Speaker 1: Okay, you get tricky, tricky tricky V.

Speaker 2: we feel like is that R and B is not
Speaker 2: It's not one dimensional. It's not It's not just about
Speaker 2: the people who do it, who write it, sing it,
Speaker 2: or produce it. It's also about the people who are
Speaker 2: affected and influenced by it, who use it.
Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, all them dance moves you be doing on account.
Speaker 1: Too. Yes, So let's get into let's get into where
Speaker 1: where we're a little bit into where pretty V comes from.
Speaker 1: Let's start at the beginning where you're from. What is
Speaker 1: to talk about?
Speaker 4: Miami?
Speaker 1: You know?
Speaker 7: Day?
Speaker 3: Yeah, County a day.
Speaker 5: And then moved to Broward and then I transitioned.
Speaker 4: My mom got married and moved to the Carolina, South Carolina,
Speaker 4: and then I spent the rest of my high school there.
Speaker 4: And then I moved from South Carolina and went to Rayleigh,
Speaker 4: North Carolina, where I studied communication at Santagustine University HBCU
Speaker 4: and all four years major with communications. And after that
Speaker 4: I decided, like go back to Miami and figure this
Speaker 4: thing out, you know, like what's going on. Then after that,
Speaker 4: depression came because I was trying to figure out like
Speaker 4: what God wanted me to do. And I was that
Speaker 4: girl in college. And when you have that sauce coming
Speaker 4: out in the raal wad, you're like, well where I
Speaker 4: started at, I was lit in college.
Speaker 5: Now I ain't lit outside of that.
Speaker 4: So I got to figure it out and I applied
Speaker 4: to so many jobs, radios and just trying to host stuff,
Speaker 4: just doing so much and it didn't work out of
Speaker 4: my favor. So I had to be still and hear
Speaker 4: from God in Miami, and then I went back home
Speaker 4: that adn't worked there, and then I went back to
Speaker 4: South Carolina to see my mom and you know her
Speaker 4: being a pastor, you know, speaking life into me, but
Speaker 4: I still wasn't hearing her. And then you know, I
Speaker 4: got a call to do promotions at a radio station
Speaker 4: in Charlotte, so I moved there with my sister. And
Speaker 4: then after that I got let off from that job
Speaker 4: because it was like a seasonal job, you know. And
Speaker 4: then after that I had my own radio show called
Speaker 4: The VXO Show, where we you know, talk about current
Speaker 4: events and entertainment and all.
Speaker 3: That city Charlotte and Charlotte, Charlotte.
Speaker 4: And then I got viral in that season too. I
Speaker 4: think it was twenty sixteen, twenty seventeen. I was fighting
Speaker 4: myself in the street. I was like, like, pokemon, I
Speaker 4: saw all that stuff.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I saw yeah, yeah, I saw that.
Speaker 4: My best friend was like, girl, just do something so
Speaker 4: you can go viral. And I was just like, girl,
Speaker 4: what what's like?
Speaker 3: What made you think that?
Speaker 4: Though, like, well she thought of it. My best friend Anika,
Speaker 4: and then I just act on it and then we
Speaker 4: were just outside pulling my hand and I was like okay.
Speaker 4: Then everybody, all the blogs had it like ball alert.
Speaker 4: Shade was like okay, we lit. But then I was like,
Speaker 4: you still broke, So what's going on?
Speaker 5: Your job?
Speaker 1: How trans Yeah? Lit into right?
Speaker 4: How we turned funny into money at this point? Right?
Speaker 5: So I got a I got a call from Arnold Teil.
Speaker 1: Were you funny before that?
Speaker 4: Oh?
Speaker 8: For sure?
Speaker 1: Where did you know you were fun?
Speaker 4: Middle school? Middle school? I knew that it was something special.

Speaker 4: elementary school and middle school, I used to always get
Speaker 4: called from the back of the front of the classroom,
Speaker 4: you know. So it's just like it was something and
Speaker 4: I was trying to figure what was Then I thought
Speaker 4: it was radio. I was like, let me use my voice.
