He was like, I'll take you to the top, I'll make you a star. To expose an alleged predator and the rotten industry he works in. It's honestly so much worse than I had anticipated.

Like this one about Claudette Colvin, a 15-year-old girl in Alabama who refused to give up her seat on the city bus nine whole months before Rosa Parks did the same thing. Check it! And it began with me

Did you know, did you know? I wouldn't give up my seat. Now I'm up before Rosa. It was Claudette Goldman.

I think people don't know that Sierra and I have been friends for a very long time. I don't think we've kind of found each other. We really did.

People don't know that Ciara and I have been friends for a very long time. I don't think we've ever posted a picture together, have we? Nope, never. I don't think we've ever posted a picture together. Real friends or housewives friends? Cause y'all go on housewives. Real housewives, she claims she hasn't even watched

housewives, which I know she's lying. No, I have never. Which I'm sure she has. You haven't seen the episode of housewives before in my life. I don't watch TV. I don't watch it. I don't believe that. If you're black, you've seen the episode of Housewives before in my life? I don't watch TV. I don't like TV. I don't believe that. No, I don't.

Black, you've seen an episode of Real Housewives in the last year? Well, I have seen clips on Instagram, but I have never watched it. But I've always just loved NeNe. She's our cunning. I just love her. So what did you see that you loved from NeNe? She just, I don't know.

She just was always loud. I'm her. Who do you mean? I'm her. What do you say? That's not even a course. No, I'm trying to get her to admit that she watched Real Housewives. Exactly. Look, you see what I, you heard what do you mean? I'm her, what do you think? That's not even a course. No, I'm trying to get her to admit that she watched Love and Hip, I mean Real Housewives. Look, you see what I, you heard what I said.

I said I like Lini because she was loud and just like pretty. I am not loud. And glam. You. Nina. You are very. She said I'm not loud. You are loud as the weed somebody got in this room right now.

Somebody got it on them right now. I'm so not loud. Please don't say that like I'm loud. I am not loud. No, not like a ghetto loud, but you are. Because you guys are more ghetto loud.. I'm so not loud. Please don't try to act like I'm loud. I am not loud. No, not like a ghetto loud, but you are. Because you guys are more ghetto loud. No, like a ghetto loud. I mean, no, wait.

We're just ghetto. We're a little ratchet. But you're loud, though. The love of hip hop people y'all talking about. A little bit. That's your personality. That's your personality. If anybody was going to be on my side,

I thought it would have been you. No, you. You're loud. You're loud. She just as loud. You ain't the loudest. You just louder than them. Yeah, you are. Because they all loud.

They are low voice people. You're the high voice person. Yeah. And you got a big personality. I do? What? Mimi, cut it out. She is so in Hollywood right now.

What's wrong with Mimi this morning? You all right, Mimi? Yes. I just think you made all these coins all these years ago. Exactly. I thought I had a small voice. Don't ever say I made coins. I made coins. I just think you made all these coins all these years ago.

Exactly. I thought I had a small one. Don't ever say I made coins. Oh, no. I made coins. Yes. That's going to be our next thing. Where's the money?

Where's the money? Crazy. No, but Ciara, I always love Ciara. I will watch her promote her businesses online all the time. I said, this girl is really somebody. I would watch her promote her businesses online all the time. I said, this girl is really somebody. I'm with her on the air.

You never watched Love and Hip Hop either? You never watched Love and Hip Hop? I did watch Love and Hip Hop. Oh, she did watch that, okay. And I loved her way back in the day when you were married to that other guy, because you know, she loves to get married. She was married to that other guy.

And I loved her then. I was married to my first husband, who I was with for 10 years. And that was Shooter, right? Yes, that was Shooter, right? That was Shooter. I was just watching that over the weekend. And I liked her from that.

And I loved that she was a single mom. I was a single mom also by myself. So I loved that about her. And you a hustler. No, you are too. And then when we actually got, well, how we met is we kept bumping into each other and we were by ourselves. Every time we seen each other at the bar, we seen each other at the nail salon.

We just kept seeing each other and we was always by ourselves. And we was like, damn, we really, I said, I'd be by myself. She was like, me too. And we was just like, let's be friends. And when we actually became, and honestly us growing to be friends,

it was kind of just like, it was little by little. Cause we both the same. We don't like to do too much. I think people don't realize that they, like they said, I have a big personality, they don't understand that I'm kind of by myself. You by yourself a lot. I'm really like a loner, I do a lot of things by myself.

She travel by herself. I travel by myself. I could never. She's like, she on this thing. So you don't really bother? I go to restaurants, people do, I have support, hell, but I mean, I'm really by myself. I have a security to meet me on one end or something,

but I'll get on the plane and then they'll meet me. But I travel by myself, I shop by myself. I feel like me shopping by myself. When somebody's with me, they hold me down. Like I feel like I could do it quicker. I get in my car, I just do things by myself. And I'm my own best friend. I really like being by myself.

It is just too confrontational sometimes. So how you end up doing a podcast with you and your homegirl if you like being by yourself so much? Because we were running into each other being by ourselves. She would be by herself, I would be by myself. We both are kind of love of girls, we kind of love to be like what I do.

