Speaker 4 yeah.

Speaker 4 What are your thoughts on 50 and Big Meet?

Speaker 4 So, listen, 50 and

Speaker 4 50 and Big Meach,

Speaker 4 I feel like

Speaker 4 it was was business, right? So I understand what 50 did for his family.

Speaker 4 Yes, you put money in his family's pocket, but if Rick Ross is Big Meach's friend, like if they were friend, like they, like, Rick Ross, like, allegedly took care of this nigga while he was in jail, right?

Speaker 4 Took care of this man while he was in jail, you know, and before, like, they, they've been

Speaker 4 acquainted, you know.

Speaker 4 I feel like

Speaker 4 Big Meach and 50, they weren't friends. This is a business thing.
So, how can you you get upset with Lil Meach

Speaker 4 for something that Big Meet did? Right. You know what I mean? Yes, for sure.
That Lil Meach really wasn't even a part of.

Speaker 4 Now, no, I'm not too crazy about Lil Meach, but I actually did feel bad for him. I really didn't.
Because he got put in a bad spot. He really did get put in a bad spot.

Speaker 4 And honestly,

Speaker 4 the whole sending him to rehab thing, I just think that was, that was a lot then that could have been left out, you know, because we don't know what he was dealing with.

Speaker 4 Why he was, you know, drugging the the way he was or whatever, you know. And whether it was for fun or not, you know, you didn't put it out.
You didn't choose to put it out then.

Speaker 4 You know, you put it out now. Right.
When his dad is doing the thing that you don't like,

Speaker 4 you know. So, yeah, I do kind of feel bad for the brother.
In Two Minutes of Fame, Kiki Palmer, Kat Williams, DC, Young Fly, Sinbad, Dion Cole, Carlos Miller, Earthquake, and Ray Grant.

Speaker 4 What was that experience like for you being on set with all those guys? I actually didn't get to see a lot of them. I only got to be on set with Ron Rico Lee and Jay Farrell.
Okay.

Speaker 4 Funny personalities, them both. Now, I love Ron Rico Lee from Sister Sister.
Like, that man still look good to this day.

Speaker 4 You know, so I'm looking, I was like, okay, you know, it's just, it's just great, the nostalgia of actually like.

Speaker 4 Knowing who he is and it's like, oh my God, yo. And then Jay Ferrell, who's a funny, funny dude.
Man, Jay Ferrell, man. Oh, my God.

Speaker 4 Yeah, he's,

Speaker 4 that was nice. That was good.
I actually didn't even get to meet Kat

Speaker 4 on that set.

Speaker 4 I met Kat at Tycoon Weekend for 50 cents a couple years ago. But yeah, that was a good, it was good.
It was a good movie, too.

Speaker 4 I got to hook up to Master P, John Witherspoon, Cash Doll, Searle Underwood. I mean, another one, Young,

Speaker 4 DC, Jeezy, Webby, Romeo, Michael Blackson, B. Simone, April Jones.
What was that like? All the blacks.

Speaker 4 That movie was like a long ass. Skit.

Speaker 4 That's what I said. I said, why would you even touch? I got to hook up to, why would you touch the first one? Yo, it was nostalgic.
It was great.

Speaker 4 You could have just did like a skit movie, you know, but

Speaker 4 it was good being on set. But I'm gonna tell you one thing.
Hold on, let me take a sip. We'll be right back after this, guys.

Speaker 4 Now,

Speaker 4 the thing was,

Speaker 4 Master P,

Speaker 4 there was no, there was no script.

Speaker 4 I got there, right?

Speaker 4 Got on set.

Speaker 4 He said, Jess,

Speaker 9 do what you do.

Speaker 4 I said, what the hell is that? Like, what do you want me to do? Like, what, what does that mean? Right. He said, no, no, I got you being a cop.
Like, you, now, do what you do.

Speaker 4 I said, yo, what is the movie about? Right. I don't know.
Like, you know,

Speaker 4 what am I doing? Give me some type of leeway. He just wanted us to do what we do.
Now, some people may take that direction and be like, okay, great. Yeah, cool.
I'll do what I do.

Speaker 4 Not me.

Speaker 4 Because it's like, yo, I need to know. I'm an actress.
I need to know. Like, you don't just throw, this is not wildin' out.
You know what I mean? Right. I I know what to do.
Single ad live freelance.

Speaker 4 Yes, I know what to do. And I, yes, I can improv, but I need a basis.
Like, I need a foundation.

Speaker 4 There was no foundation to the movie. There was no foundation to the project.
Right. And while I love what Master P stands for,

Speaker 4 no shade to that. It's just,

Speaker 4 it was unorganized and it just was an unprofessional set, you know? Allegedly, you didn't get paid. Did you get your money? I didn't get paid for both scenes.
I did not.

Speaker 4 so how much how much were you promised thirty so i 15 000 per scene right they used one scene but i shot both so i should have got thirty thousand dollars it's not about what heirs i mean you know what premieres right it's about what i charged for that scene you know back in those times right and um

Speaker 4 i did i didn't get compensated for that and i kept uh have you talked to him No. And every time you come with the breakfast club, I ain't there.

Speaker 4 You need to

Speaker 4 make it sure you're there. I know.
Well, you need to make sure the money is there. Ain't no damn.
I need to make sure I'm there.

Speaker 4 Shoot. So, in these acting scenes, have any actors, because I remember we had Terry Cruz on.
He said to Sheena on her, he had a problem remembering his lines.

Speaker 4 And she said, Terry, you like to sing. Just sing them.

Speaker 4 And that's how he remembered his lines. So I was curious that when you're on set, has anybody given you advice to help you if there was something that you were struggling with? No, no.

Speaker 4 I honestly have never struggled with anything on set.

Speaker 4 No, I take my scripts very serious. I take every job I do very serious.

Speaker 4 What about Love and Hip Hop? You say you was on Love and Hip Hop Hollywood, right?

Speaker 4 Yeah. For one episode.

Speaker 4 That's it? Yeah, hell yeah. I wasn't about to be a part of that whole franchise cast running around.
You make money, though. Don't they pay good?

Speaker 4 Depending on who you are, yeah, they paid me good for that one day. You're damn right.
That's why I only got one day. And they said, look, we ain't got it.
I mean, not, we ain't got it.

Speaker 4 We ain't giving it for for all it. Come on, Jess.
No, but I'm like, all right, what is this one conversation? But that was very situational, though.

Speaker 4 I ended up on there because of something that went down between me, Monice, and April. Okay, that that that wasn't.
I was never going to be a part of Love and Hip Hop Hollywood.

Speaker 4 That ain't even none of my friends. You and April had a fallout.

Speaker 4 Um, it wasn't really a fallout, it was

Speaker 4 it was it was crazy. I, I had ended up, uh, me and me and April were friends, right? And then she

Speaker 4 we just stopped like she stopped communicating with me like and took like eight months off didn't talk to me for almost a whole damn year and expected for me to still pick right back up with you like nah like what you talking about well are you one of them friends that need to talk periodically hell no i'm not but this what you ain't gonna do you ain't gonna not deal with me.

Speaker 4 I forgot exactly why she stopped talking to me, but she stopped and took eight months off. And so what I did, which I shouldn't have done, it was bad, but we all do.

Speaker 4 Well, not we all, but you know, sometimes it happens.

Speaker 4 I was actually cool with Monice before. I never became friends with Monice, but I was cool with her first before, prior to meeting April.
And,

Speaker 4 you know, April was dating Fizz. Yeah.

Speaker 4 With O'Marianne.

Speaker 4 O'Marion's band member and, you know, one of his like good friends or whatever. Did you do something like that? Hell no, I ain't never did nothing like that.
No, but I said he did. I said, could you?

Speaker 4 Hell no. No, I can't do that.
Not both of them was in the band, and I got kids with one. And then now, you know, you go from being my brother to, oh,

Speaker 4 how are we going to do that? So you uncle stepped. I don't know.
Yeah. That was crazy.
And that was the thing. I didn't know any of that was going on until I was actually already her friend.

Speaker 4 So that's why I feel like you should be able to date friends to see.

Speaker 4 You know how you date somebody to see if you like them and you want to make them your significant other. I think you should have a dating period for people to be your friend too.

Speaker 4 because i want to see what you come with because your

Speaker 4 becomes my bulls and now people gonna think you already knew you knew that no i did not i don't but they think they do

Speaker 4 yeah yeah date oh you just co-signing it you think that's cool you ain't telling her that she shouldn't be dating her her kids uncle you didn't tell her that i'm like listen

Speaker 4 everybody is telling her that and she don't care right that's just what it is first it started off as a best friend and then it became something no and then it was you know but that's what happened.

