Some of your favorite comedians playing some of the most offensive and groundbreaking games. So listen to My Mama told me on iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts. We want to speak out and we want this to stop. Wow. Very powerful. I'm Ellie Flynn, an investigative journalist, and this is my journey deep into the adult entertainment industry. I really wanted to be a Playboy model. He was like, I'll take you to the top. I'll make you a star. To expose an alleged predator and the rotten industry he works in. It's honestly so much worse than I had anticipated. We're an army in comparison to him. From Novel Listen to the Bunny trap on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts. Hey, I'm Jay Shetty and my latest interview is with Wiz Khalifa. The craziest part of my life. I Can go from performing in front of 40,000 people to either being in a dressing room, being in a plane, or being back in a bed all by myself. He is a multiplatinum selling recording artist, mini mogul, and an actor, which I'm about the one, the only Wiz Khalifa listen to on purpose with Jay Shetty on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Wake that ass up early in the morning. The Breakfast Club. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Jessa, Laria, Charlamagne, Tha God. We are the Breakfast Club. We got a special guest in the building. That's right, we have Gisele Bryant. Welcome. Hi. How you feeling? Good morning. I'm feeling so good. I was gonna name all the stuff that. The Real Housewives of Potomac. I was gonna say Shady Podcast. The Reasonably Shady Podcast. The Reasonably Shady Pod with Robin Dixon. The new show, Love Hotel. You're doing so much. I'm doing a lot. You're making a lot of money out there. College tuition. Sure is. Yes. Well, you know, we got the dad for the college tuition. Thank God. Yes. Hallelujah. Praise him. Keep preaching, preacher, but keep preaching. Keep preaching. Preaching. Jesus. Yes, yes, yes. But, yeah, I'm doing a lot, and I'm, you know, it's good. I'm at a place where I can say no to things. I'm doing things that, like, make me happy. Yes. Now, how was the Real Housewives franchise? Right. Cause you see housewives being fired. You see franchises being canceled, rebooted. New York was canceled and rebooted. Yeah. I think Dubai has been canceled. Yes. And a lot of them, they're saying they're trash. So how has Potomac still been able to survive from all of this stuff that's been happening? All the trash? Pretty much. First, it's Potomac. Potomac. I'm sorry. Yes. It's hard. Like, the reality TV space is extremely difficult, and it's extremely. It's difficult to, like, have some longevity. You have to. For Housewives, it's not hard. You guys have to be friends. It's a show about friendship. So when you are trying to be toxic, when you're trying to say stuff to your castmates that's toxic, and it's at the point of no return. Then there goes the show. You can't come back from that. And no viewer wants to sit in week after week and look at a show that there's a bunch of women that hate each other. It becomes unreal. Hold on. I thought that's the whole point of Reality. That's what I was going to say. That's what I thought. I thought the conflict and the toxic was what got people in. But it's a fine line. It's like a dance you got to do. So it's lightweight toxicity. It's not hardcore toxicity. And then you got to be able to come back and laugh. You got to be able to come back and make fun of each other. And it's a girlfriend thing. You know, you have some toxic girlfriends. Right. And. But you know that y'all can go out on Saturday and have fun, but somebody's getting cussed out. Yeah. But it's okay because there's a love there and you can still, like, rise above it. Yeah. And then Sunday we can all talk about what happened. Yes. And that be it. Yeah. And then, you know, you have. It's a dynamic of, like. There's some girlfriends that are just like, the wild card, the drunk one, the one that's always going to, like, be reserved. It's the dynamic of the group, but it just can't get to a toxic place. Otherwise you're. Yes, you're gonna be canceled. Has it ever been a part or a time where you're like, I don't wanna do this reality TV shit? No more like, seriously, I'm about to throw in a towel, Jess, you about to get me fired? Of course. I always say, because reality TV is tough. If there is a point in a season in which you don't feel like you wanna quit, then you're not doing your job. You have to get to that point. And for instance, this season, I didn't feel it until the end, so. And I was checking myself with it because