Speaker 1: the Atlanta Hawks. She was not just a cheerleader, but
Speaker 1: she was doing a lot of hosting on the ground,
Speaker 1: on the court side, and she was doing a lot
Speaker 1: of stuff like that. Then all of a sudden I
Speaker 1: saw her. I heard her doing radio at V one
Speaker 1: O three. Then all of a sudden, I heard her
Speaker 1: doing the Warning show at Streets Now four or five.
Speaker 1: I actually did a couple of morning shows with her,
Speaker 1: so we're gonna be talking to her. Then I see
Speaker 1: her on TV on Atlanta Housewives, and um, she has

Speaker 1: it's going, it's going. I'm just happy to be COVID
Speaker 1: free in twenties one. So I'm gonna list a couple
Speaker 1: of things that I've witnessed you do. I first saw
Speaker 1: you cheerleading on the Atlanta Hawks, but you weren't just
Speaker 1: a cheerleader. You were on the sidelines doing reporting. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I actually landed into that after the fact, you know,
Speaker 1: being at the right place at the right time deal.
Speaker 1: I started out here, and um, actually weird. People don't realize.
Speaker 1: I started with the Hawks back in two thousands three.
Speaker 1: I'm not trying to age myself, but back in two
Speaker 1: thousands there was my rookie season cheer for them. I
Speaker 1: left them and went to the Falcons, where I did
Speaker 1: like five six seasons. Then I was like, I want
Speaker 1: to do some broadcast stuff, you know, I wanna because
Speaker 1: I had studied at Morris Brown broadcast durnalism. So I
Speaker 1: was like, I'm gonna do like in game stuff. I
Speaker 1: like football, like people, you know. So I've been doing
Speaker 1: some radio stuff for d B with Ryan and Ryan
Speaker 1: was the plug. One day the current the existing host
Speaker 1: didn't show up. She was, I guess called in l
Speaker 1: A and he was like you ready. I was like already,
Speaker 1: and they gave me the script and I killed that
Speaker 1: ship and they were like, okay, you don't let you
Speaker 1: be the feeling. Then when she's not available, you can
Speaker 1: just jump in and do it. And from there, you know,
Speaker 1: just it happened. So, I mean, it's crazy to think
Speaker 1: back now because people text me and the d M
Speaker 1: and me and like, hey, do what you do? How
Speaker 1: do I do it? I'm like, yeah, y'all know, there's
Speaker 1: no I guess right right. I'm like started out hosting
Speaker 1: little stuff and around the city and then you know,
Speaker 1: all right, so wait, wait wait, I wasn't done. Wait
Speaker 1: here we go. So then I'm driving, I'm going. I
Speaker 1: forget where I was going. It was like, no, I
Speaker 1: was going to the club. I ain't ana lie and
Speaker 1: I hear you won't be one all through I said, damn,
Speaker 1: this girl's on the radio. I was at I was
Speaker 1: at the Halls game. I saw her on the big screen. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and all of a sudden, I leave you went through.
Speaker 1: I go the streets now for five I had to
Speaker 1: fill in on the morning show. And look at you
Speaker 1: coming in with you a little bit belly old and
Speaker 1: you're doing the morning show. Yeah. And then all of
Speaker 1: a sudden, I think within the same week I saw
Speaker 1: you on TV. Look at that modest last. You know,
Speaker 1: when you get so many companiments you don't really know
Speaker 1: how to take it. Just last, a baby married, that's
Speaker 1: a lot. That's a lot, Like I mean, you know
Speaker 1: what she's actually one of the few women on the
Speaker 1: Atlanta Housewives that is married because she's looking. Man, let
Speaker 1: me tell you my cup running over. I'm just like
Speaker 1: you know, everybody always says like there's light at end
Speaker 1: of the tune, Like for everything great that's happening in
Speaker 1: my life, there's a batch that's happened in my past.
Speaker 1: And that's why I tell people to be encouraged, you
Speaker 1: know what I mean, Like, just because you don't see
Speaker 1: it or you don't feel it, God is working through
Speaker 1: you and always for you. So if it's something out
Speaker 1: there for you, if you are want to do great things,
Speaker 1: you dest and Forgret, we are all destined for greatness.