Speaker 4: All through college, from my sophomore year onto graduating, I
Speaker 4: had my own show called The Lounge twenty two. I
Speaker 4: had radio. I was at, you know, programming the AM
Speaker 4: radio station at Saint oh So I knew it was
Speaker 4: something like what is it? So then I transitioned from
Speaker 4: being from the back to the front and wanted to
Speaker 4: act and wanted.
Speaker 8: To get into the comedian side.
Speaker 3: So yeah, it was a very familiar name.
Speaker 1: She said.

Speaker 4: coming into this space. And then twenty seventeen, twenty eighteen,
Speaker 4: I moved by faith and moved from Charlotte to Atlanta
Speaker 4: and our auditioned for a while and out live to
Speaker 4: get on the show. I was like, said Carlos, I
Speaker 4: said call it. This was my uncle, like cousin DC
Speaker 4: was not like a friend that I knew.
Speaker 3: Make it up to get in there.
Speaker 4: So my home at the time, she was like, girls,
Speaker 4: say that because that's what got me in there. But
Speaker 4: you know when you when you when you But this
Speaker 4: is the thing. I got the audition that they said
Speaker 4: come on right and then I was like, Okay, I
Speaker 4: got these peanut mom skits. I got my ghetto girls skids,
Speaker 4: I got my share on skins. They gonna they gonna
Speaker 4: pick me like I'm funny for real. So I was
Speaker 4: in front of Nile, I was in front of Dolly,
Speaker 4: I was front of all these producers of the show.
Speaker 4: They was like, do this or and say this, or
Speaker 4: how would you do this if someone came to you
Speaker 4: and did this. Then I'm like, I would do it
Speaker 4: like this. They were laughing. But then I didn't get
Speaker 4: a call back right like they didn't want me, but
Speaker 4: be some own got it, just hilarious, got it. Everybody
Speaker 4: just moved. But I thought about it in that moment
Speaker 4: as I got older, because that was when I was
Speaker 4: like twenty five twenty six, I was like, when you're
Speaker 4: doing it the right way, God is an honest God.
Speaker 8: You're not gonna give it to you when you lie.
Speaker 4: Right, You don't need to lie to get in God
Speaker 4: is honest, yo yo yo. Your transition, your season is
Speaker 4: ordained when you are following God and knowing like it's
Speaker 4: an honest season and a journey. Ain't got the lie
Speaker 4: to get in the door when it's for you. It's
Speaker 4: for you.
Speaker 1: You're I'm a preach.
Speaker 3: Shout out to your mom, because give it to you.
Speaker 1: You got to lie, cher.
Speaker 3: Come on to the actual preacher. Man what yeah, not
Speaker 3: the lie.
Speaker 4: So I knew in that moment, I was all right,
Speaker 4: it wasn't my season. But then twenty nineteen he called
Speaker 4: me back. I didn't have to audition.
Speaker 8: And I've been on the show for eight nine seasons
Speaker 8: now because.
Speaker 3: They do four seasons in one summer.
Speaker 4: Look and you know they will say you home the
Speaker 4: day of the show, like y'all get a thanks real time?
Speaker 4: Oh now does it?
Speaker 8: Nick don't care. Nick don't speak. He let the producers
Speaker 8: do it.
Speaker 3: Wild Out is a serious thing.
Speaker 4: It's a serious thing.
Speaker 3: It's a very serious thing.
Speaker 1: I love it. Yeah, I love it.
Speaker 4: We love the show.
Speaker 1: I've been on there twice. You know, I've been blessed
Speaker 1: to be called a couple of times. I lied to
Speaker 1: get on there with my comedic crowds. You know, as
Speaker 1: I just stand up in all these things. They figured
Speaker 1: out a way to turn for the money. I just
Speaker 1: haven't taken the money. Money I'm supposed to get paid
Speaker 1: money compared to my honest money.
