00:00It's EssenceFestival.com, and we're here with Erica Campbell.
00:08So glad to have you back. You tore down Family Day yesterday.
00:11What was the energy like there?
00:13It was great. Even though it was hot, I could still see people singing the music and embracing it.
00:18You know, I always want to inspire and I'm blessed and direct people to God
00:21and let them know that there is help and there is hope.
00:23And the love I gave them, they gave right back to me.
00:26Essence Fest is all about fashion. You look fly today.
00:29Yesterday, I loved your disco pants.
00:31So how do you go about picking out the right outfit for something as big as this like Essence Festival?
00:36Oh, me and Gugu had like a whole two-week process.
00:38So we started talking about a month and then about two weeks before she brought some things over.
00:43I tried it on. I was like, I'm not sure.
00:45She brought some other stuff. She brought me a dress with a back out.
00:47I'm debating on whether I'm going to do it. I may do that tomorrow night. I'm not sure.
00:51But yeah, you know, it's about feeling sexy and comfortable and being beautiful but tasteful all at the same time.
00:58You've got to represent down here at Essence Fest so you can't play with it.
01:01So I'm enjoying it. Yeah, those shiny pants yesterday, mmm, I liked them.
01:06Talk about fashion. I asked Gugu if she brought her purple because Prince requested everybody wear purple tonight.
01:11Are you going to follow the rules or you...
01:13No, I got to go shopping. When I finish talking to you, I'm going to the mall. I need purple.
01:18Purple.
