Ashley Nicole
And I'm Alexis Stoudemire on Instagram.
Alexis Stoudemire
And we are the humble badd.
Shirelle Rosado
Make sure you guys subscribe. We're gonna go into the first topic, you guys. Pamela Anderson attended the Golden Globe Awards without makeup.
Alexis Stoudemire
I saw lashes.
Shirelle Rosado
Y'all seen that?
Alexis Stoudemire
I saw that.
Ashley Nicole
She's been doing that. Yeah.
Alexis Stoudemire
That's her thing.
Shirelle Rosado
So it definitely sparked a conversation in the beauty world. Like, is this the new trend? I feel like it was something great because we're so used to just throwing on so much makeup, and we think that is what defines us as a woman. That is the beauty, but it's not. I mean, I'm. I'm a prime example of it. I feel like I'm only cute when I throw on the makeup.
Ashley Nicole
Really?
Alexis Stoudemire
Do you cover up the freckles?
Shirelle Rosado
Sometimes I feel like that I feel like, dang, I look ugly. I need to go put on some makeup. But that's just, that's the mindset we have put out in the world. So big shout out to Pamela Anderson for, for doing that and, and reminding women that it's okay to be seen and show the world that you have natural beauty, that you're beautiful. So.
Alexis Stoudemire
And to age gracefully. And that age is okay. And looking your age is o.
Ashley Nicole
Absolutely.
Alexis Stoudemire
Yeah. Especially like in Hollywood, you know, like, I'm sure she's probably. She's like a unicorn. Like, they're not doing that. Everybody's trying to figure out, like the fountain of youth, really. That's like, what doctor do I go to? What procedure do I need? What makeup artist? What hair extension? Like, everything that you need to make yourself look like something. And she's really, you know, sending out a different message. And I love that. I think that's amazing. Alicia Keys, she does the whole no makeup, no lashes. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Ashley Nicole
That's who really got me into, like, introduced me to that, really. That balls. You know what I mean? The balls. The confidence of, like, you know what? I don't need this. I can go out there. My voice is what everyone wants to hear. I want to not wear makeup. I'm like being a tomboy. I'm really just getting into the makeup low key. My daughters are the ones that are very much girly, very much into, like, showing me what to do. And so, like, for them to be put on a pedestal, meaning, like celebrities to always be glammed up, always be ready, be on. I think it's admirable for, you know, Pamela Anderson, who was like a sex symbol, you know, with Baywatch, to be like, you know what? I'm just gonna bear it all. This is who I really am. And without all of this, this is who I am as Pamela Anderson. So we shout out to her being a humble baddie.
Shirelle Rosado
Not like that. You know, I'm gonna take it back because last week before my best friend Ashley. Ashley, you can testify to this. Last week I was looking like a mole rat. I was looking sick.
Ashley Nicole
A mole rat. Ashley.
Shirelle Rosado
Rat. Tell the truth.
Alexis Stoudemire
I mean, I wouldn't have said mole.
Shirelle Rosado
Rat around the edge of a mole rat. I would just say, you know, I needed the lashes.
Alexis Stoudemire
The lashes. They did.
Shirelle Rosado
Yeah, they were a little sparse.
Ashley Nicole
They were a little sparse.
Shirelle Rosado
Ashley was.
Alexis Stoudemire
No, we was at the house getting our lashes done at like 1 o'clock in the morning.
Shirelle Rosado
Yes. That's how Ashley pulled out. Massage.
Alexis Stoudemire
I Was like, yeah. No, I was like, yeah, yeah, Set the table up. I said, phil, bring the table.
Ashley Nicole
Emergency.
Alexis Stoudemire
Emergency. Yeah, get the lashes.
Shirelle Rosado
Gigi lives three and a half hours away from us. And we was like, we can't keep on going.
Ashley Nicole
Shout out to Gigi.
Shirelle Rosado
Ashley was fine.
Alexis Stoudemire
No, I needed them too.
Shirelle Rosado
But you. I was looking horrible. It was like I was here.
Alexis Stoudemire
She did us good. All I know is we needed that.
Shirelle Rosado
Shout out to Gigi.
Alexis Stoudemire
Shout out to Gigi in these beautiful lashes.
Ashley Nicole
Shout out to Gigi. But don't y'all feel like you, like, once your lashes are like a new.
