720 --> 0:09:22.000
<v Speaker 1>When you're the one hosting the events, you have to

0:09:22.080 --> 0:09:24.319
<v Speaker 1>be the one giving all the attention to everything. And

0:09:24.480 --> 0:09:26.600
<v Speaker 1>in away or another. It's a beautiful thing, but then

0:09:26.640 --> 0:09:28.680
<v Speaker 1>you don't get to enjoy your own event as much

0:09:28.880 --> 0:09:30.960
<v Speaker 1>because you're making sure that all your guests are comfortable

0:09:31.000 --> 0:09:35.080
<v Speaker 1>to get their drinks or this or that. And by

0:09:35.120 --> 0:09:37.319
<v Speaker 1>the end of the night they're like, did you enjoy it?

0:09:37.600 --> 0:09:39.920
<v Speaker 1>I did, But I would have enjoyed it more if

0:09:40.040 --> 0:09:42.360
<v Speaker 1>I hadn't had to be in like the one on

0:09:42.440 --> 0:09:44.360
<v Speaker 1>top of everything, because even if you don't have to,

0:09:44.880 --> 0:09:48.400
<v Speaker 1>people still want your attention. If they're going to your event,

0:09:48.800 --> 0:09:51.440
<v Speaker 1>they want to know that you're catering to them somehow,

0:09:51.880 --> 0:09:54.120
<v Speaker 1>that you're paying attention to them, that you acknowledge the

0:09:54.160 --> 0:09:55.880
<v Speaker 1>fact that they're there, which is cool. I get that

0:09:56.000 --> 0:09:59.000
<v Speaker 1>part better. Some people can be very annoying. Some people

0:09:59.080 --> 0:10:00.800
<v Speaker 1>don't know how to be like, well, I'm not at

0:10:00.920 --> 0:10:03.120
<v Speaker 1>because he was okay, cool, boom, I'm gonna go about

0:10:03.160 --> 0:10:06.240
<v Speaker 1>my way etiquette. Guys, let's let's work on that. And

0:10:06.280 --> 0:10:09.120
<v Speaker 1>I'm not saying it because of me. Like me, there's

0:10:09.160 --> 0:10:11.599
<v Speaker 1>a thousand people that if you have the opportunity of

0:10:11.679 --> 0:10:16.000
<v Speaker 1>meeting you know, your biggest celebrity crushed or whatever. Just

0:10:16.200 --> 0:10:19.520
<v Speaker 1>be mindful, be respectful, be you know, be cool about it.

0:10:19.679 --> 0:10:23.240
<v Speaker 1>Don't like super old. You know, it was just a

0:10:23.360 --> 0:10:25.800
<v Speaker 1>lot going on, but I just wanted to give you,

0:10:26.160 --> 0:10:28.880
<v Speaker 1>you know, both sides of the story, like both aspects.

0:10:29.000 --> 0:10:31.400
<v Speaker 1>So that's the kind of like the bad that happened.

0:10:31.960 --> 0:10:36.160
<v Speaker 1>My father didn't come. I was hoping that he would

0:10:36.200 --> 0:10:38.320
<v Speaker 1>be there because it was one of the most important

0:10:38.400 --> 0:10:41.760
<v Speaker 1>days obviously of my life, right but he left to

0:10:41.880 --> 0:10:44.040
<v Speaker 1>d R because he has a little skank over there,

0:10:44.120 --> 0:10:46.960
<v Speaker 1>so he was busy. But um, but with that being said,

0:10:47.000 --> 0:10:50.400
<v Speaker 1>it's okay though. It's okay though, because you know, that's

0:10:50.440 --> 0:10:54.760
<v Speaker 1>part of life. Um, My baby's father didn't show up.

