Speaker 1: Lauren de Rosa. Now, this is your Deli dig on

00:00:15,960 --> 00:00:19,720
Speaker 1: all things pop culture, entertainment, news, and all of the

8
00:00:19,800 --> 00:00:23,720
Speaker 1: conversations that shake the room. Baby. Now today we are

9
00:00:23,760 --> 00:00:26,799
Speaker 1: getting on into some things. We're gonna get right on

10
00:00:27,000 --> 00:00:31,000
Speaker 1: into the latest because we got a lot to talk about.

11
00:00:31,440 --> 00:00:35,720
Speaker 1: We have some updates. So Tiffany Hattish and Jason Lee,

12
00:00:36,040 --> 00:00:40,280
Speaker 1: Hollywood Unlocked founder, are not having a baby. I rushed

13
00:00:40,440 --> 00:00:43,120
Speaker 1: to get that out into say that because I've been

14
00:00:43,159 --> 00:00:47,680
Speaker 1: trying to figure this out for It's been weeks. So

15
00:00:48,760 --> 00:00:53,120
Speaker 1: let me just back on up right. August fourth, Tiffany

16
00:00:53,159 --> 00:00:57,120
Speaker 1: Hattish and Jason Lee posted these photos to their Instagram.

17
00:00:57,640 --> 00:01:00,240
Speaker 1: It was a photo of Tiffany and Jason and a

18
00:01:00,280 --> 00:01:05,920
Speaker 1: baby in Tiffany Hattish's hand, and of course all of

19
00:01:06,040 --> 00:01:11,120
Speaker 1: us and Jason's there, They're smiling, Jason's holding a baby shouler.

20
00:01:11,520 --> 00:01:15,000
Speaker 1: So we're all looking like, what is this giving right now?

21
00:01:15,080 --> 00:01:19,280
Speaker 1: Like what is happening? Like did y'all go adopt a

22
00:01:19,360 --> 00:01:21,760
Speaker 1: kid or have a Sarahgate have a kid. Not the

23
00:01:21,840 --> 00:01:25,200
Speaker 1: only reason to be fair because Jason Lee is a

24
00:01:25,319 --> 00:01:28,560
Speaker 1: very openly gay man, so for those who don't know

25
00:01:28,680 --> 00:01:31,640
Speaker 1: him to be fair. The only reason why we even

26
00:01:31,680 --> 00:01:34,960
Speaker 1: assume this is because a little minute ago, Jason Lee

27
00:01:35,520 --> 00:01:38,959
Speaker 1: and Tiffany Hattish were having a conversation and they were

28
00:01:39,080 --> 00:01:41,840
Speaker 1: talking about Tiffany Hattish wanting to have a baby and

29
00:01:41,920 --> 00:01:45,080
Speaker 1: having the baby with Jason Lee. Let's take a listen

30
00:01:45,080 --> 00:01:45,399
Speaker 1: to that.

31
00:01:46,360 --> 00:01:48,000
Speaker 3: You said you would give me a kid. Are you

32
00:01:48,240 --> 00:01:49,040
Speaker 3: serious about that?

33
00:01:50,400 --> 00:01:52,360
Speaker 2: I wanted to talk to you about the cost of

34
00:01:52,760 --> 00:01:54,200
Speaker 2: because I said I wanted to do it the old

35
00:01:54,200 --> 00:01:57,040
Speaker 2: fashion where you said no, So I want to talk

36
00:01:57,040 --> 00:01:57,720
Speaker 2: to you about.

37
00:01:57,520 --> 00:02:03,480
Speaker 3: The cost so long, now we gotta do wait, I

38
00:02:03,480 --> 00:02:04,280
Speaker 3: don't like that word.

39
00:02:04,560 --> 00:02:07,320
Speaker 2: Okay, we gotta, we gotta, we gotta do the pound.

40
00:02:07,480 --> 00:02:10,000
Speaker 3: Okay, wait, So here's the deals. And I had an

41
00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:12,880
Speaker 3: agreement like back when I was nineteen, that we were

42
00:02:12,960 --> 00:02:16,440
Speaker 3: vacating that world, and since then we've like, it's sort

43
00:02:16,440 --> 00:02:18,880
Speaker 3: of like my my mother, we just packed up and left.

44
00:02:18,880 --> 00:02:22,160
Speaker 3: It never came back, right, So that wasn't funny, right

45
00:02:22,360 --> 00:02:27,880
Speaker 3: it is? So, hey, mom, but no, seriously, Yeah, after

46
00:02:27,960 --> 00:02:30,200
Speaker 3: I walked away from Vagina, I just like it was

47
00:02:30,240 --> 00:02:35,040
Speaker 3: like that STD's pain, sorrows, shooting, violent drugs, Like I

48
00:02:35,080 --> 00:02:37,119
Speaker 3: don't want to be around none of that anymore. Yeah,

49
00:02:37,160 --> 00:02:38,680
Speaker 3: but I still want a kid now.

50
00:02:38,720 --> 00:02:42,880
Speaker 1: Ya could tell he's openly gave men, right, very openly

51
00:02:43,040 --> 00:02:46,040
Speaker 1: gave men. Okay, a nothing swinging back over this way

52
00:02:46,080 --> 00:02:49,320
Speaker 1: at all about Jason Lee. So when people when when

53
00:02:49,360 --> 00:02:52,960
Speaker 1: the picture was posted, naturally people thought like, Okay, they

54
00:02:52,960 --> 00:02:58,720
Speaker 1: did it. They either got a surrogate, they either adopted,

55
00:02:59,360 --> 00:03:02,960
Speaker 1: because it's no way and I mean not a way

56
00:03:03,200 --> 00:03:07,640
Speaker 1: in the devil's hell that Jason Lee put anything of

57
00:03:07,720 --> 00:03:10,400
Speaker 1: his inside of her to make a baby. Also, too,

