Wake that ass up early in the morning. The Breakfast Club. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. We got a special guest in the building. The legendary. Kim Fields, ladies and gentlemen.

Good morning. Good morning. Good morning. So glad to be here. How you feeling? I feel amazing. I feel amazing. How about you guys?

Bless Black and highly favor. That's right. All right, all right. That's the way to be. Another hit TV show, Kim. Season five with the Upshaws on Netflix. My God. How does it feel?

Really very surreal, but awesome. And, you know, just loving how everybody loves the Upshaws. It's really incredible. We're in the middle of filming new episodes now while new episodes just dropped. And it's just, you know, it's just the party trend keeps on going. Does it get weird ever because people know you for so many different things? Like this new generation probably knows you from the Upshaws, but don't know you from any of your previous things. Well, a lot of people, I mean, they still do, you know, the whole live in single vibe.

And and I think my favorite way to get recognized now is, yo, ain't you that chick from the Mike Epps show? That's my favorite. Like, there's no other career highlight but that. Do you say with this one more? Just because, you know, like, you're an OG, and you were young when you had a lot of those other really hit shows. Like, did this one hit a little different?

Back to life, living single. Well, thank you. I think this one hits different because of the timing. There's so many shows. There's so much content out there. There's so much noise out there. There's so many shows. There's so much content out there. There's so much noise out there. There's so many platforms. And for us to keep finding our lane

and blazing new trails, breaking new ground, finding the audience, finding us and loving us and being so loyal. I think that's, you know, honestly what feels different about this one.

And you're producing and directing it too. So being on both sides, how's that? It's, it's fun. Um, I love being able to have a voice for the whole thing. You know, sometimes when you're acting, you just have your voice for that one piece and then go home. Um, and, and so to be able to really care about and, and have a voice that's regarded um when you're crafting the entire um

brand of the show you know the the storylines the casting the this the that um all the nicks and crannies of it is there a science to a successful sitcom or is it just the luck of the draw i think it's a little bit of both but there is a science in terms of, and especially, again, timing. You've got to be authentic. Everybody wants to see stories and characters that really reflect the sign of the times, that reflect who they are, that they can relate to. I think relatability is the biggest thing right now. And in comedy, you have to be extraordinarily funny.

And with Mike and Wanda, when Mike started with the idea, he brought it to Wanda and then it unfolded from there. They said kind of the three tenets of the show would be it had to be really funny and really messy and really real. And I feel like that's kind of that formula that gets you that lightning in a bottle. And then when I look back at my other series or even other successful shows I think that's really what it comes down to you know are these characters engaging and what are they into and what are the stories and how do I relate to it and if it's not something that's either funny or relatable like sci-fi or or period piece things like Again, you've got to be so grounded in whatever the truth is and then let all of the shenanigans or fantasy or whatever

kind of stem from that, I think. Does it get difficult to stay consistent? Because I don't see that many black shows on air anymore like I used to. And as actresses do so many gigs, is it easier to get gigs or is it more difficult? Is it less work out there? Yeah, I was just talking with Holly Robinson-Pete about this, and it just seems like it's harder now and post-strike bounce back and things like that.

One would think that because, again, like I said, there's so much content, there's so many platforms, that there'd be this plethora of jobs and things. But at the same time, you've got less episodes in a season now. So I think that gets factored in as well. But overall, it is an effort that you have got to put in to keep it fresh, to keep it popping. Because people can recognize game, and if you're trying to phone it in, that keep it popping. Because people can recognize game. And if you're trying to phone it in, that's not going to fly.

So you do have to be committed. And at the end of or at the beginning of every season of the Upshaws, I'm always kind of giving our war cry of level up. Let's level up. And I think that's what we do. Do you have to go out and try out for these parts anymore as one of those things but like now they'll call me for a part I'm not I'm not I'm not at that I'm I'm too uh I'm Kim Fields damn it I'm not doing it too iconic there is a shift so I don't necessarily audition and I haven't for quite some time. Amen. But, you know, you get considered.

