So also you are a model TV personality.
You're on the King's court rightnow.
So let's go ahead and start withyour roots, your background.
(03:15):
So how did you get started and modeling of consider?
You're so gorgeous. Like I'm like, Oh my God, we're
so taken aback. So like, how did you get started
in modeling? How do?
I get started in modeling. I got started in modeling.
I watching my mom as a young girl, my mom, she's the walk and
(03:36):
just and lately that she walked,she's a walk so and she my mom
was sachet in a place. I feel like she was slowly like
I was like, mom, what's going on?
How you do that? How do you even move like that?
I studied her, I watched her to taught me a lot and I realized
that I was modeling my mom for avery long time.
That doing it on for commercialsand runways and Frank Frank
(04:00):
campaigns and for large brands. It really became it became a way
of life. So I would say I started as a as
a little girl, as a young girl. I didn't realize that was
modeling, but I want to be my mom so bad that I was modeling
herself. So I got into it from the
beginning. So Speaking of your mother, how
(04:21):
was your childhood and where areyou from?
Where were you born? How was your childhood and your
upbringing? So my childhood, so I have nine
other brothers and sisters. So it's ten of us.
We're super deep. OK, So we had to learn how to
fight at an early age. OK, everybody, look, it's a lot
of us. You sure?
Are you sure about that? You know, but we had to, we grew
(04:42):
up, you know, we grew up outside, right?
Playing, you know, and, and the trees running in the dirt.
But we know chickens and pigs and run around on my grandma's
farm, you know, on the land or acres of our land.
We grew up slaughtering our own animals with my grandmother and
my grandfather and my mom. So I grew up.
(05:02):
I grew up real, real, OK. Like, oh, you're so pretty OK.
But that's not it. I did.
So I grew up with love and my family, and I felt good to be
loved coming up. Yeah, I love.
I love my family. The reason why I'm here right
now I do anything for. How did your upbringing shape
(05:27):
just your experiences now as an adult and with your journey?
And you are a mother, of course.How did that shape your
upbringing and just how you raise your children and your
journey right now as well? So do you have such humble
beginnings? Oh well OK so my upbringing
really shaped me a lot. My father came in from Nigeria
from from bio singing Agua in the 80s.
(05:48):
Came here and met my mom in Melbourne, FL.
So I truly had the experience ofhaving an African parent and an
American parent. And what people think that so
far so different is that all Americans are different than
Africans. But I wasn't what I know.
We are the same people. My father came to this country
and met my mom and I see my auntin Nigeria.
I come back and my sisters they look my auntie look just like my
(06:11):
aunties here in America. Then they look at my aunties in
Nigeria. I'm like, ah dad, you came to
America and found your family. The so from early on me so
powerful shake my childhood a lot.
You know, I got that balance. I had to understand life on both
sides and it really allowed me to be able to see things from
(06:32):
different perspective, be able to voice my own, have my own
opinion and being able to like just honor who I am a lot sooner
than later. My child, my child, my
upbringing is is not all beautiful all the time, right?
Even though we we lived and we'll say in the hood of our
neighborhood of black in a blackcommunity, my parents owned
(06:52):
their home in that neighborhood.This is ours.
This is ours. We this OK, Yeah, OK.
We all brown over here. Fine.
Can we can. It's still this is like it's
blown to us. You know, that's what it's
about. So my childhood is continuing to
shape me to this day as a grown woman, as a mother, because I
(07:15):
want to teach my children those things to them growing up in
this world right now with these kids, you know, those elephant
not going outside, actually be of the earth of the world, the
nature, but just. I love how you say, I love how
you say your childhood still shapes you as you're moving
(07:37):
forward. You know, I think I've never
heard someone say it in that perspective, how it's still
shaping you. And I think that's really
insightful. That's I really do like that.
What are some of the challenges you may have faced with where
you are now becoming a model anda woman of color?
Were there any type of challenges you had to face?
Are there still, you know, with the beauty world, just certain
(08:01):
expectations or stereotypes or people wanting to box women of
color and certain boxes with theway we look?
Have you faced any type of challenges as a woman of color
in the modeling? World yeah I definitely would
definitely like I'm facing challenges in his mouth was like
you know as the woman as myself right.
(08:22):
I do believe that there's there's notions that oh, she has
no hair. Oh, her skin is deep, It's here.