Speaker 4 I ended up talking about her to Monice

Speaker 4 and Monice,

Speaker 4 no, it was a voice notes I sent Monice, right? And then once me and April had talked and we got reacquainted, I'm sitting there in the new house, right?

Speaker 4 Her and Fizz that they had lived together in that time, right? And we on live and then I see people commenting on her live, like,

Speaker 4 April, Monice just went live. You need to go see what she's talking about.
And so April was trying to ignore it. I'm the one like, no, let's go see what she's talking about then.

Speaker 4 Jesus Christ, we went to the girl page.

Speaker 4 Monisha's sitting there, nice and cute with her little glasses on, and you hear my voice. She just playing my voice notes back, and I'm saying

Speaker 4 everything.

Speaker 4 Oh, baby.

Speaker 4 You know you can't leave no voice message. Shit, I still be leaving voice messages.

Speaker 4 Yeah, but I'll, but you know, I'm reformed. Other than, hey, it's me.
Hey, hit me when you get it.

Speaker 4 That's all I got for you. That's what it is.
You know, I apologize. And so, so that's how I got it.
One, that's how I got on Love and Hip Hop Hollywood.

Speaker 4 She had, uh, you, you had, April was so like upset. She cried and everything, cried, cried, cried.
Fizz come through the door. He came through the door on the right part.
I was Tumbo him too.

Speaker 4 He is crying.

Speaker 4 And he was looking like what? And I was like, yeah. You ain't going to like that, bro.

Speaker 4 Yeah, I did it. It is what it is.
So then April in the bathroom. She wouldn't come out.
I said, all right, y'all, why don't we go? I, you know, I know the, it is what it is.

Speaker 4 We just made up, but apparently we done now.

Speaker 4 So I'm going to just go ahead and remove myself from y'all lives. I love y'all.
Peace out. Right.
As soon as I'm about to hit the door, Mona calls April. Should we send a camera crew?

Speaker 4 What's going on over there? I don't know how. Yeah, because she sit there.
She was watching the live. And then Monice must have called Mona.
However, that happened. April was like, wait, don't leave.

Speaker 4 I want you to shoot this episode and because this is great for tv

Speaker 4 it's like what

Speaker 4 so that's how i ended up doing that but child please i didn't care about it then i don't care about it now what have you learned about public dating since you become in the spotlight don't do it don't try to hold if you can hold on to a piece of privacy Do it.

Speaker 4 Because you know when you date publicly, you got to break up publicly.

Speaker 4 Yep. Yep.
or they will continue to attach you to your names. Yep, they're going to continue to attach you and ask you questions about people that you ain't attached to no more.

Speaker 4 And what about your partner? When they keep asking you about somebody you're not attached to, and then you, the person that you are attached to, do they feel some type of way about that?

Speaker 4 No, to be honest with you, Chris, his name is Chris, Christopher. Yo, he is so cool about that.
Right. Like,

Speaker 4 I remember when

Speaker 4 Country Wayne's

Speaker 4 stand-up had came out, right? And we were laying in the bed, we were going through Netflix, and we see the stand-up, and he's like, you won't watch it? And I'm like, no, I don't. And he was like, why?

Speaker 4 I never seen him do stand-up before. Let's just watch it.
Like, whatever. I was like, no, I don't want to watch it.
And he's like, all right, I respect it. Like, he's not.

Speaker 4 He's not what I thought it would be early on. I thought, you know, because you got to prepare yourself for things like that.

Speaker 4 When you know, you, you are dating somebody who's also in the industry as well, and somebody that has a platform, you know, you got to deal with that.

Speaker 4 You got to be ready for somebody to question you about that or the other person to feel insecure a little bit. That's not him at all.

Speaker 4 Cardi B and offset going at it online. Would you ever be in a situation where you would go at it with your baby's father? go back and forth like, I mean, the vitriol, I mean, going back and forth.

Speaker 4 And he's saying this and she's saying that.

Speaker 4 He's saying that you've witnessed old boy when you were pregnant and she like, and well, you know, she, I mean, Cardi, Cardi slick at the mouth.

Speaker 4 Slick, slick, slick, slick at the mouth, right? So, hmm,

Speaker 4 I would never do that. Now, I never did that.
No, me and Rome, we done had our days, our arguments. You know, my son's father, we,

Speaker 4 I've never gone back and forth with him online. Hell no.
Never, ever want to do that. Because at the end of the day, it's still us.
Yes. You know know what I mean?

Speaker 4 Like, we still got this child, you know? So I got to deal with you. You know, now,

Speaker 4 this is the thing.

Speaker 4 I think

Speaker 4 offset

Speaker 4 was doing him.

Speaker 4 He knew Cardi. He just knew that he had her.
He knew she would never leave. He knew he knew the things to do to get her back.

Speaker 4 Buy two Birkins. Buy three Birkins.
Buy a thousand.

Speaker 4 He might be good for like a couple weeks or a couple months and then you back out there doing what you're doing you know what i mean but then when she started moving on oh that baby couldn't take that yeah hmm now

Speaker 4 he he be upset he be upset when when

Speaker 4 even like that what they call him now they call him upset yeah absolutely he he be upset when

Speaker 4 when certain people take Cardi's side because I think he feels like it's a side y'all not seeing. Y'all ain't seeing this.
Y'all ain't saying, nah, but we're seeing what you've been doing.

Speaker 4 You know what I'm saying? We see you. And then we also hear Cardi tells us everything.
Everything. That's what I said.
She don't even need to be up here. She tells us everything anyway.

Speaker 4 You know what I'm saying? She everything,

Speaker 4 you know, like, and we see what you, and we see she also loves you. Right.
And she loved you through a lot of things that you put her through. Correct.
You know what I mean? Like, Cardi's a lover.

Speaker 4 We obviously know that. And so, you know, she just wanted to be happy.
And she tried to make that happen several times, but it don't always work out like that.

Speaker 4 Can social media ruin a relationship? Hell yeah.

Speaker 4 Yes, it can. Because then you don't live for the other person anymore.
You start living for the validation of others.

Speaker 4 You know what I mean? You start trying to pay attention to, you start trying to fit the mold of other people who

Speaker 4 don't even know what they got going on. You know what I mean? Like you're trying to please too many people.
You're trying to look perfect in front of too many people.

Speaker 4 That's why I will say this, and I don't care who get mad mad at me. I love Kirk and Rashida from Love and Hip Hop Atlanta.

Speaker 4 That is a perfect example of

Speaker 4 a marriage going through everything and a marriage standing every test and fighting through it and actually getting through it. And that's that's partnership right there.
That's work. How long

Speaker 4 in the relationship

Speaker 4 before we stop sending our representative out?

Speaker 4 Hmm.

Speaker 4 Is it

Speaker 4 six months in this year? Because we know we got to send a representative. Damn right.
Look, what you see is what you get now. Earlier on, look, I used to talk different.

Speaker 4 When I used to, like, I used to be like, yeah, like, so, like, what do you think?

Speaker 4 No, I've always, I've always listened to that song. Like, and then that would be my representative for the first 30 days.
Then I'd be like. What you talking about? Like, what you mean? I'm getting.

Speaker 4 No, I never said that. You know what I mean? Like, yes.
Yo, and then, but by the time the 30 days, the representative is gone, they already in love with me. So boom.
You know what I mean? Got it.

Speaker 4 But yeah. But you follow the false free test.
And that's right. That's why I had to stop doing that.
That's why I had to stop doing that. That ain't good for nobody.
Don't send a representative.

Speaker 4 What you see is what you get.

Speaker 4 They're going to love you for you or they not. And that's how you know.
I had Cheryl Underwood on a couple of weeks ago. And she said the man.

Speaker 4 No matter how much he makes, should be the head of the house. And the woman should be willing to follow his lead.
Where are you on that

Speaker 4 she said the the man the man whether or not he makes the most money the man is the head of the house okay

Speaker 4 i see that i see it i i get it i get it um

Speaker 4 i think everything is so different in these times yes um

Speaker 4 Everything is different. Women, y'all ain't buying that.

Speaker 4 See, I'm seeing, you know, you tried to come up with a way that you can get, that you can rock with that position, but you, you ain't there yet. Yeah.

Speaker 4 Now, listen, well, now I'm going to set it straight. Wow, I love to be led.

Speaker 4 I love a man that leads. You know, I love a man with a purpose.
You know what I mean? A man that I can learn from.

Speaker 4 I still

Speaker 4 see myself as equal in the household. I make decisions.
He makes decisions. You know what I mean? My fiancé, he makes decisions.
I make decisions. It's not,

Speaker 4 it's not him alone by himself.

Speaker 4 You know? Yes.