Speaker 2: Yes, it was little but it was like, but for me,
Speaker 2: it was like I wanted to take the long route.
Speaker 2: So for me, it was about doing you know, the
Speaker 2: laugh factories and improvs. And I wanted to take that route.
Speaker 2: And when they were like, well, you know, they're looking
Speaker 2: at me as tank and like, well, how much you
Speaker 2: want to get paid? I don't get paid nothing. Yeah,
Speaker 2: you know what I'm saying. I'm just starting. I'm a
Speaker 2: baby in this, you know what I'm saying. So like
Speaker 2: when I get to a point to where it makes
Speaker 2: sense to where these people are actually coming here for me,
Speaker 2: because those two crowds are totally different. You know, I'm
Speaker 2: in front of I'm doing stand up in front of
Speaker 2: crowds that don't even know who I am. It's like
Speaker 2: one person in the audience is like you know what
Speaker 2: I'm saying, It's like give it up a tag, and.
Speaker 1: I'm like mm hmm.
Speaker 5: It's a different department, completely different department.
Speaker 1: And so that's what I had to, you know, build
Speaker 1: my set around.
Speaker 3: Yeah, we don't got no rider or nothing.
Speaker 1: I got nothing like no, no, no, fuck fuck you
Speaker 1: talking about like management don't got no rider everything.
Speaker 3: I'm here, buy my own.
Speaker 1: Drinks and shit and chicken fingers.
Speaker 3: I'm like, I don't pay for chicken fingers.
Speaker 1: I wasn't a guy.
Speaker 3: There's my artists up. I guess that's my artist.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but you know, I'm glad I took the long route,
Speaker 2: you know what I'm saying. I'm glad I was able to,
Speaker 2: you know, get those reps in in front of people
Speaker 2: who didn't know me, and I wasn't getting sympathy tank laughs.
Speaker 1: I really had to make those people laugh.
Speaker 3: So were you doing stand up before you got to
Speaker 3: walling out?
Speaker 1: I was.
Speaker 5: I was doing stand up my friend at the time,
Speaker 5: she took me on tour with her and Jess and
Speaker 5: I think b was on it.
Speaker 4: But it was cool. It was fun, you know, I
Speaker 4: think you know my my my fan was growing at
Speaker 4: the time, so they knew how I was. But it
Speaker 4: was still like, or do you want to do this?
Speaker 4: Or do you want to host? Or do you want
Speaker 4: to have your one woman show? Do you want to
Speaker 4: have your skeed show? Like what are you trying to do?
Speaker 5: It was no booze. It was maybe like a look.
Speaker 4: It may be like a quiet vibe.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it was like did you sweat?
Speaker 5: I didn't sweat. It was just that that that that
Speaker 5: pump of that.
Speaker 4: Okay okay at the time and.
Speaker 3: You start flashing your own life.
Speaker 5: Yeah, okay, time up.
Speaker 1: Well that's my time. Thank you man, y'all such a
Speaker 1: great artist. I gotta get the out of here.
Speaker 9: Man.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 1: I got better.
Speaker 4: And then then I was like, okay, I could do hosting.
Speaker 4: And then next day they switched the host and I
Speaker 4: was able to host.
Speaker 1: So I'm like, oh, so you hop very smart. Yeah.
Speaker 4: I was like, let's host because now when you know
Speaker 4: your lane, I'm not. I'm not a grenad try so hard.
Speaker 4: Like if that ain't for me, let's slide. Because this
Speaker 4: world we live in, in life, you could dibble and
Speaker 4: job and a whole bunch of different things. Like you
Speaker 4: an artist, you tried stand up? You this you that
Speaker 4: like you could try and see if it works for you.
Speaker 4: So that's what I did. The same day, I said,
Speaker 4: uh uh, get that mic up, I'm for the host. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 4: I ain't doing no fifteen of that.