58
00:03:11,120 --> 00:03:14,120
Speaker 1: we've been seeing Tiffany Hattish and she hasn't been pregnant,

59
00:03:14,320 --> 00:03:18,320
Speaker 1: so that also was a thing. But yes, so this

60
00:03:18,440 --> 00:03:22,520
Speaker 1: photo had everybody going. When I tell y'all, I literally

61
00:03:22,560 --> 00:03:26,480
Speaker 1: had people texting me like Laura, what's up? And I'm like,

62
00:03:27,800 --> 00:03:31,679
Speaker 1: what do you mean? Like everything cool? What do you

63
00:03:31,720 --> 00:03:34,920
Speaker 1: mean it's Jason Lee pregnant? And I'm like, it's Jason

64
00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:40,240
Speaker 1: Lee pregnant? You mean it's Tiffany Hattish? Did Tiffany Hattish

65
00:03:40,320 --> 00:03:42,840
Speaker 1: have a baby? By Jason Lee. Yeah, what's going on?

66
00:03:43,920 --> 00:03:46,160
Speaker 1: And then also too, we never talked about it, so

67
00:03:46,600 --> 00:03:48,120
Speaker 1: I didn't talk about it here on the Latest with

68
00:03:48,160 --> 00:03:50,360
Speaker 1: Lona Rosa. We didn't talk about it on the breakfast

69
00:03:50,400 --> 00:03:52,200
Speaker 1: club we were going to one day, but I think

70
00:03:52,240 --> 00:03:55,560
Speaker 1: we just didn't get to it. I text Jason when

71
00:03:55,560 --> 00:03:59,680
Speaker 1: the photo dropped and I'm like, Yo, what's up, what's

72
00:03:59,680 --> 00:04:03,160
Speaker 1: going on here? And I sent the photo. All he

73
00:04:03,320 --> 00:04:07,680
Speaker 1: did was send me back a bottle and I'm like,

74
00:04:08,320 --> 00:04:11,960
Speaker 1: what does that mean? He didn't say anything else. And

75
00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:14,960
Speaker 1: then I was leaving Atlanta. I went and spoke at

76
00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:18,200
Speaker 1: the Podcast Summer in Atlanta. Shout out to the Podcast

77
00:04:18,200 --> 00:04:20,880
Speaker 1: Summer in Dshans for bringing me down. I had an

78
00:04:20,920 --> 00:04:23,680
Speaker 1: amazing time. It was so up put together, but I

79
00:04:23,720 --> 00:04:26,560
Speaker 1: was there. Jason Lee also spoke there as well too.

80
00:04:27,040 --> 00:04:28,920
Speaker 1: And when we were leaving flying back to New York,

81
00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:31,479
Speaker 1: Jason Lee was on my flight. We actually were like

82
00:04:31,560 --> 00:04:33,960
Speaker 1: in the same row, so we just sat next to

83
00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:37,000
Speaker 1: each other and I was asking him then, I'm like,

84
00:04:37,480 --> 00:04:39,560
Speaker 1: what's going on. You're gonna tell me what's up or not?

85
00:04:40,760 --> 00:04:43,640
Speaker 1: And He's like, I don't talk about kids. I don't

86
00:04:43,640 --> 00:04:47,480
Speaker 1: discuss kids. Child Jason Lee and Tiffany Hattters was on

87
00:04:47,560 --> 00:04:50,520
Speaker 1: Jimmy Kimmel. They talked about kids and they are not

88
00:04:50,600 --> 00:04:52,760
Speaker 1: having one, nor do they have one right now that

89
00:04:52,800 --> 00:04:55,359
Speaker 1: we know of. Let's take a listen.

90
00:04:55,560 --> 00:04:58,000
Speaker 2: What did you think of this whole baby Fiasca.

91
00:04:58,080 --> 00:04:58,520
Speaker 1: I don't know.

92
00:04:58,600 --> 00:05:00,960
Speaker 3: The whole world has lost their mind on this beautiful baby.

93
00:05:01,240 --> 00:05:03,360
Speaker 2: We just took a picture with a baby and then

94
00:05:05,080 --> 00:05:07,200
Speaker 2: and then that went crazy. So now we got a

95
00:05:07,240 --> 00:05:10,640
Speaker 2: god baby, we do. Yeah, I went ahead and made

96
00:05:10,680 --> 00:05:11,520
Speaker 2: it our god baby.

97
00:05:11,720 --> 00:05:15,440
Speaker 3: Okay, great? You and daddy, oh thank you. This is

98
00:05:15,440 --> 00:05:17,880
Speaker 3: the first time both of us being foster former foster

99
00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:20,719
Speaker 3: kids that were actually selecting to choose a baby that

100
00:05:21,200 --> 00:05:23,520
Speaker 3: wasn't ours. But that's why adoption is important.

101
00:05:23,640 --> 00:05:30,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, adoption is important. It was very important, Jason. The

102
00:05:30,600 --> 00:05:32,640
Speaker 2: offer still is on the table if you want to

103
00:05:32,640 --> 00:05:35,600
Speaker 2: make a real baby together. Okay, we'll have a meet

104
00:05:36,120 --> 00:05:38,800
Speaker 2: our baby. Yeah. You know, I'm traditional.

105
00:05:40,040 --> 00:05:47,480
Speaker 3: And I'm still gay.

106
00:05:45,480 --> 00:05:49,359
Speaker 1: Y'all not me in the whole word world thought they

107
00:05:49,440 --> 00:05:53,040
Speaker 1: might have adopted a kid and it had us going, too, right,

108
00:05:53,120 --> 00:05:55,520
Speaker 1: They really had us going. I do like the plug

109
00:05:56,040 --> 00:05:58,760
Speaker 1: of you know, the whole like adoption thing, and you know,

110
00:05:58,839 --> 00:06:01,760
Speaker 1: plugging adopting kids. My mom was a foster mom for

111
00:06:01,800 --> 00:06:03,800
Speaker 1: about like ten or eleven years out of my life.

