00:05I've been following Isa since college my friend he literally told me like you
00:10should watch awkward black girl on YouTube because that's you and I was
00:14like okay so I was fortunate enough to be cast in the background of insecure
00:20catch me actually go back and watch a couple of episodes just catch me in the
00:24back eating a salad probably see the back of my head he said oh and if you

00:38videos so the first look is very early you saw like our YouTube days she was
00:46very very self-produced and very up-and-coming very new and fresh so
00:52that reflected in how she wore her makeup and everything like that because I
00:54don't think it was about that was about the work

01:22same you don't care about me
01:26a lot of D yeah
01:27I don't know what's happening I'm like basically spray painting your hair
01:42for this look you can tell that she was very confident in what her point of view
01:46was and what she was trying to tell people and that says a lot in what she was
01:50wearing this was the moment that everything was happening everything that she
01:53really worked for was coming into place
02:05whoa my hair looks so different color
02:08I like it though it's so like different and more like glamorous I feel like oh I can walk on

02:43her game