0:10:54.880 --> 0:10:57.920
<v Speaker 1>Either I was hoping that he would be there or

0:10:58.120 --> 0:11:00.280
<v Speaker 1>just you know, I was hoping he would just show

0:11:00.400 --> 0:11:03.520
<v Speaker 1>up to surprise me, like surprise. You know. I came

0:11:03.600 --> 0:11:08.080
<v Speaker 1>here to celebrate, at least for the girls, and there

0:11:08.160 --> 0:11:09.959
<v Speaker 1>was a part of me that kept hoping that he

0:11:10.000 --> 0:11:13.679
<v Speaker 1>would show up. But he didn't show up either. You know,

0:11:14.080 --> 0:11:18.240
<v Speaker 1>that really hurt my feelings and one of one of

0:11:18.320 --> 0:11:21.640
<v Speaker 1>the most special moments for me in this baby shower.

0:11:22.040 --> 0:11:25.000
<v Speaker 1>You know, when I came out, they opened the curtains

0:11:25.000 --> 0:11:27.079
<v Speaker 1>and I went down the stairs and I was on

0:11:27.480 --> 0:11:29.840
<v Speaker 1>stage and everybody saw me and everybody was clapping because

0:11:29.960 --> 0:11:32.920
<v Speaker 1>you know, oh, the excitement looked pretty whatever. When I

0:11:33.000 --> 0:11:34.199
<v Speaker 1>went down and they gave me the mic and I

0:11:34.280 --> 0:11:38.840
<v Speaker 1>had the opportunity of talking, I gave a little speech

0:11:38.880 --> 0:11:42.040
<v Speaker 1>about how grateful I was that all my friends and

0:11:42.160 --> 0:11:44.440
<v Speaker 1>family came to support me, or at least the ones

0:11:44.520 --> 0:11:46.679
<v Speaker 1>that were there, because I was like, you guys didn't

0:11:46.679 --> 0:11:48.120
<v Speaker 1>have to be there. You guys didn't have to take

0:11:48.160 --> 0:11:49.880
<v Speaker 1>a flight. You guys didn't have to drive there. You

0:11:49.920 --> 0:11:52.800
<v Speaker 1>guys didn't have to come after work, you know, after

0:11:52.840 --> 0:11:56.160
<v Speaker 1>a long day of work to you know, come celebrate

0:11:56.240 --> 0:11:59.240
<v Speaker 1>with me. Um my girls, like, you guys didn't have

0:11:59.360 --> 0:12:03.400
<v Speaker 1>to do that. And and it was a very vulnerable

0:12:03.480 --> 0:12:06.120
<v Speaker 1>moment for me that I was open to my friends

0:12:06.320 --> 0:12:09.520
<v Speaker 1>and family and co workers because a lot of like,

0:12:09.600 --> 0:12:11.280
<v Speaker 1>I'm very private, and a lot of people don't know

0:12:11.360 --> 0:12:14.040
<v Speaker 1>about my personal life besides, but I obviously allowed them

0:12:14.120 --> 0:12:18.640
<v Speaker 1>to know. And I cried because I was like, I

0:12:18.800 --> 0:12:20.760
<v Speaker 1>never thought that I would be standing on the stage

0:12:20.800 --> 0:12:24.280
<v Speaker 1>by myself, you know, in my mind I had dreams

0:12:24.280 --> 0:12:27.559
<v Speaker 1>of how this moment was going to be. But I

0:12:27.760 --> 0:12:29.559
<v Speaker 1>was just so grateful to look to my right and

0:12:29.640 --> 0:12:32.160
<v Speaker 1>my left and see so many people that were there, like,

0:12:32.480 --> 0:12:34.920
<v Speaker 1>because sometimes we focus so much on the negative, and

0:12:35.000 --> 0:12:37.320
<v Speaker 1>it's like, but if you just stop and really taking

0:12:37.440 --> 0:12:40.640
<v Speaker 1>what's currently happening, Look how many people came in to

0:12:40.720 --> 0:12:43.240
<v Speaker 1>show you love. Look how many people did come here

0:12:43.320 --> 0:12:46.400
<v Speaker 1>to appreciate the fact that you know that you're here,

0:12:46.480 --> 0:12:49.559
<v Speaker 1>and you're girls, and just everything overall. So I was

0:12:49.720 --> 0:12:52.559
<v Speaker 1>grateful for that. Later on, you know, I tried to

0:12:52.640 --> 0:12:55.360
<v Speaker 1>disconnect my mind from the negativity of the stress of

0:12:55.840 --> 0:12:59.360
<v Speaker 1>you know, filming and production and and just all the

0:13:00.040 --> 0:13:02.920
<v Speaker 1>cups that had happened in the event and just enjoy

0:13:03.080 --> 0:13:05.360
<v Speaker 1>that night, you know, by lad and you and I.