More with our guy than, I love my girls, I'm a girl's girl, but I like being with my guy, I like being by myself. I'm okay with all of those things. A lot of people don't know how much we have. We have so much in common, it's almost crazy. Sometimes when I'm talking to her, I feel like I'm talking to myself. Down to the family, down to how we real picky about our,

we glam girls, we shave every day. We love a person. Damn, my hand go back that dog quick. We feel a snubble, we shave. We. Like we love perfume. Damn, my hair grew back that long. Like for real, we feel a snubble, we shave. Like we just like the- Your hair grow that much? I mean, every other day, whatever. We like to just-

Grooming, grooming. We like to groom, we like to- How y'all know y'all shave every day? Y'all have conversations about that? Yeah, we talk about it. We talk about it. We talk about it. We love love, we love relationships.

We love perfume. We like doing the same shit. We love, we'll dress up and just go to the bar and go eat and go home. That's my favorite thing to do is get dressed up and go to a restaurant. I don't see you being with people. I see you being a loner, kinda like,

are you sorta kinda a loner? I'm a cancer, I like being at home. I like being at home with my wife, my kids. I don't like going out, like, no. I shave, I don't shave every day though. You don't? Okay, well I don't shave every day though. We do. OK, well, we're going to get you on that.

Aren't you married now, Rafea? Yeah. Of course, he always shave. No, I'm saying I be by myself. I don't hang with a lot of women. That makes sense. Got you. But I be with my men.

My men. Yo, see how you know how to get a man. Especially this one. But you know what? I wasn't as clingy in my man. Y'all see her know how to get a man. Especially this one. But you know what? I wasn't as clingy in my other relationships. You wasn't? No, I was not. I don't know.

I just know I don't know. I didn't hang with them like that. Like I was almost never with them. But with they, it's bad. Like I be like, please come with me, come with me, come with me. So how long y'all been together? Cause this happen, this did happen fast.

I'm like, hold up. Well, he's my old best friend, close friend's brother. So we grew up together. We've been on each other since we was kids. And actually throughout all my relationships. He was on you for a long time. He just didn't say it. He was just waiting.

He was just waiting for that slip up. Me and Shooter had a conversation a couple months ago. That was her first husband? That was her first husband. That was my first husband. Come on, stay up, Shalana. Yeah, come on, come on, come on. And so he mentioned, he was like, do you remember that you talked about Zay?

Like you told me about him. And I was like 17 then. He was like, you remember Zay was bothering you when you was in a relationship with me? And I was like, yeah, I remember. So every relationship I was in, he was always there. How did they slide back in? Was it hey big head on DM?

Right with the way, hey big head? He kinda did too. I was cussing my ex out and he kinda hey big head me. And then I'm like, boy, what is our, this is my friend's brother. So it's like, okay, bye Zay. All your exes like, I know she been fucking that nigga up. I knew it.

Yeah. Yeah. And he was pregnant. All your exes like, I know she been fucking that nigga up. I knew it. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Oh you was? No. Oh. No, I was not. I'm not a cheater.

And you also had a health scare after a tattoo. Yeah I did. It was real scary. Everything okay with that? What happened with it? I think I wish I could have seen it. Cause it's from the bottom of my, from the bottom of my leg to the to all the way to the top.

And something that should have took me a year, I did it in a day, and my body just after the numbing cream wore off, shouts out to Monster Num, because it works really good. It allowed me to get 20 hours worth of tattooing, and I didn't feel nothing. But when my-

20 hours? Yep. But when my- Girl, I love tattoos. But when my body woke up, it was just like, no this is not right, what are you doing? And then that's when it shot back at me. But you're okay for sure now?

I'm okay, yeah. Got it. Now I am kinda scared to get some more tattoos. Don't get none. You still do a 20 hour session, that's crazy. That was crazy. I mean we stopped a little bit, but yeah. Okay. Nina you got a stopped a little bit, but yeah. OK.

Nina, you got a show about love coming, right? A show about love? Yeah. No. Oh, I thought somebody said you was going to. I did. It's over. We've already shot it and everything.

When's it come out? I don't know the date. So is it like you trying to find a man, like for the love of Nina? Oh, no, no, no. Nina's not trying to find the love of Nini, honey. No, I'm actually hooking other people up. Oh.

That's right. OK, OK, OK, OK. Yeah, I would like to get hooked up. What's who y'all know? I thought you had a boo. I thought you had some African man. Why is it always some African man? I don't know, ask Nini.

Stop. Stop. Stop. Nini love her African, she love her food, she love the seasoning. Lagos, that's the restaurant. She love her men. Okay, alright. Why you keep going to first spot? She clearly don't want anybody to know. I'm sorry for this African man African food, I just put two.

Anyway. Do I love an African man? I hope you marry, like that's gonna be your... Girl, you a buddy. You was up here with, what was the brother name that was with you? Anyway. Do I love an African man? I hope you marry a, like, that's going to be your... Girl, you are funny. What'd you... You was up here with, what was the brother name that was in?

Well, you be crying. That was a tall African. Crying, trying to get you in trouble. Girl. He was about to send us suits. Remember he said he was going to send us suits? Yeah, he was going to send us suits. He did say he was going to send us suits.

Who? Who? Who? Who? Who? Bunch of owls now. Everybody in and out. Let me ask you a question.

So how close are you with Amy from Love & Hip Hop Atlanta? We're not close at all. We're not close at all. OK, so who is Amy? Who is that? The one who just got engaged to Dwight Howard. Oh, yeah. Yeah.

I didn't know she worked on Love & Hip Hop. Yeah, she on there. Oh, is she? She on there. Yeah. Oh, Jess, why is she doing a podcast? So what do y'all think about that, Mrs. Podcast with me? Home girl and home girl. Who? I mean, hey. Me and Sierra?

