But still 60 00:03:15,600 --> 00:03:18,160 Speaker 1: you can have so much success early and you're still 61 00:03:18,200 --> 00:03:22,000 Speaker 1: having success now in your mind. How does that work 62 00:03:22,080 --> 00:03:24,800 Speaker 1: when people think about because your success is in the 63 00:03:24,840 --> 00:03:29,680 Speaker 1: public's eye. Yeah, it's scary. It's it's scary. Like you said, 64 00:03:29,720 --> 00:03:35,600 Speaker 1: you know, to be completely honest and and and forthcoming. Uh, 65 00:03:35,760 --> 00:03:39,040 Speaker 1: I started wondering when was I washed up? I was like, 66 00:03:39,160 --> 00:03:42,080 Speaker 1: I've done so much already, what else is there left 67 00:03:42,120 --> 00:03:45,640 Speaker 1: for me to do on a TV? Uh? And it was. 68 00:03:45,720 --> 00:03:47,560 Speaker 1: It was a very scary moment. It was a very 69 00:03:47,600 --> 00:03:50,160 Speaker 1: scary moment cause I was like, I'm trying everything that 70 00:03:50,200 --> 00:03:54,720 Speaker 1: I can possibly think of to reinvent myself to stay 71 00:03:54,880 --> 00:03:59,440 Speaker 1: relevant in this opportunity. Thank God came and opened the 72 00:03:59,480 --> 00:04:02,920 Speaker 1: door and I manifested this. Uh. I had it on 73 00:04:02,960 --> 00:04:05,800 Speaker 1: my vision board to host a huge competition show like 74 00:04:05,800 --> 00:04:09,840 Speaker 1: like Alter Ego UM. And I'm so grateful to the 75 00:04:09,840 --> 00:04:13,680 Speaker 1: people at Fox and the producers who did not go 76 00:04:13,800 --> 00:04:18,119 Speaker 1: the traditional route for a host and chose this little 77 00:04:18,120 --> 00:04:23,560 Speaker 1: brown girl to her dream and and host this humongous 78 00:04:23,600 --> 00:04:27,640 Speaker 1: opportunity UM show. And not only that, to come off 79 00:04:27,720 --> 00:04:31,760 Speaker 1: of behind Nick Cannon, who's you know, the mass singer 80 00:04:31,880 --> 00:04:35,159 Speaker 1: and and another huge show and another huge opportunity that 81 00:04:35,240 --> 00:04:40,119 Speaker 1: Fox gave you know, somebody that wasn't traditional as a host. 82 00:04:40,320 --> 00:04:42,600 Speaker 1: So I really, I really thank them and I applaud 83 00:04:42,640 --> 00:04:46,760 Speaker 1: them for for opening the door and giving me this opportunity. Robert, 84 00:04:46,800 --> 00:04:49,120 Speaker 1: I bring it up because, like I said, uh, it 85 00:04:49,240 --> 00:04:51,520 Speaker 1: really is interesting when we look at our lives, look 86 00:04:51,560 --> 00:04:53,400 Speaker 1: at your lives. You know, last time we saw each 87 00:04:53,400 --> 00:04:58,240 Speaker 1: other physical I think was in the Disney Dreamers ago. Yeah, 88 00:04:58,360 --> 00:05:00,120 Speaker 1: this had to be like in twenty six in the 89 00:05:00,160 --> 00:05:02,960 Speaker 1: fifteen last time I saw you, and you're looking fantastic 90 00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:06,000 Speaker 1: like you're looking now. But again it's a journey. It's 91 00:05:06,000 --> 00:05:07,960 Speaker 1: a journey when we look at when you, like said, 92 00:05:08,160 --> 00:05:09,840 Speaker 1: you're a bank teller, you can go to work eight 93 00:05:09,880 --> 00:05:12,040 Speaker 1: to five. You if your company is doing well, you know, 94 00:05:12,560 --> 00:05:15,760 Speaker 1: you can probably have a life, maybe even a pension, 95 00:05:15,880 --> 00:05:19,720 Speaker 1: maybe maybe even health benefits, and you can raise it 96 00:05:19,800 --> 00:05:22,200 Speaker 1: and live your life. But when you're an entertainment when 97 00:05:22,200 --> 00:05:25,360 Speaker 1: you're in it, entrepreneur, that's what she is. She's an entrepreneur. 