0:00:33.479 --> 0:00:36.760
<v Speaker 1>It's normal for a lot of girls nowadays. It's not

0:00:36.840 --> 0:00:44.120
<v Speaker 1>normal for me. You like a girl with a little guy? No, man, okay?

0:00:44.200 --> 0:00:46.760
<v Speaker 1>But yeah, So I did see you guys on marriage

0:00:46.760 --> 0:00:49.440
<v Speaker 1>boot Camp. Yes, that's where it all started. And your

0:00:49.479 --> 0:00:53.640
<v Speaker 1>boo and he's seventeen years younger than you are. Yes, Google,

0:00:54.160 --> 0:00:57.040
<v Speaker 1>Yeah you know. Charlotte, I know you were gonna be

0:00:57.040 --> 0:00:59.400
<v Speaker 1>the person to say it, only because you know how

0:00:59.480 --> 0:01:03.640
<v Speaker 1>much I hate that term. Cooper just feels like you

0:01:03.680 --> 0:01:06.760
<v Speaker 1>know you're taking care of either like the no, but

0:01:06.840 --> 0:01:09.920
<v Speaker 1>I don't take care of him. I'm not a sugar mama.

0:01:10.000 --> 0:01:12.040
<v Speaker 1>That was the whole point. But no, it's not. I

0:01:12.120 --> 0:01:14.200
<v Speaker 1>used to mess with the forty years. So yeah, from

0:01:15.000 --> 0:01:16.600
<v Speaker 1>she used to see me a car service to pick

0:01:16.680 --> 0:01:18.360
<v Speaker 1>me up. Oh yeah, I ain't doing none of that.

0:01:18.720 --> 0:01:23.679
<v Speaker 1>Give me fried chicken and twinkies in a little bag. Else.

0:01:23.680 --> 0:01:26.960
<v Speaker 1>She used to write me checks. She brought your love,

0:01:27.160 --> 0:01:29.080
<v Speaker 1>call me what you want. I was having a good time.

0:01:29.160 --> 0:01:31.840
<v Speaker 1>We were happy. That's when you were. Now I think

0:01:31.840 --> 0:01:33.600
<v Speaker 1>that if a woman did that, it's a problem. But

0:01:33.640 --> 0:01:38.040
<v Speaker 1>it's okay to give you classic baggage with twinkies. We're happy, okay.

0:01:38.600 --> 0:01:41.200
<v Speaker 1>And so what happened? I mean her she was married,

0:01:41.480 --> 0:01:43.000
<v Speaker 1>you know, Oh yeah, it was too it's to me,

0:01:46.000 --> 0:01:48.960
<v Speaker 1>it's too many levels to that relationship. But no, I

0:01:49.040 --> 0:01:51.320
<v Speaker 1>do not take care of Reggie. Just for the world

0:01:51.360 --> 0:01:55.480
<v Speaker 1>to know it was. This pregnancy was planned. Yeah, I

0:01:55.600 --> 0:01:58.360
<v Speaker 1>planned as best it could be. I mean, I never

0:01:58.400 --> 0:02:01.520
<v Speaker 1>thought that I would have children again. But because he

0:02:01.600 --> 0:02:04.080
<v Speaker 1>is seventeen years younger, he's never been married, he's never

0:02:04.120 --> 0:02:07.040
<v Speaker 1>had children, and so, you know, what I learned our

0:02:07.040 --> 0:02:10.079
<v Speaker 1>marriage boot camp was how to compromise in the relationship,

0:02:10.200 --> 0:02:13.920
<v Speaker 1>and so I decided to, you know, give him what

0:02:14.040 --> 0:02:17.360
<v Speaker 1>he doesn't have. He's in his twenties, yes he is,

0:02:17.360 --> 0:02:20.200
<v Speaker 1>what is twenty eight eight where you met him. I

0:02:20.280 --> 0:02:26.320
<v Speaker 1>met him at Carpado, no charmagne. I met him at

0:02:26.360 --> 0:02:29.040
<v Speaker 1>Capados because you know, I'm a greedy chick, so I'm

0:02:29.040 --> 0:02:32.359
<v Speaker 1>always out eating. Is a great excuse to keep eating? Yes,

0:02:32.400 --> 0:02:35.040
<v Speaker 1>it is. I love it. Nobody says anything. Now, did

0:02:35.080 --> 0:02:36.480
<v Speaker 1>you feel a way when you first met him and

0:02:36.520 --> 0:02:38.840
<v Speaker 1>you knew he was that young lord? I did? I

0:02:38.880 --> 0:02:41.000
<v Speaker 1>did because I was like, oh my god, he's closer

0:02:41.040 --> 0:02:43.880
<v Speaker 1>to my daughter's age than mine. My oldest one will

0:02:43.919 --> 0:02:48.000
<v Speaker 1>be twenty one this year, So he might try to no,

0:02:49.320 --> 0:02:52.600
<v Speaker 1>but I got some friends, you know. You know what.

