That was the point of doing the show originally, and I wasn’t too happy with the way things unfolded, but like with anything in life, things happen, you get tested. The next season is definitely coming soon. Everything is going well, it’s definitely a different scenario this time around being that now I get to finally let the world know who I am and really focus on the work stuff, everything that I wanted to focus on in the beginning and the original intention of doing the show last year. It’s been quite busy on this end for me, no complaints though. I’m in the process of shooting the next season, season three of Love and Hip Hop. Interview by Lauren Nostro ( new with you?