Or are you talking about the other people? I'm talking about Amy. I'm asking Amy about- How do we feel about the young lady being with- Because this is your castmate. You know, this is your castmate. Yeah, I don't know her. I don't know her at all. You're saying about her relationship. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Are they in Atlanta? Yes, they are there They're there and they're happily engaged love is love. You know, I mean, maybe she's gonna be the start to something Okay, okay

So what can we expect though me and my homegirl cuz it seemed like y'all talk about a lot in private What can we expect? No, so from our podcast, one of the things that Sierra and I kind of pride ourselves on is being just really real and very vocal and talking about any and everything. So we don't want to be one of those podcasts where you're just interviewing people all the time. We want to talk about everything from pop culture to love, relationship, politics, nothing's off limits. We'd love to do some relationship, politics, nothing's off limits. We'd love to do some interviews,

but we don't want that to just be our focus. We're out trying to get people to interview. We wanna do everything and talk about any and everything. And I think one of the reasons why people will really love our podcast is because we just keep it real. We just be ourselves and just talk about whatever. I'm an open book. You guys literally can ask me anything. Now, whether I ask it or not, that's another story. whatever. I'm an open book. You guys literally can ask me anything.

Now whether I ask it or not, that's another story. But I am truly an open book. I can talk about anything. We talk about plastic surgery, because so many people accuse us of having plastic surgery. We talk about any and everything, love, sex. Nothing's on print. People been fucking with you about that a lot lately, Meanie.

Yeah, people talk to me a lot about plastic surgery and filters. Yeah, filters. I me a lot about plastic surgery and filters. Yeah, filters. I've heard the filters. So I get this all the time. I am a walking filter, baby. That's what people need to really understand. One, and two, I believe everybody that talks about plastic surgery

wish they could have plastic surgery. They want it, for sure. I've never had a fucking facelift. I've never had a knife to my face. You sitting here looking at me, aren't you? Okay, when you have a facelift, you be cutting all the high-end ears. Oh my God, under the mask.

You know, that kind of stuff. Of course I've had my boobs done. I've had liposuction. I do things to nip and tuck fillers, botox. Why not? I mean, I have the money to do it. I'm in the public eye. I wanna look great. the money to do it. I'm in the public eye. I want to look great

So why not do it my man or the man I've dated haven't had a problem I am NOT a woman that I was with an American man for 25 years woman that I was with an American man for 25 years. That's right. OK, so I happen to have dated an African guy. He is the first African guy I've ever dated before. I do like Africans. They do tend to. I do like them.

That sounds so crazy. But he's got like trojans now. He's like, I do like Africans. I do. I mean, I do like African men. But he's the first African guy I've ever dated, never been in a relationship with. I love their culture.

I do like them. They tend to date women a lot larger than I am, you know, with all of these things. You say they don't like women with surgery. Well, they date women with huge butts and stuff like that. And I don't have a huge ass and all of that. But as far as, oh yeah, no, no, I got a nice ass. No, we're going to make sure of that now.

So, okay. But as far as surgery oh yeah, no, no, I got a nice ass. We're going to make sure of that now, okay? But as far as surgery is concerned, yes, if I need anything, I will 100% go and get it. Have you always felt like that though? Have you always said- We just talked about grooming. I really believe in grooming, looking nice. I'm not one of those girls who's going to sit around my house

and look crazy. Like, I just don't think whether my guy said it's okay. I just don't think that he really believes that in the back of his head. I always thought you was fly though, NeNe. Yeah, I'm gonna be fly now all the time. You can count on that. I don't believe that guys love for you to sit at home

and look like a maid. I don't think that. It may be okay for a day or two, but after that, go and clean up your eyebrows. Go do that with yourself, baby. Go get a facial. You gotta look good for these guys. And I'm not doing it for them.

Honestly, I'm doing it for myself. But I do like for my guys to see me looking nice. And I like my guy to look nice too. I like them to be well groomed. I like them to smell really good. Like all those things are important to me. Is it hard to find a man being NeNe Leakes? It's hard to find.

Like a lot of guys, I'm friends with them. Like I like guys to be my friends. Even though I like girls, I really like dudes. And so a lot of guys I'm cool with, so I'm not attracted to them sexually. So it does take a special guy. And that guy has to have a lot of things. Is it hard to find somebody who's emotionally available?

Yes. Men are not emotionally available and that's another problem. Something happened to them in their childhood. Especially this day and time. Yeah. But I like a guy who has his own. I like a guy who is very well groomed.

I like a guy with personality. I like a guy who likes to laugh and travel and all of those things. But I also want somebody that can lift me up and that can pour into me and I can pour into them. I love a guy that wants to communicate and talk and all of those things. So I have my own stuff.

So you have to come in with a lot. Well, Sierra, you found, how many times you been asked like- Sierra can find a man in every five seconds. Like she go, I can't do this. But, no, let's stop, y'all. She hates when somebody says that. Because, no, listen. But then you been married three times.

She's like, my husband never married me. No, I know. But the truth is, she's been married three times. No, but listen. But listen to this. Listen to this. First of all, the second one only lasts like six months. And I was, I was.

But you can't discount it. You can't be acting like I was married to him for six months and then, uh, we weren't together. That wasn't real. But listen, listen. You love Fastin. You love Fastin. Yes, I do. I mean, I'm a lover girl.

I love love. But I will say, just because I've openly had these relationships, I can count on one, and one more hand, how many guys I ever had sex with. How many guys I ever had sex with. How many guys I ever had sex with. Like, how many girls could actually say that they did that? Like, for real, just being honest.