112
00:06:04,320 --> 00:06:06,760
Speaker 1: So my God, I don't call them my foster brothers

113
00:06:06,800 --> 00:06:08,479
Speaker 1: and sisters. I call them my god brothers and my

114
00:06:08,480 --> 00:06:11,160
Speaker 1: god sisters, or just my sisters and my brothers. Depends

115
00:06:11,160 --> 00:06:13,520
Speaker 1: on who I'm talking to. But some of them are

116
00:06:13,720 --> 00:06:16,400
Speaker 1: listening to the podcast, hey, y'all. But a lot of

117
00:06:16,440 --> 00:06:20,479
Speaker 1: them spent anywhere from like shoot three to four to

118
00:06:20,640 --> 00:06:23,600
Speaker 1: maybe ten years with us, with me and my brother

119
00:06:23,640 --> 00:06:25,960
Speaker 1: growing up in the same household as us, so and

120
00:06:26,040 --> 00:06:29,240
Speaker 1: my mom always did everything she could to try and

121
00:06:29,360 --> 00:06:32,160
Speaker 1: keep families together. So like if a foster kid came

122
00:06:32,200 --> 00:06:33,520
Speaker 1: to our house and she found out that you had

123
00:06:33,560 --> 00:06:36,200
Speaker 1: like a brother and a sister somewhere, she would request

124
00:06:36,240 --> 00:06:38,520
Speaker 1: from the social workers that we find you know your

125
00:06:38,520 --> 00:06:40,320
Speaker 1: other siblings and they get brought to our house. Things

126
00:06:40,360 --> 00:06:43,360
Speaker 1: like that. Just because my mom used to always talk

127
00:06:43,400 --> 00:06:46,960
Speaker 1: to me about just everything that children in the system

128
00:06:47,000 --> 00:06:50,520
Speaker 1: were going through. And Jason Lee and Tiphany Hattish were

129
00:06:50,520 --> 00:06:55,120
Speaker 1: both adopted, they talked a bit about that here and yeah,

130
00:06:55,160 --> 00:06:58,240
Speaker 1: so just you know, them being able to use the moment,

131
00:06:58,600 --> 00:07:01,839
Speaker 1: you know, in the attention to talk about the importance

132
00:07:01,839 --> 00:07:05,840
Speaker 1: of adopting kids, and you know, raising foster children, and

133
00:07:05,960 --> 00:07:08,720
Speaker 1: you know all those things. Don't little spent on that.

134
00:07:09,040 --> 00:07:13,280
Speaker 1: But Jason Lee, Tiffany Hattish, y'all have me going, Okay,

135
00:07:13,480 --> 00:07:15,520
Speaker 1: I really thought I was sitting next to a faba.

136
00:07:16,360 --> 00:07:20,520
Speaker 1: We'll be sitting on that plane now. In other news,

00:07:35,680 --> 00:07:38,400
Speaker 1: start to finish. It was about an hour long conversation.

142
00:07:38,960 --> 00:07:41,560
Speaker 1: They got into the Monique and Tyler Perry things and

143
00:07:41,600 --> 00:07:43,240
Speaker 1: we talked about that a bit on the Breakfast Club

144
00:07:43,240 --> 00:07:48,760

00:07:52,240 --> 00:07:54,120
Speaker 1: where they are. Now, let's take a lesson to Monique.

147
00:07:54,320 --> 00:07:58,000
Speaker 4: Well, people shout as loud when they find out we're healing.

148
00:07:59,280 --> 00:08:02,160
Speaker 4: No people do the shows about Monique and her son

149
00:08:02,320 --> 00:08:04,960
Speaker 4: when they found out we've been talking, Will people now

150
00:08:05,040 --> 00:08:08,160
Speaker 4: shout and say, oh my god? Because we thrive on

151
00:08:08,480 --> 00:08:11,560
Speaker 4: what we believe to be negative. When it comes to

152
00:08:11,600 --> 00:08:16,119
Speaker 4: my son, that's mine. Yep, that is mine all day long.

153
00:08:16,440 --> 00:08:20,440
Speaker 4: That is my child. So whatever we go through, that's mine,

154
00:08:21,080 --> 00:08:23,600
Speaker 4: that's mine. What I will say is I let my

155
00:08:23,680 --> 00:08:26,920
Speaker 4: ego get in the way. I will say that publicly.

156
00:08:27,360 --> 00:08:30,000
Speaker 4: And I had to take that down because I had

157
00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:34,640
Speaker 4: to say, Monique, that is yours baby. He's thirty four

158
00:08:34,720 --> 00:08:39,520
Speaker 4: years old, you're fifty seven. You know, better take it down.

159
00:08:40,320 --> 00:08:42,760
Speaker 4: So for all the ones asking you about me and

160
00:08:42,840 --> 00:08:47,199
Speaker 4: my son, we're healing and I'm grateful and I prayed

161
00:08:47,240 --> 00:08:49,600
Speaker 4: for that healing. Please bring them back to me.

162
00:08:50,520 --> 00:08:54,160
Speaker 1: Oh now, this was big for me to hear because

163
00:08:55,200 --> 00:08:59,280
Speaker 1: Monique is not a person to I wouldn't say Monique

164
00:08:59,280 --> 00:09:00,560
Speaker 1: is not a person to a man when she's wrong,

165
00:09:00,600 --> 00:09:05,960
Speaker 1: I would not say that. But to hear her say

166
00:09:06,840 --> 00:09:10,079
Speaker 1: it was my ego. I think it's hard for anybody,

167
00:09:10,120 --> 00:09:14,719
Speaker 1: whether you're Monique or not, to admit when you may

168
00:09:14,720 --> 00:09:16,640
Speaker 1: have added to the problem or you were a part

169
00:09:16,679 --> 00:09:19,319
Speaker 1: of the problem. But to hear her say what she said,

170
00:09:19,360 --> 00:09:22,920
Speaker 1: I'm like, man, because a lot of people try and

171
00:09:22,960 --> 00:09:26,400
Speaker 1: make it seem like Monique is this person who just

172
00:09:26,480 --> 00:09:29,920
Speaker 1: loves a problem and loves the drama. Because when she

173
00:09:29,960 --> 00:09:32,000
Speaker 1: does speak about things she's been through, whether it's been

174
00:09:32,040 --> 00:09:35,480
Speaker 1: with Oprah, and she talked about that, Let's take a listen, Oprah.