0:02:52.639 --> 0:02:55.040
<v Speaker 1>The thing about it, though, is he's a very mature

0:02:55.240 --> 0:02:57.760
<v Speaker 1>twenty eight. I will say that we're equally yoked in

0:02:57.800 --> 0:03:02.919
<v Speaker 1>that sense, and so I feel like we're comparable to

0:03:02.919 --> 0:03:05.840
<v Speaker 1>each other in terms of his wisdom and things that

0:03:05.880 --> 0:03:08.839
<v Speaker 1>he's experienced and how his upbringing was. It's the same

0:03:08.840 --> 0:03:11.160
<v Speaker 1>as mine. Did him serious though, He's like, Noah, he's

0:03:11.160 --> 0:03:14.920
<v Speaker 1>too young. I'm just going he had to convince you, Um, yeah,

0:03:14.960 --> 0:03:17.000
<v Speaker 1>he had to convince me. Let me that. That's the

0:03:17.120 --> 0:03:18.919
<v Speaker 1>That's the perfect thing is I had to see where

0:03:18.960 --> 0:03:21.120
<v Speaker 1>his mind was and what he was talking about and

0:03:21.400 --> 0:03:23.240
<v Speaker 1>where he's trying to go in life and all of

0:03:23.280 --> 0:03:25.680
<v Speaker 1>that stuff. Now, you also had been in a relationship

0:03:25.720 --> 0:03:28.400
<v Speaker 1>when you did Basketball Watch that you chose to hide

0:03:29.120 --> 0:03:32.680
<v Speaker 1>from the TV world. Did that show affect your relationship

0:03:32.720 --> 0:03:36.520
<v Speaker 1>and perhaps, you know, make it work out? No, I

0:03:36.600 --> 0:03:40.360
<v Speaker 1>was just with a cheater and I didn't know. And

0:03:40.480 --> 0:03:43.240
<v Speaker 1>I didn't know, so I found out the hard way.

0:03:43.320 --> 0:03:48.520
<v Speaker 1>Oh what's the hard way? Looking at his He had

0:03:48.600 --> 0:03:51.320
<v Speaker 1>used my computer one time and left his Twitter up,

0:03:51.360 --> 0:03:56.000
<v Speaker 1>and so that's how I found out. Now that's interesting

0:03:56.000 --> 0:03:57.480
<v Speaker 1>because I would have thrown on the show. They would

0:03:57.480 --> 0:04:00.000
<v Speaker 1>have wanted you to bring your boyfriend on, Oh they did.

0:03:59.760 --> 0:04:02.560
<v Speaker 1>I just didn't feel like, you know, Basketball Wise is

0:04:02.600 --> 0:04:05.320
<v Speaker 1>a different type of situation because I'm on the show

0:04:05.320 --> 0:04:07.440
<v Speaker 1>because I used to be married to Kenny Anderson, right,

0:04:07.520 --> 0:04:10.400
<v Speaker 1>So I just didn't feel like it would be appropriate

0:04:10.440 --> 0:04:13.320
<v Speaker 1>to bring a new relationship into that situation. But you

0:04:13.360 --> 0:04:16.080
<v Speaker 1>guys were married so long ago. It wasn't like it was. Yeah,

0:04:16.120 --> 0:04:17.720
<v Speaker 1>But I mean still at the end of the day,

0:04:17.760 --> 0:04:20.760
<v Speaker 1>the reason I was on Basketball Wise is because of

0:04:20.839 --> 0:04:23.080
<v Speaker 1>Kenny Anderson, and I give him. You know, if it

0:04:23.080 --> 0:04:25.039
<v Speaker 1>weren't for that relationship, I wouldn't have been allowed to

0:04:25.040 --> 0:04:28.440
<v Speaker 1>be on that show. You and Shannie are still cool. Yes, so,

0:04:28.560 --> 0:04:31.320
<v Speaker 1>and you guys are back on Basketball Wives La, Yes,

0:04:31.400 --> 0:04:33.640
<v Speaker 1>we are. I was surprised about that. Now, how did

0:04:33.680 --> 0:04:36.680
<v Speaker 1>that even happen? Shawnnie called me because you know, the

0:04:36.680 --> 0:04:39.400
<v Speaker 1>truth of the matter is, Miami has been the favorite

0:04:39.400 --> 0:04:42.840
<v Speaker 1>in terms of the installment for Basketball Wise, LA struggles

0:04:42.880 --> 0:04:45.919
<v Speaker 1>sometimes in the ratings, and Shawnee was like, you know,

0:04:45.960 --> 0:04:48.119
<v Speaker 1>I'm in LA. You're in LA a lot of the time.