Speaker 1: We just gotta figure out what we want to do
Speaker 1: and walk in that light. So for me, I always like,
Speaker 1: I've always been real big on people and just you know,
Speaker 1: I'm a socialite, so I feel like they all work
Speaker 1: hand in hand, radio, TV, music, UM hosting, it's all
Speaker 1: like married to each other. When he was in a
Speaker 1: sense because when you like people, you just like people.
Speaker 1: Don't it don't really matter, don't feel like work, You're
Speaker 1: just out and about just hanging out. So yeah, you know,
Speaker 1: I it was kind of sting you though, Rory, I
Speaker 1: feel like I left b and then it was like
Speaker 1: you're going over there, come over that. Where are your
Speaker 1: originally from? Sham? I'm from here in Atlanta? Okay? Um,
Speaker 1: so right now I'm in Sandy Springs. But you know
Speaker 1: I'm a Dicata baby born at Emory Crawford Long in
Speaker 1: this city. We have joked my sister that my sisters
Speaker 1: want to great to me, be like mama to may
Speaker 1: handle money when you was born. But they had a
Speaker 1: little okay, and I graduated from Grettie High School. Okay,
Speaker 1: dog get one, diafle north side. Then you get a
Speaker 1: bunch of grated baby. They said about the about five
Speaker 1: or six times before we refilled that car. No, you know,
Speaker 1: I'm from Atlanta, the Cator Southwestern cab High School. How
Speaker 1: did you get into the Hawks? Um? How did you
Speaker 1: get into the arena? Did you always want to be
Speaker 1: a part of it or Yeah? I got into hosting
Speaker 1: the Hawks by way of dancing and cheering, but that's
Speaker 1: how people knew me. But I got the hosting gig
Speaker 1: from Ryan Cameron Ryan Plugmy Ryan Plugmy's radio. Ryan is
Speaker 1: my mentor. When it comes down to like radio and
Speaker 1: hosting this kind of stuff. So he really just took
Speaker 1: me on this wing and he was like, you can
Speaker 1: do it. You know, you can. Even look at this
Speaker 1: day he'll be like, now you sounded stupid when you said, dude,
Speaker 1: you gotta up. You gotta not be like okay, okay,
Speaker 1: but yeah, with shout out to Ryan too, he's recovering
Speaker 1: still rightly. I used to actually for this his show,
Speaker 1: um for like three years before. Yeah, who hasn't you
Speaker 1: worked with Yeah, well, you know, since you mentioned cheerleading,
Speaker 1: I do want to know maybe some locker room tails. Girl,
Speaker 1: tell me, did you ever date any of the players
Speaker 1: while you were cheerleading? You know I didn't. I've never
Speaker 1: been really into athletes. I'm like the white collar guy,
Speaker 1: Like I want the accountant that you know you hired,
Speaker 1: I want your rep, your lawyer, you're that guy, you know,
Speaker 1: the athlete. I'm a hook thing up with my home girl,
Speaker 1: like your whole girls were all over it to like
Speaker 1: girl was going to the club. Sure, And I'm I'm
Speaker 1: always like the friend of all the athletes, you know,
Speaker 1: like the sister like less party and brain dam girls
Speaker 1: and brain Branthon Jillian to the pool party and bring
Speaker 1: you know that was that was kind of my role.
Speaker 1: I want your age girl, That's that sounds familiar. You're
Speaker 1: the one that they won't try, they won't disrespect, but
Speaker 1: they will try and disrespect your girlfriends. I feel you said, yeah,
Speaker 1: I just got to play the whole. I didn't know
Speaker 1: he was with that girl. No, why you let him
Speaker 1: do that to you? I told you you wasn't. I
Speaker 1: do have a serious question. You know that for African
Speaker 1: American women it's kind of hard to basically accomplish damn
Speaker 1: there anything? Did you? Did you find any type of
Speaker 1: hardships when you were cheering to announcing because of your
Speaker 1: ethnicity at all? Or was everything you in my career period,
Speaker 1: they're always like setbacks, but you use those to move
Speaker 1: forward if you can figure out a way to use
Speaker 1: it to your advantage and if it works for you.
