Oh my goodness. Was I mad at her? I wanted to hit her! I was so upset with her at that moment after she told me shut up. My mom doesn’t even tell me shut up because when she tells me shut up, I’m not going to hear anything after. I’m going to roll my eyes and suck my teeth. I’m not going to hear anything! So at the moment, I didn’t hear anything else that she said. I was just like ‘Whatever, get out of my face.’ But when I came home and watched it and heard everything that she said, like when she said ‘My mom yells at me like this because she loves me.’ At the moment, I was thinking ‘But you ain’t my momma.’ But with me watching, I’m like this lady really cares about me. She loves me.
Do you still want to pursue modeling?
Yes. Tyra and her mom are my mentors. Tyra says that she’s going to make sure that I go out to the agencies and make sure that I work. She’s going to stay on me. She says she’s going to be tough with me because she knows that I’m stubborn. But she says she’s going to just push me. And I want to do it. I can’t wait to start! As long as I don’t have to do another reality show!
How did your son react to seeing you on TV?
He runs to the TV like 'That’s Mommy right there. That’s Mommy.' He loves it. But after thirty minutes of it, he’s like ‘I wanna watch Spongebob.’ Like 'It’s enough of you Mommy already.'
What about your other family members and friends? How have they reacted to you being on TV?
TV really makes you know who your family and friends are. My mom and my Grandma and my baby’s father are my number one fans. It’s a love-hate thing with my friends and other family. They wish it was them on [TV]. They’ll say like “Why did you do this? Why did you do that?” Then when I got cut, everybody seemed to be so happy. Nobody was supporting me. It’s a love-hate thing with my family.
What was the most memorable experience you had on the show?
The most memorable was us bothering Michelle about that face disease. It was mean, but it was hilarious! Michelle knew that we were not trying to make her feel bad and that it was all a joke…
You were picked for the show before, but left because of anger issues. What made you decide to audition a second time?