Alexis Stoudemire
Person, you feel better, right?
Shirelle Rosado
Was popping. The skin was glowing. I'm like, okay. And I got my eyebrows done.
Ashley Nicole
I see that.
Shirelle Rosado
You know, they got them touched up.
Alexis Stoudemire
They looking good.
Ashley Nicole
So that's like your go to is like the brow. If the brow and the lash is on it, then I'm good.
Shirelle Rosado
And a little lip gloss.
Alexis Stoudemire
So my thing is, like, I'm cool with the whole glam thing, but you just got to make sure, like, you're taking care of what's under it. So, like, I'm cool with the glam. Like, wear your makeup full glam, but make sure you take care of your skin. You know what I mean? I'm cool with the wigs and the weaves and the extensions, but make sure you taking care of, like, your natural hair under it. You know what I mean? Like, I think, you know, you just. There has to be a balance for everything. And I think that's, you know, that's the balance. Like, if you're going to spend all that money on the hair, also spend the money on the hair care. You know what I mean?
Ashley Nicole
I agree with that.
Shirelle Rosado
My question to you guys, Back to Pamela Anderson. Her going on the red carpet without makeup. Would y'all attend a big awards ceremony on.
Ashley Nicole
I'm about that life.
Shirelle Rosado
I would. Ashley, you are beautiful, naturally.
Alexis Stoudemire
Yeah, I can do that at home. But if I'm going to a big event. No, bitch, I want to have, like, all the glam, all the makeup, the big ass dress, the heels, like, everything, bitch. I'm finna come to motherfucking shine, bitch.
Ashley Nicole
You want to show up and show up? Yes. I'm finna give it, give it up.
Alexis Stoudemire
I'm going to give.
Ashley Nicole
Okay, Let me give it and leave nothing.
Alexis Stoudemire
I'm firm head. Nothing. Talk.
Ashley Nicole
Okay.
Shirelle Rosado
You have given it for 10 years straight. You gave, gave, gave on the red carpet. Would you ever do a day, a day, a time walking the red carpet with no makeup?
Ashley Nicole
Yeah.
Alexis Stoudemire
I probably would, yeah. If I was already done all the red carpets and I've done all the events and. Yeah, yeah, I could see myself doing that.
Ashley Nicole
Yeah, I would. There is a time where I was just like, it's a chore for me. Like, I feel like, ah, I gotta get my makeup done. I'd rather. Cause y'all know me, I'll show up with nothing on and just be fine with it. Going back to what you said, Ashley, taking care of your skin, right? It's a priority for me, you know, making sure my skin stays.
Shirelle Rosado
Your skin be looking like a baby.
Ashley Nicole
But like butter lickable, you know what I'm saying?
Shirelle Rosado
Ooh, I might have to look at them legs.
Ashley Nicole
But it is. I like, I was. I have to make sure when I get my makeup done that I have to take off my makeup at night. You know, it's just, I feel like I'm a little claustrophobic sometimes.
Shirelle Rosado
But can you believe some people?
Ashley Nicole
I'm getting used to it.
Shirelle Rosado
Sleep with makeup wear for two to three days.
Alexis Stoudemire
Yeah. No, no, no, I can't do that. Some people, it's like they want to save their eye makeup.
Ashley Nicole
I'm guilty of it.
Alexis Stoudemire
So they'll like sleep in it, girl.
Ashley Nicole
Gotta sleep in your makeup, girl. I'm guilty of it. I got, I like get home late and just. No, now look up the lashes on the pillowcase.
Shirelle Rosado
I can't, I can't clean my face.
Ashley Nicole
It's horrible.
Shirelle Rosado
What I'm saying is some people will keep that same face on Saturday, Friday night.
Alexis Stoudemire
No, that's just nasties again.
Shirelle Rosado
Saturday night and sometimes Sunday night.
Alexis Stoudemire
That's just nasty. That's nasty. A three time wear, that's just hygiene, I think at that point.
Ashley Nicole
Yeah.
Alexis Stoudemire
And laziness. That's nasty. That's different. But I mean, I, I'm, I mean, I don't like go about my everyday life in like glam, like makeup. Like I'm very much, you know, no makeup. Like, I dress like a boy most of the time, like at home, you know what I mean? So I think, you know, I like, I like both sides of it.
