I will look at the value of our lives. You really have to learn what you’re good at and what you’re not good at, what you can handle and what you can’t handle. We have a tendency to forget. Even on ‘Fix My Life’, okay, you’ve done a story about mother-breakdown before. But each one has a different twist and a different role someone is playing in the same old story.

She recently commented on why she was working with Love & Hip Hop’s Benzino.

He is a member of the hip-hop community. Six million people watch “Love & Hip Hop Atlanta.” He has the ear and the minds of the young people. He made a commitment to rally the hip-hop community to change the message of the music, that it wouldn’t be so violent. I’m going to hold him to that.
