Let's let's go back to the very first episode. Okay,
in a fight, got gotta take atta take here, gotta
take brother here. Let's more, I gotta take bro, you know,
drag out physical fight with the President of the United States.
(02:56):
Let's hold that thought. Hold that thought. Then let's go
back to you getting the script, okay from Tyler Perry,
who all knows a genius. Let's go and admit that publicly.
If you don't know what I'm telling you, he's a genius.
What were your thoughts, you know, President, you know Michelle
Obama coming out of the White House and you're playing
this over exaggerated character of an African American female entering
(03:21):
the White House in a dramatic series. What were your
thoughts When I first got the side for the audition,
I was horrified because I thought to myself, how could
I possibly I'm an actress that I'm just like I
don't know how I can pull this off. This character
(03:41):
is so opposite my personality. I'm just like, wow, what
what do I have or what can I pull from
to bring this character to life? Um? And so I
thought of the challenge and uh, in that first thing,
know how the audience would really stunned. But it was
(04:03):
shocked value. I mean, that's the first scene of the
series first and what like a what like a casual
slap slap? No, no, no, this was a knockdown, drag
drag out beat down like entire hotel room. And um yeah,
(04:23):
I was. I was afraid going into it, but once
we started rolling, oh my gosh, we had so much fun. Okay,
now now now you say this is this character is
not like your personality? What is your personality? It's more honestly, I, um,
I've always been py um. So I think I've come
out of my sinus a little bit. Book, but I'm
(04:43):
kind of an introvert. Um. I will say that the
character is strong, and I think I have a strong
I have strong views that I have a strong personality,
but I am not Yes, but I'm not I'm not
overt like she, So I'm not overt and coming over selfish, Uh,
(05:04):
domineering Uh. Sexist, uh, child abuser? Uh liar h going
to growing a dressing shop and beat the heck out
of your husband's mistress. Uh it tastes your daughter. H.
Come on now, it's a lot of qualities issue. Yeah. Yeah,
(05:24):
you know I realized people and you know they're just
like you did that. Um, Victor did that. Karen didn't
do that? Come Caen. Now here's the funny thing about
it is that we're gonna have a good time with
We're already have a good time. I'm talking to one
of the stars of the Oval. She plays uh the
first league. Firstly, Lady Victoria's the name correct the word ladying.
(05:50):
Her husband's name is Hunter. Now, as a story, as
a serious evolved, you know, you're starting to get a
little bit the pieces about the background of your family
and how he got there. But let's go to the
beginning of the series here, because first of all, you
want to say, Rashan, how successful this has has the
reaction to this series been? Okay? First of all, it's
(06:11):
been renewed for a second season, which we all know,
and the acting game is a blessing. Come on that
because you started like preparing life a little bit okay,
you know, because people don't the day and you're in
the acting game. It's like it's almost like check to check.
You can't you can't buy a car, you might not
(06:32):
make the notes because you don't know if you're gonna
get a job. It's really came by how it really starts.
You really have to be a person that's really patient
and also and just really just have strong faith and
also have a good good people around you that a
support system. Now, the original series has been a hit
for b ET. We're talking about the oval some highlights.
(06:53):
Is now in the first half of this debate season
number one new scripted series on cable for all audiences
eighteen to forty nine, Number one in both broadcast and
cable for African Americans eighteen to forty nine, which is
an incredible number cribal cover number. Now, you know, when
(07:15):
the series came out, I don't know. I wasn't watching
it in the beginning. So I had the band watch
because peoples, because they always know I like watch. I
watch a lot. That would tell me how do you
manage to watch some of TV and read some of
the books When I get a good series like this though,
that's that every every episode is like really really, So
(07:36):
I'm a back off a little bit here, tell us
about you just let's let's tell about, tell about tell
everybody about the family dynamics of the Oval Office. If
you miss anything, I'm I'm a feeling okay, okay, okay, okay. Well,
the Oval overall is it's people like to compare it
to just initially they like to compare it to scandal,
but it is that. It isn't oh no, it's not political.