Speaker 1: I loved it. I mean I love it still. Yeah,
Speaker 1: of course you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 4: And I love stand up. I think it's dope. But
Speaker 4: I also for like too, you could be creative in
Speaker 4: your own way, because even when you do women shows,
Speaker 4: you nervous up there too. You're gonna get the stairs,
Speaker 4: You're gonna get like, can I go to the bathroom
Speaker 4: right quick?
Speaker 1: You know.
Speaker 4: So it's more of those moments. So it's still preparing
Speaker 4: you to be confident on stage whatever you do. You know,
Speaker 4: as an artist, you sitting there and just you know.
Speaker 2: I think my advantage is that I had so much
Speaker 2: stage time to where the crowd couldn't really shake me
Speaker 2: one way or the other. Like for me, it was
Speaker 2: just about finding the thing that worked. And so like
Speaker 2: I'd watched so many comedians build their sets to understand that, okay,
Speaker 2: when the joke, When that joke didn't work, cool, and
Speaker 2: they just get to the next one.
Speaker 1: See if that one works. It didn't work, it's get
Speaker 1: the next one. That one works right there.
Speaker 2: And I watched them like, oh, so you're not here
Speaker 2: to make everybody laugh in every joke. You're saying, you're
Speaker 2: really here building the material and seeing where the moments are.
Speaker 2: And then by the time you get up build all
Speaker 2: of those moments after so many clubs and all of that,
Speaker 2: now you got thirty forty minutes to an hour of
Speaker 2: real shit storytelling and the story it's a I'm a storyteller,
Speaker 2: I'm a songwriter.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 1: So by the time I got on Stay, I was like,
Speaker 1: oh shit, if they want to just leave, I'm gonna
Speaker 1: just look, take my shirt off and sing a song.
Speaker 1: But I think that now, with you having so much
Speaker 1: stage time under your belt, I feel like stand up
Speaker 1: will be way different for you.
Speaker 2: I think it'll be way different for you. You know
Speaker 2: what I'm saying, just in terms of your confidence and
Speaker 2: even terms of your the material. You've been writing so
Speaker 2: much up until this point to where you can dial
Speaker 2: up so much shit it's a drop of a dime
Speaker 2: and you'll kill them.
Speaker 1: So don't be scared of that special. Yeah, because we
Speaker 1: would tune into a pretty be special.
Speaker 4: Would you guys?
Speaker 6: Absolutely, I want to see all the characters. I'm seriously yeah,
Speaker 6: because then you have your time to really you know.
Speaker 4: Just like go coming coming. I was gonna do my
Speaker 4: first sketch show in a bucket theater doing the Mary J.
Speaker 4: Bli Summit with Live Nation, but they kind of switched gears,
Speaker 4: so it was okay because I know for me, when
Speaker 4: that happens, that means I need to do it. The
Speaker 4: VN a way, you know, and nothing was wrong with it.
Speaker 4: It was just more of like, Okay, maybe that's the
Speaker 4: timing they wanted, but I know my time and I
Speaker 4: need to do it this way. So yeah, but I'm
Speaker 4: gonna definitely do it and you know, throw you out
Speaker 4: the invite.
Speaker 1: So let's let's pull back a little bit though, because
Speaker 1: you know it's something you said that was very important
Speaker 1: to me, figuring out the funny to the money, and.
Speaker 4: Don't do that because I already done Google that, Google
Speaker 4: Daddy Dad, and I don't already did all that. Shout
Speaker 4: out to upon Crocket. Yeah, he gave me that. He
Speaker 4: gave that thing.
Speaker 1: Lawyer.
Speaker 6: So you on social media, yes, now you're on wild 'nout.
Speaker 6: You donet went on the road a little bit. Have
Speaker 6: you started making any money?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 6: I have now not Now I'm not talking about right now.
Speaker 6: We're going back then, Yeah, we're going back, like what
Speaker 6: is the process? Because I think a lot of people
Speaker 6: look at social media and they think this person went viral.
