00:00Okay, well, it's funny, because you're moving into this new phase in your life, this new era in your life,
00:06and kind of breaking some news, you know, so to speak.
00:09What's happening?
00:12I'm learning how to whiffle.
00:15Could you imagine?
00:17You came here just for that.
00:20I did take a moonwalk class, and then I just still could never pick that up.
00:24So I could never moonwalk as a kid either.
00:25Ooh, that's a skill.
00:26A lot of people can't moonwalk.
00:27That's one of the skill cards.
00:27Ooh, I hope you don't get it.
00:30I hope I get it.
00:31A lot of things are happening.
00:32I have a very funny new project coming out, hopefully, top of the year of 2027.
00:36Okay.
00:37And I've been transitioning into just scripted acting.
00:42Oh, word?
00:43Yes, yes.
00:44It's been a passion of mine since I was, like, five years old, but never really had that much support
00:49around that career.
00:50So I was like, maybe I'll just do something else in the entertainment space.
00:53But then I was—
00:53Because that's why you moved to L.A.
00:55That's why I moved to L.A., yes.
00:56With to act.
00:56Which was a year before I went on the show.
00:58So, yes, it was partially to act and just to get into the industry.
01:02But I got a short film with an independent director, Milan, and NAACP Studios.
01:07So I did a short film with them my first year that I moved.
01:10And then I somehow ended up on Love Island.
01:12So then I kind of like—
01:13Somehow.
01:14Somehow.
01:15Craziest thing.
01:16So then I kind of just started, like, diving into whatever that.
01:20How did I get here?
01:22Literally.
01:22Like, oh, I woke up one day empty.
01:26But I never really wanted to broadcast that.
01:29Mm-hmm.
01:30That he knew.
01:31I told him off camera during the show.
01:33Oh, word.
01:33So that was something that we bonded off of acting.
01:35Oh, yeah.
01:36Yeah, I didn't want—I just didn't want to, like, you know, I don't know.
01:39I would have a lot of, like, a lot of stuff surrounding that.
01:43But, yeah, so now I'm like, God didn't put me in the place that I am now for me to
01:47not go full throttle in pursuing what I wanted to do.
01:51Hell, yeah.
01:51So, yeah, I mean, we've been in our classes.
01:53I've been, like, hardcore auditioning.
01:57That's so true.
01:57Yeah, it's been super fun, though.
01:59I'm like, I definitely made the right decision because I just feel so more like myself.
02:04Like, I'm doing what I'm supposed to be doing when I'm acting.
02:06Yes.
02:06And in the pursuit of the dream that's—your original dream.
02:10Yes.
02:10Right?
02:11Like, life will take you a whole bunch of different places.
02:12Oh, honey.
02:13And I'm literally—
02:14Like Fiji.
02:15Yeah, literally.
02:16I was going to say, I'm a great example of I let life take me wherever the hell it want
02:20to take me.
02:20Right.
02:20But, you know, sometimes you've got to reel it back and be like, okay, this was the goal.
02:25Let's not lose sight of that.
02:26Dope.
02:27Now, I mean, I guess I just—what you going to do if they say that they need you to whistle
02:30on set?
02:31Right.
02:32Um, y'all—they better crank up that damn whistle machine.
02:34Y'all saw—you couldn't tell who was whistling with me and her.
02:37I mean, acting?
02:39You better cut on the sound, girl.
02:41Sure.
02:42Okay, bring me on set.
02:42I'll whistle for this.
02:43Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