But my thing is, don't just tell me, well, you know, your name is out there or your name is on the list, because I don't know what people think when they think Kim Fields, especially the industry. And so my thing is, I'm usually having to erase some ghosts. You know what I mean? So that. What do you mean some ghosts? Meaning I don't want you to just go, oh, yeah, well, Kim feels. And then your mind thinks of anything from facts of life to and with the Internet, everything. I mean, I just posted Miss Butterworth commercial, you know, as a throwback.

Living single. You just never know what people's perception is, not just in terms of you, but then your ability to do that character, to be a chameleon. And to me, that's one of the greatest gifts of acting, is to be a chameleon. I don't want to play Kim Fields in something because then what is that? I'm not acting. Which is why Regine was one of my favorites to play because she was who

not like me but but I'm not in that space of where I go in and audition and things like that there are times that I'll go in and meet like a chemistry read going and meet casting or producers director just so that they they they see what's up i can't i guess the best way to describe it well most of the times in hollywood it's not even about what you do on camera though it's how you are off camera but you i don't know but you've never had that reputation of being like difficult to work with you never flipped a table in the writer's room have you no no because i i feel like um number one, I just love our industry. And then in terms of somebody who is into wellness, you treat people with respect and you, you know, should get that reciprocity.

There are times when you do have difficult moments, sure. And working on a project is, after a while, working with family, and we all know that family can be interesting to navigate. And so, but there's a certain level of professionalism. There's a certain level

of respect. Home training. Home training. Home training. You don't hear that no more. That's right. You better act like you got some home training.

That's right. Exactly. Regine was my girl, though.'s right. You better act like you got some home training. That's right. Exactly. Exactly. Do you feel like... Regine was my girl, though. Like, that was my... I'm glad that you said that that was your favorite to play, because that was my girl.

I grew up watching that show. And speaking of those shows, like Facts of Life and Living Single, how are you with the cast of those shows? So close. Yeah? So close, yes. Kim Coles and I just had a text and and tc uh the living single cast along with uh the show's creator yvette we are on um a a text thread that is that should

really be the reboot just this text or just just take snaps a screenshot to that um but we all are super close basically again like i said when you work with people for a stretch of time, even on a movie, you know, that's a month or six weeks, eight weeks, sometimes, you know, six months, you really do become like a family. And when I grew up, I started out as a crew baby. So I always loved, you know, that kind of familial concept.

So we always keep in touch. I'm always, you know, making sure that I'm doing my part, you know, to stay in touch with people and see what's up. I've been hearing Queen Erica Alexander talk about a reboot. I don't know how serious it is because she jokes a lot, but she'll put up, she'll be like, yo, send money to the GoFundMe. I don't know, you know what I mean? Are there really some serious talks happening? We've been on and off in serious talks and i think the the thing that is the great disruptor and it's a good problem to have is nobody's

available i mean that's that's a great problem to have nobody's sitting around like um yeah y'all remember me we could do this it's not the case at all and so i think that that's um that's really like i said it's a good problem to have so y'all have to take time y'all have to really like yeah yeah yeah exactly and you know to have. Y'all would have to take time. Y'all would have to really like. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, exactly. And, you know, to me, the thing about reboots, you got to be careful with them, I think,

because the idea is always intriguing and you want more of something that's familiar to you. But if you get it wrong, you can't just throw these characters back together and be like, what would y'all be doing now? Yeah. you can't just throw these characters back together and be like what would y'all be doing now yeah and and so I really applaud people who do it really well because they're taking the time to not just think about what these characters would be doing now but how to not like Cobra Kai they did the damn thing you know they they really that was a reboot slash reimagining and so I feel like when you when you really fine tune it

and you're strategic about it, it can be great. But again, the timing. Do you feel like you have to remind people? I said, you said you reposted an old Butterworth commercial. Do sometimes you feel like you've got to remind people what you've done because they forget so fast? Oh no, the internet is marvelous at that. Maybe I should ask,

do you get embarrassed with some of the older stuff? No, because I know the place that it comes from. I recognize that the characters that I've been able to breathe life into, the shows that I've been a part of, they mean something to people. And not just people of color.