(07:58):
Oh no, it's not not at all, know about. It's
all about relationships and the drama within. So it addresses
the upstairs, downstairs thing that goes down in the White
House where you have the first family, and we pulled
back the curtain on this family who's been placed in
(08:18):
the White House by the powers that be, and all
of their dysfunction is completely uncovered. And then we found
in the White House staff home, and they have a
whole other set of drama while dealing with the drama
in the White House, which is a lot to handle
for anybody at work, and then they go home and
deal with their own personal things. So there's drama on
(08:40):
both sides of it. Now, she left that so much
good stuff. Okay, the daughter, the daughter who was sleeping
with the drug dealer, right, and then your boy good
Please describe everybody. What is what? What is your son Jason?
What is his character? Is? He could keep hopping? He's
(09:01):
a pervert in the series? What what? What? What is it?
I've heard that word thrown out a lot in the series.
He's a pervert. He's a perfect What exactly is Jason's
character in the Oval? Okay, Jason who has played by
Daniel Korey Henderson, and he's like a wonderful actor. He's
nothing like this, by the way, he is nike ndt
(09:23):
of the time in the series. By the way, y'all
just let y'all know about that. He's all the way naked.
He's naked and most and he's disturbed. But here's this
thing about the kids, Um, people don't understand. They hate you,
they hate they hate me, and they kind of hate
Hunter too. Because what we've done is we brought them
(09:46):
through the Mayor's office. Is up in his office and
now the White House. So if these children have been
brought up in a bubble and have had their lives,
you know, under a microscope, and so protected from a
normal life that they sucked out in ways there's probably
other other children wouldn't, but they asked out. Um, they
(10:06):
act all the way out all the way so they're
they're just the Yeah, they're the third in. Jason is him.
He's got a lot of he's got a lot of
issues that will be uncovered as the season goes. Um,
I don't want to get too much away. There were
there were ms Moore. What we're gonna talk about, we'll
cover enough to make you want to watch the rest
(10:28):
of the season. Like I just tell your number one.
Note you number one for a reason now eighteen fortnight,
because you got your boy, your boy and seen at all.
Now see this is see the great thing about the
lady Victoria character, which is the first lady, and then
Hunter he's the president. Then Jason and Sophia. There's there
are their kids, outrageous kids. Then like she said, it's
(10:49):
more even juicier storylines when you get to pol Nancy,
Richard and Crazy Berry. Crazy Berry does he have emotional
Berry is the son of Nancy and Richard, and he
came by the White House one day to help out,
and all hell broke loose because he got in the
room with Sophia, and Sophia says something later on Gail Gail, Yeah,
(11:14):
it was Gail, like pabl Gail and Jason correct so
many series. In my head, Gail and Jason are the characters.
They are your children. So Gail got in the room
with Barry, and then she made the story by Barry,
and then he just calls j Richard to lose his job,
and but the storyline didn't stop after that. These story
lines are just so so outrageously juicy that they make
(11:37):
you want to see more. Correct they are they are,
and they're so so twisted and intertwined. It's it's really
interesting to see them unsold and see how the White
House staff and their families um are a part of
the actual family of the White the first family. It's
really interesting to see how they're connected and in ways
(11:59):
that you wouldn't think they would be. But yeah, my
daughter Gail, yes, she had a relationship. Her boyfriend was
a drug dealer, is the cousin of Barry, who was
the son of our butler, who was fired because Gail
accused him of rape when he was like you said,
helping out and then you had then you then you
(12:21):
had to chage your doughter. Id Lady Victoria had went
as far as she can go, but she tasted the
doughter to see if it worked. That's what That's what
I loved about. You tage your daughter to see if
it could work. And then but it's your story now,
if you got some extra juice at what you left out?
(12:43):
What you left out is before all before Victoria tastes Gale.
Gail jumped from the moving car on the way to
the white and when he got to the White House, Yeah,
I didn't necessary that. Oh my good. You know we
were about to break here and we haven't gotten to yet.
(13:06):
Two d C Star girl, I want to get to that.