I can say that, T'Kerra. I was a wife. I can say that. I can say on... Two heads, too? Yeah, because, oh, because I live my life out loud, I'm on television, oh you go to man out, no I don't. I've had sex with less than, I know a billion girls that don't F way more than me, guys.

You know what I'm saying? That's judging me. You definitely are a lover girl. I'm a lover girl. That's a great percentage. I am a lover girl. If you had sex with six guys and three of them married you, that's actually fantastic.

That's why I said she just knows how to treat a man. And honestly, and I am an lover girl. I am a lover girl. If you had sex with six guys and three of them married you, that's actually fantastic. That's why I said she just knows how to treat a man. And then honestly, and I am an open book. I talk about everything. Jess, you know that. I don't hide nothing. I talk about my lips. I talk about my butt shots. I talk about, I'm an open book because I always say

that my testimony could save somebody. Yeah, so it's okay. I did, but I want people and I'm saying this. But are you offended when people say that you've I want people, and I'm saying this. But are you offended when people say that you've been married three times? No, I'm not offended. I'm not offended about that,

because that's my life and that's my truth. So I'm never offended. But what I am offended by, because it's just like the narrative. I go from, I'm with man after man after man. No, I don't think that's it. That's not true. Because no, I'm not saying you the world, though.

They'll do that to me. They criticize me about it. Well, I don't feel that way. I feel like, you know, you really are like guys like you. You get a man quick. I mean the guys are like. Let me ask you a question. If your husband loves you the way you are,

would you still wanna do more butt shots or more felicitous? No, no because he loves you how you are. So he's like don't do nothing no more. I did that. I did, well I love my lips. I do that, I did that for me. Everything I did, I did for me. I don't care what my husband said, I did that for me everything I did I did for me I don't care what my husband said I did that

Yeah, because I was married three times, but I did that for me, but now I would when I got my butt shots I was like 17 18 years old. I would love to get them taken out. I talk about it I am advocate young girls I've left home when I was 16. I ain't seen my mom at house since I was 16 years old. I was just curious. Yes, I was. And I was just saying that she wasn't at your last wedding either.

She wasn't at my last wedding. Me and my mom has a, that's my girl. My mom is an amazing woman. She's always been a hustler. I watch her in and out of jail my whole life, trying to take care of me, stealing, whatever she got to do to take care of her girls. She love her girls.

But it's just, you know, family sometimes. But whatever she got to do to take care of her girls she love her girls but it's Just you know family sometimes I just decided to fix my relationship with my mom cuz that's my mom you only get one but my sisters They I'm dead to you. They're not dead to me. I'm just, you know. You're just taking a step back. Taking a step back, like a big ass step back. Why they always got their hand out, you know.

No, it not, I mean, well I have done a lot for my family, but I just feel like it's some type of jealousy in it. That's just how I genuinely feel. I can't help that this is the life that God chose for me. And honestly, like, I fought hard to get here. I went through a lot. You get what I'm saying? So everything that I'm doing in life,

it's all God's grace. I came a long way. So it's like people be jealous at what they see, but they don't even know what you went through or what it took for you to get to this point. Oh, I know. When you're in the public eye, you know your family definitely.

They hear you as different. And that's something me and Nini have been coming, because she helped me with that. We vent about our family stuff all the time together. Now, Nini, you in the public eye crazy. Everybody asks the same question all the time, a million and one times. Bring her back, please.

Real Housewives, would you come back? Did you make up with Andy Cohen? Is that a possibility? Y'all in meetings, conversations, thoughts, anything? Well, we're not in meetings. We did settle our dispute with each other. I don't know if I'll go back to Housewives. I don't know what that looks like for me,

but I won't say never. If they got a check that's got zero, zero, zero, zero, zero on the end, you know, I might be back. I don't know, I don't know. When you say Saturday at the Street, was it financial settlement or? I can't say, but we did settle everything. You Andy Cool now, y'all speak now now?

I haven't spoken to him. No, but I'm not against speaking to him, but I haven't spoken to him. It'd be a no brainer. I mean, I know you get this all the time, but it's kind of ridiculous that they haven't asked me to come back yet. Um, I don't know.

And the franchise is struggling. You know, I do miss the trips. I do miss the check. I don't miss the arguments. And I felt like if I was there, they would have to put certain girls around me. Like, all of those girls that are there now, I don't even know who they are.

Yeah, we don't either. I thought so. Is it true you ran into Kenya Moore? I did. How was that? So Kenya and I have been texting anyway. Like when she went through this whole thing, whatever happened with her exiting the show, we text a few times.

I was in London celebrating my birthday. She was there. We text. We were going to try to have tea, but we couldn't, and just so happened we bumped into each other in the airport. And so we're cool. I'm cool with all of those girls.

I don't have an issue. You know, when you're on the show, the show kinda picks you up against each other, but I don't have an issue with any of the girls. No one, not anybody. Did you say anything to Kenny? Because I know she was praising your looks, but then she also said you needed to lay off the phyllis.

Did you say this was candy? No, we talked in the airport. First of all, I told her that they said, I think her and Candy were saying, let's give NeNe, you know, her props or something. Like, you don't give people their props and then throw shade trees, honey. And then she said, I was talking about the filter. Well, honey, you use filters, too

I don't know anybody that's posting their pictures without a filter Most women are posting their pictures with a filter and they're cleaning up their picture now if you look absolutely Different in person than your picture on Instagram now, that's another story when you say that's a different story But that's not what's happening over here. I use a filter and I am the filter. Okay? Exactly. Okay, can you more? Okay, can ya? Okay, because these girls need to use filters too. Yeah, I see them in the airport. I see girls on Instagram. They look great on Instagram. You see them in person. You be like, this the same person? How did Kenya look at the in person that they were in? Well, she was looking amazing. You messy too. You messy. You just as messy.