Speaker 4 And

Speaker 4 that's fine. You know, he has his own company and he has, he makes his own money and everything, but still.

Speaker 4 You got to have some safety. Yes.
Yes. And that's what it is.
Now, how old is Cheryl?

Speaker 4 Cheryl is probably younger than me.

Speaker 4 Yeah. Okay.
So. I understand,

Speaker 4 though. And in that era of her coming up and, you know,

Speaker 4 it's different. It's different times, you know, but things have evolved.
But see, Jess, the problem that I got with you, you women today

Speaker 4 y'all want tradition without doing traditional things y'all want to be flowers and y'all want this type of what your mom and your grandma what they experience but y'all don't do none of that

Speaker 4 y'all ain't cooking who

Speaker 4 y'all ain't cooking who y'all ain't oh you see what you're saying i want some say too i my grandma have no say in the house hmm She didn't? Hell no. That's crazy.

Speaker 4 You need to talk to your grandfather about that. No part of the party wasn't playing that.

Speaker 4 Now, now I get what you said. See, see, my grandmother shot her husband.
So I

Speaker 4 had a lot of faith. You're damn right.
She said, hold up. What you say it was?

Speaker 4 What it's going to be? All right. That's like shot him in his butt.
Don't play with it. All right.
So it's different over here. It is.
Right now.

Speaker 4 Now.

Speaker 4 I cook. I clean.
I take care of my children. Okay.
So does he. He cooks.
He cleans. He works.
He takes care of our children. He treats my son like that's his son.
And of course.

Speaker 4 And he take care of you.

Speaker 4 Yes, he does. And I take care of him right back.
Okay. You know, I scratch his back, scratch mine.

Speaker 4 I'm getting on my knees. He, I'm sitting on his face.

Speaker 4 And all of that.

Speaker 4 All of that.

Speaker 4 Please. That's right.
We both cleaning. We both don't.
That's why I said is we are both leading our house right now. He's leading me in other ways.
But

Speaker 4 in a household, it's both. So it's a 50, so this relationship.
King and a queen. 50-50.

Speaker 4 So you got say, he got say. That's right.

Speaker 4 That's right. That's right, man.
That's what I like. Yeah.

Speaker 4 How did you know Chris was the guy?

Speaker 4 Man.

Speaker 4 I'm going to be very honest with you. When I first met him, I was like, look,

Speaker 4 it's just going to be a nice little smash buddy. You know what I mean? When I met him, but

Speaker 4 it led to this where I am right now, man. I met him February 23rd, 2023.
I was just finishing up a co-hosting day at Breakfast Club. This is a year before I got the position.

Speaker 4 And I met him

Speaker 4 and he

Speaker 4 He's a truck driver. So he was on a stop and I went into a restaurant and I'm flirting with him and everything.
And he wasn't really paying me no mind. So I'm like, did he know who you were?

Speaker 4 Yeah, he did. But he thought that like he was like, I don't want to be a part of no roast battle.
Like, I don't even. That's the thing.
People are intimidated.

Speaker 4 Guys are intimidated by me because they feel like I, you know, try to clown them. That's right.
And so he just was like, oh, God, this girl. Nah.
So I asked him, did he want to drink?

Speaker 4 He's like, no, I don't drink. I said, okay, you want an edible? I was feeling good.
I was passing out, you know. And he was like, nah, I don't do any of that, you know?

Speaker 4 And I'm like, okay, cool so you're like ninja what you do yeah what do you do you know he was like i drink wine with dinner but i don't i'm just i'm like so why are you at the bar then why are you at the bar if you're not drinking he said because i'm grown i was like all right don't don't do too much

Speaker 4 don't get a loss don't get sassy on me you know so

Speaker 4 I'm drinking and everything. And then we talk and I'm still picking with him.
I made him laugh. And

Speaker 4 that's when he cracked. And then he started engaging more.
And I didn't realize how drunk I was until I got up and went to the bathroom. I was like, damn, I'm drunk.
I got to get out of here.

Speaker 4 So on my way back to the seat, he was like, hey, before I leave, I wanted to know if I could take you out. Would you let me take you out? And I was like, oh, now you want the number.

Speaker 4 And I'm all drunk. And I'm like, now you want the number with a band? And so I'm falling all around.
And he was like, he helped me and everything.

Speaker 4 And he was like, I'm going to just put my number in your phone because you probably ain't going to be able to do it. And then he took a couple of days, waited a few days.

Speaker 4 Then he hit me up and he asked me, could he take me out? And the first date we went to,

Speaker 4 I mean, first date we went on, I never left him since then. We never, ever.

Not if you know what you want.

Speaker 4 You ain't got to wait. That's what the old folks say.
That's what I'm saying. Don't jump right in bed and all of that.

Speaker 4 So let me ask you a question. I bet.

Speaker 4 You go to his house or he come to your house, or it's a neutral site hotel. See, I don't go to people's houses.

Speaker 4 They come to you? Never been a person to go to nobody house he come to you absolutely i will oh no i mean got to come no no no you wait you got to be neutral sight neutral sight because hey

Speaker 4 women sometimes are not as forthcoming as they need to be

Speaker 4 and so oh no i know i i left him two 20 minutes ago

Speaker 4 And I've been in situations and you know it's not comfortable.

Speaker 4 And so no i have not closed my eyes at a woman house in 30 33 years

Speaker 4 and ain't gonna i got you but that means something happened that you didn't get over yeah oh yeah i understand it i understand it now see chris did not make it to my house until like our third date right because all right so the first

Speaker 4 The first date, he planned at a nice, really, really nice restaurant, right? And he had like rented the room. It was a room.
Chris got bread like that? Excuse me? She.

Speaker 4 So he had rented like a private room. Yeah.
Some of those like five-star restaurants have private rooms. Yeah, I know that again.

Speaker 4 You know, people like me coming there, have parties and stuff like that. And we don't want to be with, you know, the other dining area.
So he taking pictures all night and time. Yeah.

Speaker 4 So he rented that.

Speaker 4 And he, it was just us in this whole big ass room in this nice hotel downtown Baltimore, right? So then he says,

Speaker 4 The conversation that this man had with me on the first date, he could have a conversation. That's what got me.
You asked me, how did you know he was the one? He could have a damn conversation.

Speaker 4 And he did not ask me about Jessilarius one time. He wanted to know who Jessica Robin Moore was.

Speaker 4 And to this day, that is who he was. That's what got you.
You know what I mean? Like, I love that because you got to be careful when you are a celebrity,

Speaker 4 you know, and you're trying to date.

Speaker 4 People you got to know like yo, what's your motive? Who are you? Are you just dating me because of who I am and what I can do for you? And I've done so much. I've taken care of some men.
Really?

Speaker 4 Yeah. Hell yeah.

Speaker 4 I've taken care of some men. But a man will let a woman take care of him? You're damn right these days.
And then begin to go on a podcast talking about y'all are all angry.

Speaker 4 That's because we're taking care of your ass.

Speaker 4 Should we be picking up where your mom left off? What's up with you? You know? So, but let me calm down because I'm reformed.

Speaker 4 All all right

Speaker 4 you know but yes he was able to have a conversation with me shannon like he was he got to know me he was talking about family values he was talking about how he had came up and i was so busy trying to get in this man drawers i'm

Speaker 4 i

Speaker 4 i was and it was fine and people say he look like britney grinder if but he a man right And Britney is very attractive too. I will say that.
But

Speaker 4 he's a man. So

Speaker 4 he was fine. And I didn't want the night to end.
And how about the restaurant?

Speaker 4 Clearly, it didn't.

Speaker 4 How about the restaurant was in a hotel? And so I was like, I'll be back.

Speaker 4 I got to go to the bathroom. Went and got a room real quick.
Came back.

Speaker 4 This man was acting like he ain't want to go up. I got something to do in the morning.
No, he had to work in the morning. I got work in the morning.
All right, well, you can leave from here.

Speaker 4 And that's what he did. And yep.
And I had to fly. I had a flight.
I had to work in the morning

Speaker 4 I had to fly out of Atlanta.

Speaker 4 Hold on. You did all that.

Speaker 4 That man had no idea that he was going to be able to meet somebody back in.

Speaker 4 No, I didn't.

Speaker 4 He sure didn't. He sure didn't.
He ran out, go get the condoms. He ran.
He's like, I got to go to the store. I said, listen, I keep those.

Speaker 4 What are we doing? I already knew. When you asked me, can you take me? I already knew.
So you knew you.

Speaker 4 Damn, Jess. That's right.

Speaker 4 Why we got to act. Why do women gotta act like they don't be wanting it? And why? Why? What?