0:13:05.480 --> 0:13:08.439
<v Speaker 1>We danced, My mom and I we danced. You know,

0:13:08.559 --> 0:13:11.520
<v Speaker 1>I danced with as many people as possible. I tried

0:13:11.600 --> 0:13:14.880
<v Speaker 1>to laugh as much as possible. I I just tried

0:13:14.960 --> 0:13:18.719
<v Speaker 1>to take in the positive, because normal, you know, the

0:13:18.840 --> 0:13:21.520
<v Speaker 1>negative will always be there. It's a moment that was

0:13:21.600 --> 0:13:23.960
<v Speaker 1>just so mad because there was just so many things happening.

0:13:24.320 --> 0:13:28.200
<v Speaker 1>I was emotionally not there because I felt like, oh,

0:13:28.320 --> 0:13:31.240
<v Speaker 1>my baby Daddy didn't come, my dad's not here. This

0:13:31.400 --> 0:13:35.920
<v Speaker 1>is pissing me off. I'm already hormonal. I k everything

0:13:36.000 --> 0:13:39.080
<v Speaker 1>my time, like everything is just bad. But then It's

0:13:39.120 --> 0:13:42.559
<v Speaker 1>like there was a switch in my mind where I

0:13:42.679 --> 0:13:45.040
<v Speaker 1>was like, you know what, it's really not as bad

0:13:45.080 --> 0:13:46.959
<v Speaker 1>as it seems. You know, things could have been so

0:13:47.080 --> 0:13:49.440
<v Speaker 1>much worse. And I was just happy and I really

0:13:49.559 --> 0:13:53.439
<v Speaker 1>enjoyed my baby shower. And you can see that you

0:13:53.640 --> 0:13:56.640
<v Speaker 1>enjoyed it. What I love the most was that, man,

0:13:56.960 --> 0:13:59.640
<v Speaker 1>when you got on that mic, you hosted it, and

0:14:00.120 --> 0:14:02.520
<v Speaker 1>you're such a great host. We had such a great

0:14:04.559 --> 0:14:09.080
<v Speaker 1>oh full control of the baby shower, Like I had

0:14:09.400 --> 0:14:12.520
<v Speaker 1>so much fun. But like, man, if you were there

0:14:12.600 --> 0:14:14.920
<v Speaker 1>to see it, like she grabbed the mike, let me

0:14:14.960 --> 0:14:19.080
<v Speaker 1>give you guys a little vision. He said, where the

0:14:19.240 --> 0:14:22.160
<v Speaker 1>party at. It's time to party, And it was like

0:14:22.520 --> 0:14:25.280
<v Speaker 1>that moment, Oh my god. From then on it was

0:14:25.360 --> 0:14:28.680
<v Speaker 1>the greatest baby shower I've ever been to. It was

0:14:28.840 --> 0:14:33.520
<v Speaker 1>so beautiful. I mean, and then use the purity of whites? Now,

0:14:33.880 --> 0:14:37.600
<v Speaker 1>why did you choose white? Is my question? I wanted

0:14:37.680 --> 0:14:40.480
<v Speaker 1>to do it like that. I felt the same way

0:14:40.520 --> 0:14:42.240
<v Speaker 1>like you just said. It was just the purity of

0:14:42.520 --> 0:14:45.240
<v Speaker 1>of having, you know, everybody come in and white and

0:14:45.320 --> 0:14:48.880
<v Speaker 1>it was clean and it was very angelic, almost angelic.

0:14:49.280 --> 0:14:53.120
<v Speaker 1>Is that the word? Yeah? Um, that's the energy that

0:14:53.200 --> 0:14:56.400
<v Speaker 1>I wanted. I just wanted to be a pure, clean space.