Well, you know, I don't, I just keep it real and tell it like it is. You know, I'm never afraid of any of those girls. She looked OK. She wasn't looking her best. Yeah. But she looked OK. She could have used the hairdo and a filter.

OK. OK. But you know what I like about Nini? Nini, at least I haven't seen you publicly clap back at anybody. I've seen people say things about you, and I haven't heard you say nothing. I didn't say anything.

You know why? Because I'm grown now. You know, I may have been a little bit more immature then, but now this stuff just really don't bother me. It really doesn't. For somebody to talk about plastic surgery, like, cut it out. All these girls got fake asses and fake titties. Don't come over here with that BS. All these girls got fake stuffes and fake titties. Don't come over here with that BS.

All these girls got fake stuff, so you gonna talk to me about fake? Like, that's crazy. Everybody's wearing wigs and weaves and extensions. Like, cut it out. Like, I'm not doing anything that no one else isn't doing. I'm not walking around with a big ass that look absolutely bananas.

I'm Ellie Flynn and I'm an investigative journalist. When a group of models from the UK wanted my help, I went on a journey deep into the heart of the adult entertainment industry. I really wanted to be a playboy model. Lingerie, topless. I said, yes, please. Because at the centre of this murky world is an alleged predator. You know who he is because of his pattern of behaviour? Because at the center of this murky world is an alleged predator.

You know who he is because of his pattern of behavior? He's just spinning the web for you to get trapped in it. He's everywhere and has been everywhere. It's so much worse and so much more widespread than I had anticipated. Together, we're going to expose him and the rotten industry he works in. It's not just me. We're an army in comparison to him. Listen to the bunny trap on the iHeart radio app, Apple podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts.

The forces shaping markets and the economy are often hiding behind a blur of numbers. So that's why we created the Big Take from Bloomberg podcasts to give you the context you need to make sense of it all. Every day in just 15 minutes, we dive into one global business story that matters. You'll hear from Bloomberg journalists like Matt Levine.

A lot of this meme stock stuff is, I think, embarrassing to the SEC. Amanda Moll, who writes our Business Week Buying Power column. Very few companies who go viral are like totally prepared for what that means. And Zoe Tillman, senior legal reporter. Courts are not supposed to decide elections. Courts are not really supposed to play a big role in choosing our elected leaders. It's for the voters to decide.

Did you know that companies hire the most in the first two months of the year? Or that nearly half of workers are worried about being left behind? I'm Andrew Seaman, LinkedIn's editor at large for jobs and career development. And my show Get Hired brings you all the information you need to, well, get hired. People are forming opinions of you even before you log into the Zoom or walk into the room. And so you really have to think about what is it I want to display.

You don't plant a garden and then just walk away and expect it to thrive. You are in there pulling out the weeds, you're pruning it, you're watering it. It's the same thing with your network. You should always be in there actively managing your network. If you don't feel confident to say a number, even admitting that to a recruiter is going to be far better than saying, well, what is your budget for the role? A lot is in the follow-up, right? Don't wait to follow up. Whether you're a new grad, an established professional, or contemplating a career change, Get Hired is for you.

Listen to Get Hired with Andrew Seaman on the iHeart radio app, Apple Podcast, or wherever you like to listen. That much ass. Now, have you spoke to Peter Thomas with all the stuff that's going on with him? I haven't spoken to Peter, but I see Peter often. We don't live that far from each other, but I haven't spoken to him. I will speak to him.

I will speak to Peter, because me and Peter go way back. Yeah. And I don't have a problem with Peter, and I really do hate that this is happening to him. I will speak to Peter. Because me and Peter go way back. And I don't have a problem with Peter. And I really do hate that this is happening to him. So yeah, Peter's my brother. I love Peter. Do you reach out to people when you see, like,

Portia going through a divorce or anything? Yes. So when Portia was going through her divorce, you know, she was married to Simon. I was dating Yoni. They're both African guys. They hung out together. We hung out, we double dated and all those things.

And I was talking to her during that time and I was doing this show called The Upshaw's and she kind of was like, she didn't want to do the Upshaw's with me. She didn't tell me that. She told the production crew and the production told us that, you know. Is that true?

I don't believe it. It's the truth. Really? It's the truth. Portia don't seem like that type. Portia not catty like that. Where she is. Did something happen a little bit?

She did that. Nothing happened. She did that. She said that. That's the truth. So you did it. I did it. They brought in Cynthia Bailey the next day,

and Cynthia shot the scene with me. So it was supposed to be you and Portia? It was supposed to be Portia and I. I did not know that and I don't think Portia knew that until we arrived to set that we were both going to be shooting a scene together. Oh, so Portia was on set? Yeah. Yeah, she was on set the day before she had gone in to do her fittings and things and I going in the next day to do my fitting and the following day we were going to shoot

the scene and Portia didn't show up, and they went scrambling, and they ended up flying Cynthia Bailey in, and she did it. But Portia did do that, and that's the honest truth. It doesn't really matter to me. I haven't spoken to her since. I don't have, I- How long ago was it? I don't know, it's been months.

