00:00So today is Super Bowl Sunday, so that's everything, right?
00:03That trumps everything.
00:04And before the concert and football game, I'm being honored by Essence for Black women in sports.
00:12For me, that is arguably the biggest honor because Essence is for us.
00:17And it's always beautiful to be celebrated by us.
00:19In a world where oftentimes we don't feel seen, I feel seen by you all.
00:25It's for us, it's about us, it's unapologetic, and look, Black is beautiful.
00:31I threw in this dress, you think it's okay?
00:33You look okay.
00:34I look okay.
00:35Decent.
00:35A little something I found.
00:37Because guess who's getting honored today?
00:39Me!
00:40Something about this award feels different in terms of getting it with my really good friend.
00:45I think this award is about two friends who have known each other for a very long time,
00:49who have supported each other, been through a lot publicly and privately,
00:53and we're being rewarded for just holding it down and holding each other up.
00:56You know what I mean?
00:57God is good.
00:58I feel good.