175
00:09:35,520 --> 00:09:39,880
Speaker 4: I'm not going anywhere until y'all take accountability and fix it.

176
00:09:40,400 --> 00:09:44,000
Speaker 4: Y'all messed with my livelihood, which messes with my family.

177
00:09:44,440 --> 00:09:46,360
Speaker 4: Never would I do that to anyone.

178
00:09:46,640 --> 00:09:50,080
Speaker 1: Or the Tyler Perry incident. She talked about that, Let's

179
00:09:50,120 --> 00:09:50,720
Speaker 1: take a listen.

180
00:09:51,080 --> 00:09:54,400
Speaker 4: One of the biggest entertainers in the world is Tyler Perry,

181
00:09:54,920 --> 00:09:57,480
Speaker 4: and Tyler Perry told a lie on me, and that

182
00:09:57,559 --> 00:10:01,480
Speaker 4: lie costs me twelve years of my career twelve And

183
00:10:02,120 --> 00:10:04,719
Speaker 4: I know that you work for that man. But as

184
00:10:04,760 --> 00:10:06,320
Speaker 4: I told you before, and I'm gonna say it again,

185
00:10:06,440 --> 00:10:10,600
Speaker 4: until he fixes it, I will not stop because that's

186
00:10:10,640 --> 00:10:14,439
Speaker 4: how the monster is created. We're too afraid, what too scared,

187
00:10:14,640 --> 00:10:17,000
Speaker 4: We're too fearful that you're gonna take something from me.

188
00:10:17,160 --> 00:10:19,760
Speaker 4: So I'm just not gonna say anything. Harvey Weinstein is

189
00:10:19,800 --> 00:10:23,480
Speaker 4: where he's in jail now. That's been going on for decades,

190
00:10:23,800 --> 00:10:27,080
Speaker 4: but everybody said let it go, don't say nothing, which

191
00:10:27,120 --> 00:10:30,400
Speaker 4: allowed that man to do more damage to women over

192
00:10:30,480 --> 00:10:33,120
Speaker 4: the decades. I as long as I can help it.

193
00:10:33,440 --> 00:10:35,240
Speaker 4: I'm saying, Tyler, her, you will not do this to

194
00:10:35,320 --> 00:10:37,920
Speaker 4: another as long as I can help it, because you

195
00:10:38,040 --> 00:10:41,480
Speaker 4: told a lie and you feel like you have the

196
00:10:41,520 --> 00:10:44,800
Speaker 4: God complex. So I ain't gotta fix it. Either you'll

197
00:10:44,840 --> 00:10:47,520
Speaker 4: fix it in life or you'll be dealt with in death.

198
00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:51,120
Speaker 4: It's totally up to you. But I'm not going nowhere.

199
00:10:51,480 --> 00:10:54,040
Speaker 1: Or anything dealer with her. Me and her me and

200
00:10:54,120 --> 00:10:57,079
Speaker 1: her me and her man. Do not play with her daddy. Okay,

201
00:10:57,840 --> 00:11:01,160
Speaker 1: her daddy that I'm referring to is her who she's

202
00:11:01,200 --> 00:11:03,600
Speaker 1: been married to for years and years and years at

203
00:11:03,640 --> 00:11:06,080
Speaker 1: this point. But I found out on this podcast that

204
00:11:06,200 --> 00:11:10,680
Speaker 1: Monique and her husband were actually friends. There were roommates. First,

205
00:11:11,240 --> 00:11:13,439
Speaker 1: crazy story, let's take a listen to that.

206
00:11:13,840 --> 00:11:17,000
Speaker 4: If you knock on my door, I'm gonna let you in.

207
00:11:18,240 --> 00:11:21,120
Speaker 4: She knocked on my door because she did an interview,

208
00:11:21,280 --> 00:11:23,600
Speaker 4: and we're talking about our sister Tiffany had it. She

209
00:11:23,640 --> 00:11:26,760
Speaker 4: did an interview with GQ magazine, and some kind of way,

210
00:11:26,840 --> 00:11:30,120
Speaker 4: the conversation got to Monique and she said, I don't

211
00:11:30,120 --> 00:11:31,080
Speaker 4: have that husband.

212
00:11:30,800 --> 00:11:32,400
Speaker 1: Of hers like she got.

213
00:11:32,760 --> 00:11:36,720
Speaker 4: Wait a minute, sister, you rung the bell, you said

214
00:11:36,760 --> 00:11:38,480
Speaker 4: ding dong, And I say, come on, in and get

215
00:11:38,480 --> 00:11:40,600
Speaker 4: this pound. Okay, let's talk about it. Come on here

216
00:11:40,600 --> 00:11:42,720
Speaker 4: and get a slice of it. And I didn't say

217
00:11:42,760 --> 00:11:45,400
Speaker 4: it to be cruel. I said it to be factual.