Speaker 4 That means you're a hoe or something? That's what that means if you do it on the first date. Not if two years later,

Speaker 4 I'm popping a baby out and I'm here. You done propose.
Excuse me? I'm doing it right.

Speaker 4 Now, other times it didn't work.

Speaker 4 All right. I ain't going to lie.
Hey, you ain't back to a thousand.

Speaker 4 Hey, a baseball player. If you hit 300, you can make 700,000, 700 million.
It don't work all the time, but when it worked, it worked, and it did work this time. Let me ask you this.

Speaker 4 How long should a woman wait to be flown out?

Speaker 4 Well, now that's called trafficking, Shannon. So I don't know.

Speaker 4 I didn't realize. That's why I said, hold on, I was trafficked before.

Speaker 4 And I didn't know that. And when they were saying what the meaning was, I was like, oh, my God.
I'm a victim of trafficking. I just didn't even realize.

Speaker 4 But I think

Speaker 4 you don't wait. It's all on the man.
If the man will fly you out,

Speaker 4 fly there. Just make sure you can get your back just in case he don't fly.

Speaker 4 You got to be a round trip ticket. That's right.

Speaker 4 And it got to be a hotel. Okay,

Speaker 4 you're not going to his place off the rip, right? No. So it's got to be a hotel.
You got to have your own space. You know, you want to freshen up when you get there.
Boom, boom, boom. Absolutely.

Speaker 4 I'm getting off of a flight. I want to go and be able to prepare to see.
Do he need to pick you up or do he now have a car service to take you where you need to go?

Speaker 4 Does he need to pick you up or you need a service? Or does it matter? No, no, no, no, no. It depends.
It depends on who it is. Okay.

Speaker 4 It honestly depends on who it is and how bad you want to see this person.

Speaker 4 You don't want him in the airport, though. If he's no, but he's going to be somebody.
No, you can send a car. Okay.
No, send me a car. Okay.
You know, no, I don't expect for you to do that.

Speaker 4 Okay. Send me a car.
Have me

Speaker 4 to have me at a place, you know, have me pull up to my place, my hotel that you got. You know what I mean? But

Speaker 4 being fluid out is kind of tricky because you got to understand,

Speaker 4 ladies, these men are not obligated to do this. This is just something that they're doing.
And you're going to pay for it too, whether you're paying for it with your body

Speaker 4 or anything else. But you're paying for it.
And you must know that. So always still at least have your funds right so you don't be stranded.
Right. Because

Speaker 4 I know a lot of people that got flued out. and didn't want to sleep with somebody.

Speaker 4 And for that, they didn't get flued back.

Speaker 4 Hold on. You came out on the one-way?

Speaker 4 Not me. No.

Speaker 4 I know somebody. I know a lot of people.
You know, y'all know them too. But it's some people that I know that that didn't happen to.
I said, why would you let him fly you out? And why not?

Speaker 4 But you already knew what he wanted. Yeah, what you think.
When you got down there, you thought she was different. Y'all wasn't going to SeaWorld or Brooklyn.

Speaker 4 Damn well, he wasn't taking you to Universal Studios. Yeah.
Come on now. That's it.

Speaker 4 But

Speaker 4 it is what it is.

Speaker 4 What's the craziest craziest DM you ever received? Do you read, do you read? Do you read your DMs? Are you probably got it? Not now. Not now.
But you used to? I used to, yes.

Speaker 4 And it was crazy. Yeah.
You ever met up with somebody in your DM from your DM? No. No, I've never.
I've always been too scared to do something like that. I ain't gonna lie.
No.

Speaker 4 What if it was a celebrity?

Speaker 4 I know some celebrities that slid. Yeah, yeah.
Celebrities slid. Yeah, they did.

Speaker 4 And you like naive with you. Mm-mm.
Mm-mm. No.
Anything that I feel like can be used back, can be used later against me or whatever, I don't even indulge. Like, don't play with me.

Speaker 4 And you can be my celebrity crush, and I still won't even indulge. Nah.

Speaker 4 What if he, what, instead of sliding your DM, he'd see you out and say, you know, I got something for you. No, that's different.
Back then, that would have been something I probably would partake in.

Speaker 4 But no.

Speaker 4 Cheating. If that

Speaker 4 someone a partner cheats, is that automatically? That's the end of this relationship.

Speaker 4 Yeah, because

Speaker 4 cheating is intentional. You know,

Speaker 4 it's intentional, especially. Now, listen,

Speaker 4 I don't care about the past.

Speaker 4 If it's in the beginning now, right? Now, say you get in a relationship with somebody and

Speaker 4 later on, they admit to you that they were still involved with somebody when y'all became official. Okay.
But they did cut it off. Cut it off shortly after y'all became official.
That's different.

Speaker 4 All right, cool. I get it.
But not no one year into the relationship, you still got it. And you, no, no, no, no, no, no.
But it gets harder, though, Jess, when you got a kid. It does.

Speaker 4 But no, that goes apart of knowing what you want. Why are you in a relationship if you cheat? You know, you got to know what you want.
Even if you did feel like...

Speaker 4 Even if you did step out, you tested the waters and that meant, because sometimes people cheat and they get caught and that scares them straight. Yeah.
I it.

Speaker 4 But

Speaker 4 even that's tricky, yo, because if you had the balls to do it, you know what I mean? You bet you got the balls to do it again. Do it again.
You know what I mean? And then I took you back.

Speaker 4 And sometimes your kindness can be taken for weakness and you just,

Speaker 4 I don't know.

Speaker 4 Is it true a fan sent you a video of somebody that you were dating, cheating?

Speaker 4 Yes.

Speaker 4 This was. Did you think that that might be awful? Relationships ago.
Huh?

Speaker 4 Yeah.

Speaker 4 Yeah.

Speaker 4 Uh-huh.

Speaker 4 yeah,

Speaker 4 that was probably good. He was at the girl family cookout.
What? He was at her family cookout.

Speaker 4 I saw, I was like, no, I see

Speaker 4 the t-shirt. It was a family reunion cookout.
I said, damn, this ain't his family, yeah. And this ain't just somebody you cheating with.

Speaker 4 You're mighty comfortable with this. You're to be going to her family function.
It's a family reunion. That means you're introducing yourself.
She's introducing you. You gotta be.
It's crazy.

Speaker 4 So, nah, I'm done with that. Nah, we're done.
Wow. Yeah.

Speaker 4 What about friends? Where are you with friends into the relationship? How much do you tell your friends about your relationship? I don't tell my friends anything about my relationship now.

Speaker 4 But you used to? Yeah, of course. Yep, I did.
But you know what?

Speaker 4 What, you know, you got to be careful with doing that because, say, if you, you know, when there's static in your relationship, you go tell them that too. And now they're looking at him like, huh?

Speaker 4 When y'all get back on good terms, now you got to go tell him, no, we're back on good terms. Nah, it's too much back and forth.
So, no, I keep my love life very separate from my friends. I do.

Speaker 4 I tell them what they what they need to know

Speaker 4 why I'm smiling. They know why I'm smiling.
You know,

Speaker 4 they know what's up. Man, where are you on with this Neo? Neo got like three, four girlfriends.
He do. He do.
Listen, if it makes sense for them, it makes sense for them.

Speaker 4 I know I put him in jest with the mess the other day and I called three of the girls a clown. I was like, she a clown, she a clown, she a clown.
That's because it was funny to me, you know.

Speaker 4 But you know, it probably wasn't funny to them, you know. It was a couple of their friends was in the comments, like, why they gotta be clowns? If they like it, then they like,

Speaker 4 do you like it for your friend? Yeah, you know, and and

Speaker 4 listen, if you're taking care of all three and four of them, if ain't no strain on that man's make account, and and they like it, right, cool. That's what's it takes a special type of person.

Speaker 4 It certainly does. Everybody ain't cut out like that.
And it takes a special type of woman to

Speaker 4 talk about the woman. I ain't talking about the person.
How the hell are you going to walk up and kiss me and then you kiss this person?

Speaker 4 And then you can, I thought that only happened on flavor of love. Yeah, yeah.
Like, I didn't know that's like a real thing, but Polyamory is a real thing.

Speaker 4 Who came up with that term? Somebody who got hurt by one person and was like, I'm going to just deal with all y'all. You know, that's it.
I honestly feel like that's where polyamory came from.

Speaker 4 Somebody that got hurt. Right.
Like, I think all of of these things are man-made things. I don't think these are, like, this wasn't a term, you know what I'm saying?

Speaker 4 This wasn't since the beginning of time. Right.
You know, this is just something that this is a result of someone being hurt somewhere. Right.
Yeah. Do you want more kids? I do.