Oh, she has an opinion. Oh, she actually thinks.
I think that's about the point when a woman that has any kind
of confidence and in the any industry modeling industry for
(08:46):
America, because I've done both.And I think that as black women,
we just face a certain level of challenges because we just so
fucking is. Nope, no, no, no, we're so
amazing. We're so that it's it's it's a
(09:06):
it's a fight like why you want to fight me forever?
I gotta tell. Why don't we challenge every I
don't even want to fight you. I just want to come be me.
Probably got to why you got to put all your angles on me so
projected. So we have so many challenges,
challenges, man, having a black woman that it's like become our
norms, right? But I don't know.
(09:29):
I don't want it to be get off ofme, you know.
So as I work through my challenges, being a mother,
being a woman is being brown, isbeing black is being Nigerian is
being I calling the Holy Spirit to you.
(09:54):
I may not have all the answers, but I know that they're there
and I, I I'll surrender to thoseanswers and I hope that we can
find them together. You really get on something how
being a confident black woman islike kryptonite for some people
to walk in a room as a woman of color and just be proud of who
(10:19):
you are. And you know, like when women of
color, you know how it is when we when we put it on, we put it
on. And I don't mean just visually
without clothes and materialistically, but just
having that inner confidence, the way that we can command a
room. It really offends people
sometimes. And I know all we use mentioned
(10:40):
corporate. Oh my God, I definitely went
through that as well-being. Like they said, you go from the
the pet to the threat. So having that confidence as a
black woman and a lot of settings, it's so awkward
sometimes because you don't wantto shrink.
But then if you just come in as your authentic self, sometimes
(11:03):
that could be looked at as well.Are they arrogant?
Are they cocky? Are who do they think they are
you just doing too much? It's just it's so such a
conflict sometimes. But I really felt what you said
about just being that woman, youknow what I'm saying, being that
girl and how it can ruffle some feathers because it's like, you
(11:24):
know, who is she? What is she doing you?
Know wanna live I just wanna live, let me live.
Right, it it brings it could bring in some good, but it can
also bring in some looks like, you know, like what a minute
like like who do you think you are?
So I really felt that. I really felt that when you said
(11:48):
that. What have been some of the good
moments? I know you've had the pleasure
to work with some brands and things like that.
And of course, we'll talk about your journey right now on
television, but what have been some of your favorite moments
and your career so far as a mile?
Some of my favorite moments, my career as a model, Oh my gosh,
(12:10):
being able to travel the world and work with brands like
WhatsApp, Nivea, Apple, Samsung,Volkswagen, and funny I am.
Have you had a book? Volkswagen AG was so like
symbolic to my journey because when I moved from Florida,
packed up my car, I bought a Volkswagen Beetle and I drove it
from Florida to California and Iwas one of the major car ads
(12:32):
that that I booked was the world's wagon.
I was like, look at this full circle.
But I think that just being ableto, I think meeting new people
in the industry has been a motto.
Working and having your own and sent schedule, that freedom to
be able to do things that you actually enjoy doing, you know,
(12:53):
is what I enjoy the most and allmy highlights, you know, and
being a model. I love to be able to.
I remember like my my girls wereyoung.
I had to bring them to shoots. Oh, when you have a shoot today,
come now, we're going on set andhaving someone look after them
for me. And that was, you know, that's
(13:14):
our lie. That's what we've been doing and
being able to do that frees up alot of my tie so I can spend it
with them. Spend it and not at, you know,
at a nine to five corporate job that I tried, right.
I have a degree, I went to school, you know, don't use it
and serve me. So being a model, that would be
(13:37):
that freedom of just to be who Iam.
I love that the freedom to be who you are.
What advice do you have? Because I feel like what you
just mentioned is being who you are and sometimes being who you
are, you have to let go of some things, do detours sometimes.
As you mentioned, you did do thecorporate nine to five thing and
(14:00):
it wasn't for you. You went to college, it wasn't
for you to do the nine to five thing.
And you are being who you want to be as a model.
And I feel so many people, womenin particular, are in a struggle
right now because they want to walk in a purpose, choose the
truth and walk in their life. But sometimes you may not have
(14:21):
that same, you know, level of confidence or that big imposter
syndrome that some people deal with where they think they can't
do it. What advice do you have for some
people that you know, they want it, they want to do it, they
want to follow that dream, but this just that little imposter
syndrome in their back of their head tone and they can't do it.