218
00:11:45,880 --> 00:11:48,520
Speaker 4: When you have somebody loving you, you're not gonna get

219
00:11:48,559 --> 00:11:51,000
Speaker 4: DUIs because that man is loving you. I was gonna say, hey,

220
00:11:51,120 --> 00:11:54,640
Speaker 4: you've had too much. You're not driving. That man is

221
00:11:54,720 --> 00:11:56,080
Speaker 4: loving you. Was going to say, who whoa whoa wa,

222
00:11:56,160 --> 00:11:58,040
Speaker 4: what kind of videos are you making that looks like

223
00:11:58,080 --> 00:12:01,000
Speaker 4: you could appear to be grooming the child. It is

224
00:12:01,080 --> 00:12:04,280
Speaker 4: things that when you are being loved, you get pulled

225
00:12:04,320 --> 00:12:06,920
Speaker 4: back from all of the foolishness, You get pulled back

226
00:12:06,960 --> 00:12:10,520
Speaker 4: from all of the the superstarter I'm gonna start. You

227
00:12:10,559 --> 00:12:14,000
Speaker 4: get pulled back from that because you're enjoying being loved.

228
00:12:14,160 --> 00:12:16,600
Speaker 4: So whyever would you put yourself in a position to

229
00:12:16,760 --> 00:12:18,080
Speaker 4: sacrifice your life.

230
00:12:18,400 --> 00:12:20,880
Speaker 1: So whenever moniquets talking about these things, people love to

231
00:12:20,920 --> 00:12:24,960
Speaker 1: make it seem like she's this like negative Nancy, this

232
00:12:25,080 --> 00:12:29,320
Speaker 1: drama queen, this oh my god. But to hear her

233
00:12:29,360 --> 00:12:32,480
Speaker 1: take accountability in that moment, it's I mean, it's her son, right.

234
00:12:32,559 --> 00:12:36,560
Speaker 1: So I think that's a different level of conversation when

235
00:12:36,600 --> 00:12:39,559
Speaker 1: you're talking about your own child. But what was going

236
00:12:39,559 --> 00:12:42,319
Speaker 1: down with Monique and her son did play out publicly.

237
00:12:42,840 --> 00:12:45,920
Speaker 1: So to hear her take that accountability publicly, I thought

238
00:12:46,040 --> 00:12:48,120
Speaker 1: was a really big deal. But I mean, that's all

239
00:12:48,120 --> 00:12:51,320
Speaker 1: she's been asking for, you know, after legend and things

240
00:12:51,320 --> 00:12:53,840
Speaker 1: that she alleged about all the people we just mentioned,

241
00:12:53,920 --> 00:12:56,920
Speaker 1: like an Oprah or Tyler Perry from the beginning. So

242
00:12:56,960 --> 00:12:59,920
Speaker 1: to see her do it, I was like, I like that.

243
00:13:00,320 --> 00:13:02,319
Speaker 1: I like this Monique, like you know, when she was

244
00:13:02,320 --> 00:13:04,800
Speaker 1: talking about her son, Like this Monique right here, that

245
00:13:04,960 --> 00:13:07,280
Speaker 1: is the mom that is protective, that is about her

246
00:13:07,320 --> 00:13:09,480
Speaker 1: family and her bit and her sweet babies and all

247
00:13:09,559 --> 00:13:12,520
Speaker 1: her sweet babies. This is what I like right here,

248
00:13:12,600 --> 00:13:16,640
Speaker 1: because typically I think the conversation with her is always

249
00:13:16,640 --> 00:13:21,160
Speaker 1: about what's done to her and not that. I mean,

250
00:13:21,200 --> 00:13:23,000
Speaker 1: I don't know all of the ins and outs of

251
00:13:23,040 --> 00:13:25,960
Speaker 1: the situation with her son, so I don't know what

252
00:13:26,200 --> 00:13:28,720
Speaker 1: was done to who in that situation. But you know,

253
00:13:28,800 --> 00:13:31,960
Speaker 1: just to hear somebody take accountability, it's just it's a

254
00:13:32,000 --> 00:13:34,120
Speaker 1: good thing to hear witness. And I think that the

255
00:13:34,200 --> 00:13:36,440
Speaker 1: reason why I say that is because it represents a

256
00:13:36,520 --> 00:13:41,240
Speaker 1: really good a really good place of like peace or

257
00:13:41,280 --> 00:13:43,920
Speaker 1: healing like when you are good in a situation, you're

258
00:13:43,960 --> 00:13:46,080
Speaker 1: able to look back and say, Okay, here's how I

259
00:13:46,160 --> 00:13:56,040
Speaker 1: might have contributed to that situation. Let's not gonna send

260
00:13:56,040 --> 00:13:59,400
Speaker 1: a Monique's issue with her son Shaloon, because back in

261
00:13:59,480 --> 00:14:02,520
Speaker 1: February twenty twenty four, Monique sat down with Shanna Sharp

262
00:14:02,559 --> 00:14:06,200
Speaker 1: on Club Chase Shay and talked about their relationship and

263
00:14:06,240 --> 00:14:08,440
Speaker 1: that was the down spiral of the things.

264
00:14:08,559 --> 00:14:14,040
Speaker 5: Let's take a listen my oldest son, Shelan, and this

265
00:14:14,080 --> 00:14:17,400
Speaker 5: is what I want to say to this. There's some

266
00:14:17,480 --> 00:14:19,800
Speaker 5: people that are saying, oh, you should be ashamed of

267
00:14:19,840 --> 00:14:23,760
Speaker 5: your mothering skills, you should be ashamed of yourself. This

268
00:14:23,840 --> 00:14:27,800
Speaker 5: is what I'll say. Let's let it play out because

269
00:14:27,800 --> 00:14:30,280
Speaker 5: the same ones that said to me, I was crazy,

270
00:14:30,640 --> 00:14:34,600
Speaker 5: I was deranged, we watched it play out. So just

271
00:14:34,680 --> 00:14:38,760
Speaker 5: like with my son, we'll watch this play out. And

272
00:14:39,320 --> 00:14:43,160
Speaker 5: I do want to address this though. Shealan, When you

273
00:14:43,240 --> 00:14:46,800
Speaker 5: say her daddy, her daddy, then that's what mommy gonna say,

274
00:14:46,800 --> 00:14:49,160
Speaker 5: stop playing, because you know this has been Uncle said

275
00:14:49,200 --> 00:14:52,720
Speaker 5: your whole life. Uncle said knew you before you knew you.