Speaker 4 How many kids you want? Two. I would.
Two more kids.

Speaker 4 I always wanted a big ass. Family.
I'm not going to lie.

Speaker 4 I always wanted to have at least like, and listen, I wanted to have like six boys, but you know, you don't get to pick you know the gender of your kids I mean they're trying to do that but you don't get to do that you know period so um

Speaker 4 but now it changed when I met Chris I was like I can see myself with a girl like I want to have a little girl and that'll be it no I actually want about two more kids but I'm 33 right you know and I and I I'm still in my career and I'm hitting my peak and I got work to do so you're gonna put the push the kids down the road a little bit yeah yep I think I have my next kid 35 if it don't work out like that, maybe 36, but I know I ain't having no more at the 40.

Speaker 4 What about marriage? You ready to get married now? Absolutely.

Speaker 4 Christopher

Speaker 4 proposed to me on Christmas.

Speaker 4 Yes, he did. You cry? Hell yeah, I cried.
I'm a big cry baby. I'm an Aquarius.
So we're very.

Speaker 4 No, we not. We air.

Speaker 4 Yeah, you thought Aquarius, because Aquarium is water. Yeah.
But no, air. We air.
I don't know why we air either.

Speaker 4 I thought I was.

Speaker 4 I ain't gonna lie. I thought I was water a couple of years ago, too, but I'm air, obviously.
So, yeah, y'all need me to live. Let me ask you this.
The first child, you weren't this just hilarious.

Speaker 4 The second child, you're a star. You got money.
Money's coming in. How different is it raising the second child as opposed to raising the first child with no money as opposed to having the money?

Speaker 4 Man, see, I only didn't,

Speaker 4 I didn't only not have money, I wasn't living in the hood. I was like, lights was off.
It was a lot of things I had to endure while raising my first child, my baby boy.

Speaker 4 He's seen me through a lot of things.

Speaker 4 But with Marley,

Speaker 4 my six-month-old, she,

Speaker 4 it is different. It's different.
You know, I have money to. move the way I want to move, to buy the things I want her to have.
You know, her dad has the money to buy things. You know what I mean?

Speaker 4 I have, we have a nanny, you know, which we are totally blessed with because it's my fiancé's mother.

Speaker 4 She moved home from Kuwait to help out with this baby. She knew that both of our careers demanded a lot of our time.

Speaker 4 And she came over to, she came home to help with that.

Speaker 4 So we take care of her too, you know. And

Speaker 4 although it is different, and yes, money, we got money and everything. You need a lot of patience

Speaker 4 to deal with children. And

Speaker 4 it may look like money is all you need to have uh stability in raising children but you need

Speaker 4 you need to be mentally sane you need to have it

Speaker 4 you don't need to have it all together but you need self-care self-love you need to be straight before you can care for somebody else you know what I mean and with

Speaker 4 me having businesses and I'm not just just hilarious. I'm not just just with the mess.
I got a lot going on. Right.
You know,

Speaker 4 I am absolutely grateful for my fiancé and his mother. You know what I mean? For the village.
It definitely takes a village. I ain't going to lie.
It was a little easier being broke.

Speaker 4 That's the easy part. It was a little easier being broke.

Speaker 4 But I wouldn't change anything.

Speaker 4 You think your son notices the difference between then and now?

Speaker 4 Yeah. Yeah.
Because he's 12. You know, he's 12 now and he's,

Speaker 4 he he remembers our lights being off. You know, he remembers having to

Speaker 4 spend

Speaker 4 all these days on on the porch, you know, playing with his cars until everybody else went in the house and then we had to go in the house. You know, we went in the house.

Speaker 4 I was determined to not let nobody see me and my son going into a dark house. So we made it to everybody on the block.
We went in their house and then we went in the house. We lit our candles.

Speaker 4 I went to steal all them candles from the Dollar Tree. Yep.
Yep. That was the perfect time to be a thief.
You know?

Speaker 4 And

Speaker 4 I lit candles and we would play games and stuff like that. But yeah, he remembers all that.
He knows that. And

Speaker 4 that's why he has the best of both worlds. He grew up like that.
And then now he gets to

Speaker 4 be, he gets to stream. He gets to have the latest this and latest that.
And while I still make him earn it, because that's how my parents did, I don't just give him everything.

Speaker 4 He's not an entitled kid. You know, he still lives a great life, the great life, and he knows the best of both worlds.
You know, right. You had your first child at 20.
This one's at what, 32? 32. Yes.

Speaker 4 That's a big,

Speaker 4 big gap. I don't know who the hell I thought I was starting over for real like that.
How different are you as a mom, 20 to the 32-year-old? Man, very, very different.

Speaker 4 My mom

Speaker 4 helped me raise my son between me and his dad. We were young, you know, and when I took off, it's just hilarious.
I had to do a lot of traveling. I wasn't able to take Ashton everywhere with me.

Speaker 4 So my mom played a big role

Speaker 4 in raising my son with me, like helping me, you know. She

Speaker 4 bared that, you know. And

Speaker 4 now

Speaker 4 it is different.

Speaker 4 She was, my son was living with my mother. Okay.

Speaker 4 And then

Speaker 4 fast forward now to me having a baby,

Speaker 4 I'm like, look, I want both of my children with me. It ain't gonna make sense.
And it's not fair for me to have a new baby. Right.

Speaker 4 And my first son ain't even living with me because I'm doing this and I'm doing that. I'm doing, no, I want my children with me.
You know, so my son is homeschooled now.

Speaker 4 And we live in Jersey because I do breakfast club in New York.

Speaker 4 And I got both of my kids. How did your mom take that though? Because she did not like it.
Because that's how we were born. I was raised by my grandparents.
Yeah.

Speaker 4 And then when my grandfather died, my mom and my grandma said, no.

Speaker 4 They're not going. Yeah.
Oh, man.

Speaker 4 I know, right? So you was your grandmother's baby. And that's exactly how my son was.
My mom was like, no, he, I don't think you should take him up to Jersey.

Speaker 4 I said, yeah, well, mom, it's time for me to be both, to be a mom to both of my kids. I want to be with both of them.
I'm a mom with children. Yeah.
I don't want just my baby.

Speaker 4 I think, were you thinking that, hold on, he might look and say, hold on, why did he get to go live with you and I didn't?

Speaker 4 Did that thought ever cross your mind? Hell yeah. And it is so many nights.

Speaker 4 I still feel guilty about it. Like, you know, and, and, and I didn't even, I feel guilty about it.
And it didn't even happen where I made him stay with my mom and then I'm raising Marley. Like, no.

Speaker 4 I didn't want that to happen.

Speaker 4 And my son, there has been times where Ashton wanted to be with me and he couldn't. He wanted to travel with me and he couldn't.

Speaker 4 He wanted to be on a road with me and he couldn't, you know, and it's like, no, it's time for my baby to be with me, both of them.

Speaker 4 I want, I want to wake up every day and be able to make them breakfast when I can, you know, sometimes it's me, sometimes it's Chris, sometimes it's the nanny, you know, sometimes it's my, my daughter's grandmother, but

Speaker 4 inclusive. I need that.
That family household that I grew up in. I want that.

Speaker 4 I think it's true

Speaker 4 your pregnancy, you got an epidural, but it wasn't the doctor that delivered, that gave you the epidural. epidural, it was a student, correct? Mm-hmm.
Uh, when I had my son, yep,

Speaker 4 and they let a student do it, and it messed me up, it messed my back up. I was having back problems up until like five years.
My son was five. And you sue? No, I did not.
I didn't know.

Speaker 4 I didn't have any education on it. I wasn't informed.
I wasn't, you know, I just knew I was in pain. I was in pain.
And I was like, give me the drugs, give me the epidural.

Speaker 4 And they came and they had a student perform it.

Speaker 4 And

Speaker 4 the girl was nervous. You can tell I saw her hand shaking even before she went around me to do it.
And I was like, oh, my God. And it's some of the most excruciating pain you can ever experience.

Speaker 4 Oh, that back ain't nothing to please. Yeah.
So I didn't do Epidoro. I had Marley natural.
I, yep, slid her right on out. These muscles get the...

Speaker 4 Yep. Right.
Now, is it true that

Speaker 4 your child's father, I mean,

Speaker 4 the second child's father is Hispanic? Yes, he is black and Hispanic. Yep, he is Mexican and black.
And probably some other stuff, too.

Speaker 4 Because I'm telling you, I see more than just Mexican and black over there. Right.
But let me ask you, so obviously the administration has this, you know, deportation and things going on right there.

Speaker 4 So how does he feel about that?

Speaker 4 Well,

Speaker 4 his mom is Mexican as hell. Okay.