The show just aired like yesterday or the day before yesterday. You don't think it could have been a personal issue, and she had to get a positive? We didn't have a. No, no, with her, like in her life. No, I don't think so. But listen, I don't care. Why would they even tell you that? It's messy to even tell you that. Yeah, because they were in a frenzy

and we weren't shooting and my manager did some digging and asked somebody that was on set and they told us what happened. But listen, I'm still not mad. I really don't care. It's not that serious to me. You can text her right now, so can I. At fact, I have the text messages because I did text her when it happened, and I told her. And so I did text her. Wow.

And, but it doesn't matter. Listen, if you don't want to work with somebody, that's fine with me. You don't have to work with me. I think that's bad business on your behalf, to show up somewhere and be like, you know what? I don't want to work with Charlamagne today. Happens all the time. I do that every day. Hey, girl, let's get it.

What's the matter with this country, girl? Happens every morning. We do that every day. I'm not even mad about that stuff. It just is not that serious to me. Some stuff is so petty. These girls really do think that they are bigger stars than they really are. So it's really OK with me. There stuff is so petty. These girls really do think that they are bigger stars than they really are.

So it's really OK with me. There you go. You love her. No, I'm not. You used to go with what you called. I'm just being true. She was only a Bravo celebrity. That's what you said.

No, no, no. Honestly. What did she say last time? Starless? What was it? No, I'm not. Honestly, I'm not. I promise you that I'm so an adult now.

I really, that's why you haven't heard me clap back at somebody. Because so many people are like, I know Nini going to come back and say something. No, I'm not. Just when I'm being asked a question, do not get mad at my response, okay? I'm not gonna clap back at you. I just don't have the time for it, really.

I don't. And I don't want any confrontation. I really don't. I don't want any confrontation. Do people come to you about doing your own reality show? All the time. People talk to me about doing a podcast. For so long, people have asked me to do a podcast and I never did anything.

So I think it's all about timing. Sierra and I clicked. This is a great time for the both of us to do it. So here we are doing it. Now, congrats. You're a glamour now, right? You call yourself a glamour. I am a glamour.

I was a glamour already. And my youngest son, Brent, just had a baby girl. He had a lot of health challenges over the last couple of years. And he had a heart transplant. And out of all of this, he has a little daughter. Congratulations. Which we love.

And she will be two months old. She's not even two months old yet. Well, congrats. Two months old on the 16th. Well, there was, she just turned two months old. Pretty little girl, so we have a little girl. How long you think this gonna last? Between Sierra and I?

Well, we hope it lasts for a long time. We've been very, we communicate really well together. You know, I don't wanna be in a business relationship where I can't speak my opinion and just say how I feel. So, I've, Sierra and I just had a conversation where I'm just telling her how I feel. And of course she clapped back at me. She thought we were on Love and Hip Hop.

But, yeah we wasn't, but okay. Oh God, okay. But we had our little beef, our little, yeah. But anyway, I hope it lasts forever. I don't want to get into business and get right out of business. But you know, there are so many podcasts out here. So we want to try to bring something different.

Yeah. I honestly see it growing bigger than just the podcast. Yeah. I think it's going to be like a movement. Well, you definitely can teach us about entrepreneurship. That's something like podcast is just the beginning. Yeah, this thing's going to go bigger than that. Me and my homegirl could be a reality show. Yeah, that's on my podcast. It's just the beginning. Yeah, this thing gonna go bigger than that. Me and my homegirl could be a reality show.

Yeah, right? Definitely could be a reality show. So many things. Me and my homegirls. So relatable. And I feel like we're gonna be shocked, too, because Love & Hip Hop, the Housewives, it's like they keep us apart, you know what I'm saying?

Yeah. She thinks that Housewives are bougie and Love & Hip Hop are a ratchet. I think the same thing. That's how I look at it loving hip hop, Ratchet. I think the same thing. That's how I look at it. You know how I look. I look the same thing. I mean, just keeping it real.

I want to ask both of y'all, because you know, I saw Marlo and she made some comments on Tiffany Cross's podcast, where she said how people judge you for life after you do reality TV. They do. Even in business. Oh, that's true.

That's true. Very true. It's bad, yeah. They won't even, they won't buy, they treat you away. They won't even do other businesses just because of reality TV, for sure. Yeah, people have a perception of you. You know, like you guys were in here when I first walked in here,

you guys were treating me real fucked up trying to say that I'm loud, I'm not loud, my voice is very tamed. We've been watching you for over 10 years. You are like judging me. All the millions of people listening to you right now are like, NeNe, cut it out. You guys are judging me. You guys have this, you know, this thought about me

because you saw me on Housewives. Actually, I am soft. I am a girl's girl. I am a love of girl. Right? You are. I'm way more laid back and cool and chill soft, I am a girl's girl, I am a love of girl. Right? You are. She definitely is.

I'm way more laid back and cool and chill than you would ever know. I don't want no confrontation. Don't start nothing, I don't want to be nothing. I've done shows with you, comedy shows, TV shows. I had a crush on Jess. I don't crush on women, but I had a crush on her. Did you?

You wanted the sissah? Yeah. The what? Really? Oh, sissle? Yeah. The what? Wanted to what? Really? Oh, sizzle. Oh. Yeah. She said if she was, you know, from that community, but she's not.

I don't date women. Yeah. But that don't mean you can't sleep with them every night then? No. Why don't want to talk about it? Little taste. Little taste.

You want a little taste? You want a little taste? You want a little taste? No. No. We ain't never did that. We're a little bit. We talked about that, too. We talked about that. We talked about that. We were like, yeah. What? We don't, we don't, we ain't don't, we don't date girls. Yeah. You don't like to smell all the coochies?