Not just black women, but they mean something. And so I understand, again, the place that it that it comes from so you know i don't get that i don't get mad or upset or embarrassed i i it's actually still very surreal you know the way that you can do something and it has impact what you guys do here and it has impact you know and people hold on to some of these gems and won't let them go. You know, I wanted to ask you, where do you think black people are more impactful nowadays, behind the camera or in front of the camera? Well, I think it's finally, you know, kind of evened itself out in terms of the amount of storytellers and creatives behind the scenes so that there are more stories.

But we're not just telling black stories either. And so I feel like that's been really significant, you know. But I think that we're evening out in terms of where our impact is. We have more cinematographers. We have more editors. We have more showrunners, more makeup and hair teams. I mean, you know, you have people that are just in all the spaces more now than ever. And so I feel like that's helping to level the playing field so that we're now more of a collective as opposed to just the select actors and actresses that were the chosen ones.

I know the representation always matters, but where do you think it matters more? Hmm. For us to be seen or creating this story, so to speak. Well, I think it's one of those which comes first, chicken or the egg, because you have to have the story to be seen in. Yeah egg, because you have to have the story to be seen in. But then you have to have the lights to be seen. You have to have, you know, the cameras to see your ass.

So I feel like it's all one. It's a movement, you know. I feel like it's all one movement. Lighting is important for black people. We don't talk about that movement. Lighting is important for black people. We don't talk about that enough. Lighting is important. You know, there is a celebrated director of photography who started out as a lighting director. Well, he didn't start out like they probably started, you know, well below that named Don Morgan. And Don Morgan was just, I think, last year inducted into the Hall of Fame.

He has won countless multiple Emmys. And he started, I learned from him on Facts of Life. And then he was the original lighting director and set and DP and set the show for the Upshaws. So coming full circle, the woman who does my makeup on the Upshaws did my makeup on Facts of Life. Wow. Yeah. Wow. Yeah, yeah. Our first AD started out as a runner on Facts of Life, and now he's, you know, so it's just,

it's some of our camera people, you know, people that I've known since I was a little girl and I learned from. But everybody is important. I think that's the main thing about crew, and, you know, they used to call it above the line, below the line and at this point there's no line anymore some people will be like well there is for paying

but we're talking from a creative aspect and right now it's all the collective effort Now you started out so young acting right? Yes And we hear all these stories about childhood actors and actresses. Did you have to go through any of that? How did your parents or family make sure that you were safe from all the stuff that we're hearing about from Nickelodeon? That's Chip's daughter. That's Chip's kid. Exactly. And you know the thing that still gets me to this day, bro, is that she was a single teen mom. She ain't know nothing about raising a kid, let alone raising a kid

in the industry. But she had the good sense to know, hey, we need to make sure you're kind. She was an actress and always knew to be professional. So she imparted that to me. But she never stopped parenting me, you know. So, so a lot of the stuff now just growing up, that's, you know, whether you're in Hollywood or, you know, anywhere else in the world, Hollywood or Harlem, you're still going to have to grow up and deal with all the shit that comes from just growing up, growing pains. But, but when you're doing it, know in in a fishbowl of course it's different there's more pressure um but but again i'm chip's kid so you know it's one of the i got home training yeah i knew better you had directed um a bunch of episodes of the ken and cal ken and

cal show as well and i don't know if you saw the quiet on the set documentary but i did not see it but i'm i'm aware of it and i was actually not there during that time i was after that that time but i don't know if that was your question yeah yeah how closely did you work with dan schneider and and yeah like heenan said you know we we kind of came after all of that so we were in a different time frame got it okay no that's all miss uh miss chip fields right when you saw that episode on good times when she played janet jackson mama yeah right with that eye in and everything else do you ever ask her where did that come from because i know she wasn't doing that no

no she wasn't doing it at all uh and and um the thing for me with that episode is and that storyline is I saw them practice. I saw them rehearse. Latoya would bring Jan over to our apartment in Studio City and they would work on that material. So to me, it wasn't terrifying. Like, you know, everybody's like, this woman scared me and still does. And I'm shook and all that. I'm like, they just they were working hard in the kitchen. And, you know, so I have a very different perspective on it.

