00:01:20,480 --> 00:01:24,000
Speaker 1: reconstructed surgery. Her mouth was wired shut. She just posted

25
00:01:24,040 --> 00:01:25,759
Speaker 1: a couple of days ago that when she did the

26
00:01:25,840 --> 00:01:28,080
Speaker 1: bees in the Trap video with Nicki Minaj, that was

27
00:01:28,120 --> 00:01:30,319

42
00:02:22,280 --> 00:02:24,880
Speaker 1: girls that were doing it for me because I did

43
00:02:24,880 --> 00:02:27,240
Speaker 1: not do that one. I could not even begin to

44
00:02:27,320 --> 00:02:29,760
Speaker 1: Maria j I could not even begin to try that

45
00:02:29,800 --> 00:02:31,920
Speaker 1: one because it just I was like, if I turned

46
00:02:31,960 --> 00:02:33,600
Speaker 1: the wrong way, I'm gonna poup my arm out, like

47
00:02:33,639 --> 00:02:35,000
Speaker 1: it's not a game. And I was like, let me

48
00:02:35,040 --> 00:02:37,720
Speaker 1: let the professionals do this one. Thank you ladies. And

49
00:02:37,960 --> 00:02:40,560
Speaker 1: f I I just watching that because sometimes you know,

50
00:02:40,840 --> 00:02:42,520
Speaker 1: you go to this strip club, but they don't really

51
00:02:42,600 --> 00:02:47,360
Speaker 1: have skills, like you know what I'm saying, a little

52
00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:50,920
Speaker 1: grind on somebody. But to see like that, because like

53
00:02:51,120 --> 00:02:53,200
Speaker 1: you know, I used to go see g and Magic City,

54
00:02:53,720 --> 00:02:57,200
Speaker 1: but that was like a real performance. It was like,

55
00:02:57,520 --> 00:03:00,200
Speaker 1: how are they doing this the Snack Pack And that's

56
00:03:00,240 --> 00:03:05,880
Speaker 1: kind of like what we saw. Yeah, the other two

57
00:03:05,880 --> 00:03:11,799
Speaker 1: members of the Snackpack ak a extra extra, which are

58
00:03:12,400 --> 00:03:18,480
Speaker 1: of these girls and they they went from last season

59
00:03:18,520 --> 00:03:20,000
Speaker 1: kind of being a little bit in the background to

60
00:03:20,080 --> 00:03:24,919
Speaker 1: this season really like they was killing a lis characters.

61
00:03:24,960 --> 00:03:27,839
Speaker 1: Like they start off that the car was pussy. Yeah,

62
00:03:29,160 --> 00:03:32,880
Speaker 1: I wanted to do money at the TV they're doing.

63
00:03:32,919 --> 00:03:36,400
Speaker 1: So I'm so proud of proud of them. What I

64
00:03:36,440 --> 00:03:39,720
Speaker 1: love is that how seriously they take this. So it's

65
00:03:39,760 --> 00:03:42,160
Speaker 1: like they took this opportunity. And I remember being on

66
00:03:42,200 --> 00:03:45,520
Speaker 1: the phone with China who plays Brazil and all the

67
00:03:45,520 --> 00:03:47,720
Speaker 1: girls Simone, like they were really like, Okay, where can

68
00:03:47,720 --> 00:03:51,640
Speaker 1: I take acting classes? All this? So, yeah, they deserve

69
00:03:51,720 --> 00:03:55,400
Speaker 1: everything absolutely, learning about contracts, like the business of it.

70
00:03:55,400 --> 00:03:57,880
Speaker 1: It's one of the things that like people talk about

71
00:03:57,920 --> 00:04:00,760
Speaker 1: like the vibe of the show, like the family aspect

72
00:04:00,800 --> 00:04:05,160
Speaker 1: of it. In real life, we do that like help

73
00:04:05,240 --> 00:04:06,840
Speaker 1: each other, like get to the next step of like

74
00:04:06,880 --> 00:04:09,160
Speaker 1: what you need or I was just talking to Cherokee

75
00:04:09,200 --> 00:04:11,800
Speaker 1: actually the other day, just talking about like some contractual

76
00:04:11,800 --> 00:04:15,920
Speaker 1: things to help her like get different acting agents and representation, right,

77
00:04:15,920 --> 00:04:17,680
Speaker 1: because I don't feel like there's a need to hold

78
00:04:17,760 --> 00:04:23,000
Speaker 1: informations of us everywhere. And we're so much stronger again stronger.

79
00:04:23,040 --> 00:04:26,919
Speaker 1: And you came from off Broadway, right you also so

80
00:04:26,960 --> 00:04:30,600
Speaker 1: you did the play version Pussy Valley, Yeah, before you

81
00:04:30,640 --> 00:04:34,680
Speaker 1: actually auditioned and got the role as Uncle Clifford on Stars. Yeah,

82
00:04:34,880 --> 00:04:36,320
Speaker 1: So what was that like for you? And what's the

83
00:04:36,320 --> 00:04:39,520
Speaker 1: difference between the play and then being on the big screen.

84
00:04:39,880 --> 00:04:42,080
Speaker 1: You know what the big difference is just the amount

85
00:04:42,080 --> 00:04:44,120
Speaker 1: of people that come to see the show. You know,

86
00:04:44,400 --> 00:04:47,560
Speaker 1: we're in everybody's home every night. It was crazy because

87
00:04:47,560 --> 00:04:50,120
Speaker 1: when we did the first workshops of that that was

88
00:04:50,160 --> 00:04:52,800
Speaker 1: here at the Lark Theater on forty at the time,

89
00:04:52,800 --> 00:04:55,560
Speaker 1: it was on or something like that, it's no longer here.

90
00:04:55,640 --> 00:04:59,440
Speaker 1: The COVID pandemic, you know, they crashed and closed during

91
00:04:59,480 --> 00:05:02,440
Speaker 1: that um. But then it was workshop after workshop. Then

92
00:05:02,480 --> 00:05:05,359
Speaker 1: we went up town to Hip Hop Theater Festival I

93
00:05:05,360 --> 00:05:08,720
Speaker 1: think it was, and they did that with dancers because

94
00:05:08,720 --> 00:05:12,440
Speaker 1: they kept saying that this story couldn't be told with actors.

95
00:05:12,520 --> 00:05:14,599
Speaker 1: Actors will never be able to do this, and so

96
00:05:14,680 --> 00:05:16,200
Speaker 1: a lot of the producers was like, oh, you have

97
00:05:16,279 --> 00:05:18,680
Speaker 1: to get dancers, and so Quatori was like, okay, let's see.

98
00:05:18,720 --> 00:05:21,560
Speaker 1: So they produced a workshop series with just the dancers.

99
00:05:21,960 --> 00:05:25,799
Speaker 1: But because it's so script and story heavy, it's hard

100
00:05:25,880 --> 00:05:29,080
Speaker 1: to do if you haven't had experience in terms of

101
00:05:29,120 --> 00:05:31,800
Speaker 1: the acting components, you know what I'm saying. But there's

102
00:05:31,920 --> 00:05:34,159
Speaker 1: room for everybody, and so she was trying to really

103
00:05:34,279 --> 00:05:37,960
Speaker 1: communicate the fact that this is a world about story

104
00:05:38,120 --> 00:05:40,599
Speaker 1: and these people in their lives. She wanted to bring

105
00:05:40,720 --> 00:05:43,279
Speaker 1: like that kind of relevance and credence to it. So

106
00:05:44,040 --> 00:05:47,240
Speaker 1: from there we went to Minnesota and it was like

107
00:05:47,360 --> 00:05:49,480
Speaker 1: there's time in between. So when people talk about the

108
00:05:49,520 --> 00:05:59,440
Speaker 1: time between season two one and two and like, let's

109
00:05:51,720 --> 00:06:02,120
Speaker 1: take absolutely because it takes time. That's a lot of workers,

110
00:06:02,160 --> 00:06:04,640
Speaker 1: ten months of our lives that we put together for

111
00:06:04,720 --> 00:06:07,440
Speaker 1: season two. And when we did it out in Minnesota,

112
00:06:07,880 --> 00:06:10,320
Speaker 1: there was a thing that I knew like, Oh, this

113
00:06:10,400 --> 00:06:13,040
Speaker 1: is really, really, really gonna be it. We were doing

114
00:06:13,080 --> 00:06:15,440
Speaker 1: a full on play. It was a mixed blood theater.

115
00:06:15,839 --> 00:06:17,840
Speaker 1: And what happened was at the end of act one

116
00:06:18,440 --> 00:06:21,279
Speaker 1: there was a fight that happens in the pink, similar

117
00:06:21,480 --> 00:06:23,640
Speaker 1: to you know, Murder Knight. It wasn't Murder Night, but

118
00:06:23,640 --> 00:06:25,800
Speaker 1: it was similar to that. And there were people in

119
00:06:25,839 --> 00:06:29,000
Speaker 1: the audience, myself and the actress that was playing Mercedes

120
00:06:29,040 --> 00:06:31,960
Speaker 1: at the time. We're hiding underneath the bleachers because it's

121
00:06:32,000 --> 00:06:34,359
Speaker 1: the theater. We're waiting for the exit. We're waiting for

122
00:06:34,400 --> 00:06:36,400
Speaker 1: the lights to go black, and like all right, let's

123
00:06:36,440 --> 00:06:37,960
Speaker 1: hit it to the dressing room to change fact too.

124
00:06:38,480 --> 00:06:41,160
Speaker 1: We're under there and the sound cues are going off.

125
00:06:43,040 --> 00:06:45,520
Speaker 1: They were got up running. There was like five folks

126
00:06:45,520 --> 00:06:49,400
Speaker 1: that got up. I was like, oh ship, motherfucker. The

127
00:06:49,480 --> 00:06:55,480
Speaker 1: girlfriends okay, girlfriends, was like calm down, this is a play,

128
00:06:56,040 --> 00:06:58,240
Speaker 1: and I was like what But because of the sound

129
00:06:58,279 --> 00:07:01,800
Speaker 1: of music, you know, there was live dancing in the play,

130
00:07:01,920 --> 00:07:04,320
Speaker 1: like so people get you. You get caught up in

131
00:07:04,360 --> 00:07:06,479
Speaker 1: the world, so they forgot that they were watching a

132
00:07:06,600 --> 00:07:11,960
Speaker 1: play versus they got everybody. They run, okay, terrible. I

133
00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:14,360
Speaker 1: said that when Bigger used to perform party and bullshit

134
00:07:14,960 --> 00:07:17,880
Speaker 1: and then he's like a fucking fight broke out. Anyway,

135
00:07:17,880 --> 00:07:20,520
Speaker 1: I've seen him perform that twice and both times people

136
00:07:20,600 --> 00:07:24,720
Speaker 1: ran because it was yeah, because it's a part of

137
00:07:24,720 --> 00:07:27,280
Speaker 1: the song where it really stops, and then they started

138
00:07:27,320 --> 00:07:30,160
Speaker 1: like play fighting on stage and so people were running.