0:14:56.800 --> 0:14:58.920
<v Speaker 1>And then obviously you don't have to stand down, so

0:14:59.160 --> 0:15:02.840
<v Speaker 1>I came out in a go dress battle. It was

0:15:02.920 --> 0:15:05.080
<v Speaker 1>just very nice and I wanted to have a concept.

0:15:05.200 --> 0:15:08.200
<v Speaker 1>I also went, you know, o D for the Gender

0:15:08.280 --> 0:15:11.400
<v Speaker 1>Review party because then I had helicopters and I have fireworks,

0:15:11.840 --> 0:15:16.040
<v Speaker 1>and you know, I did the most. I brought the

0:15:16.080 --> 0:15:19.280
<v Speaker 1>whole zoo, like I did a whole production. Um. And

0:15:19.400 --> 0:15:22.040
<v Speaker 1>then now the other The other thing I'm thinking about

0:15:22.200 --> 0:15:25.720
<v Speaker 1>is that I told my mom meet him Gender Review

0:15:26.680 --> 0:15:31.920
<v Speaker 1>baby shower the first year and after that semim on.

0:15:32.080 --> 0:15:35.360
<v Speaker 1>After that, we're gonna get a from the supermarket, a

0:15:35.400 --> 0:15:38.720
<v Speaker 1>little candle and cut of the day until you're fifteen. No, no, no, no,

0:15:38.760 --> 0:15:39.920
<v Speaker 1>I can't be doing this all the time. What do

0:15:40.000 --> 0:15:42.880
<v Speaker 1>you think this is? No, you're right. It is a

0:15:42.960 --> 0:15:45.640
<v Speaker 1>huge production. And I feel about that because Stevie Jr.

0:15:46.080 --> 0:15:50.080
<v Speaker 1>I'm his second birthday is coming up March eleven, and

0:15:50.200 --> 0:15:52.160
<v Speaker 1>I'm like, oh my goodness, we're gonna do the second

0:15:52.200 --> 0:15:53.800
<v Speaker 1>and the third, and it's like you have to keep

0:15:53.880 --> 0:15:57.080
<v Speaker 1>doing better and better and better, and there's too much stress.

0:15:57.120 --> 0:15:58.720
<v Speaker 1>So I think I'm just gonna take them to Disney

0:15:58.800 --> 0:16:01.600
<v Speaker 1>World kind of a ache and call it a day.

0:16:01.720 --> 0:16:04.840
<v Speaker 1>That's the good thing about living in Florida. But I mean,

0:16:04.880 --> 0:16:06.680
<v Speaker 1>you can at least go to Disney World. But that's

0:16:06.680 --> 0:16:09.960
<v Speaker 1>another question. At two years old, do they still remember? No,

0:16:10.120 --> 0:16:13.280
<v Speaker 1>but at least they look at the pictures. Yeah, okay,

0:16:13.440 --> 0:16:16.120
<v Speaker 1>that's true. But I mean the old school way. I

0:16:16.200 --> 0:16:18.960
<v Speaker 1>don't know about y'all and which which state you may be,

0:16:19.120 --> 0:16:22.000
<v Speaker 1>but down here Miami, we used to have the Chucky Cheese.

0:16:22.600 --> 0:16:25.720
<v Speaker 1>Oh my god, remember Chucky Cheese? Yo me? And that

0:16:25.800 --> 0:16:27.920
<v Speaker 1>you go to the chuck E Cheese, you get a

0:16:27.960 --> 0:16:30.200
<v Speaker 1>little bit coach though. You get a little you know,

0:16:30.560 --> 0:16:33.880
<v Speaker 1>a pizza with all a little kindergarten friends and everybody's

0:16:33.920 --> 0:16:35.360
<v Speaker 1>having fun and they don't even know what's happening. You

0:16:35.360 --> 0:16:38.680
<v Speaker 1>are people a little ball that and it's perfect betto

0:16:38.800 --> 0:16:41.960
<v Speaker 1>these productions every year. I know, maybe it's the excitement

0:16:42.000 --> 0:16:44.920
<v Speaker 1>of the first time, you know, mom or whatever, because

0:16:45.040 --> 0:16:47.880
<v Speaker 1>usually I've seen this happen on social media, and I've

0:16:47.880 --> 0:16:50.480
<v Speaker 1>seen this happening real like when it's your first kid.