It's a couple of more questions. I got to ask
you the next break because it's just can I say congratulations?
You want an amazingly entertaining, juicy soap operative soap opera
formad that, uh, it's funny, it's sexy, is over the top.
(13:27):
And your character, like I said, you know, when you
made a pass at poor Sam, he didn't know what
to do. That's about the third guy in this series.
You made a really strong pass app the little white
guy turned you down. Earlier in the season, you're just
a but but then but then you always make it
like you were really talking to them, just kind of talking.

E R dot ai. Oh, well, on, thank you for
coming back. This is money Making Conversation. I'm the host
with Sean McDonald. We're talking to one of the stars
of The Oval, and she also was one of the
stars of DC's new series, Uh, the c WS new
series d C The Star Girl. But I want to
wrap up a few more questions about The Oval. Uh
uh Salmon Priscilla character. You know Sam who works security
(16:28):
at the d C H at the White House, and
you made a pass in him. Oh that that they
seem to be the most stable characters on the show,
unless unless I missed something. I usually called every episode.
But Sam and Priscilla seemed to be the most stable
characters on the show. I thought Nancy and Richard was,
but they both of them crazy too. But what about
(16:49):
Sam and Priscilla, Sam, and I would interest to say
that they do have the most stable relationship so far.
They have the most stareful relationship thus far, you know,
but there is a whole mess and she has a
(17:09):
way of working her way into people's lives and causing
causing trouble yes, Okay, Now let'sten. Here's an interesting backstory
because I finally met your grandmother, okay, and it seems
to me that your family, your family in particular, okay,
sent your way. You know, they got money, okay, and
(17:30):
they got influence. And so, like Hunter said, you know,
they shocked me when I became mayor. Then they shocked
me when I became governor. And now I am the
President of the United States. And I don't I didn't
ask for any of this, And so what what what?
What was your role in all of this? Your characters role?
Were you along for the ride or you just afraid
to make a uh say no because of who your
(17:53):
parents were? You know, a little bit of both. Because
Victoria is about the business of money, right. But she
had she had a sumultuous childhood where her her family.
She felt as though her family didn't love her. She
was a blessing of the family and there is pun
intended there. Um. And her her parents are they're they're powerful,
(18:15):
They're one of the top five families in the country.
They run the country. So they sent her away when
she was a child, and um, she's always felt like
she was under their control. But she never felt their acceptance.
So in trying to trying to be accepted by her family,
she's left herself onto this man who they found to
be um kind of like a catalyst, you know, to
(18:39):
to to place their influence into the White House and
and and its pologies and procedures, and so Victoria is
along like that ride, but she's really trying to get
off the roller coaster, you know, honestly, she she she's
done everything that she can and now it's she wants
his money and she wants out. But then you have
(19:01):
then you have Donald's character and Coyle's character their lovers. Okay,
but it seems to me now they've been with you
guys a long time because the storylines seem to talk
about they know about the family, your family, and they
know what they can do. So give me a little
backstory on them, if you can. Just being nosy now
and just being nosy, well, their story is currently unfolding.
(19:25):
So um yeah, So so Donald, I don't know unfolding.
It could be the man was naked in his bed,
buck naked in his and then I got to see
got to see the brother got to see his butt
in the hotel room. Okay, when when Lily showed up
and told the girl, that told the girl to get
the heck out. Okay, so so, but but I digress,
(19:49):
I digress, Lady Victoria, please continue. So that Staff and
he has been a White House nainstate, but he's relatively
new too um Hunter's life. But what Hunter doesn't know
is that Donald is somehow connected to one of these
(20:11):
five families. I can't say whether it's you know, our
family or not, that he's connected to one of these
thy family who's puppeteering, you know, the people in the
White House. And so he's got to stay in line.
That's why he needs to stain Mary to Lily for
the optics of it. But he has Kyle as his
love right right that that that that there was previous lovers.
(20:31):
Then the Kyle cheated on him, okay, then they broke up.
And then when he broke up, that's when she found
found Lily from watch She's from watch the Community or know.