0:04:48.200 --> 0:04:50.599
<v Speaker 1>Let's just you know, make some appearances on there and

0:04:51.320 --> 0:04:57.040
<v Speaker 1>this show. Are you friends with any of those? No? Yes,

0:04:57.200 --> 0:05:00.120
<v Speaker 1>you know heavy smoke. So I did, I said, just

0:05:00.120 --> 0:05:02.640
<v Speaker 1>stopped cold turkey. I didn't stop cold turkey. I used

0:05:03.000 --> 0:05:08.440
<v Speaker 1>medicine called chantics. It's a quit smoking medicine like a patch.

0:05:08.680 --> 0:05:11.640
<v Speaker 1>It's a pill. It's a pill. It's a pill. You

0:05:11.680 --> 0:05:16.520
<v Speaker 1>started popping molly instead of smoking, you know what. It's

0:05:16.560 --> 0:05:18.880
<v Speaker 1>a pill that you know, helps you quit smoking, works

0:05:18.880 --> 0:05:22.520
<v Speaker 1>on your your nervous system and things. And I take it. No,

0:05:22.560 --> 0:05:24.880
<v Speaker 1>I can't take it now. I started long before we

0:05:25.360 --> 0:05:27.520
<v Speaker 1>decided to get pregnant. Now, are you friends with any

0:05:27.560 --> 0:05:31.800
<v Speaker 1>of these I'm not smoking. She's not smoke. Well it

0:05:31.839 --> 0:05:34.320
<v Speaker 1>was hard, but you know, like three weeks in, I

0:05:34.320 --> 0:05:36.919
<v Speaker 1>wasn't smoking anymore and didn't want a cigarette. Wow. Anyway,

0:05:36.960 --> 0:05:38.200
<v Speaker 1>say when you used to having something in your mouth,

0:05:38.200 --> 0:05:39.360
<v Speaker 1>you have to always have something in your mouth. And

0:05:39.400 --> 0:05:41.080
<v Speaker 1>that's what I'm gonna at you. You come out right now,

0:05:41.160 --> 0:05:43.840
<v Speaker 1>are you? Because we could hear it. I'm sure you

0:05:43.839 --> 0:05:46.359
<v Speaker 1>can hear it. You can always hear two and people

0:05:46.360 --> 0:05:51.680
<v Speaker 1>like I just hold it put it back here in.

0:05:58.560 --> 0:06:06.920
<v Speaker 1>You don't. God, it was a fresh piece. And now

0:06:07.000 --> 0:06:09.120
<v Speaker 1>your friends were any of the girls some basketball wives. La.

0:06:10.080 --> 0:06:11.720
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna be honest, and I'm not gonna say that

0:06:11.760 --> 0:06:14.400
<v Speaker 1>we're friends because I don't use that term lightly. But

0:06:14.520 --> 0:06:17.400
<v Speaker 1>I know Jackie. I've been in the same circles as her.

0:06:17.440 --> 0:06:19.760
<v Speaker 1>I've been out at clubs with Malaysia, you know. But

0:06:19.800 --> 0:06:22.360
<v Speaker 1>I wouldn't consider us friends, but I would say that

0:06:22.440 --> 0:06:25.279
<v Speaker 1>we've gotten closer since the taping. Have you been watching

0:06:25.279 --> 0:06:28.400
<v Speaker 1>what's going on with Drea and Orlando? I have seen

0:06:28.440 --> 0:06:31.400
<v Speaker 1>that in the blogs they're on they're off again now right? Yeah.

0:06:31.400 --> 0:06:33.760
<v Speaker 1>I guess he got a restraining order against her right

0:06:33.839 --> 0:06:35.479
<v Speaker 1>because he wanted her to move out of his house,

0:06:35.560 --> 0:06:38.720
<v Speaker 1>and I guess she was allegedly throwing things at him.