0:16:50.760 --> 0:16:54.920
<v Speaker 1>What you go over the top after you have your second, third, fourth, Yeah,

0:16:55.240 --> 0:16:58.160
<v Speaker 1>it's like look, and I definitely missed those days I

0:16:58.200 --> 0:17:01.560
<v Speaker 1>feel like things have gone is also because of social media.

0:17:01.960 --> 0:17:05.320
<v Speaker 1>Social media and the standards of how you know, you're

0:17:05.320 --> 0:17:08.280
<v Speaker 1>supposed to be extras hell and showcase everything, you know,

0:17:08.320 --> 0:17:11.240
<v Speaker 1>showcase everyone we were capable of doing, and you know,

0:17:11.800 --> 0:17:14.080
<v Speaker 1>all this other stuff. But to be honest, if I

0:17:14.080 --> 0:17:18.520
<v Speaker 1>would have had the opportunity of doing it again, if

0:17:18.560 --> 0:17:21.160
<v Speaker 1>there were anything I could have done differently, I think

0:17:21.320 --> 0:17:23.760
<v Speaker 1>that one. I think it would have been really cool.

0:17:24.560 --> 0:17:26.560
<v Speaker 1>I think it would have been really really cool, really

0:17:26.600 --> 0:17:29.359
<v Speaker 1>awesome if I would have been able to done like

0:17:29.520 --> 0:17:33.680
<v Speaker 1>a zoom invitation or zoom thing and then have all

0:17:34.040 --> 0:17:36.680
<v Speaker 1>my family and d R or friends that weren't able

0:17:36.720 --> 0:17:39.600
<v Speaker 1>to actually make it to watch it at least through

0:17:39.720 --> 0:17:41.480
<v Speaker 1>zoom and we could have all been come and get

0:17:41.520 --> 0:17:43.720
<v Speaker 1>connected on like a big jumble toron a big screen

0:17:43.840 --> 0:17:46.240
<v Speaker 1>or something. I think that would have been super would

0:17:46.240 --> 0:17:48.160
<v Speaker 1>have it would have been like the Wendy Williams show

0:17:48.240 --> 0:17:50.320
<v Speaker 1>when she has the audience there, they would all have

0:17:50.359 --> 0:17:52.040
<v Speaker 1>been there. That would have been my God about it.

0:17:52.160 --> 0:17:54.760
<v Speaker 1>That's great. Maybe someone's listening and they might you just

0:17:54.840 --> 0:17:57.560
<v Speaker 1>gave them a great idea. Yeah, I think that that

0:17:57.600 --> 0:18:00.520
<v Speaker 1>would have been a really cool moment um if anything,

0:18:00.640 --> 0:18:03.040
<v Speaker 1>I think I would have probably had more food because

0:18:03.080 --> 0:18:05.520
<v Speaker 1>I was definitely more you know, hungry for other things.

0:18:05.640 --> 0:18:09.440
<v Speaker 1>But maybe that was just me craving things. Um. I

0:18:09.640 --> 0:18:14.400
<v Speaker 1>think that I would had probably Um, I really wanted

0:18:14.440 --> 0:18:19.200
<v Speaker 1>to dance more and and but in my gender reveal,

0:18:19.359 --> 0:18:20.880
<v Speaker 1>I dropped it like it was hot and I went

0:18:20.960 --> 0:18:23.440
<v Speaker 1>down and though I couldn't do it like my like

0:18:24.240 --> 0:18:27.440
<v Speaker 1>it was just too much. I couldn't dance and enjoy

0:18:27.520 --> 0:18:29.160
<v Speaker 1>it as much as I wanted to, but I enjoyed

0:18:29.240 --> 0:18:32.920
<v Speaker 1>watching other people have fun. I think that I also would,