She said, boy, you do watch this series, don't you?
And and so, but I gotta go back to the
biggest food in the show. I got to go back
to before we move on Barry, Oh god, Okay, before
(20:58):
I go to Barry. I just compliment Tyler Perry on
this sets in this series. I have not been to
his campound. I'm based in Atlanta, but the sets you're
based here, Yes, the sets are amazing. The sets are amazing. Listen.
What he did was he built a white House almost
to scale on his campus. It only took a couple
(21:20):
of months to do. We watched it be erected as
we were preparing for the show, and it is amazing.
As an understatement, whenever everything calms down and we're going
to get back to normal, I encourage you to come
to the campus and tour it. It is phenomenal. I'm looking.
You know, I've been fortunate. Guy. I was in the
(21:42):
OVERLA offers. I met President Obama, So I know walking
down that hallway, I know, going in that room, I
know exactly you know how this stuff lays out. I went,
they gave me a complete tour of the White House.
So when I'm going, when you guys are going room
in the room and going, that's authentic. That's authentic, that's legitimate,
because you know it's like, is you going something you
know you're only gonna adventure into once in your lifetime?
(22:03):
You kind of like making snapshots so you can remember
the experience. They won't let you take photos. They won't
let you take photos, and so the photos they take
of you, as a professional photo photographer didn't have to
screen the photos, and they eventually was sending the photos
to you are the ones they took of you, taking
taking of you while you were at the White House.
But when I when I look at Barry's character, another
(22:25):
over the top character, that's funny and uh that that
that that can you explain to me? How can we
say stupider or dumber or how many bad decisions can
you make in one season? Let's just say poor decisions?
But he was he started off at this advantage because
(22:46):
this poor child was a huge over rape. Okay, and
he didn't do it. But then you know he used
to be involved with this, uh this woman who's going
to call her and they had a child together, comes
in with her cult members and kidnaps his kid. And
so he's looking for his kid and he goes into
(23:07):
you know, neighborhood shouldn't be at a part of Oh
my god, and we forgot that. I forgot the fact
that the Gail got you know, got taken around the
corner about five dudes. I forgot about that little storyline
you know that was you know, Gail snuck out of
the White House to be with her to der boyfriend
(23:32):
and in the in the course of it, yeah, he
was almost read by some gang members and Richard happened
to be in the area and picked her up. And
it's a whole drummer. But but you know, before I
move on to d C Star girl, Bobby. Now, what
is Bobby is? He comes some could under He plays
(23:53):
like he hasn't he knows some people who are trying
to get dirt on some more dirt. What is Bobby's roll?
I know he's having an affair with Lily, and Lily
you know she went to him at the that the
Big John in with the God I got God, this
(24:18):
story's crispb Oh my gosh, poor Bobby bleeing Bobby. Bobby,
he was an insider at one point and it's not
been really, Lady Victoria a sexy insider because I've yet
to see him with his clothes on. Uh, the scene
(24:39):
may start with his clothes on, but the brother gonna
be out of his clothes really quick in that scene.
You know that, right, I know his tattoos, I know
the dimples in his but I know the muscles on
his shoulder. I could count the look apps on his stomach.
The little and this man don't keep his clothes on,
(25:01):
won't at all. It makes me feel really bad when
I watching him, though evenly don't feel about it. I mean,
it's to have a body like that a lot. But
why fish with your description of this fool Bobby. I
just had a break in and just tell y'all what
I see. No, Bobby, Bobby is definitely the sexual chocolate episode,
(25:22):
and he really wants Yeah, he's insider, and he hadn't
yet revealed it's exactly his relationship. But he's an insider
and he knows a lot about what's going on in
the White House and a lot about the family that's
controlling what's going on in the Right House. And so
he's trying to tell really literally you and danger girl.
(25:43):
So he's let's have sex. Let's let's get yeah, let's
get let's get down first, and then I need you
to go back to take sure of the right exactly.
Oh my god, Oh my god. Okay, cool, um, let's

thank you, yes, great, thank you so much for having me.