Speaker 6: They hit the lottery, of course, So I want you
Speaker 6: to come and give us the process of even or
Speaker 6: just the mindset of Okay, how do I turn this
Speaker 6: funny moments viral thing into actually being able to pay
Speaker 6: for my rent in my life. Yeah, like, what are
Speaker 6: the what were the steps for you for me to
Speaker 6: turn into something like financially No.
Speaker 1: For sure.
Speaker 8: So for me, prayer, consistency and just know who you are.
Speaker 4: That's what it is, right. But I was also in
Speaker 4: a space of once I did all of that went on,
Speaker 4: I ain't make no money on the road. Let's be
Speaker 4: very clear. It was just more of like, all right, girl,
Speaker 4: it's money out here, let me try. I did it
Speaker 4: for three nights. Okay, cool, that ain't for me. When
Speaker 4: I got on wild'n Out, you already know how it
Speaker 4: is when you when the first you do, you in
Speaker 4: your big inner stage. So it's like, all right, we're
Speaker 4: gonna you're gonna pay me this amount. All right, I'm
Speaker 4: gonna I'm gonna take that. But I was consistent, you know,
Speaker 4: you know wild'n Out, they gonna drop an episode back
Speaker 4: to back. We on season one, you're on season ten.
Speaker 4: I was, I can't season eleven. Then next five weeks
Speaker 4: from now, you're doing season twelve. So all of that
Speaker 4: moment is like, okay, I'm putting that in my savings.
Speaker 4: I'm seeing what's going on. But it's also I'm helping family,
Speaker 4: I'm doing stuff for friends, and I'm dibbling and dabbling
Speaker 4: things that like, okay, I should be saving. So I
Speaker 4: think for me, it was the consistency, you know, and
Speaker 4: the different jobs that came outside of wilding out that
Speaker 4: mainly all right cool. I got a McDonald's commercial that
Speaker 4: paid already cool. Then I got you know, six hundred
Speaker 4: products and city trends okay that came along, yes, six yeah,
Speaker 4: like six, I'm in six hundred story excuse me with
Speaker 4: all my products in it in Cyah.
Speaker 3: What are the products that you have?
Speaker 4: Beauty like workout gear, ear pods, ox pods, like the
Speaker 4: list goes on and on. Little fake nails, yeah, everything, everything, everything,
Speaker 4: add thing's pretty VP you Jamaican for real bad y'alla
Speaker 4: yeah we're going yeah yeah yeah. So I did so
Speaker 4: all of that for me. The formula, because no one
Speaker 4: can have your recipe. No one can have your recipe.
Speaker 4: It's whatever God has instilled this gift that no one
Speaker 4: has it. You can't look at somebody, so that's tank.
Speaker 4: It's not can't look at somebody, so that's jay.
Speaker 5: Same with me.
Speaker 4: So I think For me, it was just the formula
Speaker 4: was just being staying in my word, praying my mother like,
Speaker 4: oh Lord, them prayer warriors, you know, and then also
Speaker 4: being consistent and just being determined, knowing that you're confident,
Speaker 4: knowing that your call to be on that same stage

Speaker 4: that's all day, so talented.
Speaker 1: Love. I just saw him. Its like I was spilling
Speaker 1: out your spelling. I was like, figure, like what you're
Speaker 1: here for the breakfast? Me too?
Speaker 2: You said something earlier before we were like y'all was
Speaker 2: talking about commission. Come on, what you know about commission?
Speaker 1: What what?
Speaker 8: Hangding some lone?
Speaker 1: My love?
Speaker 4: I need something?
Speaker 3: Did she did she do the Caribbean version.
Speaker 1: As karaoke or the carib I don't know which one
Speaker 1: that was.
Speaker 4: You know, you don't hit the spot in that part.