98 00:05:25,480 --> 00:05:28,000 Speaker 1: She's self imployed. She has to go out there and 99 00:05:28,080 --> 00:05:30,520 Speaker 1: she has people who represented her. She has PR people, 100 00:05:30,560 --> 00:05:33,720 Speaker 1: she has social media people, she has management, she has agencies. 101 00:05:34,120 --> 00:05:37,880 Speaker 1: How does one put that in perspective? Roxton? When you're 102 00:05:37,880 --> 00:05:40,480 Speaker 1: talking about your career, because it's your career and a 103 00:05:40,520 --> 00:05:42,039 Speaker 1: lot of people have to have a lot of ideas 104 00:05:42,080 --> 00:05:44,200 Speaker 1: of where they want to push it, how do you 105 00:05:44,240 --> 00:05:45,960 Speaker 1: do you push back? Or you said this is the 106 00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:47,800 Speaker 1: direction I want to go, or if you take people 107 00:05:47,839 --> 00:05:50,440 Speaker 1: advice it doesn't go that way, or you're disappointed it 108 00:05:50,520 --> 00:05:53,640 Speaker 1: yourself all you say, hey, that's the way it just goes. 109 00:05:54,200 --> 00:05:55,920 Speaker 1: You know. I think I think you just said the 110 00:05:56,000 --> 00:05:59,080 Speaker 1: key thing. It's your career. So yeah, you gotta have 111 00:05:59,120 --> 00:06:01,960 Speaker 1: a whole team if you're not working with that team 112 00:06:02,040 --> 00:06:04,760 Speaker 1: or for that team, because they work for you, but 113 00:06:04,839 --> 00:06:07,039 Speaker 1: you have to work for them also. You have to 114 00:06:07,080 --> 00:06:10,400 Speaker 1: come up with ideas and creatives and when they make 115 00:06:10,440 --> 00:06:13,799 Speaker 1: a meeting and and set something up, you have to 116 00:06:13,839 --> 00:06:16,320 Speaker 1: deliver and show up in that room. It's it's part 117 00:06:16,320 --> 00:06:19,480 Speaker 1: of your job too. Um yeah, I have an agent, 118 00:06:19,560 --> 00:06:21,760 Speaker 1: I have an attorney, and I have all of that stuff. 119 00:06:21,800 --> 00:06:24,200 Speaker 1: But if I don't make money for them, then why 120 00:06:24,200 --> 00:06:26,520 Speaker 1: would they keep me as a client? You know? And 121 00:06:26,760 --> 00:06:30,600 Speaker 1: vice versa. So it's something very important to consider and 122 00:06:30,600 --> 00:06:32,840 Speaker 1: think about when you're going into this career and just 123 00:06:32,920 --> 00:06:35,000 Speaker 1: as an entrepreneur, at the end of the day, it's 124 00:06:35,080 --> 00:06:39,400 Speaker 1: like you're constantly creating, You're constantly reinventing and thinking, and 125 00:06:39,440 --> 00:06:43,160 Speaker 1: they're just a branch to your trunk because you're the 126 00:06:43,200 --> 00:06:45,960 Speaker 1: trunk of the tree. But there are a branch of you. 127 00:06:46,560 --> 00:06:49,320 Speaker 1: Um but you still have to stay strong and continue 128 00:06:49,320 --> 00:06:53,800 Speaker 1: striving and surviving in this in this world. So um 129 00:06:53,839 --> 00:06:57,400 Speaker 1: so yeah, it's it could be challenging, but I'm an 130 00:06:57,400 --> 00:07:00,880 Speaker 1: amazing team and we work together. We come up with ideas. 