139
00:07:30,280 --> 00:07:31,680
Speaker 1: I think I was at Jones Beach one time and

140
00:07:31,760 --> 00:07:34,680
Speaker 1: one time at Howard's homecoming and people ran out the

141
00:07:34,840 --> 00:07:38,000
Speaker 1: party and couldn't get back in afterwards. My friends was

142
00:07:38,000 --> 00:07:42,120
Speaker 1: outside crazy, did I listen. I'm got a band of

143
00:07:42,240 --> 00:07:45,360
Speaker 1: running when something happens, I like hide behind something because

144
00:07:45,360 --> 00:07:48,560
Speaker 1: that's like how you get trampled when you started running.

145
00:07:49,400 --> 00:07:51,920
Speaker 1: That's how it was in Detroit, like we have parties

146
00:07:51,920 --> 00:07:53,840
Speaker 1: and maybe like running something like I'm under the table.

147
00:07:54,400 --> 00:07:56,480
Speaker 1: Want to run because that's how you get you know,

148
00:07:56,560 --> 00:08:05,640

Speaker 1: and I want you all to be honest. Okay, okay,

152
00:08:14,320 --> 00:08:18,559

00:08:28,920 --> 00:08:31,240
Speaker 1: this guy is like, like, my wife knows the deal.

157
00:08:31,640 --> 00:08:34,280
Speaker 1: I'm gonna put you up. You ain't gonna worry about nothing.

158
00:08:34,400 --> 00:08:38,920
Speaker 1: You're good. Does that sound appealing in any way? You

159
00:08:39,000 --> 00:08:44,440
Speaker 1: know what? Yes? No, yes, no, because it's just like

160
00:08:44,440 --> 00:08:46,760
Speaker 1: I'm gonna get this little coin she you know. But

161
00:08:46,880 --> 00:08:49,880
Speaker 1: then it's just like, uh like Mercedes says, she got

162
00:08:49,880 --> 00:08:52,760
Speaker 1: a little integrity, you know. Like so it's it's that

163
00:08:52,840 --> 00:08:56,000
Speaker 1: moment of like the breaking of the bond of the marriage.

164
00:08:56,040 --> 00:08:58,120
Speaker 1: In my mind, I'm like, you don't want to do that.

165
00:08:58,200 --> 00:08:59,959
Speaker 1: But then I'm like, I think about me as a

166
00:09:00,040 --> 00:09:01,800
Speaker 1: character for my mom, and I'm like, if I had

167
00:09:01,840 --> 00:09:03,680
Speaker 1: the opportunity, what I do it? If I needed to

168
00:09:03,679 --> 00:09:06,160
Speaker 1: to take care of her? And Mercedes is thinking I

169
00:09:06,160 --> 00:09:08,720
Speaker 1: gotta try to get my daughter back right. So, yeah,

170
00:09:08,760 --> 00:09:11,800
Speaker 1: that's a hard one. I would just say, I'm not judging, yeah,

171
00:09:11,800 --> 00:09:14,400
Speaker 1: because even not from your position now obviously, but from

172
00:09:14,400 --> 00:09:17,120
Speaker 1: the position of that character, it's like, there's a lot

173
00:09:17,160 --> 00:09:19,160
Speaker 1: going on I could be taken care of. So let

174
00:09:19,160 --> 00:09:21,560
Speaker 1: me tell you. I had a situation like that back

175
00:09:21,559 --> 00:09:23,920
Speaker 1: when I first decided to move to Atlanta. My sugar

176
00:09:23,960 --> 00:09:26,319
Speaker 1: daddy at the time was like, don't go stay, I'll

177
00:09:26,320 --> 00:09:28,200
Speaker 1: put an apartment, I'll buy you whatever car, I'll pay

178
00:09:28,240 --> 00:09:30,040
Speaker 1: all your bills for two He was married, Yeah, and

179
00:09:30,080 --> 00:09:31,800
Speaker 1: he's like, figure out whatever you want to do. And

180
00:09:31,840 --> 00:09:34,600
Speaker 1: I thought you two years. But I'm like, no, I'm

181
00:09:34,600 --> 00:09:36,360
Speaker 1: going to Atlanta because all I can think of is

182
00:09:36,400 --> 00:09:38,600
Speaker 1: now you're going to be controlling me. Yeah. I got

183
00:09:38,640 --> 00:09:40,360
Speaker 1: this fly yes condo on the water, and I got

184
00:09:40,360 --> 00:09:42,719
Speaker 1: a bins or whatever car I want. But holidays, you

185
00:09:42,760 --> 00:09:44,679
Speaker 1: ain't gonna be around. I can't hand nobody up in

186
00:09:44,720 --> 00:09:47,000
Speaker 1: and out of here because you got a key and

187
00:09:46,880 --> 00:09:49,720
Speaker 1: and you know, so it's just like I'd rather, even

188
00:09:49,720 --> 00:09:52,920
Speaker 1: though that sounded amazing, I'd rather go on down this path,

189
00:09:53,200 --> 00:09:55,640
Speaker 1: down the yellow Big Road to Atlanta and and you know,

190
00:09:55,679 --> 00:09:57,520
Speaker 1: do my own thing, and yeah, that was a real

191
00:09:57,559 --> 00:10:02,880
Speaker 1: situation for me. What about your staths? Um well, he

192
00:10:02,920 --> 00:10:05,040
Speaker 1: wasn't bad looking either. You know, it would be different

193
00:10:05,040 --> 00:10:10,280
Speaker 1: if he was like terrible. Alright, so of course Angel

194
00:10:10,280 --> 00:10:14,080
Speaker 1: will put an extra sprinkle, so he's fine. He got

195
00:10:14,080 --> 00:10:17,560
Speaker 1: a six pack, and he agrees to pay for my bills.

196
00:10:19,120 --> 00:10:23,880
Speaker 1: I'm gonna have to say yes because because my bills

197
00:10:23,920 --> 00:10:25,800
Speaker 1: are really hot. So I'm gonna be like, wow, this

198
00:10:25,880 --> 00:10:28,160
Speaker 1: guy is really rich and his wife is okay with it.

199
00:10:28,200 --> 00:10:30,880
Speaker 1: Maybe she's not gonna be friends. Okay. Is there a

209
00:11:06,320 --> 00:11:09,040
Speaker 1: the house this season. So but first of all, my

210
00:11:09,120 --> 00:11:10,920
Speaker 1: body needed a poll in the house because when you

211
00:11:10,960 --> 00:11:13,959
Speaker 1: take a break, girl, it was like I couldn't climb again,

212
00:11:14,320 --> 00:11:16,400
Speaker 1: like two years off. I felt like I was starting

213
00:11:16,559 --> 00:11:20,520
Speaker 1: all over. So it definitely was hard. But it's been

214
00:11:20,559 --> 00:11:22,680
Speaker 1: amazing and it feels good too because we have girls

215
00:11:22,679 --> 00:11:24,920
Speaker 1: that are there. First of all, I'm a diehard Magic City,

216
00:11:24,960 --> 00:11:26,600
Speaker 1: Like I've not found the club yet that I love

217
00:11:26,640 --> 00:11:30,120
Speaker 1: better than Magic Like I have it, Like that's the

218
00:11:30,200 --> 00:11:32,720
Speaker 1: place that you might not know this, but g McGuire

219
00:11:32,840 --> 00:11:36,240
Speaker 1: was born at Magic City. Yeah, there was no Gi

220
00:11:36,360 --> 00:11:38,360
Speaker 1: McGuire before Magic City, and I was somebody. I was

221
00:11:38,400 --> 00:11:40,720
Speaker 1: somebody totally different. No, I loved it, and I remember

222
00:11:40,720 --> 00:11:43,679
Speaker 1: my first experience there, so I was just like these girls.

223
00:11:43,720 --> 00:11:45,600
Speaker 1: I remember like hanging from the celing. I was like, oh,

224
00:11:45,720 --> 00:11:47,800
Speaker 1: now this is what I'm talking about. It was a

225
00:11:47,800 --> 00:11:49,760
Speaker 1: different experience and I thought what a strip club was.

226
00:11:49,840 --> 00:11:52,719
Speaker 1: So it's been amazing to just learn it and then

227
00:11:52,800 --> 00:11:54,360
Speaker 1: like to look over at the girls that do it

228
00:11:54,360 --> 00:11:56,880
Speaker 1: and they're like, yeah, that's it right there, Like it

229
00:11:56,920 --> 00:11:59,040
Speaker 1: feels good, like even if all these cars in my body.

230
00:11:59,040 --> 00:12:01,320
Speaker 1: But I'm like, but I did this, yeah, and good

231
00:12:01,320 --> 00:12:05,160
Speaker 1: at doing it. When I was a stripper back in

232
00:12:05,160 --> 00:12:06,560
Speaker 1: the days, I used to be able to do not

233
00:12:06,640 --> 00:12:10,960
Speaker 1: what does but like a little faig poultrick. It's been

234
00:12:11,600 --> 00:12:16,400
Speaker 1: now forget it rever like you said when you stop

235
00:12:17,240 --> 00:12:22,480
Speaker 1: over and it's paint for I'm about us to have bruises. Yes, yes,

236
00:12:22,960 --> 00:12:24,839
Speaker 1: I love it. But the thing about it to me

237
00:12:24,960 --> 00:12:30,000
Speaker 1: is that it's better than the gym. It is best

238
00:12:30,080 --> 00:12:33,080
Speaker 1: on that pole. It's the best work out the classes

239
00:12:33,160 --> 00:12:37,200
Speaker 1: and afterwards. Because yeah, you absolutely like somebody beat you

240
00:12:37,200 --> 00:12:40,640
Speaker 1: in a dark alley with a bat like, but that

241
00:12:40,679 --> 00:12:43,319
Speaker 1: body be ripped up in all these callouses? What's you

242
00:12:43,440 --> 00:12:47,000
Speaker 1: kind of callous over? Real good? You'd be? Let me

243
00:12:47,000 --> 00:12:50,920
Speaker 1: ask you a quest exactly on the whole have you

244
00:12:53,960 --> 00:12:59,240
Speaker 1: she's watching that type of poe we're talking about that

245
00:12:59,280 --> 00:13:06,920
Speaker 1: crime now chrome cholate. But okay, so you had a

246
00:13:06,920 --> 00:13:11,080
Speaker 1: cute relationship, right, not acute relationship. See how she just

247
00:13:11,280 --> 00:13:16,080
Speaker 1: missed the relationship calling him back right now. My whole

248
00:13:16,080 --> 00:13:19,600
Speaker 1: thing is this, could you understand where murders coming from.

249
00:13:19,600 --> 00:13:22,000
Speaker 1: He's trying to start his career as a rapper, and

250
00:13:22,040 --> 00:13:24,640
Speaker 1: it's not an easy thing to do because hip hop

251
00:13:24,679 --> 00:13:27,839
Speaker 1: can be really homophobic, and he's around people that are,

252
00:13:28,080 --> 00:13:30,839
Speaker 1: you know, saying things that he feels like, Okay, I

253
00:13:30,840 --> 00:13:32,680
Speaker 1: gotta play a certain role in order for me to

254
00:13:32,760 --> 00:13:35,320
Speaker 1: even obtain any type of success. I do feel like

255
00:13:35,320 --> 00:13:38,880
Speaker 1: things are different now, but you know, just set in

256
00:13:38,920 --> 00:13:42,400
Speaker 1: that time period there in the South, like I think

257
00:13:42,440 --> 00:13:44,400
Speaker 1: even the time, but I think the region because you

258
00:13:44,440 --> 00:13:47,960
Speaker 1: just mentioned the South, right, so something like down down

259
00:13:48,120 --> 00:13:51,240
Speaker 1: like the type of music that you do, so like

260
00:13:51,320 --> 00:13:54,160
Speaker 1: Little Murder does trap rap right, trap wrap is different

261
00:13:54,160 --> 00:13:56,000
Speaker 1: from like pop rap, you know what I'm saying. I

262
00:13:56,040 --> 00:13:58,840
Speaker 1: think in a pop rap it's a little more acceptable.