Shirelle Rosado
I like, I honestly don't like wearing makeup. I feel, I feel like it's too much on my face and I feel like makeup adds like five to ten years on me.
Ashley Nicole
I love like ages you a little bit.
Shirelle Rosado
It ages. Not a little age.
Ashley Nicole
Well, that's what you feel. You feel like it.
Shirelle Rosado
Yes, it does. Because people be like, dang, you look, you look like you in your 50s, bitch. I'm only 37.
Ashley Nicole
Like, no, bring it down a notch.
Shirelle Rosado
But when I don't have makeup, it's like, oh, you look like you're in your late 20s.
Alexis Stoudemire
Yeah. It's because of your freckles. They're very youthful. I love them.
Shirelle Rosado
Thank you, girls.
Ashley Nicole
That's great. Yeah, they are.
Alexis Stoudemire
It is. I ain't got no damn freckles. So I'm gonna be putting on this makeup for whatever I got to be.
Shirelle Rosado
You don't need it, boo. You don't need it.
Ashley Nicole
I remember this one time at actually, speaking of major carpets, it was during the Met Gala. I was so nervous because everything has to be approved prior, from your hair, your makeup to what you're wearing, what your guest is wearing. Everything for what?
Shirelle Rosado
What is this?
Ashley Nicole
For the Met Gala that happens in May. And so you. They almost want a test run of what you're coming out with to make sure you're on theme, to make sure you're on top of it. So, like, that pressure is on another level. And then you turn around and you see all these cameras, and you see all of these. You know, everyone's doing these live interviews, so you want to be on point, and then at the same time, you turn around and, like, you know, everyone is on. Everybody is like, you know, like, performing and showing up and being honest. So I feel like it's like low key. Makeup can be like a mask to, like, almost cover blemishes. Like, you know, internal and physical blemishes. But at the same time, it's like people can. They're kind of hiding behind that, you know what I mean? Of this glam of the big hair, the big lashes, the makeup, and really, who are you?
Shirelle Rosado
I think it's art, though. I think. I don't think it covers up. I think for majority, it's art. It just enhanced the beauty. It's. It's. It's a show.
Ashley Nicole
Like, you don't.
Shirelle Rosado
When you. Especially for Met Gala, you're enhancing the beauty.
Alexis Stoudemire
You.
Shirelle Rosado
You're being extra, so.
Ashley Nicole
Absolutely, very much extra. Yeah.
Shirelle Rosado
We need to see your pictures from when you went to the Met Gala.
Alexis Stoudemire
Girl, we had to pull them.
Shirelle Rosado
We're gonna judge. Send us the pictures. We're gonna have. We're gonna see if. If.
Alexis Stoudemire
Thank you. I hope you did us well, girl. I hope you showed up and showed out. We're gonna let.
Ashley Nicole
You have to.
Shirelle Rosado
We gonna let you know. We're gonna let.
Alexis Stoudemire
All right. Well, y'all, speaking of Pamela Anderson and her being such a hot girl, I have some other hot girl headline News.
Shirelle Rosado
Okay. Hot girl headline news.
Alexis Stoudemire
So let's talk about Simone Biles. She's been in the headlines lately. She's contemplating going back to the. The Olympics in 2028. Let me read what she said exactly. She said, I'm at a point in my career where I'm humble enough to know when to be done. And she said that it would be greedy for her to return to the Olympics in 2028 because there's almost nothing left for her to do.
Ashley Nicole
Ooh.
Alexis Stoudemire
I think that's, you know, first of all, obviously, very humble of her because she is, like, one of the most. Well, she is the most decorated gymnast in history. She is a bam.
Ashley Nicole
Yeah.
Alexis Stoudemire
A badass motherfucker.
Ashley Nicole
Not y'all standing in seat. See these two over here, y'all?
Alexis Stoudemire
She totally is. She is the vamp right now. You know, she is.
Ashley Nicole
She really is.
Alexis Stoudemire
She's an amazing woman. And to know, you know, that she's accomplished so much and she realizes that, you know, I've done what I needed to do.
Ashley Nicole
Yes.
Alexis Stoudemire
And I think, you know, it's great that she can take that self reflection and, you know, give somebody else an opportunity to shine. She doesn't feel like she can get any higher in this. In this space. So maybe it's time for her to move on into a different space.