Speaker 4 So, you know, I'll, you know.

Speaker 4 You make jokes, don't you? Yeah, yeah. Yeah.
You know, every day I come home, I knock on the door like, hey, it's ice. And she, she don't laugh, you know.

Speaker 4 Yeah, it's just to bring some comic relief. I just always want to be on our toes just in case they come past and it's really them.
You know, yeah.

Speaker 4 But the work-life balance. Now, like you said, you got a lot of projects, not just the breakfast club, not just your stand-up.
You got a lot of other things going on. Yes.
And your mom.

Speaker 4 And your fiancé.

Speaker 4 How's this work-life balance? Mom, fiancé, businesswoman, how does Jess juggle all that? I'm still trying to, Shane.

Speaker 4 I would be lying if I tried to,

Speaker 4 if I tried to make up something.

Speaker 4 I don't have it all figured out. It's still a balance with me.

Speaker 4 I'm still trying to figure out what that formula is so everybody can get the full time, you know, so my kids can get full time mommy. So my work can get full time, Jess Hilarious.

Speaker 4 So breakfast club can get full time

Speaker 4 just to come more, you know, just hilarious, just with the mess, whatever. You know, I'm still trying to do that.
I got to get up at 3.30, 3.45 every morning, do makeup. You know,

Speaker 4 what time do you get to the set? 5.30, 5.45. Because you're going at what.
We're going at 6 and we are done at 9 and then interviews after that.

Speaker 4 When the breakfast club, when Angela Lee, Angela Yee left, and they had all these other people coming in and they invited you to come in.

Speaker 4 Did you want the job? Did you think you were going to get the job? Yes. You wanted the job.
I did want it and

Speaker 4 I knew I was going to get it. I never even thought that I didn't have it.
I always knew. And it wasn't because of Charlemagne.
It wasn't because that I was so cool with Envy.

Speaker 4 It wasn't because, you know, it was the people.

Speaker 4 It was the way that I

Speaker 4 marketed Breakfast Club. Right.
That whole year,

Speaker 4 I had already treated it like it was my seat, the third seat. Like, I had already treated it like it was mine.
Even times where

Speaker 4 I knew they didn't have a host for that week. It was just going to be them too.
I'm like, yo, can I come up? Like, ain't nobody up there? Even at times when it was like

Speaker 4 other people up there, I'm like, yo, like, what y'all think if I did if I come up there too? Like, I don't want to step on anybody's toes, but like, this could be good. Like, let's, let's go up there.

Speaker 4 Me and Claudia Jordan, we, we host it together, you know, me and Kendra. She's also on radio.

Speaker 4 We did that together. Kendra G, Media, we also hosted together, you know, so I treated it very much like my seat before it even was officiated.

Speaker 4 You co-hosted The Real. How did that help? Did that help you in the role that you got with me? Yes, I actually loved doing The Real.
I loved all those ladies. I love them.
You know what I mean?

Speaker 4 That was a really good, that was my first time ever doing daytime talk. Okay.
You know, and I was like, oh, this is great. This is something that I

Speaker 4 really could see myself doing, you know? And yeah. So that was good.
That was a good segue into it. When you got the job, it was announced that you got the job.

Speaker 4 Ojo and I on Nightcap was talking about it. And I said some comments and it went viral.
And

Speaker 4 I said that, you know, hey, Ocho, she nice. She nice.
And I think Charlamagne and Envy, they really tried to play it up. So if I offended you, I want to take the time out to say I apologize.

Speaker 4 That was not my intent, but I was just like, yeah, she's a nice looking woman. She has a nice figure, Ocho, Joe, so forth and so on.
And, oh, he's 57 years old. I mean, he was this and that.

Speaker 4 And, you know, they tried to play it up. And so if I.
Like, I'm not in my 30s.

Speaker 4 Grown-ass woman. But see, and the thing is, a lot of times people

Speaker 4 being uncomfortable only happens when. the person that's saying something, the other person's not attracted to them or they feel some type of

Speaker 4 because so that's what and I didn't I don't want to I don't I didn't and I don't ever want someone to feel uncomfortable with my comments no So that's why I wanted to take the time to say,

Speaker 4 I apologize for what I said. Oh, no, it's okay.
And that means you got some good eyes on you.

Speaker 4 That's just all that means. You know, ain't nothing with it.

Speaker 4 What is this about Sexy Red says she don't fool with you?

Speaker 4 Sexy Red, she.

Speaker 4 Why you getting on everybody's bad side?

Speaker 4 Because I'm just with the mess. Why you stay in the mess?

Speaker 4 Well, look, the thing with Sexy Bread,

Speaker 4 right?

Speaker 4 She

Speaker 4 was pregnant at the time. She was very hormonal.
When she came in there, I already seen like the standoffishness that she was giving out or whatever. She said, Jess, I don't deal with you, Jess.

Speaker 4 I don't deal with you like that. Why she don't deal with you? And I asked, I said, why? I was trying to figure out for the first eight minutes of the damn interview.
What, what the hell? What? What?

Speaker 4 You know, because I'll say things about people and I forget, you know,

Speaker 4 because I've said so much, you know, I forget. So she couldn't even remember it, you know, and I'm going to put that on her pregnancy because when I had pregnancy brain, I couldn't remember anything.

Speaker 4 So I'm like, all right, I get it. Now,

Speaker 4 later on, if people watch the actual first 15 minutes or 10 minutes, not even, you know, into the interview. We made up.
We were cool. I said some things about her.
She didn't like it.

Speaker 4 And the reason why she didn't like it is because she did like Jess with the mess. She was like, and I like your videos too.
I'd laugh at you.

Speaker 4 Everybody cool with Jess with the mess until they end up in it you know and that's and and

Speaker 4 that's no shot to her because she was pregnant yeah and she was hormonal and just think about it every day you wake up you see some negativity about you online and you pregnant you know what i mean and it's like and and

Speaker 4 i've only talked about things that she put out there her brand is not It's not classy. You know, it's the total opposite.

Speaker 4 And I don't agree with everything that she does. And I told her that there as well.
I'm not going to agree with everything you do, sexy. You know what I mean?

Speaker 4 But I have a right to an opinion like everybody else. You know what I mean? And that's just what it is.
You know, so that's what it was. And she was cool.

Speaker 4 She ended up inviting me to the baby shower and everything. And she was cool after that.
But yeah, that's what it was. You know, the breakfast club checks hit different.
What you did?

Speaker 4 What's your first thing you bought with that money? That money is still in my account.

Speaker 4 That money is still that's an account I don't touch. Damn.
Mm-hmm.

Speaker 4 Them checks hit like that. They wasn't even trying to give me the money they gave me, but they had to come around.
They had to come around. So I'm like, come on, light this pie up under y'all butt.

Speaker 4 What about the purchase? You ain't purchased nothing like, okay, I'm going to get me a Birkin bag or I want to get this whip. I have six Birkins already, and that was before Breakfast Club.

Speaker 4 What's the most important thing that you've learned about money?

Speaker 4 Man, it comes and it goes and don't kill yourself trying to get it. Right.
Please don't. Because listen, I just had a crazy health scare, right? So

Speaker 4 I was eating lunch at a restaurant. I go home.
Hour later, I am like

Speaker 4 retching, throwing up. And then I had to, I start pulving real bad, coming out of both ends real bad.
This was happening for like two hours straight.

Speaker 4 Chris like, no, we're going to the emergency room. Now I can't stay in hospital.
So I'm like, yo, I think it's good. It's just a stomach bug.
He's like, yo, it's nothing else on your stomach.

Speaker 4 You're dehydrated. Like, and your body is forcing something out.
We need to go and see what it is. We go to the emergency room.
They put an IVM me.

Speaker 4 They tell me they run tests, MRI, sonogram, everything. I have gallstones or whatever, right? And so they're like, we're going to remove your gallbladder.

Speaker 4 Now, they tell you that that's a minor surgery but it feels very major yeah you wake up everything is minor on somebody else yeah that's why i'm like damn

Speaker 4 so look this how little i know about gallbladders i was like all right if y'all take this one the other one gonna be good right you only got one damn gallbladder i said oh lord dang so the thing is you can function without you can function without why they put it in there that's the thing why you born with it stupidy and i'm like damn but you got to change the diet and everything with that so

Speaker 4 but i'm saying all this to say i had shows that I had to do and I had to cancel five shows. I had to cancel

Speaker 4 six shows altogether. And I'm sitting there worrying and wondering and I'm hitting my manager and I'm hitting them talking to Chris about I'm like, yo, I'm losing money.

Speaker 4 And Chris is like, yo,

Speaker 4 that is everything that you can get back. You're sitting here.