(14:43):
What advice do you have? Tell somebody like, hey, like
you really can go for it. You can't achieve that goal.
You can walk away from some things.
What advice that you have for that woman?
(15:03):
You know who you are, Queen. You do because the thoughts that
you have that you can do it or not even they they're there
because they belong there. You know who you are.
You know what you want to do. Don't say what and when you have
(15:26):
any inclination of doubts. Oh, you are.
Remember who you are and it's ina time is hard and when you
think that you can achieve it onyour own, that's never really on
our own. I say that you pray you can sit
(15:50):
with yourself in silence. It's OK.
Some people only my phone. No, no, it's OK.
Put them away for a little while, but sit with yourself.
Remind yourself who you are. It's hard sometimes it is.
But if you just just try it. Don't stop.
Don't give up. Don't say oh, I'm oh, I'm 38, I
(16:13):
can't do it. Oh, I have a daughter, I can't
do it. Oh, I grew up in a hood.
Oh, I can't do it. Oh, my skin's too rich.
I can't do it. Oh, my hair is it's so see, you
know, So I can't do it. No, those are the actually
reaping while you can. OK?
Those are really the reasons whyyou can't.
(16:35):
OK. I don't know.
If I didn't have my daughters, well, be I could.
I know so many people who don't have children and who's sleeping
on themselves. I thought somebody I don't know,
I'm fighting for like you're saying, like I have somebody I
(16:55):
that I must achieve for you still sleeping on yourself.
Why wake up? My children hasn't allowed me to
propel me because I can see a visual day.
OK, This is what I'm doing. It's this is this is the goal.
This is why I'm doing so. A lot of people try to condemn
you for those things. People like when you try to
condemn yourself for those things.
(17:16):
I'm a mom. I'm a woman.
All those things are the reasonswhy exactly why you can do it.
OK, So, Queen, hear me out. Those are a reason why you
can't. OK?
Why you can't? OK.
What they talking about? Oh, you girl.
(17:38):
You got you. Oh, Lord see, I'll tell him.
Sorry, but no one's making me Soyou got me going.
You got my, you got me running everywhere now, see?
No, I love it. I love how you said those are
the reasons why you can Oh my God.
And that's the thing, some the things that people think I just
(17:59):
like he's I love how you mentioned rich skin tone, 4C
hair. These are the things that make
us who we are. And there, you know, there's
certain people in this world that try to make that a bad
thing. But no, these are your gifts.
That's the things that you need to own up to.
As you said, that's the thing that is those are the reasons
(18:23):
why you should be on a stage or why you should be that person or
why you should be walking into those rooms and owning it.
And also being a single mother, being 3848, I don't care.
Like you can still go for it. You can still be unstoppable.
So those were some words and affirmations.
(18:44):
Now, I know you mentioned your children and being a mother.
And I also wanted to talk to youbecause just with your
information and your research about you, I know that you
experienced a personal loss. So I just want to ask you how,
and you're shining girl, just inthis conversation, how have you
(19:05):
been able to navigate you're going through a loss, still
being a mother. Now that you, your partner, you
lost your partner, you're being a mother.
How are you able to navigate that and still shine and just
still be your, your energy is just beautiful.
How you how have you been able to navigate through all those
(19:28):
things to just still be who you are and to give to your
children? OK, navigating losing my best
friend, baby Tay. My friend.
(19:48):
My round could be from Florida. So you know, what's that round?
You know, man navigating losing Troy because his name was Troy.
He should we we must say his name.
It was a friend. It was Oh my God that's
(20:14):
something I really realized. Losing him when we were 20/22/22
years old. My best friend being pregnant
with Trinity when I got the newsthat toy was killed.
(20:39):
Sitting with that or even going through life with with this, I
don't it's a it's a day and day and day in.
I miss joy so much because he was so excited about his
daughter, right? We were young.
(21:00):
We were in love, or you know, myfirst love, this man I was going
to marry, spend the rest of my life together.
You know, we have plans. We had plans.
He was going to be off golf to be a professional boxer.
He had just turned pro. He had his first battle on HBO
and he was set off to do great things.
He was a man. He was kind.
He had a beautiful smile. He was one of the men in the
(21:25):
community that you know, she didn't know He wanted to know
him because his smile was just like, wow, wow.