Shirelle Rosado
And I feel like she's also focusing on herself, her mental health, like, taking care of herself. Because when you devote so much time to be at the top, to be the goat of your sport, you're not taking time out for yourself internally, your mindset and everything, because you're so focusing on.
Alexis Stoudemire
And also, it's so much pressure, too.
Shirelle Rosado
It is, yes.
Alexis Stoudemire
You know, like, what if you don't perform like you did four years ago? What if, you know.
Ashley Nicole
Absolutely.
Shirelle Rosado
And you know, the world is. These people are crazy.
Ashley Nicole
They are. They're micromanaging every little thing that she does.
Shirelle Rosado
You can't have one mess up.
Ashley Nicole
Absolutely.
Alexis Stoudemire
I think I see her out supporting her man. She's going to the game.
Ashley Nicole
She can be a wife.
Shirelle Rosado
She's a wag.
Ashley Nicole
She's a wag.
Alexis Stoudemire
I love it. She's showing up for her man. That's beautiful.
Ashley Nicole
So.
Alexis Stoudemire
So what do you guys think about that? I feel like, you know, in our lives, there are times where we have to take a step back or in self reflect and, you know, make decisions where we feel like, you know, we need to move on to another space. Like, we've done everything we could do in this realm. I know, like Shirelle, you and like, the Real estate industry. You opened up your brokerage, but now you're on to, like, developing. Is that. Is that. Would you say a time where you felt like you needed to move on in a different space?
Shirelle Rosado
In that specific topic? I would say it was more of growth. But I have a prime example where I felt like I needed to pull back. And I went to my leadership. I was at E7. I had soldiers. I said, my mind is all fucked up. I just did two tours to Afghanistan. I'm hurt, I'm injured. If I'm not right, I can't train my soldiers to be right. It's time for me to step back because I don't want to lead them down the wrong path. They're looking up, up to me. So at that point, when I went to my doctor, when I was talking to my therapist, I told them, I, I can't do this anymore. It's not right. I'm failing my soldiers if I continue to stay in and just stay in for the time and the paycheck.
Alexis Stoudemire
It's like, very mature of you. Very, like, intuitive of you, you know, to be able to, like, really just look within and realize how you. You can affect other people and know that it's a. Just. It's time for you to move to a different space.
Shirelle Rosado
Yeah. Because you go through so much and you'll know your mindset is not the same. You don't have the same drive as you had. But this was for me. I didn't have the same drive as I had before, and I had to reevaluate myself. I was like, I'm only failing my soldiers if I can tell you to stay for a paycheck.
Ashley Nicole
Right, right. You know, and you're not. You can be your best self.
Shirelle Rosado
Exactly.
Ashley Nicole
Way to pivot, for sure.
Shirelle Rosado
Thank you.
Ashley Nicole
Absolutely.
Alexis Stoudemire
Okay. So, Lex, what about you? Like, how do you know when it's time for you to move forward?
Ashley Nicole
Well, sometimes it's really out of your hands. Low key. Mine was out of my hands to shift, really, my family dynamics during my divorce, for example. Out of my hands meaning now. I had to learn how to budget differently. I had to learn how to really run my household differently. I had to learn what it is for me to thrive and to really have a source of income and really just depend on Alexis and get my mental health together. Really just really focus on getting back to who I am in self.
Alexis Stoudemire
So sometimes you just don't have a choice.
Ashley Nicole
Sometimes you have no choice. You have no choice. And so it was like, you know what? Now I have to pick it up. I need to figure this out. I need to put my big girl panties on and say, you know what? Okay, now it's time for me to, like, catapult into where I need to be, into my essence, you know, because.
Shirelle Rosado
We naturally go into the state of survival mode.
Ashley Nicole
That's it.
Shirelle Rosado
So it's like while you're in survival mode, you still up.
Ashley Nicole
Yes.
Shirelle Rosado
Mentally. And you don't even know it because you're fighting for everything else. And everyone else, at a point, you're gonna break down, so you have to pull back and say, I gotta take care of myself.
Ashley Nicole
Yes. And that was my main priority. I felt like I was almost just, like, numb, you know what I mean? Kind of just kind of going through the motions of things and just letting things go. But then it turns into, like, being proactive and really much, like hardening.
Alexis Stoudemire
And it's like phases to it.