(02:32):
First of all, thank you for taking the time to
call them out. You know, when you watch a character,
Let's let's go back to the very first episode. Okay,
in a fight, got gotta take atta take here, gotta
take brother here. Let's more, I gotta take bro, you know,
drag out physical fight with the President of the United States.
(02:56):
Let's hold that thought. Hold that thought. Then let's go
back to you getting the script, okay from Tyler Perry,
who all knows a genius. Let's go and admit that publicly.
If you don't know what I'm telling you, he's a genius.
What were your thoughts, you know, President, you know Michelle
Obama coming out of the White House and you're playing
this over exaggerated character of an African American female entering
(03:21):
the White House in a dramatic series. What were your
thoughts When I first got the side for the audition,
I was horrified because I thought to myself, how could
I possibly I'm an actress that I'm just like I
don't know how I can pull this off. This character
(03:41):
is so opposite my personality. I'm just like, wow, what
what do I have or what can I pull from
to bring this character to life? Um? And so I
thought of the challenge and uh, in that first thing,
know how the audience would really stunned. But it was
(04:03):
shocked value. I mean, that's the first scene of the
series first and what like a what like a casual
slap slap? No, no, no, this was a knockdown, drag
drag out beat down like entire hotel room. And um yeah,
(04:23):
I was. I was afraid going into it, but once
we started rolling, oh my gosh, we had so much fun. Okay,
now now now you say this is this character is
not like your personality? What is your personality? It's more honestly, I, um,
I've always been py um. So I think I've come
out of my sinus a little bit. Book, but I'm
(04:43):
kind of an introvert. Um. I will say that the
character is strong, and I think I have a strong
I have strong views that I have a strong personality,
but I am not Yes, but I'm not I'm not
overt like she, So I'm not overt and coming over selfish, Uh,
(05:04):
domineering Uh. Sexist, uh, child abuser? Uh liar h going
to growing a dressing shop and beat the heck out
of your husband's mistress. Uh it tastes your daughter. H.
Come on now, it's a lot of qualities issue. Yeah. Yeah,
(05:24):
you know I realized people and you know they're just
like you did that. Um, Victor did that. Karen didn't
do that? Come Caen. Now here's the funny thing about
it is that we're gonna have a good time with
We're already have a good time. I'm talking to one
of the stars of the Oval. She plays uh the
first league. Firstly, Lady Victoria's the name correct the word ladying.
(05:50):
Her husband's name is Hunter. Now, as a story, as
a serious evolved, you know, you're starting to get a
little bit the pieces about the background of your family
and how he got there. But let's go to the
beginning of the series here, because first of all, you
want to say, Rashan, how successful this has has the
reaction to this series been? Okay? First of all, it's
(06:11):
been renewed for a second season, which we all know,
and the acting game is a blessing. Come on that
because you started like preparing life a little bit okay,
you know, because people don't the day and you're in
the acting game. It's like it's almost like check to check.
You can't you can't buy a car, you might not
(06:32):
make the notes because you don't know if you're gonna
get a job. It's really came by how it really starts.
You really have to be a person that's really patient
and also and just really just have strong faith and
also have a good good people around you that a
support system. Now, the original series has been a hit
for b ET. We're talking about the oval some highlights.
(06:53):
Is now in the first half of this debate season
number one new scripted series on cable for all audiences
eighteen to forty nine, Number one in both broadcast and
cable for African Americans eighteen to forty nine, which is
an incredible number cribal cover number. Now, you know, when
(07:15):
the series came out, I don't know. I wasn't watching
it in the beginning. So I had the band watch
because peoples, because they always know I like watch. I
watch a lot. That would tell me how do you
manage to watch some of TV and read some of
the books When I get a good series like this though,
that's that every every episode is like really really, So
(07:36):
I'm a back off a little bit here, tell us
about you just let's let's tell about, tell about tell
everybody about the family dynamics of the Oval Office. If
you miss anything, I'm I'm a feeling okay, okay, okay, okay. Well,
the Oval overall is it's people like to compare it
to just initially they like to compare it to scandal,
but it is that. It isn't oh no, it's not political.