131 00:07:01,640 --> 00:07:04,120 Speaker 1: You know, I create, they make it bigger for me, 132 00:07:04,680 --> 00:07:07,599 Speaker 1: bigger than I would ever imagine. And and so it's 133 00:07:07,640 --> 00:07:09,920 Speaker 1: a great synergy that I have with my team. We're 134 00:07:09,960 --> 00:07:15,520 Speaker 1: on Fox. Alter ego is big. It's big, It's uge, okay, 135 00:07:15,560 --> 00:07:19,080 Speaker 1: because it comes with the imagination too, because I like said, 136 00:07:19,080 --> 00:07:21,280 Speaker 1: you know, short hasn't premiered yet. I'm just talking to 137 00:07:21,360 --> 00:07:23,640 Speaker 1: my listeners who in this world out there, my viewers 138 00:07:23,680 --> 00:07:26,640 Speaker 1: and all this in our world because I'm on syndicated radio, 139 00:07:26,800 --> 00:07:29,560 Speaker 1: I'm on podcasts, I'm on video and YouTube, so it's 140 00:07:29,760 --> 00:07:32,880 Speaker 1: so many different lanes I'm talking to. But how much 141 00:07:32,920 --> 00:07:36,119 Speaker 1: it can you reveal as the host because we're seeing 142 00:07:36,160 --> 00:07:38,000 Speaker 1: people because I'm hearing I just read what the show 143 00:07:38,040 --> 00:07:40,560 Speaker 1: is about, and so do you what do you see 144 00:07:40,600 --> 00:07:43,720 Speaker 1: on stage? Because we're gonna see the avatar performing what 145 00:07:43,840 --> 00:07:45,720 Speaker 1: do you see on stage? And then we're gonna talk 146 00:07:45,720 --> 00:07:48,760 Speaker 1: about the judges. You know what's awesome is that what 147 00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:52,240 Speaker 1: I see and what I know everybody else at home 148 00:07:52,280 --> 00:07:54,560 Speaker 1: gets to see and no, so you get to know 149 00:07:54,640 --> 00:07:57,360 Speaker 1: the true people and you get to learn the true 150 00:07:57,400 --> 00:08:01,760 Speaker 1: stories behind the avatars, the that are controlling the avatars 151 00:08:02,000 --> 00:08:04,280 Speaker 1: um or alter egos I like to say our alter 152 00:08:04,400 --> 00:08:07,880 Speaker 1: egos um. You really get invested into the story. Are 153 00:08:08,040 --> 00:08:11,640 Speaker 1: judges Will i Am, Nick Lashay, Atlantis, Morrisette and Grimes. 154 00:08:11,680 --> 00:08:15,600 Speaker 1: They have no clue whatsoever who these people are. So 155 00:08:15,720 --> 00:08:19,040 Speaker 1: they're discovering each and every week as the show progresses 156 00:08:19,080 --> 00:08:21,679 Speaker 1: and goes on. And neither of those our live studio 157 00:08:21,760 --> 00:08:25,040 Speaker 1: audience as well, they have no clue either. So it's 158 00:08:25,080 --> 00:08:29,360 Speaker 1: it's a fun, fun reveal when they do happen. Um. 159 00:08:29,720 --> 00:08:32,160 Speaker 1: But you know, it's all about second chances and and 160 00:08:32,280 --> 00:08:35,800 Speaker 1: new opportunity for people. Uh, Everybody's like, well, what's different 161 00:08:35,840 --> 00:08:40,120 Speaker 1: from this singing competition show than singing competition shows? The story? 162 00:08:40,600 --> 00:08:45,199 Speaker 1: You know, you have people, uh like, let's just say 163 00:08:45,280 --> 00:08:49,440 Speaker 1: Jennifer Hudson didn't fit the American idol mold. Remember she 164 00:08:49,480 --> 00:08:52,800 Speaker 1: didn't win because they told her she didn't have the 165 00:08:52,800 --> 00:08:55,480 Speaker 1: full package. Why did she have a full package? You know? 166 00:08:55,840 --> 00:08:59,440 Speaker 1: We have contestants that have been told their entire life 167 00:08:59,480 --> 00:09:03,400 Speaker 1: some a somehow that they weren't the full package. So 168 00:09:03,600 --> 00:09:08,480 Speaker 1: we're judging people completely on their talent and their voice, 169 00:09:08,640 --> 00:09:12,480 Speaker 1: and that's what matters. The alter ego and and a 170 00:09:12,480 --> 00:09:14,600 Speaker 1: lot of senses has been liberating for a lot of 171 00:09:14,600 --> 00:09:18,000 Speaker 1: our contestants as well, because they may have a mental 172 00:09:18,040 --> 00:09:22,680 Speaker 1: disability or a physical disability that really prohibits them from 173 00:09:22,720 --> 00:09:27,640 Speaker 1: being on