263
00:13:59,080 --> 00:14:02,920
Speaker 1: But to me Um as the character, I think that

264
00:14:03,000 --> 00:14:05,560
Speaker 1: you know, there's a lot that Uncle Clifford has been

265
00:14:06,200 --> 00:14:08,600
Speaker 1: has worked really hard and a long time to like

266
00:14:08,679 --> 00:14:12,240
Speaker 1: accept who she is and all of the things. And

267
00:14:12,559 --> 00:14:14,640
Speaker 1: once you get a piece of knowing who you are,

268
00:14:15,679 --> 00:14:18,240
Speaker 1: for somebody to come along in a relationship, regardless of

269
00:14:18,240 --> 00:14:20,280
Speaker 1: how much money they got, how much how lost they got,

270
00:14:20,280 --> 00:14:22,520
Speaker 1: how much loss, how fine they may be, it's like,

271
00:14:22,560 --> 00:14:24,840
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna give that away because it took me

272
00:14:24,920 --> 00:14:28,360
Speaker 1: too long to get to this level of knowing myself.

273
00:14:28,720 --> 00:14:32,640
Speaker 1: That's how I feel as Uncle Clifford, as Nico, I understand.

274
00:14:33,200 --> 00:14:35,920
Speaker 1: I think that for me there's a level of just

275
00:14:36,000 --> 00:14:40,520
Speaker 1: straight authenticity that can kind of cross those boundaries. I

276
00:14:40,520 --> 00:14:47,080
Speaker 1: think my size affects a lot of people's views of

277
00:14:47,240 --> 00:14:51,200
Speaker 1: Nico as a black gay man. Um. I think being

278
00:14:51,320 --> 00:14:54,760
Speaker 1: from Detroit, like you could tell like, well, I don't

279
00:14:54,760 --> 00:14:56,480
Speaker 1: know if I can really funk with her name, you know,

280
00:14:56,680 --> 00:14:58,640
Speaker 1: like you know he ain't gonna just be no easy

281
00:14:59,160 --> 00:15:01,280
Speaker 1: or you know what I'm saying, and you're gonna try, right.

282
00:15:01,680 --> 00:15:04,240
Speaker 1: But I also like, I'm a warm person, but I

283
00:15:04,240 --> 00:15:06,440
Speaker 1: am also the one like, don't cross me, you know

284
00:15:06,480 --> 00:15:09,400
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. And I think that a level of

285
00:15:09,800 --> 00:15:11,800
Speaker 1: I don't have to perform. I don't have to perform

286
00:15:11,840 --> 00:15:15,520
Speaker 1: my blackness, my gayness, or my any nous for you.

287
00:15:15,960 --> 00:15:19,520
Speaker 1: So I think sometimes that kind of comes across. So

288
00:15:20,360 --> 00:15:23,320
Speaker 1: authenticity is the key. Can you forgive? You thinking Uncle

289
00:15:23,320 --> 00:15:28,400
Speaker 1: Clifford forgive for real? Uh right there. I think it's

290
00:15:28,440 --> 00:15:32,720
Speaker 1: more so about like something has to happen, Like you're talking.

291
00:15:32,840 --> 00:15:34,880
Speaker 1: You can say sorry all you want, but what what's

292
00:15:34,880 --> 00:15:36,920
Speaker 1: the what? How are you backing that up? Because you

293
00:15:37,000 --> 00:15:38,800
Speaker 1: saying sorry on Murder Night? You know a little murder

294
00:15:38,840 --> 00:15:48,840
Speaker 1: said sorry on Murder Night? Right? Trying too though, because

295
00:15:48,880 --> 00:15:53,120
Speaker 1: you embarrassed me in public? Well what she said? What

296
00:15:53,240 --> 00:15:54,680
Speaker 1: she said? And I think a lot of us have

297
00:15:55,160 --> 00:15:57,840
Speaker 1: had an experience like that where somebody has maybe played

298
00:15:57,880 --> 00:16:00,480
Speaker 1: you like you have your heart, you know, and it's

299
00:16:00,560 --> 00:16:02,360
Speaker 1: like wait, no, no no, no, no no, no, like you really

300
00:16:02,720 --> 00:16:06,760
Speaker 1: you're sucking up you, You're really messing up, like the

301
00:16:06,800 --> 00:16:10,360
Speaker 1: way you're coming at me, you're not being full and truthful.

302
00:16:10,760 --> 00:16:14,160
Speaker 1: So I'm out. But I think that for them, those

303
00:16:14,200 --> 00:16:16,600
Speaker 1: two characters, I think that there's some life that has

304
00:16:16,640 --> 00:16:18,960
Speaker 1: to kind of happen this season with them being in

305
00:16:18,960 --> 00:16:21,840
Speaker 1: the pandemic. I think that there's a lot of, like

306
00:16:22,040 --> 00:16:25,440
Speaker 1: we call it the pandemic pining, you know, where you

307
00:16:25,960 --> 00:16:29,800
Speaker 1: touch hunk, Yeah, everybody, you just wanted to be touched,

308
00:16:29,800 --> 00:16:31,560
Speaker 1: whether you're in a relationship or not. I know, I

309
00:16:31,640 --> 00:16:36,400
Speaker 1: was stuck here on Street. I was tent stuck literally

310
00:16:36,440 --> 00:16:38,880
Speaker 1: when the pandemic everything shut down and New York was

311
00:16:38,880 --> 00:16:44,000
Speaker 1: shut down, down down, it was like scared ye, it

312
00:16:44,040 --> 00:16:48,360
Speaker 1: was pleasu. All these zombies were all side It's for real.

313
00:16:48,480 --> 00:16:50,200
Speaker 1: I like to look out the window and see four

314
00:16:50,320 --> 00:16:53,760
Speaker 1: second Street and never happened. I was like, this really

315
00:16:53,760 --> 00:16:57,520
Speaker 1: feels like the Walking Dead for real, real exactly. I

316
00:16:57,600 --> 00:17:00,360
Speaker 1: was like, what's really about to go down? But I

317
00:17:00,400 --> 00:17:02,880
Speaker 1: found myself cooking because I like to cook. You know

318
00:17:02,920 --> 00:17:06,560
Speaker 1: what I'm saying, I gotta keep the thingstic. But there's

319
00:17:06,600 --> 00:17:10,439
Speaker 1: nobody here, and you're over here roasting these these nuts

320
00:17:10,440 --> 00:17:12,480
Speaker 1: to put on this peanut butter and jelly sandwich with

321
00:17:12,560 --> 00:17:21,040
Speaker 1: these fresh saying. I was cooking, and I was taking

322
00:17:21,040 --> 00:17:23,359
Speaker 1: these extra layers and doing the cooking. I was like,

323
00:17:23,560 --> 00:17:26,520
Speaker 1: you're not doing Julia Child's work. But there's nobody here.

324
00:17:27,240 --> 00:17:30,240
Speaker 1: There's nobody that's going to appreciate this. So I feel

325
00:17:30,280 --> 00:17:33,360
Speaker 1: like that layer of like the pining and the pandemic,

326
00:17:33,359 --> 00:17:36,080
Speaker 1: it makes it harder and mix. You sometimes mix them

327
00:17:36,320 --> 00:17:39,919
Speaker 1: reckless decisions. You know, as we see everybody knows somebody

328
00:17:39,920 --> 00:17:43,359
Speaker 1: calls somebody there, we go shut up, Like I sent

335
00:18:08,680 --> 00:18:10,879
Speaker 1: you know, it wasn't always just about romance, so you know,

336
00:18:10,920 --> 00:18:12,639
Speaker 1: like you know, sex or nothing like that was just like,

Speaker 1: too much of what happens. Um as we know, there's

369
00:20:25,160 --> 00:20:29,280

Speaker 1: I would have loved a little one two stuff. I

374
00:20:42,960 --> 00:20:44,840
Speaker 1: would have But I mean, if they would to ask

375
00:20:44,840 --> 00:20:47,560
Speaker 1: you to dance, I would have been ready. However, I

376
00:20:47,600 --> 00:20:53,680
Speaker 1: do talk, and I have some conversation with Mississippi and um,

377
00:20:54,359 --> 00:20:56,639
Speaker 1: it's it's me and a few other legends. In the

378
00:20:56,640 --> 00:21:00,200
Speaker 1: Strip Club game. We all know and love. So oh

379
00:21:00,240 --> 00:21:05,040
Speaker 1: my god, I'm so excited. I'm so excited for you too, honey,

380
00:21:05,040 --> 00:21:11,160
Speaker 1: and you look good. We can talk about it. Yeah,

381
00:21:12,600 --> 00:21:17,160
Speaker 1: I did a d R and also UM for this interview,

382
00:21:17,880 --> 00:21:23,000
Speaker 1: this one through five. What is it for you when

383
00:21:23,040 --> 00:21:25,359
Speaker 1: you say, like, I get to be myself? It would

384
00:21:25,359 --> 00:21:27,199
Speaker 1: it be more were you know, more nervous if you

385
00:21:27,200 --> 00:21:30,480
Speaker 1: have to like play a character or what? UM? I

386
00:21:30,520 --> 00:21:33,600
Speaker 1: think playing the character would have been a nervous situation

387
00:21:33,640 --> 00:21:35,360
Speaker 1: for me because I'm not an actual I mean even

388
00:21:35,400 --> 00:21:37,720
Speaker 1: though as entertainers, you know, we have to put on

389
00:21:37,800 --> 00:21:40,439
Speaker 1: our stage face, right, so I probably think that I

390
00:21:40,480 --> 00:21:42,760
Speaker 1: definitely know actually that I would have been able to

391
00:21:42,840 --> 00:21:45,080
Speaker 1: help hold it down had they given me a character.

392
00:21:45,480 --> 00:21:48,480
Speaker 1: But it's it's so much of an honor because as

393
00:21:48,480 --> 00:21:51,200
Speaker 1: a dancer, and y'all, y'all everybody knows this, we get

394
00:21:51,200 --> 00:21:53,840
Speaker 1: put down for using our body to make money. And

395
00:21:53,880 --> 00:21:55,320
Speaker 1: they think there were hors and we stuck in digg

396
00:21:55,320 --> 00:21:56,840
Speaker 1: in the back room, and you know, even though some

397
00:21:56,880 --> 00:22:01,840
Speaker 1: girls do but all of us don't ship club. They

398
00:22:01,840 --> 00:22:06,320
Speaker 1: think that. So they think that dancers are uneducated. They

399
00:22:06,359 --> 00:22:09,480
Speaker 1: think dancers have pimps, They think dancers are drug addicted.