I want to actually want to know you.
So losing the men are so kind and and and it's so kind to me.
Was this a great loss friend? He didn't leave me with a
(21:49):
message and and I did you so very emotional.
I was crying. I told me to always tell this,
to tell the story that I want tofind shrimp today because I
really want to let the Queens know that if you receive a
message, a divine message, I need you to move on.
(22:12):
OK? Two weeks before Troy was killed
untimely, he came to me out of nowhere, he says.
Tara, I want you to name our daughter Face.
Sure. I know we had no idea we were
having a girl, but so soon aboutI was born and we was going to
find out the week after his passing.
(22:33):
So he didn't know he's having a daughter just there.
I didn't know he knew because anyhow he said name his daughter
Faith. And when he said it, it was so
weird. It was so strange.
I'm like this is faith what we got.
We just, we are here watching movies and going to Halloween
(22:53):
Horror Nights, like Faith, like we're kids, right?
You know? But the message to stay, and I
take that with me and the divinemessage from the Holy Spirit, I
take that with me. And a lot of things that I've
(23:14):
done, I just hopped about it andI got to do it.
I got to step out of the face, OK, me and my daughter that
we're having a perfect life and time.
Women don't bring up homelessness.
No car, no place to stay. Being in a situation that we all
need to be in. It's not been a beautiful thing
for me, but in all those situations I know there I had to
have faith. Hey Queen, if you're loving this

(24:00):
Now let's get back to this episode.
Right, and it's gotten me I'm sorry for this long and I'm I
just long, I'm sorry. I just that message for you,
when you hear it, take it, respect it, honor it, Listen,
listen to you know what I mean? So Trinity, faith is here.
(24:22):
And man, if I, if I didn't have my, my daughters don't know
where I'd be. Let me say that.
Yeah. Yeah.
A lobby about faith. That's something else.
Just just hearing that love thatyou had and be being able to
(24:48):
just have the love of your life and experience that beautiful
love. It's, it's still a beautiful
thing. And just hearing you speak of
him, just you can hear the love from what you're saying.
It's just, it's, it does feel like a spiritual connection for
sure. It just seems very beautiful.
(25:10):
So I know of course right now you are on the King's court and
you know on a show that it is about opening your heart up.
You know that I know the 1st 2 episodes are out right now and
everyone on this, the program and of course this season is
(25:31):
different because they have it for the kings, the previous ones
or the Queens. But I just find it so
interesting because everyone haslike the same they want.
They just want luck. Not even necessarily.
You don't have to walk out of itwith marriage, but it's natural
for people to want to have a human connection.
(25:51):
Love. How was it Before we go into
some details with the show, how did you get to a point where you
wanted to explore, you know, find in love again?
You look beautiful. OK.
Oh God, you got me. Let me hold on things.
I'm already sweaty and crying and I was I was crying.
(26:11):
I was sweating. OK, it's too much.
Thank you. Thank you.
Not going to not running on my face like like the whole lot,
the whole word of you. I have more active default.
Oh man. So yeah.
OK, so how would open my heart up to find want to find love
(26:32):
again? Oh.
So for a long time, I did believe that I was posed out for
love. I was in love with a dead man
for for a long time. I'm gonna be honest.
I tell the world, look, I'm sorry.
I can't love you. I'm in love with somebody who's
not even walking this earth anymore.
Yeah. I got a sport through that.
I am. I'm working on it.
OK. But you just not given the same
kind of you just tell energies. It's not of, of of this person's
(26:56):
caliber. And I just I'm still looking to
find someone who's kind. Yeah, kind.
Yeah, because someone's forcing them to be.
But it's a virtue. Kindness, you know, glides up a
room, you know, a man who's who's a purpose, a value of, of,
(27:16):
you know, a family fortitude, discipline, you know.
So I because I'm navigating, looking for those
characteristics from somebody who I know genuinely loved me
early on in life. It's it's it's like, oh, oh,
that's how you act. Oh, no.
(27:36):
Oh, but you don't get out of here.
Oh, yeah, go now go. You better go away like Lee.
Why are you here with that foolishness around me?
I'm not. I don't even, I don't want to do
that. So my heart's been closed off
because of, I guess nothing. I guess because we're at I
believe I would like to speak tosee these things in a man and I
(27:57):
want to make sure that I'm also displaying these things too,
right. So we both got to like some of
the same things and some of the values should be aligned and
that that man is out there. She wanted to I know he out
there. I know he is.