stage. So with this modernty i G technology, 174 00:09:27,679 --> 00:09:31,319 Speaker 1: they're able to fulfill their lifelong dream of being a 175 00:09:31,400 --> 00:09:34,400 Speaker 1: musician or being a singer and getting on that stage 176 00:09:35,000 --> 00:09:38,680 Speaker 1: through these alter egos. It's quite liberating to not be 177 00:09:38,840 --> 00:09:42,280 Speaker 1: judged through a disability or or a gender and be 178 00:09:42,480 --> 00:09:46,480 Speaker 1: binary or and just be free, you know. Um So 179 00:09:46,520 --> 00:09:48,080 Speaker 1: that's what I love about the show, and that's what 180 00:09:48,120 --> 00:09:50,400 Speaker 1: the show, that's what makes us different than this show. 181 00:09:50,440 --> 00:09:53,120 Speaker 1: And we're literally stepping into a new wave of how 182 00:09:53,280 --> 00:09:55,480 Speaker 1: music is going to be done and how music, how 183 00:09:55,600 --> 00:09:58,560 Speaker 1: music artists are are going to be you know, portrayed 184 00:09:58,559 --> 00:10:01,480 Speaker 1: as well.

I think that 218 00:12:01,960 --> 00:12:03,680 Speaker 1: when you you hit, you struck a nerve. When we 219 00:12:03,679 --> 00:12:06,280 Speaker 1: are positive there, when we was talking about the disability, 220 00:12:06,440 --> 00:12:09,040 Speaker 1: I never thought about that. That's not being promoted in 221 00:12:09,120 --> 00:12:11,840 Speaker 1: the commercials that you're just you know, they're promoting the 222 00:12:11,840 --> 00:12:15,240 Speaker 1: fact that you know, the whole alter ego, the avatar. 223 00:12:15,400 --> 00:12:17,720 Speaker 1: Somebody doesn't look like they will normally look in real life, 224 00:12:18,000 --> 00:12:21,240 Speaker 1: but it's immediately struck me. Somebody in the wheelchair and 225 00:12:21,280 --> 00:12:24,760 Speaker 1: I'm saying, somebody in the wheelchairs performing, or somebody on crutches, 226 00:12:24,880 --> 00:12:28,280 Speaker 1: or somebody you know, maybe have a leg, a prosthetic 227 00:12:28,400 --> 00:12:30,400 Speaker 1: leg and stuff like that. They didn't go out there, 228 00:12:30,559 --> 00:12:32,959 Speaker 1: but you wouldn't see that in the performance, and they 229 00:12:33,000 --> 00:12:36,080 Speaker 1: may be less aware of that from a standpoint of 230 00:12:36,120 --> 00:12:38,160 Speaker 1: how people might respond to them, and they can give 231 00:12:38,240 --> 00:12:41,920 Speaker 1: one knowing that's not the person that they see. They 232 00:12:41,960 --> 00:12:45,079 Speaker 1: see this avatar or this alter ego, which is kind 233 00:12:45,080 --> 00:12:47,440 Speaker 1: of brilliant when I think about it. Well, we're saying 234 00:12:47,480 --> 00:12:51,000 Speaker 1: you think about it. I mean, definitely on the physical standpoint, 235 00:12:51,080 --> 00:12:54,000 Speaker 1: but also on the mental standpoint too. We have great 236 00:12:54,040 --> 00:12:58,080 Speaker 1: fighters and great artists. I would say Muhammad Ali and 237 00:12:58,320 --> 00:13:01,520 Speaker 1: uh Michael J. Fox just just for a perfect example 238 00:13:01,600 --> 00:13:04,440 Speaker 1: that when they're doing their art and their craft, you 239 00:13:04,440 --> 00:13:06,880 Speaker 1: would never ever know that they had some type of 240 00:13:06,920 --> 00:13:10,600 Speaker 1: disability into the background. Right, So we have the same 241 00:13:10,640 --> 00:13:13,200 Speaker 1: situation with some of our contestants where they have a 242 00:13:13,240 --> 00:13:19,320 Speaker 1: mental disability that may prohibit them to be in the industry, 243 00:13:19,400 --> 00:13:22,000 Speaker 1: but when they're on stage, you would never ever know 244 00:13:22,120 --> 