Speaker 4: Come on, you know, Fred Hammond, Marvin Sap like them
Speaker 4: being part of that group. Like I just I'm such
Speaker 4: a student and I hear my mom, you know as
Speaker 4: a kid, you know, just listen to Helen Baylor, you know,
Speaker 4: and I need to buy them and the Commission and
Speaker 4: the Marvin Sap and the Fred Hammonds. So that's what
Speaker 4: I grew up on. And it's no shade to things
Speaker 4: that are new. But I feel like at that time,
Speaker 4: deliverance was real, you know, if like we had to
Speaker 4: fight for something that time. Come on, what I just said,
Speaker 4: What I just said, Let me what I said.
Speaker 5: Deliverance is really like we needed so.
Speaker 1: We needed turning away from come on here you go.
Speaker 4: Seriously, I think the breakthroughs back then, we needed those
Speaker 4: music for breakthroughs.
Speaker 1: Needed it.
Speaker 4: The sisters, we needed those moments. We needed all that,
Speaker 4: you know, Tiki here, you know, Kiosha, but we literally
Speaker 4: I needed my mom. That's all we listened to in
Speaker 4: the in the house. You know, stop it on Doublehead.
Speaker 3: Had you had you heard any secular music growing up
Speaker 3: or not?
Speaker 1: Really?
Speaker 4: Of course my dad was funk. My dad was so
Speaker 4: my planning, I didn't listen to all the going up
Speaker 4: to Virginia each summertime, like that's all I heard was already,
Speaker 4: you know, and just classic music. Michael Jackson, you know,
Speaker 4: just high fives like that's that's my dad.
Speaker 1: Five you know, my age group, all of that, my father.
Speaker 4: My father, and it was my mom too. You know
Speaker 4: her artist is when Houston. You know she's gonna throw
Speaker 4: that on. But in the in the worship area, you know,
Speaker 4: in church, that's what it was. You know, we came home,
Speaker 4: that's what we listened to when we when we were
Speaker 4: around the house cleaned up. You know, you're gonna throw
Speaker 4: on that, uh that Michael Jackson or you know whatever.
Speaker 2: So you know, I think if you ask any any
Speaker 2: any singer, songwriter, producer, you know what I'm saying of
Speaker 2: this time. You know what I'm saying, they're always going
Speaker 2: to have.
Speaker 1: A gospel background, and they're always going to defer to
Speaker 1: the commission and Whinings and John and Kim and you
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, all of these they're always going
Speaker 1: to refer to it. You know, I'm saying, we got
Speaker 1: a lot of good gospel friends. Yes, you know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying. Isaac Kreed In Zaccardi.
Speaker 2: And all like, and when we're like, it's still a
Speaker 2: part of our lives because even if you're not tapped into,
Speaker 2: you know, the religious experience of all, we are all
Speaker 2: still spiritual beings, yes, and we can all still receive
Speaker 2: that information and appreciate it. For what it is, and
Speaker 2: it elevates us. You know what I'm saying on a
Speaker 2: day where you know it may not be going so great.
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying, Some of them songs and
Speaker 1: some of those lyrics, even if that's not what you
Speaker 1: believe the spirit of that music, it just will do
Speaker 1: something to you.
Speaker 2: It will do something to you. So I encourage everyone
Speaker 2: go get your commissioned on. Please, please, yes, go get
Speaker 2: your windings.
Speaker 1: You want to know what boys, the men and Jo
Speaker 1: Tosy and and all these groups and the Drew Heels
Speaker 1: where they all come from. You want to know where
Speaker 1: r Kelly comes from.
Speaker 4: Get the line and he annoys it if you tapping
Speaker 4: into that, because he doesn't produce some stuff too. You know,
Speaker 4: it's it's more of like you have that that gift,
Speaker 4: but when an enemy come in, that's what it is,
Speaker 4: you know. But when you have that special gift like
Speaker 4: he does, you're gonna create something.
Speaker 1: And he has.
Speaker 4: And that's why I love listening to those Gospels and hearing.
Speaker 4: I'm a student, so I'm hearing everything. You know, I'm like,
Speaker 4: who did this? So who produced that?
Speaker 5: Or because it sounds like it's something there, you know,
Speaker 5: in that gospel.
Speaker 3: Rim you know.