He looked at me. I look for him.
We looking for each other. He told her, he told her to him
(28:18):
each experience and and I am, I'm more so ready than ever to
be able to because I've been doing the work.
So now I'm more so ready than ever to meet who is being
prepared for me, who's looking for me, who's also looking for
me. I'm not just looking for him
because I am not indeed looking to be with anything or anybody.
(28:42):
I'm looking to be with somethingvery specific, something that
I've selected and chose something else so specific and
chose to me. So we know what we're doing.
So a lot of men and you know, aswe grow up, we're now getting to
my late 30s. I think more now people are
understanding and realizing I think up for all of us, we have
(29:04):
to go through these experiences,right?
So now, OK, we don't. You're going through yours,
don't go through mine, OK. We learn our lessons yet or
we're ready to come together now, you know, but we've been
we've been away far along to enough right.
(29:28):
We still need to have more children like we still have the
you know, travel alike all the countries in the world like we
got something got to be doing what you stop playing with our
tag like this. What are you doing?
We could have had generations bynow.
Kings and Queens play with me anyway.
Sure, I'm done. I'm ready.
Because I have had twins, you know, I got to have twins, you
(29:49):
know, I'll be 40 very soon. Not yet, but still soon.
I'm 38 now. I'm going to be 40 soon, right,
Mom? She had 10 kids up into her 40s,
right? It's awesome, right?
I think I got some good DNA in there I can sort through.
Get me an egg, you know, someplace.
Just got to find the right man to fertilize this egg.
(30:10):
This time we ate. But you know what, I love what
you just said when you said so confidently, he is there, he's
looking for me. I love that.
And I know like we live in the whole independent woman, strong
woman, you know, I get it. But there is nothing wrong with
(30:32):
wanting a partner with one in love and just not being negative
to about the beauty of having a relationship.
You said it so beautifully and confidently that he's looking
for you, you manifesting it and affirming it.
And I just think that is such a great thing just to have that
(30:52):
sense of he's there because alsowith singleness, right?
Sometimes singleness is made to be like such a terrible period.
You know, woe is me loneliness, but just like he's looking for
me. You also said you were doing the
work, which is a beautiful thingagain, because I think that we
can use singleness too and I favor and I have vanished like
(31:15):
in the meantime, just like Iyamasaid in the meantime, here are
things that we could be doing inthe meantime for when that king
arrives because hell, the Bible even says he that finds a wife
finds a good thing. So he is looking.
So I love that just to be ready for when he I'm.
So I love it. I love it, I love it.
(31:36):
So tell us about the King's Court.
What made you decide, hey, let me try this out.
As I said, this new season, they're doing it a little
different. They flipped it.
So they have the kings, you know, they're the ones searching
for the Queens and they're bringing in different women to
get to know them and ask Tyson Beckford on there of course as
well. So just tell me, what made you
(31:57):
decide to say, hey, I'm going todo this on the big screen and
search for love on the King's Court?
Oh, OK. So when I decided to be a part
of the King sport, I was really,I was at a really different
(32:18):
place in my life. And I would say very.
I was living in Atlanta, GA during the time I left LA and
went to try Atlanta and it was avery challenging time for me
living there. Probably the most I probably
have been cried the most ever inmy life in long time since I
(32:40):
cried. I live in Atlanta so during the
time I was seeing someone or dealing with someone who wasn't
the one, wasn't mine, wasn't my man.
I was in a situation of shit or something and I was like what is
this? Why am I even like get here and
(33:05):
I I'm usually, you know, no, no,you guys don't come over here,
but let's this one get through the guards.
You know how you let one slip in, come out like you let him.
You let him in and you know you shouldn't.
You know from the beginning, because you honor ourselves,
right? We know we shouldn't.
We we let let him in. I did.
Come on, come on in. Took real good care of him.
Yes, I did. And vice versa, actually.
(33:30):
Wasn't my man. He was someone else's.
OK, a real strict. I won't show nobody else, man.
I'll see Violet. I'll let that one come in.
And that's why that's strict policy anyhow.
But that allowing that and to see what comes along with that.
The heart, the pain, not feelinglike you're good enough.
(33:54):
The crying, the wonder. Well, why you can't.