But I'd always known my mother to be a tremendous actor. I mean, tremendous actor back in that New York early 70s, mid 70s when they were doing all the movies out here. And just, it was a different type of acting, you know, that was so hardcore and so real. Claudine, Taking a Pelham, 1, 2, 3, Come Back, Charleston Blue. You know, those movies where they weren't the blaxploitation movies. And she was, you know, 20, 21, 22, coming up in in that and she would bring the thunder all the time and so when she migrated to LA

it was almost like they hadn't seen that kind of style of acting which is why she really stood out Did she like, I don't want to say force that's not the right word, but did she push you into Hollywood? Not at all, not at all so when mom was doing Pearl Bailey's Hello Dolly,

I would go to either to the theater here on Broadway or I would go to see her on tour. And I loved being behind the scenes. Like I'm a really shy person and I was a very shy kid. I was an only child for the longest time. So I wasn't like, watch me. Not at all. I was one of them, you know, sit back in the cut and watch. But I loved seeing what I would come to know as the artisans, right? The people, the crew babies. Well, I mean, I was the crew baby, but the crew. So working and seeing them create the wigs and the makeup and the sets and the this and the costumes and everything.

And so that's what I loved about it, and I knew that I wanted to be a part of that um and she would always once i got started in it she would always say well do you want to do this like every time we would get the call that fax life had been picked up she said do you still want to do it do you still want to act you still want to do this again wow because like how do you know to do that? Mm-hmm. Did you ever get out of line? She grabbed Okay Well, I had warning to because my mom from the time she was a little girl she had a temper and And so if she bit her knuckle that means it's

coming that mean you better get the hell out the way yeah yeah and so i saw it and i was like but that don't mean me right now i'm not doing that and before i knew it exactly now i wanted to you know since you pick what you want to do is this something that you've been thinking about that you want to do? Oh, boy. Absolutely. And what's that? I want to do some and I've been developing with a really great team, some projects in the sci fi genre. I have an inner mermaid in me that is just dying to come out.

I also have an inner explorer in me. So I'm just now starting to have conversations with National Geographic, which... Oh, nice. Man, wait till y'all see me at the top of some glacier and, you know... You gonna do all that? Listen, that is me all day, every day. Yes. So I just love that kind of stuff.

People behind you shaking their head like, oh, God, oh, God. They're like, we not going on that one. You're going by yourself. She don't need glam on a glacier. Right. So you want to play like a mermaid? Yeah.

Okay, okay. Absolutely. But like. What do you mean? Like mermaids, water, swimming. Yes, absolutely. What is this thing with mermaids with you? Well, I love water.

I love water. And so I've always been fascinated with what is beneath the surface. And I really love, like Netflix had this documentary called Mer People. Right, Sean? Listen, that thing right there, I started following all of them and they were like, oh my God. And so I just think it's really just so fascinating. And my son asked me once, you know, if you had a superpower, and I was like, I'd want to breathe underwater. Like, that's the superpower that I would want.

What is merpeople? Merpeople are the mermaid culture. So they are, it's a subculture, but it's like a whole thing. Like, they got, like, festivals and conferences. Under the water? Under the water. Under the water. Under the water. Okay don't know. No, baby.

Okay. All right. No. But they embrace the mermaid concept or the merman concept. And then they have cruises. They have competitions and things. And there's this guy, Mer Taylor. He makes these incredible, I promise before God, he makes these incredible fins, tails,

but they are so gorgeous and elaborate. And he started as a kid by watching in Florida, this whole in the 60s, they had like this whole swim show with these women who would wear these beautiful costumes and things. And it was fascinating. So I've always loved that. So then I'm like, what if there's like a CIA, but for the whole mer-culture. Something like they have aliens for the aliens, they have it for the mermaids.

Right, exactly, exactly. But it's their version of the CIA. Like, why do y'all keep coming in the water looking for stuff? Get out of here. Oh, that could be dope. It could be C, like S-E-A-I-A. There you go. Come on now. Come on now. Yeah, why do y'all keep coming in the water looking for stuff? Get out of here. Oh, that could be dope. It could be C, like S-E-A-I-A.

There you go. Come on now. Come on now. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So, see there. I got a book I'm going to recommend you.