Yeah, that, that's a lie. What? You're going to the shit with this niggas. Oh my God, I always, I always say that. I be like, Nady, I don't want nothing. I know my coochie get wet. I don't want nothing else around me like that. Like, uh uh.

You know what's crazy? I'm good. We say that about you. I'm good. I'm good. I'm good. I'm good. I'm good.

I'm good. I'm good. I'm good. I'm good. I'm good. I'm good. I know my coochie get wet. I don't want nothing else around me like that. Yeah No, it's crazy. I'm good. We say that about ass What what cuz I be like you gotta you gotta clear that up crazy Smell so why would I want to be in another man? Start like that we time. No. We just have a conversation about ass. Start like that.

What we do, I mean about that in general. That's crazy y'all. Yeah. Did y'all plan this hair did? No. Both of y'all wigs is sitting low. I'm a blonde. Really, really.

It's different blondes but I like them both. But mine's a little wider than hers. Yeah, that's why I say it's definitely different blondes but I like it. Yeah. You think people hold grudges against you, NeNe, unnecessarily? Meaning like they look at you as probably

like a big sister type, so when they're going through things like divorces and so you don't reach out to them, so they feel offended? No, no, no, I reach out. Okay. No, no, no, I reach out. And I do take on the role as a big sister.

One of the things I say about myself is I'm here for everybody, but nobody's here for me. I always feel like that. I always feel like I'm the one that's helping everybody, supporting everyone. But if I'm going through something, nobody is really like supporting me and helping me.

I'm always considered the strong one. And I'm just as weak as everybody else, you know? But everybody look at me as, well, you know what I mean? Like, I have my moments when I, you know, when I'm just as weak as everybody else. You know, but everybody look at me as, well you know what I mean, like I have my moments. You know, when I'm like damn, I have to be there financially for everybody, I gotta be there mentally for everybody. And if I'm going through something,

I'm like, well damn, is anybody here for me? But you know, I feel like that's what made us Homegirls for her, because I'm the same way. So I pour into her, like I buy her gifts and stuff, and she's not used to it. And I'm not used to it. We do it for each other. So I feel like we're the same people in our families.

You know what I'm saying? Yeah, people don't buy me gifts. I'm the one that's buying gifts for everybody. All the time. I'm like. That's real cause I'm. People think that I have everything. I'm like, no, there's a lot of stuff I want.

Yeah. That's real. Cause I saw a video you posted of Greg rest in peace. You refuted it. Did people reach out to you after that video? A couple of people who I do not know, strangers. Not your friends, are people you consider friends? No.

Wow. I reached out to you. What you said? I wrote you that long ass message. Oh you did, the next morning. I woke up and saw it the next morning. You ain't read it though, you saw it. I did, I read it.

Definitely read it. Definitely read it. Put on the spot, That's what she said. No, no, no, no, no. She told me that she prayed for me and all those things. But honestly, when I get some people DMing me saying, NeNe, I hope you're okay. But that is not why I posted the video.

I actually was going through my phone looking for something else. And I came across those videos and I just said, oh my gosh, let me post these videos because they made me smile. So I just posted them. But so some people did think that maybe I was having an emotional day, but I wasn't.

Actually, it was actually a great day. And I love those videos. There's one thing Greg and I would do with Dan. So I love that video. Were people there for you during your grieving process, the way they should have been? I don't feel like that. In particular, the castmates, former castmates?

No, I don't feel like that. No, not my castmates. But they did send flowers and things like that, but not there for me emotionally You know like grieving is a very tough thing people don't understand Right. It's very difficult to explain to somebody losing somebody that close to you So that was a tough time, but but yeah, I'm good now. I'm doing really good I'm glad to hear do you even look at these people as real friends though the cast mates? No, I don't okay. Yeah, I'm good now. I'm doing really good. I'm glad to hear that. Do you even look at these people as real friends, though? The castmates?

No, I don't. OK. I do not. Yeah, no. What about therapy? Do you have a therapist? You know what? I'm just starting therapy.

And I have a makeup artist in Houston, Texas. Alaina, thank you, Alaina. And so she's been with this therapist that she referred to me. And I'm seeing the therapist, Elena. And so she's been with this therapist that she referred to me. And I'm seeing the therapist, not for the grieving process, I'm seeing her for something totally different. I feel like the grief,

I feel like I've done really well with that. These are just other things that I want to talk to the therapist about. My son being sick, my husband passing away. It's just a lot of different things. I just would love to have a great outlet to want to speak to. But I do feel like I'm very strong, Magnus, because I have to be. You know, I don't have the time to break down and cry and fall out.

I got to go. Yes, you do. I don't have the time. You know, staying busy is a response to trauma, and you'll learn that in therapy. I say busy a lot. It's a response to trauma. You do that to try to forget about Airplane I'll be like I'm going on going to Africa like they said spend some money

You check up on people all the time, right you talk talk about Peter, you check up on, you talk about all these people. I check up on people. Do people check up on you? I don't feel like they really do. Not that much. See, she is right. She will reach out to me and a couple of people, but no, no, no, I don't feel like they really do. I don't feel like I have that kind of support.

Do you have chemistry with people? I actually feel like I'm very alone in this world right now. Yeah I do. Right now with my husband being gone, I really, my husband was a real force, you know. He was really there, yeah, my best friend and really all about his family and not having him there. Yeah, I kind of feel like I'm alone in a lot of situations. Really, really alone in a lot of situations,

which is unfortunate, right? Sometimes I'm at home like, oh, I don't have anybody. Wonder who I would call. Kind of like, hmm. Yeah, it sucks when you the go-to person and you don't got nobody to go to. But nobody can reach out to you. And the only person that you had is gone.