Why? But why?
But I don't have my own money, you know?
Oh, you like me? Oh, you.
OK, Well, don't put yourself there.
(34:14):
But sometimes you have to go through those things to be able
to learn. This is how down teams court,
right? I, I only wanted to look for
love because I felt so low and Iwanted, I started to think when
things start happening, feelingsI was feeling not good enough,
not love, not seeing, not not worthy.
I began to say that, no, I want to feel the opposite of these
(34:36):
things. These are I don't want to, you
know, I want to feel. How could I feel the opposite of
these things? I want to be about love and I
want to be in love for someone who loves me.
These are I don't want that. I want the opposite of that.
So I stopped putting that out there and I submitted and the
producers got back to me. They were like interviewing me
and like, oh, you're great. I'm like, so when I submitted, I
(34:57):
didn't really think I was going to get paid to be on the show.
You know, I was like, I just I need love.
I mean, I'm on my bear scrollinglike this.
I like what's with me? I know beating myself up right,
scrolling right, and that's all this come up.
Hey, you know, clean, you know, king queen looking for love
(35:17):
Queen looks like queen looking for love.
You know, are you tired? Are you are you going through
the motions? Are you tired of not having your
own? All the things I was going
through Are you sounds like me just a minute.
Anyway, Long story short, I got on the show they they they
selected me and experience has changed my life.
(35:46):
It's really, it's really, it's changed my life.
And because, again, I was able to go through things that I
wouldn't have never went throughhad I not gone through the
experience of being on King's Court, Figure out other women in
the house, being with three different men, having them in
(36:08):
the same house view. And like, you know, to have
cameras recording you for 24 hours of the day.
It's a lot to unpack, but chillyinsecure is one of the is is the
main reason I want to look for love.
I was in a low, low, low place all around, man.
(36:36):
Yeah. That's something else that and
like I said, you're a beautiful woman and just to hear you say
be transparent and raw and say, well, you were in an insecure
period. And just again, you're very
transparent about the situation you were in.
It happens to the best of us. And it's so easy to be in, you
(37:00):
know, a bad situation when it comes to finding love and just
beating yourself up afterwards thinking question your worth,
question your value. So I appreciate how you were so
transparent with that because a lot of women have found
themselves in situations like you said, where it's just not
quite right. You may know it deep down like,
(37:21):
okay, girl, you know this, this man ain't it right?
That loneliness starts to kick in and we start doing some
things that we would never want to admit to people.
So I, I totally, I understand for sure.
And I just appreciate you with the transparency of staying
like, hey, I was in a vulnerable, insecure spot
because it's so hard sometimes Ithink to admit that sometimes.
(37:44):
But again, it happens to the best of us.
And it sometimes doesn't even matter how beautiful you are on
the outside. It's the inside of just still
being that person that is vulnerable who wants love, who
may be look at like the song says, looking for love and love
in all the wrong places. People been there.
(38:06):
So I definitely appreciate your transparency.
Now I do have a question from when our audience members that
submitted before this episode that they post.
So I'm going to read it right now.
And this is from Vishnu, better known as China, the screenwriter
out of Atlanta. So her question here.
So her question for you is, during your time on the show,
(38:28):
did you feel that the men were truly looking for a queen?
Were they genuinely interested in getting to know all of the
women? I do believe that there are men
on the show who were genuinely interested in getting to know
and meeting Queens. I do believe that were all of
(38:50):
them there for those reasons. I think definitely watch the
show and see if you can decipherwhich ones who wasn't.
But I do believe that there was men there who who were there on
that pursuit. I don't want to I can't give it
(39:11):
away. 8 down. OK, don't don't don't let me
give, don't let me give it away.OK, I definitely watch and
TuneIn, but I do believe that it's very difficult way to know
people very fast in this kind ofsetting genuinely.
But you can get a gauge of energy as soon as you you know.
So once you gauge your energy, you know, I think that you'll be
(39:32):
able to decide if this person isreally is for you or look so
like if they don't mean nothing,what's this?
What's this looks OK, You know, people can look real good all
day. Be careful, OK?
Don't let that fool you, OK? Or recognize the energy real,
recognize real, I will say. Yeah, for sure, definitely.
(39:57):
How was the experience? How was the experience with the
women? I know like, just because it's
only two episodes are out currently.