I was like, I've been kind of, like, feeling good. I've been in a great place. I don't feel like I want to quit. And then towards the end of season, I was like, yeah, there you go. There you go, there you go. But you have to give it all. And if you don't, then you shouldn't be doing it. And is that. So that's recipe to a good season for you to get that feeling. Oh. I was like, this. This season's gonna be fire. And it is too. You're the villain a lot in a lot of these. Like, you will go at people's personal lives, you'll go at dy, whatever, relationship, personal envy. So, you know, so we're friends envy. I'm just asking. I'm just asking because I watched the show with my wife and I'm like, That's not the Giselle I know. Oh, my God. I think that anything that is out there on social media is fair, is semi fair game. I'll never go after anybody's mother or child. But, yeah, if it's out there, let's talk about it. And that's like a good girlfriend relationship, right? Take the cameras away. If something's going on with my girlfriend, we gonna talk about it. I'm not gonna get together with her and act like it ain't happening. No, let's talk. And it does. And just because the cameras are there doesn't mean it's shady. It's how you handle the answer that you feel like is shady. Yeah. I don't think you a villain. I think you throw reasonable shade. Yes. Which is the podcast. Yes. Yeah. Yeah. You know, Robin's not with us this season, and so the reasonable of the show has been, like, you know, gone. But I've had to pick up that reasonable part. So you gotta do both. I had to do a little bit of both. How hard is that? It's difficult. It's not part of my personality. The thing I like about you, though, is. Cause it's hard to build a outside of the reality show. A lot of people that becomes their whole identity. That has not been the case for you. No. Because I leave it there, so. And that is when we're filming, I leave it there when I come home. I'm not trying to talk to my kids about it. I'm not trying to think about it. I look at it as it's on camera stuff. I did it on camera. Now that the cameras are gone, I'm done with it now. Does your kids ever try to talk to you about it? You got an older baby girl. Does she question you about some things that she'll see on there, or does that ever happen? Well, they probably won't mention it. And one of them is here today, but they're shadier than me. So if apple don't fall far, you know, their mama is me. Their father is who he is. They are some shady kids. So if I come home and tell them what's going on, they, you know, they get a kick out of it. Yeah. Yeah. So they. There are times when they're like, ma, you can't say that. But then there are times where they're like, good, I'm glad you checked her. Yeah, yeah. And how do you deal with the blogs? Right. Cause they attack everything that you do. Yes. The way you decorate your house, the way you dress. Good. She Gucci down. I don't see the problem. Like, I see her all the time. That's good. How does that happen? Talk about me, promote me. Go ahead. When people take stabs at you and talk about you when you know it's bs, right? I find it funny because that means if you're talking about the way that I dress or my house, whatever that means, you have nothing else. Right. And you're just now making up something. And, yeah, y'all keep talking about me, so it's like I don't even have to get out of bed in the morning, like, because y'all are talking about me. So I actually appreciate it. I like the haters. They're my friends. Now. You just did your first 21 questions live show in Chicago. Yes. How do you know? Well, there'll be. What? You mean how I know? I know everything, Jessica. Math. The news is real. Yes. Yes. Yes. Allegedly. Are there going to be other cities? Yes. So I'm planning that right now. Thank you so much for asking. I. Jess, that was something that I did on my own. So we've reasonably Shady has done live shows, but it's been me and Robin. So it was my first, you know, Beyonce by herself. It was my first breakout by myself. I was terrified. And I did it, and I felt like I killed it. Like, I felt like I can do this. I felt comfortable, which was. Personally, I needed that. So. Yes. I'm now planning the whole tour. So we're doing west coast first, and then we're gonna come through Charlotte, do a little Houston, Dallas, and then come back to New York. Atlanta. Yes. So February. Yeah. Now, why were you nervous? What made you nervous about it? Because I have a tendency to. Okay. To know me is to know that I'm very quiet and to myself, and I like to be home and mind my business. What? Yes. All