Speaker 1: So yeah, just turn into the Arms and Money Salvation Pod.
Speaker 1: Come on, I see we're gonna get you.
Speaker 3: See why I'm sitting on this.
Speaker 5: Music is just everything.
Speaker 8: It changes moves you know, it changed everything.
Speaker 2: The soundtrack to your life. You can think of where
Speaker 2: you were, what you were doing, and who you were
Speaker 2: with just from one song.
Speaker 1: One song one like like I can't wait until they

Speaker 4: only the beginning for me. Like I'm still at that
Speaker 4: beginning stage. Like I feel like I haven't touched certain people,
Speaker 4: and I haven't touched the people, you know, and I've
Speaker 4: done the wild'n outs. I've done the gigs where it's like,
Speaker 4: all right, you know, let's do these McDonald commercial, Let's

Speaker 4: us having a still moment, and uh, I think it's
Speaker 4: time to create. And that's what I've been doing and
Speaker 4: just staying. Kat Williams told me and he called me
Speaker 4: one day because he wanted me to host one of
Speaker 4: his tours, and he gave me some advice and he
Speaker 4: called me. He said, what's up V. I said nothing.
Speaker 4: You don't stay out the way. He said, what the
Speaker 4: fuck are you talking about? Standing in motherfucking way? You
Speaker 4: pretty V you know so I so I actually got
Speaker 4: that advice, and I've been staying in the way ever since,
Speaker 4: you know, in a good way, not being all over
Speaker 4: the place, because you don't have to be able to
Speaker 4: to stay the way. You stand the way in the
Speaker 4: right room, stay in the room, staying away with right opportunities,
Speaker 4: you know. And that's what I've been doing because I
Speaker 4: don't want my face to be all the places, because
Speaker 4: you know, I want room people to work with me.
Speaker 4: You know, sometime when you it's too much, it's like
Speaker 4: girl like sit down. You know, I don't want to
Speaker 4: be there. I want I want Hollywood or in that
Speaker 4: space when it's time to really work with me on
Speaker 4: a space of like this is a fresh new face.
Speaker 4: You know, she's doing her skitch, she do her little
Speaker 4: things here and there. It's producer's watching me right now,
Speaker 4: directors wanting to work. So I want to leave room
Speaker 4: for us to create in that space. So right now
Speaker 4: I'm creating on my own until this stuff lifts up.

Speaker 4: maintaining city trends. I just started my foundation called The
Speaker 4: Pretty Victory, where the benefits everyone, the youth, you know,
Speaker 4: the men, the women who are hurting mental health, self
Speaker 4: esteem issues, confidence, and I'm just trying to help them
Speaker 4: in that space. So outside of the film and TV,
Speaker 4: in the comedic rim that's my baby, you know, and
Speaker 4: The Pretty Victory. So we just you know, building. Yeah,
Speaker 4: And I've been asking people what victories mean, what victory

Speaker 4: I went on set yesterday and I asked, like Brisia Webb,
Speaker 4: Caruci and you know, Aman of Seals, like what does
Speaker 4: it mean to them? Because sometimes we don't know that
Speaker 4: you know, what makes you victorious? Like I be wanting
Speaker 4: to know, So what makes what makes you victorious?
Speaker 6: That I wake up and I smile every day? That's
Speaker 6: literally like for me that's enough because I you know,
Speaker 6: I feel like we grow up the way we grow
Speaker 6: up and should be be up and down. So you

Speaker 1: Living in my purpose and living with whatever the results are. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you know I went.
Speaker 2: Through I think I went through a phase where I
Speaker 2: wanted what everybody else had mm hmmm, because that looked
Speaker 2: victorious to me, and I had to be set down
Speaker 2: and made aware that my victory was completely different, My
Speaker 2: purpose was completely different.
Speaker 1: You know. I Everything is not a bag of money,
Speaker 1: Everything is not a car, everything is not a house. Everything.
Speaker 1: Some things are just somebody walking up to you and