276
00:14:53,160 --> 00:14:56,560
Speaker 5: So for you to say her three sons, yes, you're

277
00:14:56,640 --> 00:15:00,120
Speaker 5: absolutely right. He has three sons. He can't claim you

278
00:15:00,160 --> 00:15:03,400
Speaker 5: as his son because he's always been uncle Sid and

279
00:15:03,440 --> 00:15:04,040
Speaker 5: he knows.

280
00:15:03,880 --> 00:15:09,120
Speaker 6: Your daddy very well and loved that brother. And the

281
00:15:09,160 --> 00:15:13,840
Speaker 6: irony of all of this is you're not expressing the

282
00:15:13,960 --> 00:15:19,600
Speaker 6: relationship that you have with your father where you spoke

283
00:15:19,840 --> 00:15:23,440
Speaker 6: ill to him, not to mention spoke ill to your mother.

284
00:15:23,880 --> 00:15:28,440
Speaker 6: But somehow your mother and father and I all have

285
00:15:28,520 --> 00:15:32,640
Speaker 6: a loving relationship and communicate back and forth because of

286
00:15:32,680 --> 00:15:33,760
Speaker 6: the love that we.

287
00:15:33,680 --> 00:15:34,520
Speaker 7: Have for you.

288
00:15:35,480 --> 00:15:38,440
Speaker 1: Now, after this, her son got online and responded, and

289
00:15:38,520 --> 00:15:40,680
Speaker 1: his take on the situation was completely different.

290
00:15:41,000 --> 00:15:44,040
Speaker 7: To address the clips to Shit interview that she did,

291
00:15:44,080 --> 00:15:46,520
Speaker 7: where she states and she prays to the universe in

292
00:15:46,560 --> 00:15:51,359
Speaker 7: regards to reconciling our relationship, as I stated, is odd.

293
00:15:52,280 --> 00:15:54,200
Speaker 7: My mother and I both know that that is a

294
00:15:54,480 --> 00:15:56,880
Speaker 7: very false narrative, and I would like to free her

295
00:15:57,400 --> 00:16:01,120
Speaker 7: of having to continue telling that lie. Faith without work

296
00:16:01,240 --> 00:16:03,720
Speaker 7: is dead, and neither one of us cares to put

297
00:16:03,760 --> 00:16:07,560
Speaker 7: forth any effort to reconcile with the other. We are separate,

298
00:16:07,600 --> 00:16:10,080
Speaker 7: as she put it, because she doesn't care to be

299
00:16:10,200 --> 00:16:12,200
Speaker 7: my mother any more than I care to be her son.

300
00:16:13,040 --> 00:16:16,160
Speaker 7: Neither one of us has had the desire to reach

301
00:16:16,200 --> 00:16:18,560
Speaker 7: out to the other in a very long time, and

302
00:16:19,000 --> 00:16:21,920
Speaker 7: I don't think that either of us anticipates that feeling. Ever.

303
00:16:21,960 --> 00:16:25,560
Speaker 7: Returning speaking with my mother directly, in my experience, will

304
00:16:25,600 --> 00:16:29,160
Speaker 7: either lead to some odd newfound moment of clarity in

305
00:16:29,200 --> 00:16:32,200
Speaker 7: regards to how she was as my mother, or she

306
00:16:32,320 --> 00:16:35,320
Speaker 7: retreats back to Daddy to move forward with a conversation.

307
00:16:35,920 --> 00:16:40,360
Speaker 7: And I'm tired of hearing my mother's truths. Newsflash. I'm

308
00:16:40,400 --> 00:16:43,680
Speaker 7: not sure if people know, but standing in your truth

309
00:16:43,920 --> 00:16:47,120
Speaker 7: doesn't make you noble. I'm not sure if people are

310
00:16:47,120 --> 00:16:51,400
Speaker 7: aware of that. But responding this way, I feel as

311
00:16:51,400 --> 00:16:54,800
Speaker 7: though it allows me to say my peace uninterrupted.

312
00:16:55,320 --> 00:16:58,240
Speaker 1: Now, following all of this, there was a photo that

313
00:16:58,320 --> 00:17:01,760
Speaker 1: was posted to with Monique and her son and it

314
00:17:01,840 --> 00:17:05,560
Speaker 1: talked about them reconciling finally and being able to begin

315
00:17:05,680 --> 00:17:09,800
Speaker 1: conversations with healing and figuring it out. And again, I

316
00:17:09,840 --> 00:17:14,600
Speaker 1: think seeing that photo, knowing this background and hear Monique

317
00:17:14,640 --> 00:17:18,000
Speaker 1: tell ts Madison her ego was in the way she

318
00:17:18,080 --> 00:17:20,280
Speaker 1: can be accountable for that, she had to think, Okay,

319
00:17:20,520 --> 00:17:23,440
Speaker 1: this is my child, I am the adult here, and

320
00:17:23,520 --> 00:17:26,080
Speaker 1: she pulled herself up by the bootstrap and figured it

321
00:17:26,119 --> 00:17:28,720
Speaker 1: out in a way where they will where they're now

322
00:17:28,760 --> 00:17:32,320
Speaker 1: able to be at a peaceful place. It's just a

323
00:17:32,320 --> 00:17:36,199
Speaker 1: good thing to see. I think, you know, it's always

324
00:17:36,280 --> 00:17:40,480
Speaker 1: tough with women and family, and I kind of wish

325
00:17:40,600 --> 00:17:44,160
Speaker 1: that ts Madison had dived more into this when Monique

326
00:17:44,280 --> 00:17:47,119
Speaker 1: was talking about her son, because I've heard Monique talk

327
00:17:47,119 --> 00:17:48,760
Speaker 1: about the situation a lot of Monique, we would love