those things. Oh, you said to know you. To know me. Okay. To know. Yes. So. And I have a tendency to kind of say things that's really on my mind and it could be a bit much. And Robin always kind of like, checks me in that. And she's just kind of like, whoa. Like, that was team too much. Like, calm down. So I didn't have that person. And just doing it by myself made me feel like a. I'm a mess up. And, you know, that's a scary thing. Like, and if you don't have anybody, like, to quote, catch you. So I did it. It went well. I was happy. And obviously, because you're adding cities, and I think that's good. So congratulations for doing that. Stepping on your own, doing that. How does it feel to have the house to yourself? Oh, my gosh. Cause you an empty nest in there. Yes. Okay, so let's talk about it. Cause you're not there. I'm nowhere near there. You are nowhere near there. Nowhere near. And neither are you. Okay, so let's talk about it. At first, I was, like, super sad. Cause I dropped off three kids in three cities in 72 hours. So it was like a thing. And mind you, all my kids go to hbcu. Shout out to the hbcu. Grace is going to Hampton. Hampton? No, no, no, no. Grace is going to Fam. Fam. The ones in Spelman. The ones at Spelman. And she's at Adora's. At Hampton. The real hu. The mastermind. The real hu. She's a freshman. She just finished. All of her. This is her first semester. She's rocking. What, a 3.9? 4 point? You better guess what we do. I know. That's right. That's how we do. She wearing red, though. No, don't get it twisted. Don't get it twisted. That's next year's conversation. Okay, I'm just. I'm just asking. Next year. All right, I'm sorry. Okay. So when I got home, I was super sad. Like, I was just like, what am I going to do? And then the next day I woke up and I was like, I'm walking around the house naked. I love that. It's so freeing. I get up when I want to. I don't have to go to the grocery store. I don't have to feed anybody. This is, like, amazing. And all I can. All I have to do is just think about me. And that's a great feeling to just think about yourself after you've been thinking about and planning around somebody else's life for a damn near 20 years. Like, it's a nice feeling. Were you ever. I don't know how to say it. Have you. How did you feel about them splitting up? Like, what? Adore going to Hampton and Angel and Spelman. So they both applied to both colleges and they both got in to Hampton and Spelman. So I was thinking they were just gonna make the decision, stay together. However, Angel's a better fit for Spelman. Adore is a better fit for Hampton. Adore at Spelman would kill her because it's just not a good fit for her. They're very quiet. They're very studious. They party, like, once a week. You know, she needed to party, like, three times a week. So she needed to get it in. Yeah. So I was concerned, but I knew that if they were gonna split up, they would thrive. And they are. They're thriving. Got it. How did that even feel, having all three of your kids go to college in hbcu? Hba. I got four daughters. I hope all of them go to college. But to have all end up going to college, I didn't realize that. It was like, I did a great job until people started telling me they're like, giselle, this is a flex. You got all three of your girls in college. A black college. I'm super proud of them. When you're in it, you don't realize what you're doing. And when I was in it, I didn't realize. Yeah, I'm making my life all about them. I'm making sure that they're doing all the extracurricular stuff and that they're expanding their horizons. So I felt like this is what I'm supposed to be doing, but now that I see the result of it, I'm like, damn, I did that thing. And I'm just proud of them because they are. You know, you want your kids to live their best life, but they really are. Yeah. So it's nice to see. And you didn't try to influence all of them to go to Hampton? I didn't, did I? Hmm. A little bit. Just a little. She said just a little bit. I mean, I wanted. Listen, their dad went to Morehouse, so he wanted one of them at Spelman. I wanted one of them at Hampton, and it worked out. I was gonna ask, when, you know, co parenting. How did y'all get to the place where y'all can co parent that way? Because y'all went through a divorce, and I'm sure it wasn't a nice divorce. How did y'all get to a point where y'all. Where? Of course. Of course. So when y'all got to a place where it was, where y'all both could really co parent and take all the emotions out of it, how did y'all get there, and when did that happen? I'm gonna be honest. It