Ashley Nicole
It is phases. It is phases. And I learned to give myself grace. I really learned how to be patient, you know what I mean? And not have this instant gratification of now, now, now. Long term goals, make sure. And short term, too. But at the same time, it really just put an adjustment on me of where it is that I need to be and how I can be the most productive. Alexis.
Alexis Stoudemire
Yeah. And you did that shit.
Ashley Nicole
Thank you.
Alexis Stoudemire
You did a good job.
Ashley Nicole
And I feel like I'm still going too, you know, it's constant.
Alexis Stoudemire
It is.
Ashley Nicole
It's constant work. It's constant reevaluation and recalibrating and figuring things out.
Alexis Stoudemire
That's life. Life is just a constant evolution and growth and. Yeah, but you did that shift.
Ashley Nicole
Thank you.
Shirelle Rosado
What about you, Ashley?
Ashley Nicole
Yes.
Alexis Stoudemire
Oh, shit. I mean, I think for me, there was a big shift, I would say, when Phil retired, because, you know, we were doing life a certain way, that I was in control of everything, you know, I was in control of home and how we did things, how I raised our son, you know, what he ate, what he drank, when he went to bed, what he did, what he wore, everything. You know what I mean? And then there's a lot of talk about when the guys retire, and it's a lot about him and not so much about, you know, the woman, the wife or girlfriend, whoever at home. And so I was prepared for him, but I wasn't prepared for, like, the adjustment that I needed to make. And so for me, I think I was in a space of, you know, just thinking I had everything in control. And I knew that you had a system going. I had A system going. And I felt like if I wanted my marriage to survive the retirement, which, you know, everybody knows, statistic that, you know, once they retire, your marriage goes down the drain. You know, I knew that I had to make a shift. And so for me, it was. It was. That was shifting, you know, the way I think about things, the way I make decisions, the way I just do my everyday things. So. So it wasn't something that I. Like you said, I was basically forced to do that, but.
Shirelle Rosado
Yeah, but you did very well. And look at.
Alexis Stoudemire
I'm just doing it, child. Every day. Every day, y'all be getting on each other's nerves.
Shirelle Rosado
I applaud you and feel. We spoke about this. What was that the other day? We were talking about, like, everything.
Alexis Stoudemire
Yes.

Ashley Nicole
Didn't warn you, and didn't. Definitely didn't choose your good angles. What's the move? Block, unfollow or mute?
Alexis Stoudemire
I mute that bitch.
Shirelle Rosado
It would never happen to me because.
Alexis Stoudemire
First I.
Shirelle Rosado
I say no to pictures anyway. And if one of my friends, who I call a friend post, they know not to post no picture of me. And I'm looking crazy. So if your ass ever do that, one of my closest haters.
Alexis Stoudemire
The haters be hating.
Shirelle Rosado
I'mma block your ass.
Alexis Stoudemire
They really do.
Ashley Nicole
They really do. You gotta. I feel like you gotta like, give everybody the airbrush or you gotta give everybody a light tap or something. You know, it's an equal opportunity.
Shirelle Rosado
All my friends, we look out for each other. Like, we ain't finna post no picture looking crazy. No, I don't have to worry about that.
Ashley Nicole
It's like the approval. You're like, yeah, do you approve this? Is this cool with y'all?
Alexis Stoudemire
Y'all be reposting pictures, though. Like, if it's an ugly picture and they posted it and you know they didn't mean no harm, but it's just an ugly ass picture. But I ain't gonna be posting.
Shirelle Rosado
But I tell people quick if I ain't looking right and I don't wanna take a picture.
Ashley Nicole
Take that shit down.
Shirelle Rosado
No, I'm not taking a picture. So you won't have it to even post.
Ashley Nicole
You be like, this is not an option.
Shirelle Rosado
No, no, ma'am. They may think I'm crazy. Stank, Whatever. No, I'm not taking a picture. I'm not in the mood to take a picture.
Ashley Nicole
So it's a blocker, unfollower or a mute.
Alexis Stoudemire
A mute. I'll mute somebody real quick. Like, you look at me wrong, bitch. I'm a mute your ass. For real.
Ashley Nicole
But muting is good for your mental. I think it is.
Alexis Stoudemire
I mute people all the time, every day.
Shirelle Rosado
I don't even know how to mute people.
Alexis Stoudemire
I'll show you.