328
00:17:48,800 --> 00:17:51,359
Speaker 1: to hear have you here on the Bronco Grinding production

329
00:17:51,600 --> 00:17:54,160
Speaker 1: of The Latest with Lauren de Rosa if you ever

330
00:17:54,359 --> 00:17:57,040
Speaker 1: listen to the podcast. If you listen, let me know

331
00:17:57,520 --> 00:17:59,159
Speaker 1: we would love to have you here because what I

332
00:17:59,160 --> 00:18:00,960
Speaker 1: would love to talk to you about. We don't got

333
00:18:00,960 --> 00:18:03,200
Speaker 1: to get into Tyler Perry again. We don't gotta talk

334
00:18:03,200 --> 00:18:05,399
Speaker 1: about Oprah again. I would love to talk to you

335
00:18:05,480 --> 00:18:09,040
Speaker 1: about when you were figuring out that balance. And I

336
00:18:09,040 --> 00:18:10,840
Speaker 1: know you talked a bit about this on Club Chase Shape,

337
00:18:10,840 --> 00:18:13,440
Speaker 1: but I think the conversation would be different with the woman,

338
00:18:13,560 --> 00:18:15,560
Speaker 1: and I think I'll be interested in having the conversation

339
00:18:15,600 --> 00:18:17,520
Speaker 1: because as a woman that is trying to figure out

340
00:18:18,600 --> 00:18:21,400
Speaker 1: when do I have kids, When I have them, how

341
00:18:21,440 --> 00:18:25,040
Speaker 1: do I balance career? My career requires me. I feel

342
00:18:25,080 --> 00:18:28,200
Speaker 1: absent as a daughter and a green daughter right now,

343
00:18:28,520 --> 00:18:30,800
Speaker 1: and I'm like laughing about it, but like I literally

344
00:18:31,560 --> 00:18:34,959
Speaker 1: it has caused me, in some instances so much anxiety

345
00:18:35,000 --> 00:18:37,880
Speaker 1: and so much stress is trying to figure everything out

346
00:18:38,280 --> 00:18:41,240
Speaker 1: as things are moving and grooving and you know, now

347
00:18:41,320 --> 00:18:43,600
Speaker 1: I'm in the flow of things, like we got the podcast,

348
00:18:43,800 --> 00:18:46,520
Speaker 1: we got the studio, we know the daily time, I

349
00:18:46,560 --> 00:18:48,920
Speaker 1: know the time for breakfast club, like all of this stuff.

350
00:18:48,960 --> 00:18:52,160
Speaker 1: Though it's like everything is moving, not even was. It's

351
00:18:52,200 --> 00:18:55,520
Speaker 1: moving so fast and things are so new that I'm

352
00:18:55,600 --> 00:18:57,359
Speaker 1: used to being able to dedicate a certain amount of

353
00:18:57,400 --> 00:18:59,040
Speaker 1: time to family, being able to pick up the phone

354
00:18:59,080 --> 00:19:00,960
Speaker 1: a certain amount of times, and I can't do that

355
00:19:01,040 --> 00:19:04,800
Speaker 1: all the time. And the other day my mom literally

356
00:19:04,840 --> 00:19:08,080
Speaker 1: asks me. And it's probably even worse when it's your child,

357
00:19:08,400 --> 00:19:10,760
Speaker 1: but my mom asked me the other day, you don't

358
00:19:10,760 --> 00:19:12,240
Speaker 1: love me no more? And she was so serious. She

359
00:19:12,320 --> 00:19:13,719
Speaker 1: was like, you don't love me no more? And I'm like,

360
00:19:13,880 --> 00:19:15,320
Speaker 1: what do you mean? She was like, we are best

361
00:19:15,359 --> 00:19:18,520
Speaker 1: friends and you don't even call me sometimes, just say

362
00:19:18,560 --> 00:19:21,600
Speaker 1: good morning the same way that you were doing prior

363
00:19:21,640 --> 00:19:24,920
Speaker 1: to all this you know stuff, And I'm like, dang,

364
00:19:24,960 --> 00:19:27,080
Speaker 1: I had to think about it. Like it's because like

365
00:19:27,119 --> 00:19:29,959
Speaker 1: once I'm up. I'm going, I get up. We at

366
00:19:29,960 --> 00:19:32,719
Speaker 1: the breakfast club. We leave the breakfast club, I head

367
00:19:32,760 --> 00:19:34,680
Speaker 1: her to the podcast. I get home from the podcast,

368
00:19:35,040 --> 00:19:37,240
Speaker 1: I might take an hour to myself just to not talk,

369
00:19:37,560 --> 00:19:38,960
Speaker 1: and then I'll call my mom and just kind of

370
00:19:38,960 --> 00:19:41,440
Speaker 1: download her day. But you know, hearing from me in

371
00:19:41,480 --> 00:19:43,960
Speaker 1: the morning starts her day, and we're really close. Same

372
00:19:44,000 --> 00:19:47,080
Speaker 1: thing with my grandmother, and she's been complaining about that too.

373
00:19:47,200 --> 00:19:51,000
Speaker 1: So when I'm listening to you know, Monique talk about

374
00:19:51,200 --> 00:19:54,200
Speaker 1: being accountable for things and ego being in the way

375
00:19:54,280 --> 00:19:57,479
Speaker 1: and finding a pa a place of peace and healing.