was a lot of me that was the problem. No, no, it was a lot of. I decided when they. Cause they. We got divorced. They were little. They were like two and three. And I decided. I got a. My attorney told me, you got a long road with this guy, so if you don't like him, if you think he's a fool, you gotta put that in the back Burner. Because it's about your kids. So I had to just let it go. Did he, throughout the course of their life, piss me off every other day? Yes. But I had to let it go. And I didn't want them to feel like because we're getting a divorce, they didn't have a family unit. So I would invite him to everything. We going on vacation, he can come, we doing dinners, he can come. And as long as he didn't, you know, clearly piss me off, then we can continue to do it. So yeah, I mean, it's tough, but you gotta just put your kids first. So when y'all went on vacation or you invited him, was he able to bring his new girl or were you able to. No, I mean, he could have, he just never did. Okay. Yeah. And in my vacations, I kept it about the kids. Gotcha. Okay. Cause I was gonna ask you what would have happened to her, but nevermind. Cause you changing. I mean, we didn't stay in the same room, so he might have had flown somebody out and I never saw her. But he kept it respectable in front of the kids for sure. Which I appreciate. I appreciate that. But no, it's not easy. And to Jamal's credit, because I had them the majority of the time, he let me do my thing with the girls. He wasn't like a helicopter parent and trying to question how I was parenting them. So that was. I appreciated that. Yeah, he let me do my thing. And with you being an open nester now, how dating? Because you said you're getting back to yourself, walk around the house naked and all that. I'm sorry, baby girl. Jess, that stud came out of you just now. You need to relax. Listen, I never even heard the term open nesta. Jesus. What is it? What? A empty nest. I like open nest. You like open nest. What do I open nest. Because the nest is open again. It's open again. So they FaceTime me all the time and they see I'm naked and they're like, please put some clothes on. So the whole walking around naked is a thing. It's a good thing. Because that makes you feel sexy. Yes. So yes, the landscape is coming, what, more than once a week? I'm sure landscaping did three times a week. But why stay back? I don't. In front the window in theaters. Right. So it's a good feeling. And yes, I have been dating, to answer your question, because I seen on the show you did speed dating with Ashley, who was now divorced. Yes, but. Yes. How was that? Are you still seeing the guy from the speed dating. Yeah, he's around. Okay. Yeah, there's several. You got a roster? Yes. It's about time. It's about that. Because I have the time now. Yeah. So if you had time for a roster, you'd have a roster. That's right. Yeah. And if you weren't in committed relationships, people, which all of you all are in. Yes, ma'am. Yes. Okay. Because I used to have a roster. Girl. I was up and down the street and all. Her name was Chris. Chris one, Chris two, Chris three, Chris four. No, I got tired, so I just settled down. Yeah. No, I feel like it's my time. I feel like I'm not going to settle into something unless it's really, really, really right. Yeah. And I earned that. Do you want to get married again? So I have said for, like, the longest time. Absolutely not. Like, for what. Like, what does that bring to me? But I might. I'm open. What changed your mind? What's his name? Mind your business. I'm open. Because I do feel like, you know, my kids have never seen, like, a straight up family unit, and they don't really understand the concept of what that means. So I. If I'm able to give that to them, and if the guy is amazing, then I will. And is that how. And there will be major prenups, trusts. All that handled. I was just gonna ask you about how you're moving forward with, like, how do you date now? Because with your last marriage, infidelity played a big part in it. So how are you with trusting who you're even dating, even if it's not exclusive? Like, are you scared? Like, no, not scared at all. I mean, I think all of us have trust issues just by nature. We black people like, who we trusting. Yeah. But at some point in time, you gotta let it go. And I'm okay with that. I'm okay with being with a man, and I can finally just, like, let it go. Yeah. Yeah. And I'm not the girl to, like. I don't know about you, Jess, but I don't, like, look through people's phones. And I'm not. I'm not, like, trying to find. I'm not trying to be FBI. I'm not trying to find