400
00:22:09,520 --> 00:22:11,800
Speaker 1: They think dancers don't take care of their children, and

401
00:22:11,800 --> 00:22:14,480
Speaker 1: that they are you know, sleeping on couches and arabis,

402
00:22:14,520 --> 00:22:16,040
Speaker 1: and they spend all their money on we eve and

403
00:22:16,040 --> 00:22:18,679
Speaker 1: whatever else and don't really take care of themselves as women.

404
00:22:18,760 --> 00:22:22,520
Speaker 1: And I'm all about changing the narrative, you know, And

405
00:22:22,720 --> 00:22:25,160
Speaker 1: this show is all about changing the narrative. This show

406
00:22:25,200 --> 00:22:28,720
Speaker 1: gives you an inside look on the life of an entertainer,

407
00:22:28,800 --> 00:22:31,159
Speaker 1: the life of a club owner, what actually happens behind

408
00:22:31,400 --> 00:22:33,240
Speaker 1: the curtain when we in the dressing room, and so

409
00:22:33,280 --> 00:22:36,200
Speaker 1: for so on. So to be able to be honored

410
00:22:36,320 --> 00:22:41,479
Speaker 1: on a scripted television show on such a bit network,

411

Speaker 1: amazing opportunity and I'm so grateful, grateful, I'm so grateful.

421
00:23:16,000 --> 00:23:17,840

437
00:24:01,320 --> 00:24:09,080
Speaker 1: I thought I was coming to the pink season three,

438
00:24:10,119 --> 00:24:12,640
Speaker 1: I was just say, who says that you're not gonna

444
00:24:43,520 --> 00:24:45,760
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, Yes, because it is. But

445
00:24:45,920 --> 00:24:47,840
Speaker 1: you know, one of the things I feel like this

446
00:24:47,920 --> 00:24:51,200
Speaker 1: season Katori and like the writers, they were so intentional

447
00:24:51,800 --> 00:24:55,080
Speaker 1: and honoring. She had this idea of like standing in

448
00:24:55,160 --> 00:24:57,600
Speaker 1: the sun, so like when you look at the lighting

449
00:24:57,760 --> 00:25:01,040
Speaker 1: and things like that, you always you're gonna see a

450
00:25:01,160 --> 00:25:06,440
Speaker 1: more dramatic um and intentional with the look of the show,

451
00:25:06,600 --> 00:25:09,800
Speaker 1: that whole Delta noir Field. And she said this thing

452
00:25:09,920 --> 00:25:11,440
Speaker 1: to me one time. She was like, I just want

453
00:25:11,480 --> 00:25:15,639
Speaker 1: to be able to give us our crowns, you know,

454
00:25:16,080 --> 00:25:18,760
Speaker 1: and so literally, like all of the different people and

455
00:25:18,840 --> 00:25:22,200
Speaker 1: communities that the show represents, whether it's the dance community,

456
00:25:22,240 --> 00:25:24,520
Speaker 1: whether it's the rap community, whether it's the gangsters in

457
00:25:24,600 --> 00:25:27,879
Speaker 1: our in our hoods, whether it's the lgbt Q plus folks,

458
00:25:28,119 --> 00:25:33,800
Speaker 1: everybody in our community gets celebrated this season. Politicians. Yeah,

459
00:25:38,560 --> 00:25:41,359
Speaker 1: So like that was so important and intentional. So like

460
00:25:41,920 --> 00:25:46,159
Speaker 1: I was like, yes and yes and yes. Because we

461
00:25:46,200 --> 00:25:50,119
Speaker 1: even mentioned um in episode one. Yes, you know what

462
00:25:50,600 --> 00:25:54,200
Speaker 1: they took it out. That was actually the pilot presentation. Yes, yes, yes, yes,

463
00:25:54,520 --> 00:25:58,160
Speaker 1: and yeah, and I was I was hoping that that continued.

464
00:25:58,160 --> 00:26:00,920
Speaker 1: Don't but me ye. Now, let me ask you this.

465
00:26:01,160 --> 00:26:04,320
Speaker 1: Another thing that happens, right, is how involved you get

466
00:26:04,600 --> 00:26:08,080
Speaker 1: in somebody else's relationship when you see that things aren't

467
00:26:08,080 --> 00:26:11,400
Speaker 1: going well, Like when do you say, okay, let me interfair,

468
00:26:11,480 --> 00:26:13,600
Speaker 1: Like we see what's going on with keys Sean and

469
00:26:13,760 --> 00:26:17,879
Speaker 1: Derek and Derek right, and you know she's coming and

470
00:26:18,119 --> 00:26:22,000
Speaker 1: she's defending her man, even though he's abusive towards her.

471
00:26:22,560 --> 00:26:24,879
Speaker 1: So if that happens in real life, when do you

472
00:26:24,920 --> 00:26:26,480
Speaker 1: say I gotta step in and get involved or do

473
00:26:26,560 --> 00:26:30,959
Speaker 1: you mind your business? That's a tough one. I think

474
00:26:31,000 --> 00:26:32,680
Speaker 1: you need to know who you're talking to first, because

475
00:26:32,720 --> 00:26:35,520
Speaker 1: you know you got those those some friends. Like for me,

476
00:26:36,040 --> 00:26:39,040
Speaker 1: it's gonna hurt me, but tell me, tell me the truth.

477
00:26:39,440 --> 00:26:42,119
Speaker 1: I might be mad, I'm a process it, but I

478
00:26:42,200 --> 00:26:43,680
Speaker 1: want to know. I'm gonna be more mad if you

479
00:26:43,720 --> 00:26:45,600
Speaker 1: don't tell me. Then you have some friends you know

480
00:26:45,680 --> 00:26:47,840
Speaker 1: they're not ready to hear that truth yet, but you

481
00:26:47,920 --> 00:26:49,440
Speaker 1: also want to have their backs. So I feel like

482
00:26:49,480 --> 00:26:51,640
Speaker 1: in those cases, you just gotta be there, like I'm

483
00:26:51,680 --> 00:26:54,399
Speaker 1: waiting outside the door, yep, and I'm ready or whenever

484
00:26:54,800 --> 00:26:56,600
Speaker 1: if you want to fall, I got you here to

485
00:26:56,680 --> 00:26:59,560
Speaker 1: catch you, sis um. But also trying to let them

486
00:26:59,600 --> 00:27:02,040
Speaker 1: know some people just saying ready to hear it. Yeah,

487
00:27:02,480 --> 00:27:05,200
Speaker 1: I think also you gotta h in speaking to that

488
00:27:05,400 --> 00:27:09,440
Speaker 1: person and having the conversations know why they may be

489
00:27:09,520 --> 00:27:12,639
Speaker 1: doing it, like or find out the why. When I

490
00:27:12,720 --> 00:27:16,840
Speaker 1: think about Keyshan, especially as Uncle Clifford, we have had

491
00:27:16,920 --> 00:27:21,199
Speaker 1: conversations that told me, oh, this is why you are

492
00:27:21,280 --> 00:27:25,920
Speaker 1: in this situation, and it's it's much greater than just

493
00:27:26,160 --> 00:27:29,280
Speaker 1: the fact that like he's just a man, you know,

494
00:27:29,520 --> 00:27:32,040
Speaker 1: like you know, but that's more than just her baby's father.

495
00:27:32,520 --> 00:27:35,600
Speaker 1: There's a reason why he is her baby's father. There's

496
00:27:35,600 --> 00:27:38,320
Speaker 1: a reason why she crossed that color line, especially in

497
00:27:38,359 --> 00:27:44,880
Speaker 1: the South, you know, crazy when they found out man,

498
00:27:45,720 --> 00:27:47,520
Speaker 1: But is it any better if it was a black

499
00:27:47,600 --> 00:27:53,639
Speaker 1: man exactly? Actually like that twist, yeah, because you know

500
00:27:53,800 --> 00:27:58,000
Speaker 1: you just figured accustomed to dysfunction, right, you know what

501
00:27:58,040 --> 00:28:00,800
Speaker 1: I mean. I know Shannon, who plays Keyshan, has said

502
00:28:00,840 --> 00:28:02,680
Speaker 1: that a lot too, because she would get comments and

503
00:28:02,760 --> 00:28:04,800
Speaker 1: she's just like, I can't believe you lett a white

504
00:28:04,840 --> 00:28:06,440
Speaker 1: man beat your ass, and they would say the turn

505
00:28:06,520 --> 00:28:09,040
Speaker 1: she's like a man a man, A man is a man.

506
00:28:09,480 --> 00:28:14,280
Speaker 1: It doesn't matter even if you're yeah, and it's not okay.

507
00:28:14,680 --> 00:28:17,520
Speaker 1: Domestic abuse is if your white fiend that came from

508
00:28:17,560 --> 00:28:21,840
Speaker 1: the white guys with THEE and they would beat their

509
00:28:21,880 --> 00:28:25,000
Speaker 1: wise and they started calling the white girls Puerto Ricans.

510
00:28:29,840 --> 00:28:32,120
Speaker 1: But that's when that's a bill Callaway said, And what's

511
00:28:32,160 --> 00:28:33,560
Speaker 1: love got to do with it? It's not all right

512
00:28:33,600 --> 00:28:36,600
Speaker 1: to let some motherfucker pound on you, yound what I mean?

513
00:28:38,160 --> 00:28:40,120
Speaker 1: Have you ever had to like interference? I had a

514
00:28:40,200 --> 00:28:43,560
Speaker 1: friend that was getting abused, and when I tell you, like,

515
00:28:43,680 --> 00:28:45,760
Speaker 1: her mom called me, can you talk to her? And

516
00:28:46,080 --> 00:28:47,920
Speaker 1: everybody they tried to talk to her about it, she

517
00:28:48,000 --> 00:28:51,120
Speaker 1: would just cut you off, you know, so something and

518
00:28:51,160 --> 00:28:52,680
Speaker 1: then people feel like, oh, you're not a good friend

519
00:28:52,760 --> 00:28:55,080
Speaker 1: if you don't say something. But then I was also

520
00:28:55,160 --> 00:28:57,800
Speaker 1: aware that everybody and her family, her friends tried to

521
00:28:57,800 --> 00:29:00,240
Speaker 1: talk to her and she wouldn't listen to anybody, And

522
00:29:00,360 --> 00:29:02,720
Speaker 1: so I just was like, okay, I just tell it. Look,

523
00:29:02,760 --> 00:29:05,560
Speaker 1: whatever you do, I'm supportive of whatever decisions you make.