(07:58):
Oh no, it's not not at all, know about. It's
all about relationships and the drama within. So it addresses
the upstairs, downstairs thing that goes down in the White
House where you have the first family, and we pulled
back the curtain on this family who's been placed in
(08:18):
the White House by the powers that be, and all
of their dysfunction is completely uncovered. And then we found
in the White House staff home, and they have a
whole other set of drama while dealing with the drama
in the White House, which is a lot to handle
for anybody at work, and then they go home and
deal with their own personal things. So there's drama on
(08:40):
both sides of it. Now, she left that so much
good stuff. Okay, the daughter, the daughter who was sleeping
with the drug dealer, right, and then your boy good
Please describe everybody. What is what? What is your son Jason?
What is his character? Is? He could keep hopping? He's
(09:01):
a pervert in the series? What what? What? What is it?
I've heard that word thrown out a lot in the series.
He's a pervert. He's a perfect What exactly is Jason's
character in the Oval? Okay, Jason who has played by
Daniel Korey Henderson, and he's like a wonderful actor. He's
nothing like this, by the way, he is nike ndt
(09:23):
of the time in the series. By the way, y'all
just let y'all know about that. He's all the way naked.
He's naked and most and he's disturbed. But here's this
thing about the kids, Um, people don't understand. They hate you,
they hate they hate me, and they kind of hate
Hunter too. Because what we've done is we brought them
(09:46):
through the Mayor's office. Is up in his office and
now the White House. So if these children have been
brought up in a bubble and have had their lives,
you know, under a microscope, and so protected from a
normal life that they sucked out in ways there's probably
other other children wouldn't, but they asked out. Um, they
(10:06):
act all the way out all the way so they're
they're just the Yeah, they're the third in. Jason is him.
He's got a lot of he's got a lot of
issues that will be uncovered as the season goes. Um,
I don't want to get too much away. There were
there were ms Moore. What we're gonna talk about, we'll
cover enough to make you want to watch the rest
(10:28):
of the season. Like I just tell your number one.
Note you number one for a reason now eighteen fortnight,
because you got your boy, your boy and seen at all.
Now see this is see the great thing about the
lady Victoria character, which is the first lady, and then
Hunter he's the president. Then Jason and Sophia. There's there
are their kids, outrageous kids. Then like she said, it's
(10:49):
more even juicier storylines when you get to pol Nancy,
Richard and Crazy Berry. Crazy Berry does he have emotional
Berry is the son of Nancy and Richard, and he
came by the White House one day to help out,
and all hell broke loose because he got in the
room with Sophia, and Sophia says something later on Gail Gail, Yeah,
(11:14):
it was Gail, like pabl Gail and Jason correct so
many series. In my head, Gail and Jason are the characters.
They are your children. So Gail got in the room
with Barry, and then she made the story by Barry,
and then he just calls j Richard to lose his job,
and but the storyline didn't stop after that. These story
lines are just so so outrageously juicy that they make
(11:37):
you want to see more. Correct they are they are,
and they're so so twisted and intertwined. It's it's really
interesting to see them unsold and see how the White
House staff and their families um are a part of
the actual family of the White the first family. It's
really interesting to see how they're connected and in ways
(11:59):
that you wouldn't think they would be. But yeah, my
daughter Gail, yes, she had a relationship. Her boyfriend was
a drug dealer, is the cousin of Barry, who was
the son of our butler, who was fired because Gail
accused him of rape when he was like you said,
helping out and then you had then you then you
(12:21):
had to chage your doughter. Id Lady Victoria had went
as far as she can go, but she tasted the
doughter to see if it worked. That's what That's what
I loved about. You tage your daughter to see if
it could work. And then but it's your story now,
if you got some extra juice at what you left out?
(12:43):
What you left out is before all before Victoria tastes Gale.
Gail jumped from the moving car on the way to
the white and when he got to the White House, Yeah,
I didn't necessary that. Oh my good. You know we
were about to break here and we haven't gotten to yet.