out what you're doing. I actually just don't care. So if you're out here doing something, like, I'm the easiest girl to cheat on, because, like, I just. I won't. I won't. I'll be the last to know. Yeah. Yeah. So once you break the trust. It's a problem. How many kids would you dating? How are they with that? So they hate everybody, I'm sure. Do they? She said yes. There's nobody good enough for moms. But they. They feel like I just run through them. Damn. Not. I mean not like that was terrible to say. Do you know you grow? I felt like she run through them. Do you have a rafter that you run through? That's not the wrong thing. You grown? Let me clean that up. Okay. Do I run through them? Okay.

So they don't really even get invested unless they really see I'm invested. Yeah. How's it been doing the show without Robin? It was tough. It was tough. You know Robin, y'all know she's notoriously late. I was always thinking she was going to come into the scene just late per usual. She was always kind of like the voice of reason when people are going left and screaming at each other. She was always Looking at, like, the bigger picture, and we didn't have that, so. Yeah, I missed. I missed. Definitely. Mr. Yeah. Yeah. But she's just opened up a med spa in Colombia. You know the target in Columbia. Yeah. In that strip mall. I hate that I say the target in Columbia. You knew exactly what I know. Yeah, absolutely. Many targets in Colombia. Yeah. Okay, so it's in that. In that mall. Well, congratulations, definitely. It's called Glow 30. Yeah. So next time you're in town and it's like a subscription type of med spot. She's doing great. Yeah. Did you ever think about walking? Because she said she got fired. Did you ever think about walking when she got fired? I'm supposed to quit my job because you got fired. I know that's right. I know that's right. I'm supposed to fumble my bag. Did y'all have a convo about it, though? Sure, of course. Like, after she got the call, she immediately called me, but she kind of felt it coming, you know, unfortunately, she's in a situation in which she's with her guy Juan. But for whatever reason, people don't like that relationship. And so year after year, she would have to defend it. And it was kind of like everybody was tired of this. But, you know, you shouldn't have to defend the person that you have been married to that you love constantly. Like, let it be. So she's not. She's stress free right now. I'm the one stressed out because I'm still on the show. But she's, like, stress free and living her best life. Are you bringing those. The people that you're dating on the show or. No? What. What are you talking about? Don't make these hoes famous now. Don't make the hoes famous. I mean, he's gotta be. So I did the speed dating. Right? So let me tell you about the speed data. So he. We were going out a couple times, but then, you know, he really liked me just, like, a little too much, you know, he was like, telling me all the time, and that's kind of like the kiss of death. You don't like infection? I don't like infection. Affection. Oh, affection. No, we don't like infection. Of course you don't like infection. I do, but it's. It's a way that you did too much too quick. And it's like, you just tell me I'm great once, not like all day every day. Don't keep praising. Yes, yes. That is so confusing. That's crazy. I like the same thing. What if I really feel that way. What if I'm looking at you and I'm like, damn, your God bless me. Oh, my God. You can only say it one time. Once again, damn. I mean. Cause then it's. The challenge is over for me then, you know, I know. I got em. I got em. Yeah. What? I have nothing to look forward to now. What else? Yeah, so. Or tell me in other ways. Make it be a gift. Make it, you know, don't tell me with your words, tell me with action. Right? So I did something else in my life. I can say I did do a dating show. Right. So I told him about the show before I left. And that kind of like, threw him off. And he couldn't understand it. So he went, you thought he was the one. And you went, you go ahead and go on a date. Yeah, but I said, I. I already got this bag before I met you, so he should have understood. Yeah. And he did. But he went away for like three months. And then when all of a sudden he just, like, reappeared. What do you mean went away for three months? Jail or. No, went away, like, out of my life. I don't mess with those guys anymore. It's in my past, Right. So now he's back full throttle. He will, you know, he wants to do trips and he wants to do all the things. Cause now he's putting his full energy and attention