Ashley Nicole
Yeah, we'll show you how to mute.
Shirelle Rosado
Will it let them know that it's that you muted them?
Alexis Stoudemire
I don't know. I don't know if it do, but it don't matter.
Ashley Nicole
I don't think it does.
Shirelle Rosado
I'm quick to block people now.
Alexis Stoudemire
I don't block nobody. I want to. I want them to see. I want them.
Shirelle Rosado
It'd be fake pages though. It ain't the real people.
Alexis Stoudemire
I don't give a damn. I want them to see.
Shirelle Rosado
And they be coming back around with a whole new page.
Ashley Nicole
Cheryl says she be blocking the bots.
Shirelle Rosado
I sure do.
Alexis Stoudemire
I don't care. I want them to see everything. I just don't want to see them.
Ashley Nicole
I'm like ass.
Shirelle Rosado
But when they're desperate, they gonna go create a whole nother page.
Alexis Stoudemire
I don't give a damn. Exactly. That's the. So it's pointless to block them.
Ashley Nicole
People have time.
Alexis Stoudemire
Just let them look from their dumb ass fake page. The first one, they just gonna make another one.
Ashley Nicole
People have way too much time on their ass.
Alexis Stoudemire
They do, they swear. Okay, so we muting her. What's next?
Ashley Nicole
You're out with friends, having a blast and someone tags your location on Instagram? The catch. You didn't want certain people knowing where you were. Are you gonna block, unfollow, or mute?
Shirelle Rosado
I'm gonna call they ass out. Cause why the fuck is you tagging our live location?
Ashley Nicole
Yeah, I don't like that.
Shirelle Rosado
While we enjoying ourselves. Like, are you crazy?
Ashley Nicole
It's dangerous.
Shirelle Rosado
Yes, it's very d. Dangerous.
Ashley Nicole
I don't like it.
Shirelle Rosado
But then again, my people don't know how to do that. They know.
Alexis Stoudemire
Well, I don't know. I would probably. I would probably. If it was a habitual thing, then I would probably unfollow because you don't have good social media etiquette.
Ashley Nicole
That's fair.
Alexis Stoudemire
I like that.
Shirelle Rosado
What about this one? Everything. You always pulling out your camera.
Ashley Nicole
I don't like that.
Shirelle Rosado
Not aware of what's going on in the scenes or anything.
Ashley Nicole
You know, I like my extracurriculars and so I don't need that to be, you know, I want to be in my element.
Alexis Stoudemire
Some stuff is just not for success.
Ashley Nicole
It's not for the gram.
Shirelle Rosado

Ashley Nicole
That's right. Yeah, that's right.
Alexis Stoudemire
Yeah. Social media etiquette is a thing. It really is. It's a time and place to be posting for videos, for pictures, for everything. And if you don't got it, then, yeah, you gonna get unfollowed.
Ashley Nicole
I feel like I'm with you, Ash. I'm like, look, look. If it becomes habitual and it's ongoing thing, because it is a Safety thing. It's a safety concern. We are public figures. People do know when we pull up, we are very social. And so it becomes dangerous. It can be dangerous.
Shirelle Rosado
It is.
Alexis Stoudemire
Even if you're not a public figure, you shouldn't anybody where you're at. You know, at the same time, I.
Shirelle Rosado

Shirelle Rosado
I don't care if. Even if it is close friends is something. What if you forget who you put in your close friends and you decide to get outside the box one day?
Ashley Nicole
Yeah.
Shirelle Rosado
And shake that up at the same time.
Alexis Stoudemire

Alexis Stoudemire
Okay, so here's my dilemma. My husband and I are in a bit of a routine in the bedroom. Same position, same moves, same everything. It's starting to feel a little meh, you know?
Ashley Nicole
Let me get that one more time.
Alexis Stoudemire
Little meh. That's what Cindy said. Okay, Cindy, I'm ready to spice things up. And I've even thought about bringing in a third. A third?

Literally with curtain.
Alexis Stoudemire
I wasn't ready.
Shirelle Rosado
Okay, Cindy.
Alexis Stoudemire
Okay, third. Or some toys. But I want it to be fun, sexy, and something that reignites the spark we once had. What do you think I can do? Help a girl out.

Shirelle Rosado
Lex is probably a freak in the group.
Ashley Nicole
I am. I'm proud. Freak. Okay.