I know you come in on episode #4and just episodes I've seen so
far. Like I know the one I just
watched, it was the second one where they brought in, you know,
new sets of women. So I know like.
(40:17):
I don't know what to call it. Is it like, you know, I don't
want to say you guys are necessarily competing, but I
guess technically in a sense, how was the feeling with the
women? Is there any type of camaraderie
that happens because you know, like you all out there was it's
a good amount of women, but the ratio, you know, three men to
all the women. So how was that experience with
(40:38):
the other women on the show? Yeah, shout out to the Queens.
All the Queens are the on keys court.
I see you. Are they getting you now?
Shout out to just getting them to know you and experience you.
Those women who we build connections with long life
friendships with. I I I see you and I'm happy that
we were able to connect to my Queens.
(41:03):
Yeah, living in the house with women, right?
I got sisters growing up. I got two daughters, right?
It's girls. So you know how girls we don't,
we don't be Girling, OK? Girls don't act like girls, OK,
a Queens all the time. So there were times where it was
like, well, I don't really agreewith what you're saying.
I don't know. Tell me I've got a problem with
(41:26):
you. We don't have to have a, you
know, issue one of the back on agreeing with the truck
respected. Some people may not know how to,
you know, handle those kind of conversations because we don't
agree with somebody. Then they think that you're
attacking them and it's not a tax.
I don't agree, but that comes with emotional intelligence,
(41:46):
right? So there's being in a house with
20 plus other women. We have of course, we have
different personalities and perspectives, but also we have
some commonalities, right? So it's going to be the AI girl.
I'm going to tell you what it is, but I still love you.
I want to I'm with you like actually, I'm still, I'm still
(42:08):
cool with you. Like, you know, you might be mad
at me, I don't know. But if you want to talk to me
about it, you know what I mean? Because I want to talk to you
about it. You know what I mean?
Because we're all different people.
It's OK. Anyway, I made some brands and I
made some some people who may not want to be my friend.
(42:29):
That's right. That's OK.
Out of 21 people thinking, OK, that's good to hear that.
But that's good to hear that youstill made friends because I
just think that, you know, you put a group of women together.
There's so many things that you could think may happen, but it's
a plus that number one, you saidyou see all the Queens, you
shouted them out and you did make friends.
(42:51):
So that's always A+ too, that you, because you are there with
things in common, you are women who are looking for love.
So obviously that's one thing that you all share.
And I just feel like with the shell too, it shows a lot of
vulnerabilities with people because it's so hard sometimes
to just admit like what you really are looking for and just
(43:14):
being just putting it all out there too.
It takes a brave person to come on something like that to just
put it out there too. So, you know, I definitely
commend people that have been onthis platform in the past, you
know, shows and the current one right now, of course, because
just putting yourself out there and as you said, it's different
(43:35):
because you're not only putting yourself out there, but there's
cameras, there's viewers. So, you know, it's a little
different. So I definitely can commend you
guys with that. So I do want to ask you with
this platform with Go Queen and the key chat, the conversation
for Queens, the common thread and theme of our platform is
self love. Self love is the field to just
(43:58):
have that confidence to just show up to just say, hey, I am
valuable, I'm worthy, I can findlove.
I can throw myself out there in the ring again after a
tremendous loss. I can still be confident that
he's looking for me and I'm looking for him.
Self love is just a fuel to justpursue all of that and just all
(44:20):
the other things that you've accomplished being a model and
just being that light and telling people, hey, you still
that girl. So I want to ask you how do you
define self love and what role has self love played in your
life? Self love I define, I mean, I
(44:51):
divine self love as as black love as I love myself because I
love those who look like me a lot more and a lot more and a
lot more. I don't know, I just feel like
it's a it's what is that ricochet A boomerang like, you
know, it just comes back. It comes back just growing up in
(45:16):
America. Your knowledge is, you know,
it's hard to see. You just think that you should
love yourself. You shouldn't love anything
brown like you should just defensive, you know, because I'm
if I love my sisters, my brothers, I return love me, Jean
and I can extend that love to everyone because it is the is
(45:39):
the love is an agape love, you know, but it starts at home.
So you know, we we live togetherlike you, my home, like me
sister, you know, we like that we brothers.
So it starts there and it helps me every day because I have to
remind my mother every day if I love me and if we don't love
(46:04):
each other, who else will? We know, we know nobody and go
love what's how we need to love us.