in it, the way that I want to receive it. That motivated him. That motivated him. So every now and again, you just gotta, like, let him go. Right. So when you tell him that, when you say, look, man, you don't gotta tell me I'm great all the time. How does he react to that? Well, Giselle, I mean, I just want to express myself. I just want to let you know. And I mean, I haven't, like, you know, I haven't. I don't. I don't really meet women like you all the time. And it's just. Yeah, I know, playa. Like, it's just like, wow. You understand? I understand. You dating somebody, you want to tell her she beautiful, but you can only tell her once a year. I'm saying. But people always. I heard what she said. You said he should also show you. You don't gotta tell me. Show me what? Your actions. Yes, I can understand that. Yes. And my kids met him and they was throwing shade at him. So it's just like. Yeah, like I said, I need three months away from this. So you can't date anybody that's quote unquote, average or broke because you talking trips? You talking about, buy me expensive gifts? The daughter's like, nope, no. Okay. Buy me expensive gifts. Thank you. You put words in my mouth. All right, you ready? You don't have to. I'm not the Gucci Louis Prada girl. Like, you don't have to. You're not the Gucci print on. Yes, I have Gucci on right now. However, I bought this from myself. Okay. Right. I don't need that. But you can show me little. You get flowers. It doesn't have to be. Okay, so to answer your question, am I dating a man that's broke? No. That's not. Like, why would I do that? Cause you tried to get a politically correct answer. He's like, look, I'm not. I'm not. You cannot be broken a broke man. Okay? And it's not. And, Jess, you can appreciate this. You have worked hard for where you are, stability and financially. Yes. Right. As have I. Why? You don't need to take care of a man. No. No. So it's a no. And I don't know who you're with. Yeah, I'm not with somebody I got to take care of. Okay. Thank you. Now, I was in a relationship like that, a couple of relationships like that, so I definitely know what you mean. No, you. I don't want to date nobody broke, but. And I know that because I've dated broke people, so that's why I know that. Yeah, she probably never did. I've dated broke men and been up. You know what I mean? And tried to help and. Nah. No, no. What if he's loving a lot of work? What if he's a great man? Everything. He just don't have the. The finance, so. So that can only go so far, and I'm fine with that, but it can only go, like, in the bedroom and then, like, where are we going to dinner? No, you can't pay. Are we going on a trip? No, I can afford my tickets. You can't afford yours, and of course they love you. Yeah. So it's like, where. What are we doing here? Yeah, I got a dating show with love. Hotel. Right. Okay. Okay. Yes. Now, I wanted to ask about the. I know you still in a lawsuit with Eminem. Did that ever finish? Did whatever happened with that? Is it over yet? Y'all could probably appreciate this. Y'all probably know more than me. Okay, so y'all know a guy named Paul Rosenberg, Eminem's manager. M's manager. Yep. We deposed him. And from that. Okay. I can't say much from That I think it's almost over. It's almost over. So the. Our position was Eminem depose. Eminem's team had me and Robin deposed. So all is fair and love and war. We are going to depose Eminem. So when our side said, okay, we need to post him, all hell broke loose. They was like, oh, no, no, never. He doesn't even know anything about this. Well, if he doesn't know anything about this, why are we here? That's right, because his name is all in every headline. Right, but that's a lie. I mean, you had to have told him something. So because of that, I think that they have decided, okay, these girls aren't going away. And, like, we gotta settle. Well, patent and trade is gonna settle it or figure it out, because we're at the end of the road. All depositions have been done, all disclosures. All. All. And yes, we've spent a lot of money. I was gonna ask, how much did y'all pay in lawyer fees? It's still ongoing, but a lot. A lot. Yeah, he didn't. He don't own the word shady. You don't own the word shady. And what they don't. And what we know is there have been other companies, small companies, insignificant. Not insignificant, but small. Like upstarts that have had shady in their name. And they paid them off. They paid them all to go away, just to make it go away. We weren't going to do that. Or unless y'all didn't offer us something that could make us go away. But no, we're too far