Speaker 1: Like for me, I was a token black girl and
Speaker 1: I ran with that ship. I was the chocolate girl
Speaker 1: because like back in the day, back in two thousand three,
Speaker 1: like when when I first started dancing and cheering, that
Speaker 1: was no actually started actually did my first role in
Speaker 1: drum Line. It was a movie where uh I danced
Speaker 1: alongside when we saw Donna. Yeah right, it was for me.
Speaker 1: You know, I gotta go back. I gotta go back
Speaker 1: and watch that. Yeah, you gotta watch it. So for
Speaker 1: me like exact. And I mean, I hate to sound
Speaker 1: like this, but Hollywood is changing to where chocolate and
Speaker 1: black is now beginning to be beautiful. It's always been beautiful,
Speaker 1: but in their eyes, they're starting to see it. So
Speaker 1: back in the day, it was the same way on
Speaker 1: the sidelines, like I candy wasn't technically like like you
Speaker 1: had to be mixed or you know, or you have
Speaker 1: to be exotic or you know. And I'm like, hey,
Speaker 1: I'm chocolate. I'm zotic as hell, Like this is what
Speaker 1: you're gonna get. And it was so crazy because I
Speaker 1: remember one time I went to a school in Atlanta,
Speaker 1: elementary school and this little girl came on to me.
Speaker 1: She was like, you're chilly. Don't know that I am.
Speaker 1: She was like, how did you get on the team?
Speaker 1: She was like because you're so black, And like, I know, girl,
Speaker 1: and I'm working home black girl magic. I was because
Speaker 1: you don't She's like, no, I'm too dark skin. And
Speaker 1: it broke my heart because I'm like, wow, why would
Speaker 1: you say that? You know, like me growing up and
Speaker 1: we um. I have two older sisters. My older sisters
Speaker 1: like light light light, like you, I take it, and
Speaker 1: then my middle sister is like you, Sue, and then
Speaker 1: on the chocolate one. So we're like three shades, you
Speaker 1: know what I mean. But we loved it, and my
Speaker 1: parents would be like, where's my little chocolate drop? Where
Speaker 1: is my chocolate Barbie? And I feel like it starts
Speaker 1: at home, like it can. We can use this and
Speaker 1: I'm going in to to push us forward, like sure,
Speaker 1: I will say as a woman, though there have been
Speaker 1: some hiccups, I'm a singer. I started out entertainment period.
Speaker 1: I only started dancing because I was singing and I
Speaker 1: was singing in different groups and and with someone you
Speaker 1: probably know some of the people have had their big moments, um,
Speaker 1: but for me, it was like, you know, just I
Speaker 1: don't want to have sex with you. I want to
Speaker 1: do music with you. I want to create and make
Speaker 1: money with you. And that's why I good representation is
Speaker 1: always good in this industry because you don't have to
Speaker 1: be the one speaking like you can just go in
Speaker 1: there and be the artists. And that is the hardest
Speaker 1: thing I feel for me being taken serious as an
Speaker 1: artist and as an entertainer and not as like, um,
Speaker 1: can I smash. I think that's a struggle for women
Speaker 1: period and entertainment, because I've come across that a lot.
Speaker 1: Don't stop almost it's worse like you're married, but you
Speaker 1: had some friends like our secret can we you know,
Speaker 1: and it's like, well, I kind of just want to
Speaker 1: just do this and not smash you. Definitely, like I
Speaker 1: Tavia said, it happens all the time in every way.
Speaker 1: I worked in nightlife for a little over ten years,
Speaker 1: and I think the first position I had, I was
Speaker 1: the email girl. Okay, I was young. I'm the email girl,
Speaker 1: and I'm just like, oh my god, like I'm out
Speaker 1: here looking crazy? Why are all these been talking to me?