(13:06):
Two d C Star girl, I want to get to that.
It's a couple of more questions. I got to ask
you the next break because it's just can I say congratulations?
You want an amazingly entertaining, juicy soap operative soap opera
formad that, uh, it's funny, it's sexy, is over the top.
(13:27):
And your character, like I said, you know, when you
made a pass at poor Sam, he didn't know what
to do. That's about the third guy in this series.
You made a really strong pass app the little white
guy turned you down. Earlier in the season, you're just
a but but then but then you always make it
like you were really talking to them, just kind of talking.
(13:53):

E R dot ai. Oh, well, on, thank you for
coming back. This is money Making Conversation. I'm the host
with Sean McDonald. We're talking to one of the stars
of The Oval, and she also was one of the
stars of DC's new series, Uh, the c WS new
series d C The Star Girl. But I want to
wrap up a few more questions about The Oval. Uh
uh Salmon Priscilla character. You know Sam who works security
(16:28):
at the d C H at the White House, and
you made a pass in him. Oh that that they
seem to be the most stable characters on the show,
unless unless I missed something. I usually called every episode.
But Sam and Priscilla seemed to be the most stable
characters on the show. I thought Nancy and Richard was,
but they both of them crazy too. But what about
(16:49):
Sam and Priscilla, Sam, and I would interest to say
that they do have the most stable relationship so far.
They have the most stareful relationship thus far, you know,
but there is a whole mess and she has a
(17:09):
way of working her way into people's lives and causing
causing trouble yes, Okay, Now let'sten. Here's an interesting backstory
because I finally met your grandmother, okay, and it seems
to me that your family, your family in particular, okay,
sent your way. You know, they got money, okay, and
(17:30):
they got influence. And so, like Hunter said, you know,
they shocked me when I became mayor. Then they shocked
me when I became governor. And now I am the
President of the United States. And I don't I didn't
ask for any of this, And so what what what?
What was your role in all of this? Your characters role?
Were you along for the ride or you just afraid
to make a uh say no because of who your
(17:53):
parents were? You know, a little bit of both. Because
Victoria is about the business of money, right. But she
had she had a sumultuous childhood where her her family.
She felt as though her family didn't love her. She
was a blessing of the family and there is pun
intended there. Um. And her her parents are they're they're powerful,
(18:15):
They're one of the top five families in the country.
They run the country. So they sent her away when
she was a child, and um, she's always felt like
she was under their control. But she never felt their acceptance.
So in trying to trying to be accepted by her family,
she's left herself onto this man who they found to
be um kind of like a catalyst, you know, to
(18:39):
to to place their influence into the White House and
and and its pologies and procedures, and so Victoria is
along like that ride, but she's really trying to get
off the roller coaster, you know, honestly, she she she's
done everything that she can and now it's she wants
his money and she wants out. But then you have
(19:01):
then you have Donald's character and Coyle's character their lovers. Okay,
but it seems to me now they've been with you
guys a long time because the storylines seem to talk
about they know about the family, your family, and they
know what they can do. So give me a little
backstory on them, if you can. Just being nosy now
and just being nosy, well, their story is currently unfolding.
(19:25):
So um yeah, So so Donald, I don't know unfolding.
It could be the man was naked in his bed,
buck naked in his and then I got to see
got to see the brother got to see his butt
in the hotel room. Okay, when when Lily showed up
and told the girl, that told the girl to get
the heck out. Okay, so so, but but I digress,
(19:49):
I digress, Lady Victoria, please continue. So that Staff and
he has been a White House nainstate, but he's relatively
new too um Hunter's life. But what Hunter doesn't know
is that Donald is somehow connected to one of these
(20:11):
five families. I can't say whether it's you know, our
family or not, that he's connected to one of these
thy family who's puppeteering, you know, the people in the
White House. And so he's got to stay in line.
That's why he needs to stain Mary to Lily for
the optics of it. But he has Kyle as his
love right right that that that that there was previous lovers.
(20:31):
Then the Kyle cheated on him, okay, then they broke up.