00:13:25,760 Speaker 1: that they suffer from an illness or or or This 245 00:13:25,920 --> 00:13:31,080 Speaker 1: block alter ego is definitely giving people the opportunity to 246 00:13:31,120 --> 00:13:35,640 Speaker 1: not be judged in this judgmental world that we live in. Oh, 247 00:13:35,720 --> 00:13:38,559 Speaker 1: that's powerful. That's that's very, very powerful. And then now 248 00:13:38,600 --> 00:13:41,800 Speaker 1: that's your premiers betweenty tewod which is a William stay 249 00:13:41,800 --> 00:13:47,240 Speaker 1: in third and back to back. It's back to back. 250 00:13:47,360 --> 00:13:50,360 Speaker 1: September twenty two is our first episode. In September twenty 251 00:13:50,400 --> 00:13:52,600 Speaker 1: three is our second episode. So you're not gonna watch 252 00:13:52,679 --> 00:13:54,720 Speaker 1: two of the same shows back to back. You're gonna 253 00:13:54,760 --> 00:13:57,640 Speaker 1: say two different episodes, right, And so the reason I 254 00:13:57,640 --> 00:14:00,520 Speaker 1: step back because you've been out there. You you you 255 00:14:00,520 --> 00:14:02,600 Speaker 1: you're in a good way when I say that. As 256 00:14:02,640 --> 00:14:06,360 Speaker 1: far as own television, prime time, this is Fox. This 257 00:14:06,400 --> 00:14:09,760 Speaker 1: is another level of millions of people coming to your life. 258 00:14:09,840 --> 00:14:12,400 Speaker 1: You know, how do you take it all in? Because 259 00:14:12,440 --> 00:14:14,720 Speaker 1: you you're very popular and social media believe you have 260 00:14:14,760 --> 00:14:17,400 Speaker 1: a million Instagram followers. You know, that's one of the 261 00:14:17,480 --> 00:14:19,320 Speaker 1: places that went because I did my little research. We're 262 00:14:19,320 --> 00:14:21,520 Speaker 1: gonna talk about this booty thing in a minute, but 263 00:14:21,600 --> 00:14:24,760 Speaker 1: let's stick with alter ego? Now, how does that? How 264 00:14:24,760 --> 00:14:26,680 Speaker 1: do you deal with that? You know, because of the 265 00:14:26,680 --> 00:14:29,280 Speaker 1: fact that it's so many athletes and I have to 266 00:14:29,320 --> 00:14:33,960 Speaker 1: put this being traumatized by negative responses, are being traumatized 267 00:14:34,000 --> 00:14:37,040 Speaker 1: by the whole aspect of success. Like you said earlier, 268 00:14:37,040 --> 00:14:39,480 Speaker 1: you know, Rashwan, I really was down in the adults 269 00:14:39,480 --> 00:14:41,560 Speaker 1: about where I was at in my life and then 270 00:14:41,560 --> 00:14:43,840 Speaker 1: this opportunity that came to me and it put me 271 00:14:43,880 --> 00:14:46,000 Speaker 1: back out there in the forefront. How do you deal 272 00:14:46,040 --> 00:14:48,520 Speaker 1: with that? Because this is big for you, but it 273 00:14:48,600 --> 00:14:50,920 Speaker 1: also means that there are other opportunities you have to 274 00:14:50,960 --> 00:14:54,200 Speaker 1: be seeking to keep that emotional high. So you're premiering 275 00:14:54,240 --> 00:14:57,880 Speaker 1: on the twenty second and three, two separate episodes, back 276 00:14:57,920 --> 00:15:00,560 Speaker 1: to back episode they take twelve of them talk about 277 00:15:00,600 --> 00:15:02,480 Speaker 1: this roller coaster ride leading up to you. Because you're 278 00:15:02,480 --> 00:15:04,920 Speaker 1: doing a lot of media, You're looking fantastic and you're 279 00:15:04,960 --> 00:15:08,560 Speaker 1: the one right now, you're the host. It's it's been again. 