0:06:38.800 --> 0:06:41.200
<v Speaker 1>And you know, threatened to put bleach in his eyes

0:06:41.240 --> 0:06:43.720
<v Speaker 1>and all of that. Wow, it's that deep. Yeah, But

0:06:43.880 --> 0:06:45.800
<v Speaker 1>do we believe it though? I mean, I don't know.

0:06:45.960 --> 0:06:48.000
<v Speaker 1>I'm just saying, you know, this is the restanding order,

0:06:48.040 --> 0:06:50.520
<v Speaker 1>this is his claim. She hasn't said anything about it yet,

0:06:50.520 --> 0:06:52.480
<v Speaker 1>So this is what's out there, okay, because I mean

0:06:52.520 --> 0:06:56.240
<v Speaker 1>they're so on again, off again all the time. And

0:06:56.320 --> 0:06:58.480
<v Speaker 1>I know there was some scuttle butt about her trying

0:06:58.480 --> 0:07:02.600
<v Speaker 1>to have her own show, so scut I've never heard

0:07:02.640 --> 0:07:09.480
<v Speaker 1>that some fodder, some fodder, so you think maybe this

0:07:09.560 --> 0:07:11.840
<v Speaker 1>might be her trying to pop. I don't know. I'm

0:07:11.840 --> 0:07:15.000
<v Speaker 1>just saying, you know, it's too many times, you know,

0:07:15.040 --> 0:07:17.120
<v Speaker 1>and every time they do something they have to go

0:07:17.200 --> 0:07:19.400
<v Speaker 1>to the blogs with it. I mean, like y'all not together,

0:07:19.440 --> 0:07:22.000
<v Speaker 1>just fade away from each other and just let somebody

0:07:22.040 --> 0:07:26.800
<v Speaker 1>ask what happened to Dan Orlando? What about you getting

0:07:26.800 --> 0:07:28.520
<v Speaker 1>your own show? Because I was thinking, is she gonna

0:07:28.560 --> 0:07:31.720
<v Speaker 1>do Basketball Wives La and then do her own show

0:07:31.720 --> 0:07:33.760
<v Speaker 1>with her and Neo Boo and Baby on the Way. Well,

0:07:33.840 --> 0:07:36.200
<v Speaker 1>quite honestly, we've been working on that for about two

0:07:36.280 --> 0:07:40.040
<v Speaker 1>years now, and each time it just doesn't seem like

0:07:40.080 --> 0:07:44.240
<v Speaker 1>the right time for me. I mean, if I decide

0:07:44.240 --> 0:07:48.160
<v Speaker 1>to let the world into this whole baby having situation

0:07:48.280 --> 0:07:50.920
<v Speaker 1>with me and Reggie, then maybe. So your life has

0:07:50.920 --> 0:07:52.520
<v Speaker 1>been in front of the world's a lot because obviously

0:07:52.560 --> 0:07:55.040
<v Speaker 1>you started off on the Real World right right, and

0:07:55.080 --> 0:07:58.320
<v Speaker 1>then you did basketball, wives you did you know? Marriage

0:07:58.320 --> 0:08:00.600
<v Speaker 1>boot Cam? Now you're back on basketball. Did I miss

0:08:00.640 --> 0:08:06.440
<v Speaker 1>anything you had got out of the reality show round way?

0:08:06.480 --> 0:08:09.160
<v Speaker 1>I had gotten out of it, but now it's a

0:08:09.160 --> 0:08:12.760
<v Speaker 1>different time, and that is what TV is. Unfortunately, there's

0:08:12.800 --> 0:08:15.640
<v Speaker 1>not a lot of scripted programming, especially for African Americans.

0:08:15.920 --> 0:08:19.200
<v Speaker 1>Not to get all into that conversation, but reality TV

0:08:19.480 --> 0:08:21.800
<v Speaker 1>is what's on TV right now. So if you want

0:08:21.800 --> 0:08:24.040
<v Speaker 1>to keep working, you can't be a TV personality and

0:08:24.080 --> 0:08:26.520
<v Speaker 1>not be on TV. What about Evalent show? Have you

0:08:26.600 --> 0:08:28.760
<v Speaker 1>checked out her show yet? I have not, have you?

0:08:29.760 --> 0:08:31.600
<v Speaker 1>It was only been one episode so far, but I

0:08:31.640 --> 0:08:33.480
<v Speaker 1>did DVR and I do plan to watch it that one.