It's called Shallow Waters. It's about, we got them? Oh, yeah. It's by Yimmy Y. It's good. It's a fictional book. Okay.

Do you like to read? I love to read. I like to read. Do you like to read? So, you recommend a book to people that don't even read. I love, I love to read. I like to read. I like to read. You recommend the book to people that don't even read. I love to read.

I'm actually reading this beautiful story. It's actually the true story of Elizabeth Taylor and Montgomery Clift and their friendship and their working together. And it's just, it's beautiful. But going back to the book, yes. I'm going to give it to you if you leave but like i love the underwater exploration because i feel like the earth is not 75 percent water for no reason like that's right you hear those stories about how it probably was a huge flood yeah and like there's so much under there like a whole other civilizations i truly believe that okay so this weekend um i'm dropping uh my first in-person conversation with refreshed by kf

that's my series of conversations in my wellness space and my first in-person conversation with Refresh by KF. That's my series of conversations in my wellness space. And my first in-person conversation is with an explorer engineer named Albert Lin. Albert was on the show Welcome to Earth that Will Smith did for National Geographic. And then he hosts these shows, Cities Revealed, Lost Cities, the under, what is it, not underwater, but the lost civilizations of the Mayans. And we were talking about, you know, these civilizations and how when they discover what really

was there and who was there, how empowering it is for the people who are there now. So I'm really, as you can hear and see, I'm just, I'm fascinated. Kim, you better not get on one of them submarines to go down there. You better not. You better not get on one of them submarines

to go down there. You better not. We need you for the upshores. I will do my very best. I will do my best. But I mean, you know, there's certain dramas that, for me, in 2016, I told my team, it's all about uncharted waters. We only say yes to things we haven't done before, to spaces we have not been in before.

And not only saying yes, but go out and go out into the uncharted waters and find the new storytellers, find the new characters and things like that the new styles of storytelling so that's where i am with that because i still love after all this time i still love what i do and that's why when i put the miss butterworth picture up as like wow that's me and we're still going that's right you know we're still going what is what has changed in hollywood um well i think obviously the biggest thing is just technology that then informs things like how people watch where people watch um how much people can watch um so i think tech has really made such an impact but i remember when we were doing living single and it was like oh we got to renegotiate because DVDs is a thing and nobody knew what that was going to

be like, you know. And so now there's streaming and now there's all these different ways that you can watch. But everything is cyclical. You know, everything comes back. But I think tech that, you know, you can shoot anything on your phone and upload it to your own YouTube

channel and now you're a network executive. That don't mean it's good. Well, then that's the thing. That's why when people ask me, I'm like, always make sure the quality is there. Um,

because everybody has a microphone now and everybody has a camera now. Um, but it's how you're using it. How does that affect, uh, when you're renegotiating and you're doing all these things? Cause you know, when we were growing up,

we would set out, we would Thursday at eight, we'd have to watch this, you know, Sundayursday at eight we'd have to watch this you know sunday at this we'd have to watch this but now it's kind of like you know well i'll catch you tomorrow and how does that because can you actually register who's watching what shows because if you look at social media the shows are hits but the shows that are hits that we love sometimes don't get renewed yeah um well they they talk about and they use words like analytics and, you know, algorithms and all of that to really measure who's watching what, how much time you're watching something and all that, which is, again, a testament to everyone who loves the Upshaws

because we stay in the top 10 for so long, even though we're a half hour show and we only have, you know, like five episodes or four episodes or six episodes. And so the idea that we are holding our own with these brands and these titles that have, you know, 10 episodes of one hour. That's a lot more time, and yet we're still in the running with them. So yes, they do have ways to monetize it and monitor it. That's as far as I know. In terms of the contracts, though,

yes, when you see people getting monetizing from YouTube or Google Ads and things like that. So there are certain contracts where they say, okay, after a certain number of minutes that are engaged or hours that are engaged, then you get a check or you get more checks and things like that. So they say that there's a science to all of it. They're never going to show you the real numbers, though. They're never going to show you all the analytics. Well, don't look behind the curtain too hard.