Speaker 1: Then it's like as the cashier, it didn't matter what
Speaker 1: you did, It didn't matter what you look like, what
Speaker 1: you had on. If you were walking and you had
Speaker 1: a vagina and they wanted some, they were going for it.
Speaker 1: It's so disgusting, and it is so sad because you know,
Speaker 1: men don't I mean not ting. I'm sure I'll have
Speaker 1: y'all things guys. Hey, hey, sorry, is amazing. He right
Speaker 1: to be honest with you. They had been a lot
Speaker 1: of guys in the industry that would tell me, like,
Speaker 1: y'all to I want to work with you. Whether it
Speaker 1: was you know, jumping on my brunch or coming up
Speaker 1: with a new event to do, or whatever the case was,
Speaker 1: there was always this underlying thing of them wanting to
Speaker 1: have sex. And come when when Rory took me under
Speaker 1: his wing, you wouldn't believe our I never told you this,
Speaker 1: but a couple of women hit me and were like, hey,
Speaker 1: you have no idea that you are working with a
Speaker 1: gem ra is the only man that ever made me
Speaker 1: feel comfortable. Um, he's never tried me. And I was like,
Speaker 1: I think it has a lot to do me being
Speaker 1: deeply in love with my wife. Yes, probably the love
Speaker 1: for your daughters too. Yes, running across no crazy man.
Speaker 1: But wait, listen, ladies, listen, listen. We're talking about vaginas.
Speaker 1: That's cool. Let's talk about the vaginas on TV that
Speaker 1: is uh in acquaintances with now you are wait, wait
Speaker 1: before you go to that world. I just want to
Speaker 1: mention Shamia on the spirit you know of your the
Speaker 1: spirit of a black woman, like a darker you know,
Speaker 1: the sun kissed beautiful black woman, you know, because a
Speaker 1: lot of people don't have that attitude, you know, And um,
Speaker 1: I just I come across so many people with either
Speaker 1: negative attitudes, even light skinned women with you know, attitude
Speaker 1: problems like black comes in all different shades, and I
Speaker 1: just have to embrace each other. So I just want
Speaker 1: to we are all beautiful in our own right, you
Speaker 1: know what I mean. And that's that's that's it's sad
Speaker 1: that we just always have to remind each other. And
Speaker 1: you know, that's why it's a crazy because people are like,
Speaker 1: you know, oh you read my comment on Instagram, But
Speaker 1: it makes me feel good. You can say it million
Speaker 1: times a day. But sometimes people just don't feel pretty.
Speaker 1: Sometimes people don't feel uh just value, you know what
Speaker 1: I mean. So for me, when I go on another
Speaker 1: person's page, I might, I mean I sometimes I even
Speaker 1: go to the extreme and I might even set a
Speaker 1: little like a lesbian because I literally give it to you.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna be like food, you look gorgeous, boobs parkeys,
Speaker 1: but but all the confidence, give all talking, you are
Speaker 1: you winning, You're working you guys, And why shouldn't I
Speaker 1: be a the component? Why can't love like why can't
Speaker 1: we do that for each other? Why we always gotta
Speaker 1: try to pull off the negative ship. You know, my
Speaker 1: hair getting great. I know my hair just be messed
Speaker 1: up sometimes. But why don't you just say d yeah,
Speaker 1: but your waistlines that you know what that that's that
Speaker 1: PTSD in our community. Okay, a lot of us are
Speaker 1: dealing with it and don't even know it. All right, ladies,
Speaker 1: stop running from a damn question. Okay, let me get back.
Speaker 1: I'm sorry. Okay, let me segue back into it. Okay,
Speaker 1: house Wives of Atlanta. Now keep in mind that's not
Speaker 1: necessarily my cup of tea. I'd rather watch sports, but
Speaker 1: I do need to know what's going on out here
Speaker 1: in the streets. Okay, when wife's downstairs watching that, I
Speaker 1: tend to get you a little bit of it. That's
Speaker 1: all kind of like a little date thing that we
Speaker 1: could do. Oh yeah, and I noticed that Shama Morton
Speaker 1: is never necessarily in any drama on the show. You're
Speaker 1: kind of just like, uh, you're just hanging out. Um,
Speaker 1: initially get a little weird. Initially correct me if I'm wrong,
Speaker 1: because you know, I may be off a little bit.