Speaker 4 complaining about everything that you can get back.

Speaker 4 Look at your account. You're good.
Look at my account. We're good.
Like, yo, you got your family. We have children.
We, you're good.

Speaker 4 You still gonna be just a large after this? That's how you know this is you're you're just one person. Yeah.
And sometimes you need to sit down too.

Speaker 4 So just take this as a sign, like, you need to slow down because I was doing a lot and it is what it is, but I'm back good now.

Speaker 4 You mentioned that the breakfast club is that they wanted to pay you X and you wanted Y and Z.

Speaker 4 What have you learned about negotiating your worth?

Speaker 4 That

Speaker 4 if you stand 10 toes down, you will get it. And even if you don't.
Even if it's not from them. Mm-hmm.

Speaker 4 Even if you don't get it,

Speaker 4 you will get it. You will.
Because that's the point. Some people, if you let somebody pay you

Speaker 4 X, that's all you're going to be worth to them in their eyes. And then where it travels.
Well, if he got it for X, then I can get a fast. Yes.
And then now you're ex. You know what I mean? That's it.

Speaker 4 Nah, but if you

Speaker 4 from the jump,

Speaker 4 from the very beginning, demand what you're worth, that sets the tone for you. You know? And then that gives people the choice to say whether I want to.
I want to pay for that or not. Yep.

Speaker 4 If I want to invest this in her or not, fine, cool. Yeah, because you're going to see a return.

Speaker 4 So, what about us when you do? Do you share your salary? Do you share? I'm not saying direct numbers, but like with other women in the industry when they like do stand-up and you like, hey.

Speaker 4 Nope.

Speaker 4 No, I don't. I don't share.

Speaker 4 Because what I get,

Speaker 4 I earn that. I'm worth that.
Right. That may not be somebody else's worth.
You know what I mean? It may not be somebody may go back and be like, well, Jess got this.

Speaker 4 So I'm supposed to be, ah, nah, but see, you're not Jess. Right.

Speaker 4 So that's how that happened. Is it true you was robbed twice in Atlanta? Absolutely.
They robbed your house or they pulled up on you? My car.

Speaker 4 You was Jack? Yes. And the guy knew me from Wilding Out.
He's like, oh, you just, I know you got it. Yo, come on, yo, you got it.
And I said, all right, well, it's yours now.

Speaker 4 I said, just let me get my purse outside because they wanted to take my car.

Speaker 4 What type of wet would you have? It was an expedition, like a Ford expedition, big black truck. Yeah.
Right. And I'm like, all right, cool.
I said, yo,

Speaker 4 just let me get my purse out. He's like, all right, yeah, you got that.

Speaker 4 And he drove off with the car.

Speaker 4 Yeah. Did they find it? Yes.
It was actually Enterprise's car. It wasn't mine.
But

Speaker 4 they got it. They got it.
What happened the second time? Stripped, but they had it. Because that's what they do.
They'll steal the car and they'll strip it. Then they'll sell aparts real quick.

Speaker 4 But they found what was left of it, you know. So, what happened the second time?

Speaker 4 It was, I was

Speaker 4 at a

Speaker 4 restaurant, right, with somebody, and I, and they broke into

Speaker 4 his car and took my purse. I Chanel.

Speaker 4 Yeah. So I had to get everything back.
Mm-hmm.

Speaker 4 That was the first time. The second time was my rental car that they took.

Speaker 4 Crazy. I had to get the hell out of here.
You had a friend to steal from you, too, though. I had a few people stole from me.

Speaker 4 But you gave 100 bands. Was it a guy or girl that

Speaker 4 stole from you that you ended up giving money to? A girl.

Speaker 4 That was a girl. Y'all was cool? How long?

Speaker 4 Man, I've been knowing these people so damn long. I've been knowing,

Speaker 4 never say her name, but I knew her since I was nine or ten. What? Yeah, yo.
That's what I'm telling you. So y'all came up in the struggle together and she did that?

Speaker 4 When I was scamming, I was piecing her

Speaker 4 money. You know what I mean? And, you know, I, yeah, yeah.
You ain't put no paper on her? No.

Speaker 4 I put something else on her.

Speaker 4 I ain't no paper.

Speaker 4 Yeah, you bought that. Yeah, man.
Don't play with me like that, man. Nah, not what I'm already doing for you, man.

Speaker 4 And you start playing around with my money like that. Nah.

Speaker 4 How do you determine, how does Jess determine her circle? Hmm.

Speaker 4 Can anybody else get in Jess's circle? Hell no. I ain't even got a circle.
I got a triangle.

Speaker 4 I got a goddamn triangle. I done got rid of so many people in the last 60 days.
Last 60 days. 60 days? 60 days.
Yes.

Speaker 4 Because my problem is, Shannon, I like to put people on. Right.

Speaker 4 And that's not even supposed to be a problem, but it is a problem

Speaker 4 because you can't put everybody on because everybody ain't got the mindset to take off.

Speaker 4 Yo, I can give you the wings, but i can't fly you like you gotta fly you gotta do that you know what i mean like i i i try so hard to put all my people on and that is the problem and that's why it is no longer a circle it is a triangle do people look at your pocket do people count your pockets because they see you man you got are you in the private club you doing all this yes i know you got it come on now they try to yeah yeah absolutely i know you got it i know you got it yeah and i want to continue to have it yes i'm gonna keep it too.

Speaker 4 Yeah, exactly. I won't have it if I keep on giving it away.
So, you know, yeah. Girls trip.

Speaker 4 You do girls' trips?

Speaker 4 Are you used to? I used to until I was the one paying for a lot of it. I'm like, God damn.

Speaker 4 That's why I got a triangle.

Speaker 4 What's the max number of girls that should go on a girls trip? Is it two, three, four, five? Yo, to be honest with you, it should be, that should be very small. That should be

Speaker 4 a little note. And that's still too much.
That's still too much. There's too many personalities.
Now, everybody wants to do different things. Three.
Yeah. I would say three.
Damn. Yep.

Speaker 4 I would say three. Everybody got different,

Speaker 4 everybody got different personalities. You got the broke friend, you know, you know, and my brother has a joke about this.
But the broke friend, who you got to pay for. So she they on the scholarship.

Speaker 4 Yep. You know what I'm saying? But then she start acting like she paid her own way.
Like, hold up now. Yeah.
Cause you got to to eat tonight. Yeah.
And you will be hungry if you play with me.

Speaker 4 You know what I'm saying? And then, you know, you got the other friend who just come there and she wants to be the boss of everything. Y'all, we got to wake up at this.

Speaker 4 And we got the timeshare meeting. And we got to, you know.
And then, you know, you got the high friend, you know, that always want to smoke. You know, you got to smoke all the time when you get there.

Speaker 4 And then you got the whole friend. Yes.
Who had a friend. My brother always say, like, you got, how do you got a friend in Belize? You know,

Speaker 4 you know?

Speaker 4 So it is, it's

Speaker 4 just like you got the two and the few, you got the one that's that's not aesthetically pleasing, yep,

Speaker 4 and then why nobody wants to talk to me? Yeah, and then she always wants to be in the front of the pictures, yeah, get in the back.

Speaker 4 What are you talking about? You don't even have a vacation wig on, and you just, oh my god, this is your work wig. Why did you wear this to Belize?

Speaker 4 But yeah, if you could go on a girl trip with four celebrities, who would you go with?

Speaker 4 Oh my god, four celebrities. Hmm.

Speaker 4 That is so crazy. Oprah, Beyonce.

Speaker 4 No, I don't want. Who are you going with?

Speaker 4 Beyonce, too private. Oprah, too rich, and just no, too mighty.
No, we got to let our head down. Hey, Oprah.
I might go with Gail.

Speaker 4 Gail seemed like she had more fun. She had more fun than Oprah.
I don't know.

Speaker 4 Four celebrities.

Speaker 4 Yo.

Speaker 4 You ain't going with nobody up. Nope.

Speaker 4 I will say

Speaker 4 Will Farrell. Okay.

Speaker 4 Funny. Yeah.
So, yeah, you got to keep the

Speaker 4 Lady Gaga. Okay.
That's my girl. That's my girl.
And I just feel like we could shroom together. Yeah.
Okay.

Speaker 4 That's it.

Speaker 4 And I know that is not ideal. No.

Speaker 4 And people will be like, what? Will Farrell lady guy got?

Speaker 4 Yeah, I don't really want to hang out with you many people. I don't know what the hell y'all gonna be doing.
Yep. Let me ask you a question.
What about the Hollywood parties?

Speaker 4 The Hollywood parties have been a lot in the news lately.