May is Mental Health Awareness Month. It's also my birthday month, but yes, it is. Oh, okay. Happy early birthday. Thank you so very much. Thank you, thank you. But yes, it is. And Refresh by KF.

Yes. What is that exactly? I heard you mention it earlier. Yes, so Refresh by KF. Thank you for asking yes, it is. And Refresh by KF. What is that exactly? I heard you mention it earlier. Yes. So Refresh by KF. Thank you for asking. That's my wellness platform. It's my wellness brand. We do events. We have retreats. We have one coming up in June. And it's a space where for me, I needed to be able to have wellness presented in a way that for me was accessible, that was attainable, sustainable. You know, that didn't mean I had to eat just only green foods and have no fun.

And, you know, if I didn't have my my ankle and my, you know, neck wrapped up and all this stuff that I'm not going to be well. And I just felt like, well, that can't be. my, you know, neck and wrapped up and all this stuff that I'm not going to be well. And I just felt like, well, that can't be. And I wanted to hear from people who were either on wellness journeys or healing from different things or had different products and brands that weren't getting featured in some of the more mainstream, you know, wink, wink, mainstream area. You can't drop no hits in here okay uh but um but but it's not a black brand refreshed by kf is for literally every body um and so my my job i feel like in the wellness space is I'm not an expert. I don't have answers.

But I'm standing next to the man or next to the woman who does. That's right. I'm able to set a table and provide meals. What you choose to come and eat, that's on you. And that's how I feel about the wellness space. So with our retreats, I do the same kind of thing where I curate it. I personally cultivate it, the location, the spaces, the activities, activations, all of that, the refreshing friends who are coming

and just making sure the schedule, you know, because I just start with, well, what is it that I need? Because I keep finding out that when I put out there, here's what I need. Here's what I'm feeling. Here's what I'm thinking. Here's what's on me. The masses are like, yo, shit, me too. And it ends up becoming that type of unique share, you know, and an environment and a safe space. So that's Refreshed by CAF. We have live conversations now. We have the IG conversations that started back in 2020. We have the retreats.

We have, of course, social media, the YouTube channel, where we help people find their inner explorer. We shine light on different subcultures, not just the merpeople, but like mixologists, you know, and just different places and spaces where you go, oh, my gosh, that's really interesting. Stories and people and experiences that maybe inspire you to go, you know what, I will get up 10 minutes earlier and go walking. Or I will learn how to swim. Or I will decide to kayak for five minutes or whatever it may be that just helps people come out of their comfort zones but but deal with their well-being our tagline is give yourself permission to be well as an actor I'm always finding how powerful it is when you give yourself permission to go there right to be even funnier, to be even more emotional and you give yourself permission.

And that's always the catchphrase in acting. And I thought, well, what if we open that up more in terms of your wellbeing, you know? And we also make sure, I truly am the champion for making sure that men and men's wellness is a big part of our platform. So we have Refreshments, and the M-E-N is more prominent, and it's to make sure that the fellas know you are welcomed here and we will help you cultivate your wellness journey as well. That's incredible. Where did they go to? Is there a website?

Yes. So RefreshRetreatByKF.com. That's the website for the retreat uh and that also gives you things like our store we just dropped our first playlist that i curated on spotify um and uh we um again have channel refresh on youtube um of course refresh by kf is the um the IG and TikTok and social media. Gotcha. But basically using your microphone and your platform to really impact in a different way. And that's what I feel.

People ask me about legacy quite a bit. And I feel like at some point I want legacy for me not just to be these great characters but also these great experiences and this great space that people feel like she helped me take care of myself and not just with the gift of laughter or the gift of being seen on television seeing somebody that looked like me but my literal wellness as well you know what ask you because you brought up the characters that you play. Yeah. You played some iconic characters.

Like, that's rare for anybody. I don't care if black, white, whatever. It's rare for you to have that type of success, you know, three different times. Was there ever a role that you auditioned for or even turned down that became iconic for somebody else? And you were like, damn, I should have did that. No.

Okay. But I do have a story in reverse so uh i got a call to uh i got a call to go in for storm for the x-men wow don't get happy don't do it family and so when that when i got the call, I thought, what is Hallie doing?