524
00:29:05,600 --> 00:29:07,440
Speaker 1: I just want you to know him here because she

525
00:29:07,600 --> 00:29:10,080
Speaker 1: wasn't ready, and all it's gonna do is make her

526
00:29:10,160 --> 00:29:14,440
Speaker 1: not want to communicate or not want to speak have somebody. Yeah,

527
00:29:15,200 --> 00:29:16,960
Speaker 1: and the next thing, you know, you'll not friends no more,

528
00:29:17,080 --> 00:29:19,120
Speaker 1: you know, and then he hates you too, so now

529
00:29:19,160 --> 00:29:21,680
Speaker 1: you really can't be around her and the kids. But

530
00:29:21,800 --> 00:29:24,040
Speaker 1: she did eventually have to leave him, and I was

531
00:29:24,320 --> 00:29:26,640
Speaker 1: there ready to drive at the police station to get

532
00:29:26,680 --> 00:29:32,760
Speaker 1: that standing or my best friends. She she caught this

533
00:29:32,960 --> 00:29:36,640
Speaker 1: guy that she was so in love with during the

534
00:29:36,760 --> 00:29:40,240
Speaker 1: most she called him with dating man. She caught him

535
00:29:40,600 --> 00:29:43,520
Speaker 1: doing a lot of different things, and she stood around

536
00:29:43,600 --> 00:29:46,080
Speaker 1: and some of her friends that we all we you know,

537
00:29:46,160 --> 00:29:48,400
Speaker 1: we grew up together. So a lot of the girls

538
00:29:48,440 --> 00:29:50,800
Speaker 1: couldn't take it anymore and just stopped talking to her.

539
00:29:51,160 --> 00:29:53,960
Speaker 1: And that was always my response to her, like whatever

540
00:29:54,000 --> 00:29:57,560
Speaker 1: your decisions, I supported, you know, like I'm old, I'm

541
00:29:57,600 --> 00:30:01,240
Speaker 1: not gonna judge your decisions. That's what to her though. Yeah,

542
00:30:01,600 --> 00:30:05,520
Speaker 1: I tried to support, but it worked out. Now she's

543
00:30:05,520 --> 00:30:11,000
Speaker 1: with a better guy, more compatible match for hers. Looking

544
00:30:11,040 --> 00:30:16,760
Speaker 1: like nowadays, now when you're lean over that shoulder, now,

545
00:30:18,400 --> 00:30:21,400
Speaker 1: what's crazy? Like for real, a lot of people feel

546
00:30:21,440 --> 00:30:23,640
Speaker 1: like I'm uncle Cquifford in real life and they come

547
00:30:23,760 --> 00:30:27,600
Speaker 1: with this I'm sure fixed my life like Yana kind

548
00:30:27,600 --> 00:30:30,120
Speaker 1: of a thing going on. So there's that, and then

549
00:30:30,320 --> 00:30:33,040
Speaker 1: I have gotten a few that's like, you know, some

550
00:30:33,600 --> 00:30:36,280
Speaker 1: raunchy pictures like I'm trying, I'm trying to get fluid

551
00:30:36,320 --> 00:30:39,640
Speaker 1: out and I was like, dude, I'm trying to get

552
00:30:40,040 --> 00:30:42,640
Speaker 1: literally and I'm gon telling those were some white folks

553
00:30:42,720 --> 00:30:44,280
Speaker 1: that sent that to me. And I was like, no

554
00:30:44,440 --> 00:30:49,600
Speaker 1: way to hold this reverse slavery? What's going on? You

555
00:30:49,680 --> 00:30:52,920
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, like they own some old fetish situation,

556
00:30:53,840 --> 00:30:57,480
Speaker 1: but those they get to the restricted how restrict? Don't

557
00:30:57,480 --> 00:31:01,240
Speaker 1: get back? What's that? At the same he ain't owned

558
00:31:01,320 --> 00:31:04,080
Speaker 1: social media, he's supposed to think, no, no, don't tell

559
00:31:04,080 --> 00:31:06,240
Speaker 1: me what. I never shake people because then they don't

560
00:31:06,240 --> 00:31:08,720
Speaker 1: know they blocks that protect you also could just send

561
00:31:08,760 --> 00:31:10,320
Speaker 1: them to the message request where you can see it

562
00:31:10,360 --> 00:31:12,520
Speaker 1: all they don't know you saw it. That's where I'm see.

563
00:31:12,560 --> 00:31:18,080
Speaker 1: I don't be doing all that. She called a number.

564
00:31:20,520 --> 00:31:23,440
Speaker 1: I'm not all there's a partner like social media for

565
00:31:23,560 --> 00:31:26,720
Speaker 1: me that it becomes a little much, especially because of

566
00:31:26,800 --> 00:31:30,120
Speaker 1: the show, like I'm giving my all, I am bearing

567
00:31:30,200 --> 00:31:33,720

Speaker 1: you know what I mean. And I feel like that's

571
00:31:42,520 --> 00:31:45,160
Speaker 1: just my healthy way of doing it, because for me,

572
00:31:45,320 --> 00:31:48,560
Speaker 1: what's most important is my art. The social the posting,

Speaker 1: male review show? Yes, I have not, and I hear

644
00:35:52,440 --> 00:35:54,359
Speaker 1: that there's a good one in New York. My friend

645
00:35:54,400 --> 00:35:56,239
Speaker 1: I've already told me about it. Supposedly it's a good

646
00:35:56,239 --> 00:35:57,840
Speaker 1: one out here. I have not been to it. But

647
00:35:57,960 --> 00:35:59,719
Speaker 1: you know what, when I got married, so glad I'm

648
00:35:59,719 --> 00:36:03,120
Speaker 1: out of that up when I got Yes, when I

649
00:36:03,239 --> 00:36:05,840
Speaker 1: got married, I never wanted the male. I like the

650
00:36:05,960 --> 00:36:09,360
Speaker 1: females better, Like I don't want to swing like the

651
00:36:09,400 --> 00:36:12,600
Speaker 1: women until they go. Really, that's the thing you haven't

652
00:36:12,640 --> 00:36:14,960
Speaker 1: been yet. I thought that too. I hosted a male

653
00:36:15,000 --> 00:36:17,000

Speaker 1: never probably would have went if I didn't host. But

655
00:36:19,000 --> 00:36:20,759
Speaker 1: it was actually really fun. And I've always wanted to

656
00:36:20,760 --> 00:36:23,080
Speaker 1: do a lip service like male review show because I

657
00:36:23,160 --> 00:36:25,840
Speaker 1: feel like we don't have those like with the guys,

658
00:36:26,000 --> 00:36:33,160
Speaker 1: because they actually do a lot of tricks to they do. Yes, yeah, alright,

Speaker 1: has a guy that normally comes into regular, Yeah, they're regular, Like,

696
00:38:39,760 --> 00:38:42,200
Speaker 1: but then another woman might approach tell me like how

697
00:38:42,320 --> 00:38:45,520
Speaker 1: this works, so we know so case by case scenario.

698
00:38:45,840 --> 00:38:49,000
Speaker 1: But normally, if there's a regular that comes in the

699
00:38:49,040 --> 00:38:53,399
Speaker 1: club on the on the regular basis and he's always there,

700
00:38:53,480 --> 00:38:56,080
Speaker 1: you know that he's such and such a right, So

701
00:38:56,360 --> 00:38:59,440
Speaker 1: you're not going if you uh, an established girl and

702
00:38:59,520 --> 00:39:01,800

00:39:07,640 --> 00:39:10,440
Speaker 1: in here to see you. But you know, all the time,

706
00:39:10,600 --> 00:39:12,759
Speaker 1: sometimes it might be a new girl. You don't know

707
00:39:12,920 --> 00:39:15,719
Speaker 1: that Coach came to see Sadi's so she might, you know,

708
00:39:16,360 --> 00:39:17,759
Speaker 1: go on and shake a little try to shake a

709
00:39:17,760 --> 00:39:20,080
Speaker 1: little tail further. And it's usually the guy that will

710
00:39:20,120 --> 00:39:23,040
Speaker 1: be like, I'm here to see you know, a specific person,

711
00:39:23,480 --> 00:39:25,359
Speaker 1: or they might you know, buy your drink and get

712
00:39:25,400 --> 00:39:28,600
Speaker 1: real a little conversation. Yeah, and just past the time.

713
00:39:28,719 --> 00:39:31,880
Speaker 1: But it's it's a respecting you know, and it's kind

714
00:39:31,920 --> 00:39:34,120
Speaker 1: of like an unspoken rule, like you're not about to

715
00:39:34,120 --> 00:39:36,320
Speaker 1: step on the next next bitch told because you wouldn't

716
00:39:36,320 --> 00:39:37,960
Speaker 1: want her to do it to you, but would make

717
00:39:38,000 --> 00:39:40,360
Speaker 1: you not like somebody. Oh, it's a lot of reasons

718
00:39:40,960 --> 00:39:43,680
Speaker 1: be line stealing, stealing. I think we'll be the number

719
00:39:43,719 --> 00:39:45,680
Speaker 1: one reason. Now, how is it stealing work? I always

720
00:39:45,680 --> 00:39:49,600
Speaker 1: wondered that because I went Spider took me and did

721
00:39:49,800 --> 00:39:53,440
Speaker 1: research before episode one of season one, and she just

722
00:39:53,520 --> 00:39:56,160
Speaker 1: made me pay attention to the girls and just watch stuff.

723
00:39:56,640 --> 00:39:59,399
Speaker 1: And she was like, watch that because like people would

724
00:39:59,440 --> 00:40:01,040
Speaker 1: like trying to move the money and with the foot

725
00:40:01,080 --> 00:40:03,520
Speaker 1: and stuff, and I'm like, are you bold? Yeah, So

726
00:40:03,640 --> 00:40:05,520
Speaker 1: the girl the customers be still in a lot. I

727
00:40:05,680 --> 00:40:08,040
Speaker 1: used to watch. I used to watch it men customers.

728
00:40:08,080 --> 00:40:10,480
Speaker 1: So you know, during the time that I worked at

729
00:40:10,520 --> 00:40:13,160
Speaker 1: Magic City, it was from two thousand five to two

730
00:40:13,200 --> 00:40:17,800
Speaker 1: thousand eleven, so in that six seven, eight nine period,

731
00:40:18,000 --> 00:40:20,879
Speaker 1: it was the big make It Rain with the Little

732
00:40:20,920 --> 00:40:22,800
Speaker 1: Wayne song, and you know all of the make It

733
00:40:22,920 --> 00:40:25,120
Speaker 1: Rain error happened during that time at Jeez coming and

734
00:40:25,160 --> 00:40:27,120
Speaker 1: Spen in thirty five thousand or whatever the case, right,

735
00:40:27,520 --> 00:40:29,799
Speaker 1: So it would literally it would literally be a guy

736
00:40:30,719 --> 00:40:32,800
Speaker 1: and I remember this one specificalities to come in the

737
00:40:32,840 --> 00:40:34,279
Speaker 1: club all the time and we would call him that

738
00:40:34,360 --> 00:40:39,960
Speaker 1: still in that nigger cousin the body, remember that. So

739
00:40:40,120 --> 00:40:42,520
Speaker 1: he would have a sweat towel, so he would have

740
00:40:42,600 --> 00:40:44,040
Speaker 1: his sweatsower. He would wipe his head and then he

741
00:40:44,080 --> 00:40:45,560
Speaker 1: would drop the towel on the ground and when he

742
00:40:45,600 --> 00:40:49,520
Speaker 1: would pick it up, he would pick up We gotta

743
00:40:49,800 --> 00:40:52,880
Speaker 1: remember this, no, I mean he would pick up ten

744
00:40:52,920 --> 00:40:59,560
Speaker 1: dollars at a time, so near the female starrted to

745
00:40:59,640 --> 00:41:02,359
Speaker 1: dancer stealing. So you know we'll be on piles, right.