376
00:19:57,560 --> 00:20:01,440
Speaker 1: All these years later, my first it was I would

377
00:20:01,480 --> 00:20:05,760
Speaker 1: love to hear, just even mentally, what you're dealing with

378
00:20:05,840 --> 00:20:09,280
Speaker 1: as a mom who is building career. Career is moving

379
00:20:09,359 --> 00:20:11,920
Speaker 1: so fast, Monique, Because come on, y'all, y'all can play

380
00:20:11,920 --> 00:20:14,880
Speaker 1: with Monique all y'all want and disagree with her when

381
00:20:14,880 --> 00:20:17,800
Speaker 1: it comes to, you know, what she's going through with

382
00:20:17,880 --> 00:20:19,960
Speaker 1: other people in the industry currently. Like you know, I

383
00:20:19,960 --> 00:20:21,600
Speaker 1: don't agree with everything she says. I don't agree with

384
00:20:21,640 --> 00:20:23,840
Speaker 1: everything she does. But one of the things that I've

385
00:20:24,280 --> 00:20:27,480
Speaker 1: always said is that Monique is an icon. Monique is

386
00:20:27,520 --> 00:20:32,680
Speaker 1: a legend. Her career is and was super big, right,

387
00:20:33,119 --> 00:20:36,159
Speaker 1: and think about at the height of it having a

388
00:20:36,320 --> 00:20:39,520
Speaker 1: child and trying to figure out the balance of the things.

389
00:20:39,640 --> 00:20:42,760
Speaker 1: And you know her her career is also very physical

390
00:20:42,840 --> 00:20:46,199
Speaker 1: where she has to show up. She's an actress. You know,

391
00:20:46,280 --> 00:20:48,360
Speaker 1: she was hosting a TV show, y'all. Remember the y'all

392
00:20:48,400 --> 00:20:50,920
Speaker 1: Remember the Monique show. She was hosting a TV show.

393
00:20:50,920 --> 00:20:53,280
Speaker 1: I believe that was on Bet. She's on the road

394
00:20:53,359 --> 00:20:57,160
Speaker 1: touring as a comedian. All three of these things happen

395
00:20:57,200 --> 00:21:00,600
Speaker 1: and y'all, and they're all at a height, and it's

396
00:21:00,760 --> 00:21:02,960
Speaker 1: I think, now we have so many more resources, like

397
00:21:03,000 --> 00:21:07,600
Speaker 1: we got the nannies and the nanny services and just

398
00:21:07,680 --> 00:21:10,840
Speaker 1: so many different things, even like people talking about mental

399
00:21:10,880 --> 00:21:13,679
Speaker 1: health now, I think puts you in a different space

400
00:21:13,720 --> 00:21:16,040
Speaker 1: as a parent who's trying to juggle things and knowing

401
00:21:16,119 --> 00:21:18,520
Speaker 1: like I need to take time for myself, or I

402
00:21:18,520 --> 00:21:21,000
Speaker 1: need to devote more time for my family, or I

403
00:21:21,080 --> 00:21:23,800
Speaker 1: need to find a better balance because you know, mentally,

404
00:21:23,840 --> 00:21:26,320
Speaker 1: this might be putting my child in a certain space

405
00:21:26,400 --> 00:21:29,280
Speaker 1: as well. Things are just different now. Would love to

406
00:21:29,320 --> 00:21:31,439
Speaker 1: talk to her just about what that journey was like,

407
00:21:31,520 --> 00:21:35,400
Speaker 1: because she was in a very different time, things are

408
00:21:35,400 --> 00:21:38,800
Speaker 1: moving very fast for her, and they were up. It

409
00:21:39,359 --> 00:21:42,920
Speaker 1: was the peak of everything, while also dealing with her

410
00:21:42,960 --> 00:21:45,880
Speaker 1: own battles and struggles. You know, she talked about being

411
00:21:45,920 --> 00:21:49,520
Speaker 1: overweight on the podcast on with T. S. Madison and

412
00:21:49,720 --> 00:21:53,159
Speaker 1: how it affected her, and you know how she almost

413
00:21:53,240 --> 00:21:55,960
Speaker 1: she didn't even know at some points, you know, what

414
00:21:56,119 --> 00:21:59,280
Speaker 1: her weight was doing to her, and she said this herself,

415
00:21:59,520 --> 00:22:04,639
Speaker 1: just how things were perceived. She talked about watching the

416
00:22:04,720 --> 00:22:07,439
Speaker 1: Parkers and being like, oh wow, no one told me.

417
00:22:08,680 --> 00:22:11,200
Speaker 1: She talked about meeting an agent and the agent saying

418
00:22:11,240 --> 00:22:14,880
Speaker 1: to her, because of your size, you can't be sexy

419
00:22:14,960 --> 00:22:19,080
Speaker 1: and fun, You'll always be the fun, fat friend who

420
00:22:19,560 --> 00:22:22,719
Speaker 1: plays second fiddle to someone. So you're dealing with all

421
00:22:22,760 --> 00:22:25,880
Speaker 1: this new you know, you have, you have a child,

422
00:22:25,920 --> 00:22:28,720
Speaker 1: you're raising, just all the things trying to figure out,

423
00:22:28,760 --> 00:22:31,480
Speaker 1: like trying to figure would love to have that conversation there.

424
00:22:31,840 --> 00:22:34,040
Speaker 1: I don't think I've ever heard her in depth talk

425
00:22:34,080 --> 00:22:36,359
Speaker 1: about that. I know she did get into it a

426
00:22:36,359 --> 00:22:38,040
Speaker 1: bit on Club Sha Shay, and she's touched on it

427
00:22:38,080 --> 00:22:40,320
Speaker 1: a bit, but I mean in depth in a way

428
00:22:40,359 --> 00:22:45,040
Speaker 1: where we could really understand and honestly learn from that

429
00:22:45,119 --> 00:22:48,080
Speaker 1: part of her journey now, at the end of the day,

430
00:22:48,119 --> 00:22:50,600
Speaker 1: there's always a lot to talk about, and every single

431
00:22:50,640 --> 00:22:52,840
Speaker 1: time you guys join me right here to talk about it,

432
00:22:52,880 --> 00:22:56,800
Speaker 1: I am so appreciative. Ah, we're on the road to

433
00:22:57,040 --> 00:23:00,880
Speaker 1: a hundred episodes, y'all. I'm like, let's send twenty four

434