280 00:15:08,640 --> 00:15:11,800 Speaker 1: It's been a dream come true. Uh. It literally was 281 00:15:12,360 --> 00:15:15,200 Speaker 1: my vision board and it was my manifestation and I 282 00:15:15,480 --> 00:15:18,000 Speaker 1: like dreamt of this show and I've dreamt of this day. 283 00:15:18,880 --> 00:15:22,040 Speaker 1: So I'm super excited for everybody to check out alter 284 00:15:22,200 --> 00:15:26,920 Speaker 1: egoal Fox. Uh, it's just next level and fun. Like 285 00:15:27,080 --> 00:15:31,000 Speaker 1: I love every opportunity that I've had my career to 286 00:15:31,080 --> 00:15:34,720 Speaker 1: be fun. Um and this is by far the most 287 00:15:35,320 --> 00:15:38,960 Speaker 1: very long time. So um. Yeah. I don't know what 288 00:15:39,000 --> 00:15:41,600 Speaker 1: else to say about it because it's it's what I do. 289 00:15:41,440 --> 00:15:43,760 Speaker 1: I do. Because we kind of glossed over these judges 290 00:15:43,800 --> 00:15:46,040 Speaker 1: and you mentioned them, and I think I need to 291 00:15:46,080 --> 00:15:48,200 Speaker 1: go back and take Nick to Shade Grabs where I 292 00:15:48,240 --> 00:15:52,480 Speaker 1: am Alan's more set. These are you know, really, we've 293 00:15:52,480 --> 00:15:55,400 Speaker 1: just seen this industry where and I'm not saying anything negative, 294 00:15:55,400 --> 00:15:58,520 Speaker 1: where these people are are touring professionals. These people are 295 00:15:58,560 --> 00:16:01,120 Speaker 1: successful in their fields and now they're on the show 296 00:16:01,200 --> 00:16:04,200 Speaker 1: like this together one time. How did you create your 297 00:16:04,240 --> 00:16:07,800 Speaker 1: relationships and how do you communicate with them? Because, like 298 00:16:07,840 --> 00:16:11,720 Speaker 1: you said, they're looking at animation as we're looking at animation, 299 00:16:12,320 --> 00:16:14,640 Speaker 1: and then they got to react to that. Where do 300 00:16:14,720 --> 00:16:17,920 Speaker 1: they put their judgment hats on? I guess I should say, 301 00:16:18,040 --> 00:16:23,520 Speaker 1: or can you reveal that everybody was everybody was authentically themselves. 302 00:16:23,600 --> 00:16:26,560 Speaker 1: I'll say that, and and there was a mutual level 303 00:16:26,600 --> 00:16:30,800 Speaker 1: of respect across the board, you know there. I'll say 304 00:16:30,800 --> 00:16:33,000 Speaker 1: this Fox had the best of the best when it 305 00:16:33,080 --> 00:16:38,000 Speaker 1: came to this absolute from from producers to music director 306 00:16:38,240 --> 00:16:41,080 Speaker 1: Adam black Stone, who if you don't know who Adam 307 00:16:41,080 --> 00:16:44,800 Speaker 1: black Stone is, you just think of you know, uh, 308 00:16:45,000 --> 00:16:48,840 Speaker 1: Quest Love Times. Okay, he's like up there with Quests 309 00:16:49,160 --> 00:16:52,200 Speaker 1: and Um, Will I Am and Rhymes. They live in 310 00:16:52,360 --> 00:16:58,360 Speaker 1: this futuristic technology world. You know, this is their house, 311 00:16:58,480 --> 00:17:01,320 Speaker 1: this is their forefront wal house. Like sometimes I didn't 312 00:17:01,320 --> 00:17:04,800 Speaker 1: think I was intellectually capable of having conversations with them, 313 00:17:04,880 --> 00:17:08,040 Speaker 1: but this is what they live breathe by. So there 314 00:17:08,119 --> 00:17:10,520 Speaker 1: was no better way or better judges to have on 315 00:17:10,560 --> 00:17:13,360 Speaker 1: the panel than Will I Am. With his musical background, 316 00:17:13,400 --> 00:17:16,240 Speaker 1: he's iconic, the black Eyed Peas.

She's into technology. 318 00:17:20,680 --> 00:17:23,920 Speaker 1: She's an amazing artist and producer as well. The young 319 00:17:23,960 --> 00:17:28,440 Speaker 1: people love her. She's a gamer. Um Atlantis Moore said, iconic. 320 00:17:29,119 --> 00:17:32,800 Speaker 1: She knows music.