Speaker 4 And everybody seems to know, there are a lot of people that talk about that they've been there, but man,

Speaker 4 that didn't go on when I was there. Maybe that was in another room.
Maybe that was in the house at the back, but I don't know nothing about it. Well, that was the party from 8 to 12.

Speaker 4 And then when y'all left, then from 12 to 5, it was another party. You know, that happens.
Really? Yeah, it'd be all types of parties. And you got the early party for the regulars.
Yeah.

Speaker 4 And then the late party for the freaky dickies. Well, how do they know who the freaky dickies are? Oh, you know.
Oh. They the people that's pulling up when you pulling off.
You know what I mean?

Speaker 4 That's how you. Oh, y'all here for the after part.
Okay. Yep.

Speaker 4 Do you ever worry about getting canceled? No, not now.

Speaker 4 At first, yeah. When cancel culture was first like developed or whatever, when at first, but no, not now.
Because what I find is when you get canceled, that's more attention on you. You know,

Speaker 4 they talk about you more. You stay in the blogs or whatever, you know.
So, and then that's the opportunity to push whatever you got going on.

Speaker 4 So, no, I don't care about that. I think I was the first person to be canceled, honestly.

Speaker 4 And I know Soldier Boy, shut up, but I really feel like, yeah, I think I was the first influencer to ever be canceled for something. Is there a joke you won't tell?

Speaker 4 Online, there is many jokes I won't tell. Right.
On the stage, yeah.

Speaker 4 You know who you paid to see. So

Speaker 4 you're offended sitting in my damn show.

Speaker 4 Has anyone checked you for talking about them on Jess with the Miss?

Speaker 4 No, Meek Mill got very upset with me. I roasted his real bad back when he couldn't dress.
He probably still can't, but

Speaker 4 he's a reformed guy. Yeah.
And I am reformed too.

Speaker 4 But no, I've never had any. I had people on follow me.
No, ain't nobody ever checked me.

Speaker 4 The closest that anybody has ever gotten to checking me

Speaker 4 is Sexy Red.

Speaker 4 When she came in there, she just was like, I don't have,

Speaker 4 I don't rock with you like that. Just like, yeah, that was the closest.
And that didn't, that wasn't even checking me. But that's the closest somebody has ever come was that sexy.

Speaker 4 You and Meek taking shots at each other on social media. Y'all cool? You good now? Yeah, cool.
Yep, I've seen him.

Speaker 4 Wallow and Gilly had

Speaker 4 an event last

Speaker 4 year. It was like a festival.

Speaker 4 This was right after a cheese. Cheese guy.
Yeah, it got shot. And they had an event and Gilly Fest.
That's what it was. I believe it was Gilly Fest.

Speaker 4 And I ran into Meek there and his braids, you you know, they were old. And, you know, I did tell him that.

Speaker 4 I said, now, come on now. You got a lot more money than you had when the braids were old back then.
Right. You know, he just laughed.
And we, you know, we laughed about it. But yeah, we made up.

Speaker 4 We're fine. I still joke about him, though.
He's very bullyable. Yeah.

Speaker 4 You know,

Speaker 4 he's very bullyable. Let me ask you this.

Speaker 4 Five years from now, 10 years from now, you sit back in that chair and we have this conversation.

Speaker 4 Where's Jess Hilarious? What is she doing?

Speaker 4 10 years from now,

Speaker 4 because just coming up in the next year, it's a lot.

Speaker 4 But

Speaker 4 what I want is my own network.

Speaker 4 I do want my own network. Or if it's not a network, it needs to be a channel,

Speaker 4 you know, where I

Speaker 4 can,

Speaker 4 where content lives, like funny content, drama. Like, you know, I just want my own channel.
You know, I want to give people a chance that

Speaker 4 are victims of gatekeeping. You know, I want to give other people like me a chance.
Yo, it's a lot of talent out there. It's a lot of people who don't have platforms that are thriving and flourishing.

Speaker 4 And I see these people all the time. And I'm like, yo, you will be good in a sitcom.
You will be good in a movie. You will be good, you know, having your own show, you know?

Speaker 4 So that's what I want to do. But, you know, I want to be

Speaker 4 a household name as an author 10 years, five, 10, you know, from now.

Speaker 4 Because I plan to, I'm working on a book now. So I plan to write more.

Speaker 4 You know, and I just,

Speaker 4 I just really want to make change in that, in that regard, giving people a chance who are victims of gatekeeping.

Speaker 4 Yeah, because it's a lot of them. Anything you want to promote?

Speaker 4 Absolutely. So

Speaker 4 I'm about to launch Messy Paws. It's a doggy clothe airline.
It's going to

Speaker 4 include toys, harnesses, leashes,

Speaker 4 doggy treats, and clothes, you know, for your dogs. I have a Frenchie.
His name is Bane. He's four years old.
And I'm a dog person anyway. So I love dogs.

Speaker 4 And that's where I actually thought of the idea. The idea actually came to me in the pandemic, but it was so many other things that I was doing in the pandemic.
I never got to launch it.

Speaker 4 So Messi Paws will be available very, very soon. And then I am rebranding my Messi Vision line.
I have an eyewear line.

Speaker 4 And I see you need some glasses because I'm getting tired of you wearing them same one, Shannon. So I'm going to do that.
No, I got like six pairs. Oh, you need 10.
You need four pair of messy vision.

Speaker 4 So we're going to drop the men's line soon. And, you know, I got you.
I'm going to send you some of you. And you're going to have to weigh them for an episode or two.

Speaker 4 You had me taste the shea. Yeah.
You know, and it was smooth, you know. And you're going to like these glasses, you know.

Speaker 4 So I'm doing the rebrand and I'm actually looking to collaborate with some influencers to push the brand because glasses are not only, you know, for prescription you know for people to see they're stylish and everything and uh my glasses are blue light they have the blue light feature because everybody be in their phones and a lot of people are messing up their eyes these days so my glasses they have the um the blue light and then um

Speaker 4 also

Speaker 4 uh shades are coming now so we all we have shades but we have more styles that we are dropping soon you know more styles more colors and everything like that also doctor who my fitness apparel line which i also launched in the pandemic when everybody couldn't afford the BBLs, we had to go to the old faithful waist trainer.

Speaker 4 Yeah. You know, and it's just fitness apparel, you know, compression and everything like that.

Speaker 4 And people actually buy them and wear them as regular outfits because they're stylish and yet they insinuate your curves and everything like that. So

Speaker 4 I have that, the fitness apparel. And then

Speaker 4 also, yes, I'm really, really happy about my book. So it's, it's a co-parenting book.
When is the book coming out?

Speaker 4 It will be out 2024.

Speaker 4 What year are we in? We're in five. Oh, yeah.
So it, because, child, I was raised to say four. Yeah, it's coming out 2025.
Yes. It's 25 now.
Yes, it is. Okay.
Yep, it is.

Speaker 4 But we're in the beginning, Shannon. Stay with me.
We're going, the book is going to drop at the end of the year. And

Speaker 4 it's a book about

Speaker 4 co-parenting therapy. A lot of people want to know how me and my son's dad got to the place that we are now.
And it's been a stigma on baby daddies and baby mamas or whatever, right?

Speaker 4 Especially in our community, right?

Speaker 4 It's very unusual to see a baby mom and a baby daddy get along. It's like, nah, like it, it can be a healthy environment, you know, because it's, it's about the kids.
Right.

Speaker 4 And you just, it's just about showing up, being the best versions of yourself, the best version of yourself for your child. So

Speaker 4 it's in story form. I tell the story from the beginning of me and Rome to how we ended up where we are now and raising our son.
So that's really, really good.

Speaker 4 That's that's going to be a really good thing because we need it. Definitely in our culture.
We definitely need this book. And it's the white people that can that can thrive from it too.

Speaker 4 Because I, you know, I'm from Baltimore City.

Speaker 4 The white people, just like the black people down South Baltimore, child, they be beefing with the baby daddies and stuff. You ever been to Baltimore? I used to play for the Ravens.

Speaker 4 No, no, have you been to Baltimore? I ain't saying not no, not. All right, then I know you used to play for the damn Ravens, but playing for the Ravens ain't like being in Baltimore.

Speaker 4 I've been you like 10, yeah, absolutely. But I know that because my dad is a fan of yours, I know.
So, but you ain't been to South Baltimore down Monroe Street with all the crab spots at and all that.

Speaker 4 Well, I mean, we used to walk to the stadium, so that's about it, uh, on the pier where uh the ESPN zone used to be.

Speaker 4 Okay, okay, yeah, yeah, yeah, all right, yeah, so no, you haven't been to Baltimore, so that's what that is, but yes, so that's that's what I got going on. I'm very, very happy, and then I'm also um