Yeah. And you don't have to avoid that. Yeah, even my kids don't get it because they're so young. Like, they don't get it. I mean, Prince 25, like, you know. Yeah. He doesn't get it.

He's still very young. They don't understand like, oh, my mom need me. They be like, mom, where you gonna put some more money in my account? Like, they don't really get it. He's still very young. They don't understand like, oh my mom need me. They be like, mom, where you gonna put some more money in my account? Like they don't really get it. Like they don't get it yet. Well I'm praying for your healing energy. Yeah, thank you so much.

And I'm sure that special someone is coming. Is out there. He's coming. They're out there. And do you still speak to Kim? Kim Zoliyak or you don't speak to her anymore? I did speak to Kim, because Kim has been going through her situation,

her divorce. I ran into her, I ran into her daughter. I've talked to Kim, I text her. She DMs me, like, you know, if I'm posting something, she DM me. So she seemed to be doing okay. She seems to be doing okay, but I don't know. It's probably a tough time for her as well.

Yeah. I wonder if me and him, he still gonna get these free suits, since you ain't home yet. We definitely not get the free suits. What suits are you talking about? That was two years ago. You mean soup? No, well. Yeah. I wonder if me and him, he's still gonna get these free suits, since you ain't home yet. We definitely not get the free suits. What suits are you talking about? That was two years ago. You mean soup? No, suits.

What suits? You didn't make a suit. She said he was gonna make some custom suits. Custom suits. Who are you guys? When you was here. Your boyfriend's almost some African guy that you was dating that be making suits.

Oh, we're gonna stick to Nene and Nene's, yeah. We not getting suits. I remember his name too. His name was on... Oh, cut it out. Hey, yo, stop. Shut up. Your name's got to be in the form.

Yeah, you know, I don't know. I don't know. Imagine me being on house. Why what would you guys say? I feel like Watching regularly again, really I feel like I will be so big sitting there. And I feel like the rest of the girls are going to fight me. And? Girl, where? I don't want to fight. No. You almost have to.

I think the franchise needs it. It'll be like you stepping off the plane in Africa. Welcome home. Oh, God. Not Africa. Nigeria. They see me now. They see me now.

They see you now. You gotta cover your face, Nina. What do you think about the House Wild franchise now? All of them. I see them canceling them left and right. What's your thoughts on that? Are they canceling them? I did hear that Dubai got canceled. Oh my God. And I love Dubai. But when I think about it, I don't think they've been canceling them. I think they'll stick around. I think it's one of those shows that's going to be around forever.

I think so. For years like a soap opera. Yeah, I do. I think they have lots of shows. I think they have a lot of shows. I think they have a lot of shows. I think they have a lot of shows. I think they have a lot of shows.

I think they have a lot of shows. I think they have a lot of shows. I think they have a lot of shows. I think they have a lot of shows. I think they have a lot of shows. I think they have a lot of shows. I think they have a lot of shows. I think they have a lot of shows. I think they'll stick around. I think it's one of those shows that's gonna be around like forever. Years like a soap opera. Yeah, I do. I think they have lots of legs.

Okay. No matter how boring one franchise is, it's still gonna stay. Yeah. I know. It's still be around. They got money over there. They got money to keep those shows going

and going and going. Yeah. You think? It's about the views, though, the viewership. Yeah, but they control that, too. They can keep that going if they want to. That part. Can't they, Chalamet?

No. You say. You wasn't listening. I wasn't listening. He wasn't listening. He said he wasn't listening. Atlanta's the one. That's all I can do.

Atlanta's the one. Atlanta's the one that probably keeps the lights on for the whole night. I think they like it in Potomac and Beverly Hills. Oh, Potomac, yeah, you're right. Potomac and Beverly Hills, they like it. I just feel like Atlanta just made good. New York fell off. Well, I think Atlanta was kind of like the first, so.

Yeah, because for us, Atlanta, we're the top show. Atlanta just made good reality TV. And speaking of loving hip hop, Atlanta, did you ever feel like there was a time that you didn't want to do the show no more? Sierra, I've watched you from the beginning on there. Like you've been betrayed by not only husbands, relationships and all of that, but like friendships too.

And then family, like you put a lot of yourself out there and to like learn your story a little bit, you know what I mean? Well, a lot on the show. It done been plenty of times I wanna say fuck this. Yeah, and didn't wanna do it. But I still did it because again, like I feel like my life is a testimony.

I get, every time I go through something and every time I think it's like the worst that I went through, especially on television, somebody come to me and be like, you know how much you helped me? I was da da da, whatever. So it keeps me going. The family stuff, especially so many girls.

And that scene that I did with my mom, and I told her, I said, you created this monster. Like you created this monster. You get what I'm saying? So it's just like, those moments make me realize why I should not stop and keep going. I should keep going with television. I think Atlanta is the best one for loving hip hop

because New York went away. And I've grown a lot. And I can't lie, like TV helped businesses and like- It really does. I feel like I took the opportunity and I ran. It really does. It really does. I don't know what nobody else did, but like, nah.

It launches you into all of these other places. I became a serial entrepreneur, but I feel like I knew that. As soon as I, when they found me in my little shop in the hood, baby, I was like, oh, I'm about to take this shit and run. Like, I'm never coming back here. And I didn't.