Alexis Stoudemire
Yeah. The sex spurt.
Shirelle Rosado
Go ahead.
Ashley Nicole
I would say let's start with baby steps, because adding someone into the bedroom is definitely a confidence thing. It could be a jealousy thing. And if you trying to lock it in with your Your mates, your husband, like, y'all are intimate and exchanging all these, you know, energies. Have you ever brought somebody to bring somebody? No, never.
Shirelle Rosado
Okay.
Ashley Nicole
Never? No, never.
Shirelle Rosado
Okay.
Alexis Stoudemire
Never. Got it?
Ashley Nicole
I want to be the main attraction. I want to be the main attraction, but I say bring some toys in. There's a plethora of different types of toys. Whatever you into, if it's pulling, tickling, teasing, start with that and see what your partner's into. And then that'll elevate to me the sex.
Alexis Stoudemire
Okay.
Ashley Nicole
You know you're supposed to get down and dirty with your mates.
Shirelle Rosado
Yes.
Ashley Nicole
You know what I mean?
Shirelle Rosado
Well, somebody. Somebody can speak highly of getting down and dirty with their husband.
Ashley Nicole
Yes. To let us. Let us know how to keep it fresh.
Shirelle Rosado
Because, Ashley, we want to know. Give Cindy some tips, girl.
Alexis Stoudemire
Okay, so Cindy, Cindy, girl, let us know. I think you have to, like, tap into whatever your man like. Like what you said. So, like, my man, he like Call of Duty. He like playing the games or whatever. So, you know, a little role play.
Ashley Nicole
Yeah.
Alexis Stoudemire
You know, a little dress up. You know, like Tomb Raider with the guns. And that's sexy, though. You know what I'm saying? Like, role play, show up different. Is it like a voice change?
Ashley Nicole
Is it a voice change? Hair change? Everything.
Shirelle Rosado
Everything.
Alexis Stoudemire
It's everything. It's a whole. It's a whole. You're a different person. So I would say do that. Like, whatever he's into, you gotta play into that role.
Shirelle Rosado
Does she incorporate toys?
Alexis Stoudemire
Yeah, a toy is always good. A toy is easy. That's an easy way to.
Ashley Nicole
That's a fun field trip.
Alexis Stoudemire
But I think if you really want to, like, turn it up, it's the role playing.
Shirelle Rosado
That's true.
Alexis Stoudemire
Yeah.
Ashley Nicole
And I would say, go, go. Like, it's communication. Like, what are you into? What do you like, talking to them? What's up? Like, what do you want to see? I like that. That you observed, obviously, that, you know.
Alexis Stoudemire
You'Re with your husband.
Shirelle Rosado
I know.
Alexis Stoudemire
It's surprised too, you know? Cause he's not expecting that shit. You know what I'm saying? He in there playing his game, and he going. And I walk in, that bitch booted and booted.
Ashley Nicole
She said, leave the boots on.
Alexis Stoudemire
You already knew what to do.
Ashley Nicole
Okay.
Alexis Stoudemire
So that's my advice. Okay.
Shirelle Rosado
I feel like you have to switch it up. You definitely have to switch it up. Because I feel like in relationships they can. The sex part, it seems like it becomes a check the box. Like, okay, let me roll over, hit it from the side, but not dead body.
Ashley Nicole
She said dead body.
Shirelle Rosado
They are good sometimes, but not all the time. You have to spice it up. Spice it up once a month, like go get. Take your man to the sex store with you and pick out some dildos. Pick out some vibrators. Pick it out and love it. Like, you know, when I was in a relationship, me and Chad used to go to the sex store, handcuff me, tie me up, blindfold me, smack my ass, choke me.
Alexis Stoudemire
Yeah.
Shirelle Rosado
Okay.
Ashley Nicole
See, somebody, they really try to put me out there.
Shirelle Rosado
Like it was just me.
Ashley Nicole
Okay. It's not just me.
Alexis Stoudemire
A little booty call.
Ashley Nicole
Oh, you said it's a little drop.
Alexis Stoudemire
I don't know.
Shirelle Rosado
No, I'm good. I'm good.
Alexis Stoudemire
Really hot over there.
Shirelle Rosado

Ashley Nicole
Yes.
Shirelle Rosado
And that plays a big role. People say sex don't, but it does.