in now. And. No. It's a no. And I don't even get it. Like, why would you be doing this to us? Yeah, because we thank God we had the money, but let's just say we didn't. That's right. And we're just two black women out here just trying to make a doll out of 15 cents. Yeah. Yeah. Make sure you subscribe to the Reasonably Shady podcast on The Black Effect iHeartRadio podcast network, available everywhere you listen to podcasts. There you go. And we drop on Mondays real quick. What is the real beef with Karen and who? You, Karen and me? Yeah. Because, you know, one minute y'all throwing shade, next minute, y'all supporting each other. Is there a real beef? Is what I should have said, Is there a real beef? Any underlying issues? Truth be told, I think Kara and I, obviously, we started the show together. Yeah. Let's pray for Karen. Cause she's going to court next week. I think that in Karen's mind. She wanted to be whatever she wanted to be as far as the show was concerned. And she had a lot of people in her ear, and so I think that that caused her to, like, comfort me and comfort me. Yeah. But I've known Karen since before the show started. Like, we were friends. Okay. So I knew what she was doing sometimes on camera was just some nonsense. And I was gonna ride with you with this nonsense, but, I mean, we've been doing this for so long now. Like, at its core, we love each other. At its core, we root for each other. But she just comes for me. Cause she gets bored. Got it. Yeah. And I'm okay with that. I'll play with you. Oh, we know you play. Okay. I just had to. Except for myself. I watched the show. I. Myself. And Ashley is on the show. Yeah. Y'all been doing a lot of business together. Yes. Okay. Yes. And Ashley is wild. Yes. I don't like. How do y'all feel about public displays of affection? It depends. That's your boob. What's wrong with that? It depends on where we at sometimes. Like, you know, if we're going somewhere, if it's a date night and we're somewhere intimate, fine. But I don't really like to hold hands. I don't like to. Every now and then, you know, you kiss hands big as hell. That's why. Excuse me. I'm sorry. What you say? Nothing. Okay, so, yeah, I don't. It don't matter. I can have little, small ass hands. Don't hold them. Yes. You know, so I. I don't know. It depends. It just depends. I don't really like public affection. I'm a cancer person. Too much? Yes. I'm very affectionate. Oh, in public, yeah. Okay, so. But if. So I. I like that. If. But I've got to be, like, in a relationship or really with this guy. So to meet all these guys and all of a sudden, like. Like, they want to kiss me on camera. Like, it kind of freaks me out. Well, see, that's whack, because, like you said, you're not in a relationship. And these guys might be doing that just because you are Giselle. So it's like, let me get a look. They could be clout chasing. You don't know. You know what I mean? Yes. But other ladies on the show, they was cool with it. And so you'll see Gisele over here being approved. And you'll see pimps up, hoes down. Damn. So what's up with Mia Thornton? I heard you say that she's dead to you. And it's two part question. You said she's dead to you. And is it hard when people bring your children into reality show? Yeah. No. So the second part. Yes, it is disgusting when you talk about children. They didn't sign up for this. And children just off limits. That's like across the board. Children are off limits. So if you want to come for me, come for me. Like, you don't have to bring my children into this. So that for me is a point of no return. Like, she and I used to be friends off camera, but that's over. And I feel like you do it when you're desperate. You do stuff like that when you're desperate, when you ain't got no storyline, when you desperately want think that this is going to elevate you. And it didn't really work out that well for her. I mean, nobody's buying into that. Yeah. And she's got enough to worry about. She got a husband, she got a little boyfriend. She's. She'll know the paternity of her child. She. I mean, there's a lot going on for her. Wow. Jesus. So, yeah, she's dead to me still. Yes. She'll never be alive. Damn. Even if she apologized. So there was. So we're gonna let the show play out. But there was. She was given ample opportunity to apologize. But you know what she did? She doubled and tripled. Down on it. Yikes. Can't do that. All right. And nobody plays when it comes to their kids at all. Who playing about their kids? Nobody. Yeah. So if you think it and you gonna continue to do it, that means you really feel that way about my kids.