746
00:41:02,480 --> 00:41:05,640
Speaker 1: So what that means is if say, for instance, um,

747
00:41:06,080 --> 00:41:11,359
Speaker 1: that magical night that happened at Rain with so Um,

748
00:41:11,520 --> 00:41:15,120
Speaker 1: I just was there, Yeah, at the club that I

749
00:41:15,200 --> 00:41:18,880
Speaker 1: barked in that yeah, so um. So you see how

750
00:41:19,239 --> 00:41:20,600
Speaker 1: we had the section and all of the money that

751
00:41:20,680 --> 00:41:22,040
Speaker 1: was in the section was mine, but the money that

752
00:41:22,120 --> 00:41:25,359
Speaker 1: was everywhere else was full or whoever? Right? So um

753
00:41:25,840 --> 00:41:27,800
Speaker 1: remember when the one girl came and was dancing on

754
00:41:28,360 --> 00:41:32,800
Speaker 1: Janette and I gave her money? Oh yeah, so I

755
00:41:32,840 --> 00:41:35,600
Speaker 1: gave her money separately in her hand because she wasn't

756
00:41:35,640 --> 00:41:37,480
Speaker 1: to touch what was on the floor. But there will

757
00:41:37,520 --> 00:41:40,359
Speaker 1: be girls that would be like, oh, I'm on this pile.

758
00:41:40,760 --> 00:41:42,759
Speaker 1: You cannot come in on money that's already on the

759
00:41:42,840 --> 00:41:46,360
Speaker 1: floor because this already my money. Yeah, you wasn't here

760
00:41:46,400 --> 00:41:48,000
Speaker 1: in the beginning. You ain't picking up none of this

761
00:41:48,040 --> 00:41:49,799
Speaker 1: in the end, so you better act to get paid

762
00:41:49,840 --> 00:41:51,880
Speaker 1: in your hand. But then they would be the girls

763
00:41:51,920 --> 00:41:54,440
Speaker 1: that would make the big fuss about it, or when

764
00:41:54,480 --> 00:41:56,720
Speaker 1: it comes to the pile, you would have the girls

765
00:41:56,840 --> 00:41:59,480
Speaker 1: that would go and count the money behind your back

766
00:41:59,600 --> 00:42:02,799
Speaker 1: and skin a little something on the top. Diamond, Oh,

767
00:42:03,040 --> 00:42:05,759
Speaker 1: don't do a diamond. She was the biggest thief of

768
00:42:05,800 --> 00:42:10,600
Speaker 1: Maga City for about twenty years. I'm talking about. I'm

769
00:42:10,600 --> 00:42:14,520
Speaker 1: talking about. I'm talking about a real situation that everybody knows,

770
00:42:14,560 --> 00:42:16,759
Speaker 1: this girl's a thief. I ever got the question now

771
00:42:16,800 --> 00:42:19,720
Speaker 1: because I went to the club with Tyler and Maine

772
00:42:20,280 --> 00:42:23,080
Speaker 1: Um from our show as well. So how does it work?

773
00:42:23,120 --> 00:42:25,440
Speaker 1: Like we already had our dances going and stuff, and

774
00:42:25,480 --> 00:42:27,279
Speaker 1: then the girls were coming up trying to get in

775
00:42:27,480 --> 00:42:29,359
Speaker 1: on it. Is that the example you're talking about, because

776
00:42:29,360 --> 00:42:34,279
Speaker 1: it's just like so now you have to as a

777
00:42:34,600 --> 00:42:36,719
Speaker 1: as an entertainer, you are supposed to know how to

778
00:42:36,840 --> 00:42:40,200
Speaker 1: handle that situation. If it already girls dancing and and

779
00:42:40,320 --> 00:42:42,440
Speaker 1: somebody called you over and the crew, you know, it

780
00:42:42,800 --> 00:42:45,960
Speaker 1: was three four y'all right, so you already got girls dancing,

781
00:42:46,040 --> 00:42:49,120
Speaker 1: but you know, man see somebody that he's interested in,

782
00:42:49,200 --> 00:42:50,880
Speaker 1: and he wanted to, you know, start up a conversation

783
00:42:50,920 --> 00:42:52,960
Speaker 1: that he Okay, go here to dance. It's up to

784
00:42:53,040 --> 00:42:55,440
Speaker 1: her to say, well, I'm not entitled to any of

785
00:42:55,480 --> 00:42:57,120
Speaker 1: this money that's already on the floor. So if you

786
00:42:57,160 --> 00:42:58,959
Speaker 1: want me to dance, either I need a separate pile

787
00:42:59,480 --> 00:43:01,560
Speaker 1: or you can just pay me in my hand. God.

788
00:43:01,719 --> 00:43:04,680
Speaker 1: So that's how that goes. Is the economics and the

789
00:43:04,800 --> 00:43:09,279
Speaker 1: business of the business. This is not just shaking. It's

790
00:43:09,320 --> 00:43:12,160
Speaker 1: your club. The only girls, like everybody hated was the

791
00:43:12,239 --> 00:43:15,680
Speaker 1: ones jerking guys off in the Love Dancer. It's like

792
00:43:15,800 --> 00:43:21,279
Speaker 1: at least taking to the champagne room for that brow all.

793
00:43:21,320 --> 00:43:27,399
Speaker 1: You ruining the whole game, everybody, everybody, everybody, because that's real.

794
00:43:27,960 --> 00:43:30,759
Speaker 1: You're just messing up everybody's money. It's horrible. And then

795
00:43:30,800 --> 00:43:33,640
Speaker 1: you're making the other girls feel like this is what

796
00:43:33,760 --> 00:43:36,640
Speaker 1: you have to do to get this, and I'm expecting

797
00:43:36,719 --> 00:43:41,359
Speaker 1: that one girl gonna do it, then they're all gonna

798
00:43:41,400 --> 00:43:44,879
Speaker 1: do it. And it's like we ain't all that I'm

799
00:43:44,920 --> 00:43:47,200
Speaker 1: not a rat. But girls used to go and tell

800
00:43:47,239 --> 00:43:49,040
Speaker 1: the owners and get girls. Father. So I'm gonna tell

801
00:43:49,080 --> 00:43:51,480
Speaker 1: you all from my experience and all the years that

802
00:43:51,520 --> 00:43:55,280
Speaker 1: I danced, I would say that the most trifling, cutthroat, nasty,

803
00:43:55,520 --> 00:43:58,120
Speaker 1: down gut of girls that would just do anything was

804
00:43:58,160 --> 00:44:01,000
Speaker 1: the ones that had pimps oh for me because it

805
00:44:01,200 --> 00:44:03,359
Speaker 1: was there, you know, they had it back and they've

806
00:44:03,400 --> 00:44:05,640
Speaker 1: always a girl who got a man waiting for her. Yeah.

807
00:44:06,400 --> 00:44:08,360
Speaker 1: Got to be a consultant on the show. I like,

808
00:44:11,040 --> 00:44:14,239
Speaker 1: it's actually interesting to see like that's a position. It

809
00:44:14,400 --> 00:44:18,280
Speaker 1: is a show consultant, that that's a producer. Really is position,

810
00:44:18,719 --> 00:44:20,480
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. I think because of the

811
00:44:20,560 --> 00:44:22,960
Speaker 1: research has been done on the show and the dancers

812
00:44:23,200 --> 00:44:25,959
Speaker 1: like that. One of our writers used to be a dancer. See,

813
00:44:26,280 --> 00:44:30,719
Speaker 1: you know, I feel like a book, Like everybody goes

814
00:44:30,760 --> 00:44:32,560
Speaker 1: through something in this life and it's not for not

815
00:44:33,600 --> 00:44:35,040
Speaker 1: do you understand what I'm saying, and like to be

816
00:44:35,120 --> 00:44:36,840
Speaker 1: able to use that pass it on and pass that

817
00:44:36,920 --> 00:44:40,200
Speaker 1: knowledge and stuff like that. It's real, it's real. Monetize

818
00:44:40,239 --> 00:44:42,840
Speaker 1: it as well as get your own dreams. You know.

819
00:44:43,520 --> 00:44:46,480
Speaker 1: I remember telling me your name when I first got

820
00:44:46,560 --> 00:44:48,839
Speaker 1: the job. Like, these are the type of women I'm

821
00:44:48,920 --> 00:44:51,680
Speaker 1: envisioning for Mercedes and you were one of the people,

822
00:44:52,040 --> 00:44:57,560
Speaker 1: and I was like, research some great videos. There's so

823
00:44:57,640 --> 00:44:59,719
Speaker 1: let me tell you, there's a long list of similarities

824
00:45:00,000 --> 00:45:03,280
Speaker 1: Angela has. Right, But when the when the show first started,

825
00:45:03,360 --> 00:45:04,920
Speaker 1: I got phone called at the phone call at the

826
00:45:05,000 --> 00:45:09,360
Speaker 1: d M, at the d M about everything Last Dance, Hurricane,

827
00:45:09,400 --> 00:45:13,319
Speaker 1: katrain A, first name, last name, Snackpack, Trinity, Like, it's

828
00:45:13,360 --> 00:45:15,880
Speaker 1: so many comparisons, and people would be like, oh, you

829
00:45:16,000 --> 00:45:17,879
Speaker 1: at check and I would be like, no, they don't

830
00:45:18,360 --> 00:45:23,960
Speaker 1: like my my strip club life and and countless other

831
00:45:24,120 --> 00:45:28,480
Speaker 1: women lives have been used as mused music for this storyline,

832
00:45:28,800 --> 00:45:31,279
Speaker 1: and I have no issue with that because I would

833
00:45:31,480 --> 00:45:35,600
Speaker 1: rather the show be authentic than some made up ship

834
00:45:35,760 --> 00:45:38,040
Speaker 1: that never really happened. Like the fact that there are

835
00:45:38,160 --> 00:45:42,239
Speaker 1: similarities and I know that again someone is also kind

836
00:45:42,280 --> 00:45:44,360
Speaker 1: of like a liaison to help us authentic the script

837
00:45:44,400 --> 00:45:47,439
Speaker 1: outside of being the actress. And I was so proud

838
00:45:47,480 --> 00:45:49,840
Speaker 1: of her for that because it's like, yes, girl, let

839
00:45:49,880 --> 00:45:54,319
Speaker 1: them know. You know what I'm saying, like, don get

840
00:45:54,400 --> 00:45:57,879
Speaker 1: money doing like that. I don't care how many point

841
00:45:57,920 --> 00:46:02,799
Speaker 1: I'm told, you know, but it's it's so many similarities.