0:08:33.559 --> 0:08:35.800
<v Speaker 1>So you have not, no, not yet, But I'm going

0:08:35.880 --> 0:08:41.160
<v Speaker 1>to have you. Charlomagne, absolutely, you know she had a show. Really,

0:08:45.440 --> 0:08:46.920
<v Speaker 1>I thought that was just a ya. I thought she

0:08:46.960 --> 0:08:50.360
<v Speaker 1>was crying on it, Ayanna, So who do you still

0:08:50.400 --> 0:08:54.360

0:09:04.960 --> 0:09:08.160
<v Speaker 1>I personally don't like being in the blox, you know.

0:09:08.240 --> 0:09:10.720
<v Speaker 1>I feel like, unless it's really something valuable, I don't

0:09:10.760 --> 0:09:13.000
<v Speaker 1>consider some of the things that are on the blogs news.

0:09:13.480 --> 0:09:16.480
<v Speaker 1>Does it concern you that perhaps when you first met Reggie, oh,

0:09:16.600 --> 0:09:18.679
<v Speaker 1>is he trying to be I mean, because um, you

0:09:18.720 --> 0:09:21.240

0:09:21.240 --> 0:09:23.640
<v Speaker 1>you think that at all? Ever? No, I never thought

0:09:23.640 --> 0:09:25.760
<v Speaker 1>that because he didn't know who I was when we met.

0:09:26.040 --> 0:09:29.199
<v Speaker 1>So he just treated me real like, you know, yeah whatever,

0:09:29.520 --> 0:09:31.600

0:09:45.840 --> 0:09:48.959
<v Speaker 1>love them, yeah, they you know. I mean like it's

0:09:49.040 --> 0:09:52.920
<v Speaker 1>really a good adjusted, blended family. I mean, people would

0:09:52.960 --> 0:09:55.320
<v Speaker 1>think that my daughters would be like, oh, mom, you

0:09:55.360 --> 0:09:57.839
<v Speaker 1>know he's so much younger, he's closer to our age,

0:09:57.920 --> 0:09:59.640
<v Speaker 1>or you know, we could be in college with him

0:09:59.640 --> 0:10:02.280

0:10:02.320 --> 0:10:04.240
<v Speaker 1>you happy, and we want to see our mom happy,

0:10:04.280 --> 0:10:06.120
<v Speaker 1>so they're happy for me. Is it true that you

0:10:06.160 --> 0:10:09.040
<v Speaker 1>had a heart attack from poor dieting? I did really,

0:10:09.520 --> 0:10:12.439
<v Speaker 1>like what kind of heart attack? Like a big one? No,

0:10:14.400 --> 0:10:16.040
<v Speaker 1>there are levels two heart attacks. But I had a

0:10:16.080 --> 0:10:18.839
<v Speaker 1>mini heart attack and uh it was it was due

0:10:18.880 --> 0:10:21.679
<v Speaker 1>to diet and smoking. And I'm also a diabetic and

0:10:21.720 --> 0:10:23.360
<v Speaker 1>so you know, those are all the things that I'm

0:10:23.400 --> 0:10:25.560
<v Speaker 1>worried about with this pregnancy. Is just trying to do

0:10:25.600 --> 0:10:27.880
<v Speaker 1>the right thing so that you know where were you

0:10:27.880 --> 0:10:32.800
<v Speaker 1>when it was happening? Houston? Wow? At the crib? Wow? Yep, yep,

0:10:33.480 --> 0:10:35.880
<v Speaker 1>that's crazy. I remember reading that you would rush to

0:10:35.880 --> 0:10:39.160
<v Speaker 1>the hospital and I was like, yes, yep, that's what happened.

0:10:39.440 --> 0:10:41.800
<v Speaker 1>Just so do you consider like people that you did

0:10:41.880 --> 0:10:43.839
<v Speaker 1>these shows like Royce is your real friends? Showing is

0:10:43.880 --> 0:10:45.560
<v Speaker 1>your friend in real life? Like something like that happens.

0:10:45.559 --> 0:10:47.920
<v Speaker 1>They call you right away and they're like, girl, what happened?

0:10:47.920 --> 0:10:49.920
<v Speaker 1>Are you okay? You're saying is that what I based

0:10:49.920 --> 0:10:52.000
<v Speaker 1>friendship on? You know? I'm saying, are they your real friends?

0:10:52.000 --> 0:10:55.199
<v Speaker 1>Like they called? Yes? I watched Basketball Wise and I

0:10:55.240 --> 0:10:57.199
<v Speaker 1>saw him. Alasiah was upset that Drea didn't even reach

0:10:57.200 --> 0:10:59.439
<v Speaker 1>out to her when yeah, yeah, I did see that.