And then when he broke up, that's when she found
found Lily from watch She's from watch the Community or know.
She said, boy, you do watch this series, don't you?
And and so, but I gotta go back to the
biggest food in the show. I got to go back
to before we move on Barry, Oh god, Okay, before
(20:58):
I go to Barry. I just compliment Tyler Perry on
this sets in this series. I have not been to
his campound. I'm based in Atlanta, but the sets you're
based here, Yes, the sets are amazing. The sets are amazing. Listen.
What he did was he built a white House almost
to scale on his campus. It only took a couple
(21:20):
of months to do. We watched it be erected as
we were preparing for the show, and it is amazing.
As an understatement, whenever everything calms down and we're going
to get back to normal, I encourage you to come
to the campus and tour it. It is phenomenal. I'm looking.
You know, I've been fortunate. Guy. I was in the
(21:42):
OVERLA offers. I met President Obama, So I know walking
down that hallway, I know, going in that room, I
know exactly you know how this stuff lays out. I went,
they gave me a complete tour of the White House.
So when I'm going, when you guys are going room
in the room and going, that's authentic. That's authentic, that's legitimate,
because you know it's like, is you going something you
know you're only gonna adventure into once in your lifetime?
(22:03):
You kind of like making snapshots so you can remember
the experience. They won't let you take photos. They won't
let you take photos, and so the photos they take
of you, as a professional photo photographer didn't have to
screen the photos, and they eventually was sending the photos
to you are the ones they took of you, taking
taking of you while you were at the White House.
But when I when I look at Barry's character, another
(22:25):
over the top character, that's funny and uh that that
that that can you explain to me? How can we
say stupider or dumber or how many bad decisions can
you make in one season? Let's just say poor decisions?
But he was he started off at this advantage because
(22:46):
this poor child was a huge over rape. Okay, and
he didn't do it. But then you know he used
to be involved with this, uh this woman who's going
to call her and they had a child together, comes
in with her cult members and kidnaps his kid. And
so he's looking for his kid and he goes into
(23:07):
you know, neighborhood shouldn't be at a part of Oh
my god, and we forgot that. I forgot the fact
that the Gail got you know, got taken around the
corner about five dudes. I forgot about that little storyline
you know that was you know, Gail snuck out of
the White House to be with her to der boyfriend
(23:32):
and in the in the course of it, yeah, he
was almost read by some gang members and Richard happened
to be in the area and picked her up. And
it's a whole drummer. But but you know, before I
move on to d C Star girl, Bobby. Now, what
is Bobby is? He comes some could under He plays
(23:53):
like he hasn't he knows some people who are trying
to get dirt on some more dirt. What is Bobby's roll?
I know he's having an affair with Lily, and Lily
you know she went to him at the that the
Big John in with the God I got God, this
(24:18):
story's crispb Oh my gosh, poor Bobby bleeing Bobby. Bobby,
he was an insider at one point and it's not
been really, Lady Victoria a sexy insider because I've yet
to see him with his clothes on. Uh, the scene
(24:39):
may start with his clothes on, but the brother gonna
be out of his clothes really quick in that scene.
You know that, right, I know his tattoos, I know
the dimples in his but I know the muscles on
his shoulder. I could count the look apps on his stomach.
The little and this man don't keep his clothes on,
(25:01):
won't at all. It makes me feel really bad when
I watching him, though evenly don't feel about it. I mean,
it's to have a body like that a lot. But
why fish with your description of this fool Bobby. I
just had a break in and just tell y'all what
I see. No, Bobby, Bobby is definitely the sexual chocolate episode,
(25:22):
and he really wants Yeah, he's insider, and he hadn't
yet revealed it's exactly his relationship. But he's an insider
and he knows a lot about what's going on in
the White House and a lot about the family that's
controlling what's going on in the Right House. And so
he's trying to tell really literally you and danger girl.
(25:43):
So he's let's have sex. Let's let's get yeah, let's
get let's get down first, and then I need you
to go back to take sure of the right exactly.
Oh my god, Oh my god. Okay, cool, um, let's