842
00:46:02,840 --> 00:46:05,440
Speaker 1: But at the same time, again, I'm honored, like I

843
00:46:05,800 --> 00:46:09,160
Speaker 1: wouldn't ever think of being like taking it in a

844
00:46:09,280 --> 00:46:12,240
Speaker 1: negative light. It's it's all. It's definitely been all positive

845
00:46:12,360 --> 00:46:16,040
Speaker 1: from season what from before it show even started. When

846
00:46:16,480 --> 00:46:18,040
Speaker 1: someone told me that they were casting in what the

847
00:46:18,080 --> 00:46:19,680
Speaker 1: show was about, I was just like, okay, go here,

848
00:46:19,960 --> 00:46:22,359
Speaker 1: you know, like go girl, go um And then again

849
00:46:22,440 --> 00:46:24,919
Speaker 1: to get the phone call for season two, you were like, yeah,

850
00:46:25,200 --> 00:46:27,080
Speaker 1: it's And when I first sat down, the first thing

851
00:46:27,120 --> 00:46:29,400
Speaker 1: I said was like, are you happy with it? Because

852
00:46:29,800 --> 00:46:32,360
Speaker 1: that's what feels good, because it's like, I don't know

853
00:46:32,480 --> 00:46:35,560
Speaker 1: this world. I'm portraying it, you know, and so it

854
00:46:35,640 --> 00:46:37,319
Speaker 1: feels so good. When they always ask me in the press,

855
00:46:37,360 --> 00:46:38,680
Speaker 1: I'm like, no, I want to hear from the women

856
00:46:38,719 --> 00:46:41,040
Speaker 1: that actually have done it, man, like if they are

857
00:46:41,120 --> 00:46:43,040
Speaker 1: happy with it, I don't give ship with nobody. I

858
00:46:43,080 --> 00:46:46,400
Speaker 1: gotta say, out of everything, that last stance is the

859
00:46:46,440 --> 00:46:48,360
Speaker 1: biggest homage because I don't know if you'll know this,

860
00:46:48,440 --> 00:46:51,439
Speaker 1: but I created that. No, I did not know that. Yeah.

861
00:46:51,920 --> 00:46:54,600
Speaker 1: So when I decided to leave Magic City, it was

862
00:46:54,719 --> 00:46:58,200
Speaker 1: because I was in a relationship with um, a well

863
00:46:58,280 --> 00:47:00,360
Speaker 1: to do man who's in the music industy three, and

864
00:47:00,520 --> 00:47:02,640
Speaker 1: he just didn't want me in the club anymore. And

865
00:47:02,719 --> 00:47:05,520
Speaker 1: we had a conversation and that conversation ended with Okay,

866
00:47:05,520 --> 00:47:08,400
Speaker 1: I'm gonna quit. So I literally went to work that

867
00:47:08,600 --> 00:47:11,799
Speaker 1: Monday and went straight into the office and to aligement

868
00:47:11,880 --> 00:47:15,080
Speaker 1: that this is my last day. So they're like, okay,

869
00:47:15,200 --> 00:47:17,840
Speaker 1: but you're just not gonna quit, Like this could be

870
00:47:17,840 --> 00:47:19,440
Speaker 1: your last day working, but this ain't gonna be your

871
00:47:19,480 --> 00:47:21,000
Speaker 1: last day on the stage, Like you are not the

872
00:47:21,040 --> 00:47:23,400
Speaker 1: average woman that came through this club. You can't just

873
00:47:23,480 --> 00:47:25,960
Speaker 1: walk away, like you have to give the family, friends

874
00:47:26,000 --> 00:47:29,440
Speaker 1: and followers something to remember, like your fans deserved that,

875
00:47:29,719 --> 00:47:31,600
Speaker 1: you know, Like I literally was the one that they

876
00:47:31,600 --> 00:47:35,879
Speaker 1: would come in the club asking for, like Mercedes, you're

877

00:47:46,800 --> 00:47:48,880
Speaker 1: So they were like, Beyonce just can't leave, like how

881
00:47:48,960 --> 00:47:51,719
Speaker 1: dare you? So that He's like you have to give

Speaker 1: one last performance, right, So I was always the queen

883
00:47:54,960 --> 00:47:56,800
Speaker 1: of the themes. Every birthday, probably did a Sess in

888
00:48:09,040 --> 00:48:11,560
Speaker 1: and China as well. We all come from that, from

889
00:48:11,600 --> 00:48:15,319

00:49:26,200 --> 00:49:29,160
Speaker 1: I did the whole flashdance thing with the chair and

912
00:49:29,239 --> 00:49:31,239
Speaker 1: then I grabbed the cord and the money in the

913
00:49:31,280 --> 00:49:33,600
Speaker 1: coffetti flew down on me like it was water. So

914
00:49:33,760 --> 00:49:36,600
Speaker 1: since it was the flash dance theme and it was

915
00:49:36,719 --> 00:49:39,880
Speaker 1: my last time dancing on Magic City stage, I literally

916
00:49:40,440 --> 00:49:44,040
Speaker 1: recreated the Flash Dance DVD cover for my photo shooting

917
00:49:44,080 --> 00:49:47,759
Speaker 1: for my promo Matarial and I crossed out flash and

918
00:49:47,880 --> 00:49:50,440
Speaker 1: covered it with lass. So the name of the party

919
00:49:50,560 --> 00:49:52,520
Speaker 1: was called the Last Dance. I had it filmed for

920
00:49:52,600 --> 00:49:55,440
Speaker 1: DVD and I sold over five hundred copies and it

921
00:49:55,560 --> 00:49:58,080
Speaker 1: was like a huge deal. I made close to thirty

922
00:49:58,560 --> 00:50:01,839
Speaker 1: that night. It was a huge deal, right so um

923
00:50:02,440 --> 00:50:08,400
Speaker 1: So after me, Jessica Dome was the first UM reality

924
00:50:08,520 --> 00:50:12,000
Speaker 1: star to have a last dance on TV. Her Seeing

925
00:50:12,040 --> 00:50:14,440
Speaker 1: on Love and Hip Hop, her opening Seeing on Love

926
00:50:14,480 --> 00:50:16,359
Speaker 1: and Hip Hop, her introduction to the show was her

927
00:50:16,760 --> 00:50:18,919
Speaker 1: leaving a club in Miami and having a last dance.

928
00:50:19,280 --> 00:50:21,719
Speaker 1: To this day, I can scroll down Instagram on the

929
00:50:21,760 --> 00:50:24,439
Speaker 1: explore a page and I'll see random flyers for girls

930
00:50:24,520 --> 00:50:26,960
Speaker 1: having their last dance. Never was supposed to be a thing.

931
00:50:27,120 --> 00:50:31,200
Speaker 1: That was just the theme of my party because it

932
00:50:31,280 --> 00:50:36,040
Speaker 1: was right, but because it was such a big that

933
00:50:36,080 --> 00:50:38,120
Speaker 1: made it to the blogs like such a Because such

934
00:50:38,120 --> 00:50:40,680
Speaker 1: it was a big deal, it became a thing. And

935
00:50:40,760 --> 00:50:42,719
Speaker 1: to this day, this was two thousand eleven, here we

936
00:50:42,800 --> 00:50:49,320
Speaker 1: are almost twelve years later. People have this last dance

937
00:50:49,840 --> 00:50:52,279
Speaker 1: in strip clubs all around the world. And when I

938
00:50:52,360 --> 00:50:56,759
Speaker 1: saw that part of p Valley, I just I lost it,

939
00:50:57,040 --> 00:51:02,120
Speaker 1: Like the amount of emotions that overcame me, just knowing

940
00:51:02,239 --> 00:51:05,040
Speaker 1: that something I created that wasn't even intended to be

941
00:51:05,120 --> 00:51:07,000
Speaker 1: a thing not only made it to so many different

942
00:51:07,000 --> 00:51:08,600
Speaker 1: strip clubs around the world, but that made it to

943
00:51:08,640 --> 00:51:10,879
Speaker 1: a script of TV. Do you love her some Damp Valley.

944
00:51:10,920 --> 00:51:17,279
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna I I know everything was like only

945
00:51:17,680 --> 00:51:19,480
Speaker 1: the episodes that have come on TV, because I didn't

946
00:51:19,480 --> 00:51:21,640
Speaker 1: want to know too much because then I'd be like,

947
00:51:21,800 --> 00:51:24,279
Speaker 1: I like to watch it when everybody's watching it. So

948
00:51:24,360 --> 00:51:26,520
Speaker 1: you could go online and joining the Twitter party and

949
00:51:26,640 --> 00:51:30,719
Speaker 1: find everything. But I mean, is it already a season

950
00:51:30,800 --> 00:51:32,600
Speaker 1: three coming? Do we know that we praise? So we

951
00:51:32,680 --> 00:51:37,879
Speaker 1: wait on the call to I mean, there's no way

952
00:51:37,960 --> 00:51:43,600
Speaker 1: the numbers listen. Stranger things have happened for stranger things

953
00:51:43,640 --> 00:51:47,120
Speaker 1: have happened. But you know I've been in that's right,

954
00:51:47,200 --> 00:51:49,279
Speaker 1: happening in this game longer enough that you know I'm

955
00:51:49,320 --> 00:51:52,960
Speaker 1: not counting nothing until we get the contract. You know,

956
00:51:53,400 --> 00:51:57,200
Speaker 1: I would be shocked either way. Um not either way.

957
00:51:57,239 --> 00:52:00,840
Speaker 1: I would be shocked if we did not, but it

958
00:52:01,160 --> 00:52:04,680
Speaker 1: ends so beautifully that I would still be so proud

959
00:52:04,800 --> 00:52:09,600
Speaker 1: season two does. Yes, Um, I wouldn't be one though

960
00:52:10,360 --> 00:52:13,319
Speaker 1: the way with the season one ended. Season one ended,

961
00:52:13,400 --> 00:52:16,640
Speaker 1: and my my truth, I was afraid. I just didn't know.

962
00:52:16,840 --> 00:52:18,800
Speaker 1: But I mean, we got picked up so early. We

963
00:52:18,840 --> 00:52:22,400
Speaker 1: got picked up after episode two and season one, so

964
00:52:23,600 --> 00:52:25,360
Speaker 1: before I can even get to the point of wondering,

965
00:52:25,480 --> 00:52:27,440
Speaker 1: Like I feel like season two is way better than

966
00:52:27,480 --> 00:52:30,160
Speaker 1: season one, and I just know what's to come, Like

967
00:52:31,080 --> 00:52:33,840
Speaker 1: I loved one, I really loved too, and then as

968
00:52:33,920 --> 00:52:37,160
Speaker 1: it goes, I swear it gets better. So I would

969
00:52:37,719 --> 00:52:39,239
Speaker 1: that one would her because I'd be like, for real,

970
00:52:39,440 --> 00:52:42,759
Speaker 1: like this is really good. But then I'm like, but

971
00:52:42,880 --> 00:52:45,320
Speaker 1: we killed that ship. If this is the end, we

972
00:52:45,480 --> 00:52:48,200
Speaker 1: killed it. Yeah. It's this thing of literally like what

973
00:52:48,320 --> 00:52:52,640
Speaker 1: you're waiting for, there's no need to wait to be great? Yeah. Yeah,

974
00:52:52,760 --> 00:52:55,640
Speaker 1: like like get in here and like let's let's duke

975
00:52:55,760 --> 00:52:58,880
Speaker 1: this out and let's let's do it. And I love that.