0:10:59.559 --> 0:11:02.800
<v Speaker 1>I did see that. I think that if people really

0:11:02.840 --> 0:11:05.640
<v Speaker 1>genuinely care about you, that I mean, like, I have

0:11:05.800 --> 0:11:08.880
<v Speaker 1>people that I know in passing that reached out and

0:11:08.920 --> 0:11:11.079
<v Speaker 1>were like, you know, I hope you're okay. I heard

0:11:11.080 --> 0:11:13.640
<v Speaker 1>about the situation. So the people that I feel that

0:11:13.679 --> 0:11:17.400
<v Speaker 1>I've allowed into my space enough to consider them a friend, definitely,

0:11:17.440 --> 0:11:19.080
<v Speaker 1>I'm hoping they reach out. And I think that's what

0:11:19.160 --> 0:11:21.880
<v Speaker 1>Malaysia was going through. Okay. And then I just want

0:11:21.880 --> 0:11:24.360
<v Speaker 1>to ask you one last thing about reality TV. There's

0:11:24.400 --> 0:11:26.520
<v Speaker 1>so much Like Lila was on here and she was saying,

0:11:26.559 --> 0:11:30.160
<v Speaker 1>it's really difficult to be taken seriously in acting during

0:11:30.200 --> 0:11:32.120
<v Speaker 1>a reality show. So that's why she stopped. That's why

0:11:32.160 --> 0:11:34.280
<v Speaker 1>she stopped her show. Yeah, that's why she stopped her show.

0:11:34.559 --> 0:11:36.800
<v Speaker 1>Now for you, because I know you act. Also, do

0:11:36.800 --> 0:11:39.160
<v Speaker 1>you feel like it hurts you when it comes to acting?

0:11:39.360 --> 0:11:42.840
<v Speaker 1>I definitely think that it hurts me because unfortunately, there

0:11:42.880 --> 0:11:45.120
<v Speaker 1>are a lot of new casting directors, even though I

0:11:45.120 --> 0:11:47.920
<v Speaker 1>have been doing this for like fourteen years. Those casting directors,

0:11:47.920 --> 0:11:50.480
<v Speaker 1>some of them aren't in the business anymore. So now

0:11:50.679 --> 0:11:54.120
<v Speaker 1>the casting directors of new only know me from basketball wise,

0:11:54.120 --> 0:11:56.560
<v Speaker 1>they don't even know that I can act, So it

0:11:56.720 --> 0:12:00.280
<v Speaker 1>is difficult at times. But you know, I just if

0:12:00.280 --> 0:12:02.559
<v Speaker 1>there's an audition that comes through and it works for me,

0:12:02.920 --> 0:12:04.840
<v Speaker 1>you know, I go out and hopefully I get it,

0:12:04.880 --> 0:12:06.960
<v Speaker 1>just like I did this new pilot called The Assist

0:12:07.480 --> 0:12:11.360
<v Speaker 1>that stars Nick Young and Brook Valentine and a young

0:12:11.440 --> 0:12:14.320
<v Speaker 1>lady named Paris Phillips. You know, when the opportunities are

0:12:14.360 --> 0:12:16.320
<v Speaker 1>out there and I'm able to audition, I go in

0:12:16.360 --> 0:12:17.800
<v Speaker 1>and I just do what I need to do so

0:12:17.920 --> 0:12:20.680
<v Speaker 1>that show is picked up in everything The Assist, Yes, okay,

0:12:20.720 --> 0:12:26.280
<v Speaker 1>good Holly Berry, yes, extant um, CBS, okay, Yeah, but

0:12:26.440 --> 0:12:31.560
<v Speaker 1>now the story's going on and my character is no longer. Yeah,

0:12:31.600 --> 0:12:33.160
<v Speaker 1>but it's been a blessing for you because you have

0:12:33.280 --> 0:12:36.560
<v Speaker 1>been able to work still constantly. I think people need

0:12:36.600 --> 0:12:38.520
<v Speaker 1>to respect my hustle because I'm one of the few

0:12:38.520 --> 0:12:41.480
<v Speaker 1>people who's been on TV for about twenty one years consistently.

0:12:42.800 --> 0:12:45.200
<v Speaker 1>I mean, you might know me from Basketball, Wives or whatever,

0:12:45.640 --> 0:12:47.200
<v Speaker 1>but there are a lot of people who do shows

0:12:47.200 --> 0:12:49.040
<v Speaker 1>and they fade away and you never hear from them again.

0:12:49.040 --> 0:12:53.800