You know, show us that over and over again, over and over again
and again. So me love us.
It's so small. It's like you love me so.
Samira, I like beers. I like to look at your
(46:28):
reflection of me. I see myself in you.
I love you. Wow.
Man, that is so insightful. I love that.
I love it, I love it, I love it.Oh my gosh.
And you're right, just self loveis it's love.
It's the love we can give to others as well.
(46:49):
We love, we love the way we loveourselves.
So that's another thing that's so important, expressing this
journey to find love and to findthat king and to connect, just
having that self love and being able to not only love ourselves,
but to love someone else. Again, how can we love anybody
else if we don't love ourselves?So you're right, it definitely
(47:12):
is a boomerang. So before we end everything,
this is about a beautiful conversation.
Like I said, you're gorgeous. You have this great energy, and
I know you're going to find thatking if you haven't found them
already. I'll definitely make sure to
tune in to the rest of the episodes, but I wanted to ask
you, can you leave an affirmation for the Queens that
(47:34):
are going to tune in? And it could be an affirmation
on anything, just to encourage the queen that's listening that
connected with you in this beautiful interview.
But do you have an affirmation you'd like to leave us with?
I am loved, right? I want you to repeat that I'm
love. I write from love #4 not seeing.
(47:55):
I love, I am not seeing. Will you operate from love?
It's it's going to happen. What's gonna happen as the fear
is holding us back. So I'm love.
This is very simple. Easy.
Look, look. I don't want to know
Affirmation. I'll make it very simple.
I am love. Don't try to.
Oh, this long. No.
Simple, easy. I am love.
(48:17):
We like, no, we should say, Lauren, Hill said.
It can all be so simple. I'd say no.
We just rather. I don't know why.
We'd rather make it hard. We really don't have to.
I'm love. OK, bye.
So I go. That's it.
I'm loving it, I love it, I loveit.
That's the beautiful thing. I am love.
And if we when we are loved, we can love someone else and we can
(48:40):
also open the door to receive that love as well.
Thank you so much. This is again been a beautiful
conversation and I cannot wait to catch when you hop on the
scene on this show. I know you're going to bring
some energy on there. So I cannot wait to tune in when
you join the show as well, just to see how this is going to go
(49:02):
as well. So I'm definitely letting the
suspense, but it's AI do love how they switched it over to the
kings this time. So this is going to be very
interesting and I'm rooting for you, girl.
Like, I haven't, you know, like I said, you haven't, the
episodes haven't aired yet with you, Honor, but I can't wait to
see you. What happened?
This Sunday. Something I can't wait.
So thank you again just for sharing your story, your journey
(49:27):
and for throwing this positive energy.
I love it and just given that Queens are going to tune in that
confidence, especially the single Queens that he's looking
for you. So don't give up.
And it's also never too late to pursue anything you want in
life. So I do love it.
So again, this is Terry allegedly and two and to Bravo's
Kings Court, it's Aaron on Peacock on Mondays and it's also
(49:50):

Ruf Atari again, this has been abeautiful conversation.

how they can learn more about you?
So give everybody all your socials and where they can reach
out to you. Hey, so you guys can find me all
everything by my first and last name Tari Alegalay.

and follow Tyree and go ahead and go get one of those fans.
Those are beautiful. I love it so much and Tyree has
(50:56):
broken down so many beautiful things in this conversation.
Just bringing her energy and herlight and just showing that hey,
you are able to my love and to be loved and to receive love and
to give love. It's all a reciprocal boomerang
as she mentioned. So we don't have to feel that.
(51:18):
And it's OK to be a strong woman.
I get it. But we also can be vulnerable
and admit that we want love, butalso realize that we're capable
of receiving it. It's OK to do the work and it's
OK to be vulnerable, but just always remember to have that
self love and to realize that you're worth and you're
valuable. Even as you're walking into your
singleness. You can still be valuable while
(51:39):
you're single, but be open. Be open.
Not everyone is bad. There are people out there that
are willing to love you and to connect with you and change your
life and just do so many different things to just bring
value and purpose into your life.
So just have that open heart. You should discern it, but be
open because love is waiting foryou.
(52:00):
So thank you again, this is Tyree Allegolade.
This has been a beautiful conversation and just remember
you can you can catch more episodes like this and more

your heart open to love, and go love yourself.