Speaker 1: You were brought to the show, your porscheous friends. Did
Speaker 1: you pors you grow up together? Yeah, we both grew
Speaker 1: up indicator are paid for good friends with each come
Speaker 1: on out. We both went this out with the cab,
Speaker 1: which you were forced friends that first with our parents
Speaker 1: were good friends, and then our friendship, you know, took
Speaker 1: on its own life and we've just been like, now
Speaker 1: this is good. From the next question, are you cool
Speaker 1: with anybody else on the show? Like, is there somebody
Speaker 1: on the show that you met that was like, oh wow,
Speaker 1: they're actually really cool or they actually might not necessarily be.
Speaker 1: I've always been very fond of Candy Kansas. Yeah. Friends
Speaker 1: with Candy? Yeah, her a new song, right, y'allinger, first
Speaker 1: female whatever. I tell you. That's why you know, when
Speaker 1: you're a good person, you're gonna always when you're gonna
Speaker 1: stay winning, because she just she's the definition of like
Speaker 1: her magic. She's doing everything for music to acting to
Speaker 1: you know, she's just this is crazy crowd right like
Speaker 1: that money. But yeah, So I met Candy up. Actually
Speaker 1: back in the day, I was in a group called
Speaker 1: Pretty Tony with Anthony did and with Carrie is In
Speaker 1: and we had did It. We were in the studio
Speaker 1: and Kenny never remembers. I mean, she remembers everything now,
Speaker 1: but of course I wasn't cool like that back then.
Speaker 1: She like, So I was telling her like, I met
Speaker 1: you back in the day. I was in the group.
Speaker 1: But the last she was like, you did. I was
Speaker 1: like he was trying to write something. She was like,
Speaker 1: I love like yeah, and I was like, it wasn't
Speaker 1: Maybe it wasn't this group, Maybe it was that was
Speaker 1: another group that myself. She's literally like I think I
Speaker 1: told her other day I put on clostos, like I
Speaker 1: think you have hyper with our because she don't forget nothing.
Speaker 1: There are only a few people in this world that
Speaker 1: can remember everything from their childhood all the way up
Speaker 1: and today, and Kidie on those people. You can say
Speaker 1: something on March twenty one, two thousand and four, and
Speaker 1: she will tell you the day at the time to
Speaker 1: play home where you said it, and how you said,
Speaker 1: what she was wearing when she was wearing But that's crazy. Yeah,
Speaker 1: she's like that. But yeah, So Katie was a cool
Speaker 1: person um parts and the show, and then of course
Speaker 1: we got a little closer with me doing the show
Speaker 1: and being around Porsche because she and Porsche were actually
Speaker 1: really good friends. And then we just kept our friendship going. Well,
Speaker 1: it's a it's a lot of beef on the Housewives
Speaker 1: of Atlanta, of course, and uh, you know, I was
Speaker 1: a little nervous that the reunion may not be as
Speaker 1: popping as they have been in the past because everyone
Speaker 1: was at home. But it was like this, but maybe
Speaker 1: that's for you. In was hot. It was hot, yo,
Speaker 1: Para was going in on Kenya screaming crazy. That's a
Speaker 1: great question. What is the real be? It wouldn't be
Speaker 1: no TV if everybody got along, could be it could
Speaker 1: be just see any good thing. Um. I think that naturally,
Speaker 1: when you have different women, they're all powerful and doing
Speaker 1: their own thing, and they're bosses, all of them, all
Speaker 1: the beautiful, and you bring them all together, there's gonna
Speaker 1: be something. And then TV just magnifies it. And then
Speaker 1: when you look back at it, it's even worse because
Speaker 1: it's like you live through it at the time, then
Speaker 1: you relive through it when it airs, and then reunion
Speaker 1: you bring it back up again to all these emotions.
