So we asked her to do the same.


## Transcript

This is the first and last time, I will discuss this, so your all time, you're getting exclusive. [ MUSIC ] [ LAUGH ] [ MUSIC ] Okay. What was going through my head, like, oh my gosh, you know, but it's so quick and you get back up. I believe the pants that I had on there was a loop or something on my heel got kinda caught in it so. So we just knew that, okay there's got to be more than one camera, there has to be but, when I saw it back, okay, oh my God It was just a one shot of the three of us, but that was ten years ago, I'm over it. Many great things have happened since then for me. So, but because of YouTube and stuff like that, it lives on forever.

That was an exciting day, I wanna say that was for, the release of our album Survivor, I don't care what you have to say, we knew we were fabulous, fierce, and that's all there's to it. I mean we were bright. And most of all I think it's been about our music that has gotten us to where we are. We thoroughly enjoyed those outfits, those were, I'm sorry, those were pretty cool. I am presenting, I'm co presenting with Jesse Metcalf. Really? The entire show, yes Yeah, really You sing? [ LAUGH ] She was an idiot, a bona fide idiot and I should've asked her well are you a reporter? Regardless of what people do or say about me, I am continually, I am always blessed.

There are no moments that you left out, but I'm sure someone, out of boredom or out of sheer fascination of myself, you're gonna find it. The fact that people sit and search for this stuff I am on your mind daily. So, I thank you so much for making me relevant every single day. I have a new campaign with Playtex where I get to talk about and spin for the best these amazing embarrassing moments. So I have you all to thank for that. Thank you so much. My accounts are bigger because of you. Thanks, [ SOUND ] shoes, clothes, houses, cars, blessings. Thank you.