0:18:33.640 --> 0:18:35.680
<v Speaker 1>like I said, I don't really care too much of

0:18:35.720 --> 0:18:37.080
<v Speaker 1>my dad would have been there. Now, I wouldn't have

0:18:37.160 --> 0:18:39.160
<v Speaker 1>made a difference to me, but it would have made

0:18:39.160 --> 0:18:41.600
<v Speaker 1>a difference to me if the father and my girls

0:18:41.640 --> 0:18:43.520
<v Speaker 1>would have actually showed up. I think that that would

0:18:43.520 --> 0:18:46.000
<v Speaker 1>have been, you know, even even a more special moment,

0:18:46.560 --> 0:18:48.639
<v Speaker 1>so that later on when they look back into it,

0:18:48.760 --> 0:18:50.639
<v Speaker 1>they could be like, oh, you know, my dad was

0:18:50.720 --> 0:18:55.000
<v Speaker 1>there too, but hey, that's part of life. And uh,

0:18:55.640 --> 0:18:58.000
<v Speaker 1>I don't know. I think that everything came out pretty perfect.

0:18:58.080 --> 0:19:00.119
<v Speaker 1>Oh well, one last thing, I think what I then,

0:19:00.200 --> 0:19:06.200
<v Speaker 1>COVID test outside, Yeah, COVID tests outside, you know, make

0:19:06.240 --> 0:19:09.480
<v Speaker 1>sure that everybody before they came in has some way

0:19:09.560 --> 0:19:12.800
<v Speaker 1>of showing their COVID tests were not showing, but just

0:19:12.920 --> 0:19:15.080
<v Speaker 1>getting it done right there. I think it would have

0:19:15.119 --> 0:19:17.359
<v Speaker 1>been for the protection of all of us. Thank god

0:19:17.560 --> 0:19:21.840
<v Speaker 1>that nobody came out. No, I didn't get any news

0:19:22.000 --> 0:19:24.960
<v Speaker 1>of anybody that got sake or anything. But I do

0:19:25.119 --> 0:19:29.840
<v Speaker 1>understand that for health purposes, we have to adapt and understand,

0:19:29.880 --> 0:19:33.240
<v Speaker 1>whether we like it or not, that you know, we

0:19:33.359 --> 0:19:36.240
<v Speaker 1>have to protect ourselves for our health, so, you know.

0:19:36.640 --> 0:19:39.439
<v Speaker 1>But other than that, I really enjoyed just how everything

0:19:39.520 --> 0:19:50.480
<v Speaker 1>came along. Listen. I felt that you wanted to dance

0:19:50.600 --> 0:19:52.600
<v Speaker 1>and have fun, and I felt that under energy, just

0:19:52.640 --> 0:19:55.920
<v Speaker 1>because I know how you are. So I made sure

0:19:55.960 --> 0:19:57.639
<v Speaker 1>I went up to her. I told the t J

0:19:58.320 --> 0:20:01.440
<v Speaker 1>and get classic or I and me and I'm out

0:20:01.560 --> 0:20:04.160
<v Speaker 1>at our moment and we danced and I made sure

0:20:04.240 --> 0:20:06.879
<v Speaker 1>she had her moment. You know. It's so yeah, I'm

0:20:06.920 --> 0:20:14.440
<v Speaker 1>waving a swing thing. We were dancing. We had a

0:20:14.520 --> 0:20:18.520
<v Speaker 1>grand old time. I think I think it was perfect. Actually,

0:20:18.560 --> 0:20:21.000
<v Speaker 1>I'm out. I thought your your baby shower for you?

0:20:21.720 --> 0:20:23.920
<v Speaker 1>You know, it was for you, It wasn't you know?

0:20:24.080 --> 0:20:28.000
<v Speaker 1>It was your day and your twins days. It doesn't

0:20:28.040 --> 0:20:31.760
<v Speaker 1>matter whoever was there was meant to be there. It

0:20:31.920 --> 0:20:35.359
<v Speaker 1>was just that, you know, and I wanted. I wanted

0:20:35.400 --> 0:20:39.480