976
00:52:59,640 --> 00:53:02,040
Speaker 1: I of that, and I feel like if there is

977
00:53:02,360 --> 00:53:05,280
Speaker 1: a season three, it's going to be even more because

978
00:53:05,360 --> 00:53:10,000
Speaker 1: like where it's going, where it's going, where it's going

979
00:53:10,360 --> 00:53:13,719
Speaker 1: is eag for real. It's it's the thing of like

980
00:53:14,120 --> 00:53:17,000
Speaker 1: I just thought about the finale, y'all ain't ready. I

981
00:53:17,040 --> 00:53:20,719
Speaker 1: don't even know people wait for me, like what she

982
00:53:20,760 --> 00:53:25,359
Speaker 1: was saying episode She's gonna watch it tonight, all of them.

983
00:53:25,960 --> 00:53:28,160
Speaker 1: It's about the creativity. Like I'm here, I'm sitting here

984
00:53:28,239 --> 00:53:31,640
Speaker 1: across from you. Listen you tell that story, Like that's amazing.

985
00:53:32,400 --> 00:53:35,240
Speaker 1: You know, people one don't realize all that goes into

986
00:53:35,280 --> 00:53:36,800
Speaker 1: what they think that you know, you just put on

987
00:53:36,880 --> 00:53:42,320
Speaker 1: some flaws, it's nothing. One thing that's also great about

988
00:53:42,360 --> 00:53:45,360
Speaker 1: the show is that you guys really put a spotlight

989
00:53:45,440 --> 00:53:49,320
Speaker 1: on the art of the performance, like Jamaica did that. Yeah,

990
00:53:49,640 --> 00:53:52,680
Speaker 1: like the rehearsals that happened that you got to go

991
00:53:52,760 --> 00:53:55,920
Speaker 1: through a week and a half. Even that's fast as

992
00:53:56,000 --> 00:53:59,440
Speaker 1: an actor. There were days I snuck in season one,

993
00:53:59,480 --> 00:54:03,120
Speaker 1: we were at a pair of studios, snuck into there

994
00:54:03,160 --> 00:54:06,560
Speaker 1: to do that. The episode three with Coach picked him

995
00:54:06,640 --> 00:54:09,880
Speaker 1: up from the airport. We had just met. My past

996
00:54:09,960 --> 00:54:12,920
Speaker 1: worked and I was like, let's rehearse, and literally rehearsed.

997
00:54:13,000 --> 00:54:14,920
Speaker 1: There are times when Nico would be like, what you're

998
00:54:14,920 --> 00:54:16,719
Speaker 1: doing here? He would come out, what you're doing here

999
00:54:16,840 --> 00:54:19,399
Speaker 1: sitting on clippered offs, I'm on the pole, like because

1000
00:54:19,480 --> 00:54:22,120
Speaker 1: we're really just working, really working, because it takes that

1001
00:54:22,280 --> 00:54:25,520
Speaker 1: much to do this and to make it look the

1002
00:54:25,600 --> 00:54:27,799
Speaker 1: way that it looks. You know, whether that's oh you're

1003
00:54:27,840 --> 00:54:31,040
Speaker 1: just a natural, think it. We just really grass. And

1004
00:54:31,120 --> 00:54:34,279
Speaker 1: it also made me mad at myself for being so

1005
00:54:34,440 --> 00:54:37,319
Speaker 1: ignorant in the past because I didn't know what all

1006
00:54:37,360 --> 00:54:39,640
Speaker 1: went into it. I thought it was one thing, and

1007
00:54:39,680 --> 00:54:41,960
Speaker 1: then I think, like it's sore and all this thing on.

1008
00:54:42,600 --> 00:54:44,320
Speaker 1: Did you just really throw ten dollars and that's it?

1009
00:54:44,680 --> 00:54:49,120
Speaker 1: Like you realize how hard rehearsed, how how much this

1010
00:54:49,440 --> 00:54:51,439
Speaker 1: this trip. I've been working on this trip for years.

1011
00:54:52,600 --> 00:54:55,560
Speaker 1: My makeup my lashes and I'm touching up in between,

1012
00:54:56,080 --> 00:54:57,919
Speaker 1: like as an after I'm trying to keep it together

1013
00:54:57,920 --> 00:54:59,839
Speaker 1: and I gotta stay fresh for you. And that's all

1014
00:54:59,880 --> 00:55:02,200
Speaker 1: you gonna give me. It's the whole thing. I can

1015
00:55:02,280 --> 00:55:05,840
Speaker 1: only imagine that, So you don't want that afternoon shift sometimes. Listen.

1016
00:55:07,480 --> 00:55:11,280
Speaker 1: It was also really wild when we would film. Sometimes

1017
00:55:11,320 --> 00:55:13,920
Speaker 1: when we're filming, you have to we have like earwigs

1018
00:55:14,000 --> 00:55:16,440
Speaker 1: in our ear so we can hear the music because

1019
00:55:16,520 --> 00:55:20,080
Speaker 1: sounds rise, it can't play. And so when you when

1020
00:55:20,160 --> 00:55:23,200
Speaker 1: those moments happened, and like the background actors are there

1021
00:55:23,400 --> 00:55:28,600
Speaker 1: and they are hearing the sweat, the heaving, the skin burning,

1022
00:55:28,719 --> 00:55:31,760
Speaker 1: you know, when they're hearing all the pot one scene

1023
00:55:31,760 --> 00:55:35,960
Speaker 1: I'm sorry ahead in season one when you got the

1024
00:55:36,000 --> 00:55:39,160
Speaker 1: red outfit on and they cut all the music and

1025
00:55:39,239 --> 00:55:42,840
Speaker 1: all you hear is when I tell you that's so

1026
00:55:42,920 --> 00:55:51,440
Speaker 1: real and you grunting and breathing it. Oh, yes, that

1027
00:55:51,600 --> 00:55:54,680
Speaker 1: was a real day. I didn't realize that even in

1028
00:55:54,760 --> 00:55:57,000
Speaker 1: season one, if I'm honest, because Spider did that trick

1029
00:55:57,040 --> 00:55:59,920
Speaker 1: for me on the ceiling in season one. Season two,

1030
00:56:00,360 --> 00:56:02,760
Speaker 1: I learned how to do more things and I'm dropping

1031
00:56:02,800 --> 00:56:05,440
Speaker 1: in when you like head first and squeeze. I'm like

1032
00:56:07,120 --> 00:56:09,719
Speaker 1: the thighs that burn and all. And I was just like,

1033
00:56:09,960 --> 00:56:13,520
Speaker 1: oh my gosh. And I remember the audience members an

1034
00:56:13,560 --> 00:56:16,759
Speaker 1: episode two, an episode two when we were like those

1035
00:56:16,800 --> 00:56:18,440
Speaker 1: heels and they would be like hold on, I'm like

1036
00:56:18,600 --> 00:56:21,120
Speaker 1: locked up there on the pole. They're they're like one second, Brandy,

1037
00:56:21,200 --> 00:56:23,160
Speaker 1: and the audience is literally looking at me going the

1038
00:56:23,239 --> 00:56:25,399
Speaker 1: our background going it's okay, you gotta, you gotta, you gotta,

00:56:30,880 --> 00:56:34,480
Speaker 1: on my heels on fire. Yeah, you know, it's crazy.

1042
00:56:34,640 --> 00:56:39,480
Speaker 1: Sometimes you would see their faces and like down, you know,

1123
01:00:51,040 --> 01:00:53,320

1124
01:00:53,400 --> 01:00:56,720
Speaker 1: from a freaking student and he told about some Miss Evans.

1125
01:00:56,760 --> 01:01:00,120
Speaker 1: I'm grown now, and I swipe deleted so bad. I

1126
01:01:00,240 --> 01:01:05,200
Speaker 1: just remember right now. I deleted so fast. I was like, boy, boy,

1127
01:01:07,360 --> 01:01:13,800
Speaker 1: I'm grown now about that? Yes, Brandy, that's how you're

1128
01:01:13,800 --> 01:01:23,760
Speaker 1: teaching the ABC listen. I was thinking, like, wow, she

1129
01:01:23,920 --> 01:01:25,480
Speaker 1: must have had a lot of money. How was I

1130
01:01:25,640 --> 01:01:31,720
Speaker 1: was teaching English and stilettos like like, wasn't like miss

1131
01:01:31,760 --> 01:01:37,920
Speaker 1: Evans now me and you, Miss Evans, I had a

1132
01:01:38,000 --> 01:01:40,680
Speaker 1: bad teacher at high school. I forget her name, but

1133
01:01:40,760 --> 01:01:43,440
Speaker 1: she was so flush or what's here? Then? She always

1134
01:01:43,480 --> 01:01:48,720
Speaker 1: had some nice shoes on, nice and bag a Fendi bag.

1135
01:01:48,800 --> 01:01:51,560
Speaker 1: I'll never forget her work bag was a Fendi bag.

1136
01:01:51,880 --> 01:01:54,040
Speaker 1: One of my eyes like to teach her growing up,

1137
01:01:54,080 --> 01:01:56,360
Speaker 1: and she was to this day. He's the most glamorous

1138
01:01:56,360 --> 01:01:59,320
Speaker 1: woman I ever saw in my life. Anyway, when teachers

1139
01:01:59,400 --> 01:02:01,120
Speaker 1: end up with one of the students, because I didn't

1140
01:02:01,160 --> 01:02:03,600
Speaker 1: seen somebody, she just to my old high school to

1141
01:02:03,760 --> 01:02:12,760

01:02:13,640 --> 01:02:15,880
Speaker 1: coming up here tonight? I saw one of my students.

1143
01:02:16,400 --> 01:02:18,160
Speaker 1: I didn't realize that it was her. She was just

1144
01:02:18,280 --> 01:02:21,920
Speaker 1: like Mr Nico, you don't remember me. And I was like,

1145
01:02:22,240 --> 01:02:24,200
Speaker 1: she just called my name, and I just thought it

1146
01:02:24,240 --> 01:02:26,480
Speaker 1: was someone who made know the show or something like that.

1147
01:02:26,520 --> 01:02:29,200
Speaker 1: And I was just like, hey, you know exactly. She

1148
01:02:29,280 --> 01:02:31,640
Speaker 1: was like, you don't remember me, so and so from

1149
01:02:31,720 --> 01:02:34,400
Speaker 1: you know, Greenberg, you know, upstate New York. She was like,

1150
01:02:34,480 --> 01:02:35,760
Speaker 1: you know, used to be my teaching was I was.

1151
01:02:35,840 --> 01:02:43,520

Speaker 1: sessions and stuff like, and I was just like, yeah,

1154
01:02:49,600 --> 01:02:54,240
Speaker 1: that's that. Like the most important jobs honestly, like to

1155
01:02:54,360 --> 01:02:56,360
Speaker 1: be a teacher and influence those kids and then for

1156
01:02:56,440 --> 01:02:59,480
Speaker 1: them to see this now in a weird way, it's

1157
01:02:59,520 --> 01:03:02,400
Speaker 1: the thing to me, that kind of teaching helps to

1158
01:03:02,560 --> 01:03:06,040
Speaker 1: teach you, you know, because you consistently are seeing like,

1159
01:03:06,560 --> 01:03:09,640
Speaker 1: oh I can do that better, I didn't make that mistake,

1163
01:03:18,760 --> 01:03:22,200
Speaker 1: it's hard. It is a thankless job. You are not

1164
01:03:22,400 --> 01:03:25,720
Speaker 1: making the money all the things, but like so anything