Speaker 1: So I could have beat but you robbery yesterday. We
Speaker 1: talked about it today, Then tomorrow I'm mad again because
Speaker 1: I'm like, I know you did this far and that
Speaker 1: you said that. Then they' getting their confessionals and you're
Speaker 1: just talking so crazy and then you you you relive
Speaker 1: it like I got you on the reunion. Well, not
Speaker 1: only do you keep it cool when you're on the show,
Speaker 1: you seem to just be a neutral person, but it
Speaker 1: seems like you also keep your personal life. Yeah, because
Speaker 1: that belongs to me, I mean, And that's the crazy
Speaker 1: thing about it. UM, just finding that balance. A lot
Speaker 1: of people I said, even in the past, like oh,
Speaker 1: you you'll never get a peach. I don't want one,
Speaker 1: Like I'm a true peach because I'm from Georgia and
Speaker 1: this is my stage. I will say, Um, my marriage,
Speaker 1: my family will always be my priority and come first
Speaker 1: in my life. And if it doesn't feel right for
Speaker 1: my spoff, then it doesn't feel right for me. So
Speaker 1: when my husband told me we were approached about it,
Speaker 1: um doing me being full time and on the cast
Speaker 1: um as an actual housewife. Um, I thought it was
Speaker 1: a great opportunity here. I was ready jump all over it.
Speaker 1: I'm like, I get to hang out with my friends
Speaker 1: and get paid to do it, and you know, and
Speaker 1: it just house I believe or not. Whether people admitted
Speaker 1: it does give you the platform that you need to
Speaker 1: rest and other things in your career, whereas it might
Speaker 1: take me ten times longer to get an album now
Speaker 1: if I was on, I was, I was like full time,
Speaker 1: that would be like tomorrow you're on the Ellen Show
Speaker 1: or now you're on with the Show. You know, like
Speaker 1: it's just it's a platform that you just can't really
Speaker 1: pay for. But my husband was like, I'm not comfortable
Speaker 1: with it. I don't I don't want to do it,
Speaker 1: and I want our lives to be good outside of
Speaker 1: that show. Um, and I'm just not really sure that
Speaker 1: doing a show like this will work for us. What
Speaker 1: do you say? And I was just like I was
Speaker 1: a little bang on. I was a little I had
Speaker 1: a little heart burned about it the first so bothered.
Speaker 1: That was like, hold on, you stopped my coins, but
Speaker 1: we're gonna we got our coins over here, don't Yeah,
Speaker 1: could keep right? So not all right now? All points
Speaker 1: are good coins and um he brought up up He
Speaker 1: was like, you know, there's not how many successful marriages
Speaker 1: have you seen on reality TV? Period? Not house Hello
Speaker 1: as I'm not taking no dig that Housewives by any means,
Speaker 1: but just period, because he's like, because some things, you know,
Speaker 1: your mom used to tell you what happens in this house,
Speaker 1: stay in this house. That has always been our thing.
Speaker 1: What happens in this house on TV is all on
Speaker 1: TV and the intern all fair game. It's often because
Speaker 1: they said, people feel like you signed up for it,
Speaker 1: Like that's funny because I always hear um celebrities go
Speaker 1: back and forth with with fans about like, you know
Speaker 1: you signed up for it. Well, I didn't sign up
Speaker 1: for you to come up to me and say, well,
Speaker 1: I'm having dinner with my family, or when I'm at
Speaker 1: my going to college office, you asking me for a
Speaker 1: picture and I got our legs and there like you know,
Speaker 1: it's like there's some privacy and that's just something that
Speaker 1: we both agree that we wanted to keep. People have
Speaker 1: not realized that they have become so concerned ooomed with
Speaker 1: looking into other people's lives that they it's just second
Speaker 1: nature to them to say that, yeah, signed up to
Speaker 1: not have any privacy. Is bs like, no, I signed
Speaker 1: up to share my art, to share my talent. I
Speaker 1: don't have to give you every single, every single minute
Speaker 1: of my life. I can be with my family and
Speaker 1: enjoy that. I don't owe you a photo every time
Speaker 1: and autograph every time. And that's why I a friend
Speaker 1: to the show for me works for me because I
Speaker 1: can jump in and play what I want and then
