00:00But like you said, we're just kind of scratching the surface
00:03on everything that goes on in the season and definitely took
00:06a unexpected turn with Kenya and everything going on with that.
00:10I know that you have said that you were disappointed
00:12about the way it goes down and it seems like next episode
00:15we're going to kind of get the answers.
00:17Do you feel like it was justified in having her
00:21kind of take a step back from the show?
00:23I didn't expect anything to happen, really.
00:30I just was personally like, you know, I felt like
00:35how can you respond?
00:36It was just beneath Kenya and that was where I left it.
00:40I really didn't know what to expect or if anything at all
00:44with what happened in that.
00:46Do I feel like it's justified?
00:48I don't really know.
00:48I don't know what, you know, what the network,
00:51what the investigation was.
00:53I don't know how they came to the choice that they did,
00:55but I know that losing Kenya didn't help us at all.
00:59It was definitely like we were literally the dream team.
01:03You know, Bravo spent a lot of time putting, you know,
01:06curating their vision for season 16 with exactly the cast
01:10that started this whole season 16 journey together.
01:13And it's just really unfortunate that the fans don't get to see
01:16it play out with that official cast that they put together
01:20that they took a while to find and get that right balance
01:23of the old and the new.
01:24And, you know, Kenya certainly is one of the most polarizing
01:27Housewives in the history of Housewives.
01:30So it's like, I keep saying, it's like, I felt like
01:32we were going to the Superbowl and when we got there,
01:34we lost one of our most valued players.
01:36So, you know, it was tough and it was a little sad
01:41to move on without her.
01:42But, you know, we had to continue making the show.
01:44And, you know, I hope that, you know, I love Kenya.
01:48I'm always going to love Kenya.
01:50I don't think we've seen the last of her.
01:53Yeah.
01:53Do you feel like Britney kind of had it out for her,
01:56especially like watching that the last episode?
01:58Like I said, I don't know what goes on this episode,
02:01but watching the last episode, it seems like she was kind
02:03of teeing her up a little bit.
02:05You know what?
02:06That was not the experience that I had with Britney.
02:10So, and again, I wasn't there in the times that I was around
02:13Britney and in Kenya.
02:16I didn't pick up that energy.
02:17But again, I wasn't there when, you know, everything happened.
02:21So I'm actually not really the right one to ask that question.
02:25I was still getting to know Brit.
02:27And the reason why I took the position I did with Kenya,
02:30because I know Kenya.
02:32I know Kenya.
02:32And I know, you know, I just held her to a standard
02:36that I hold for my friends.
02:37And I just felt like it was not good for Kenya.
02:40I just felt like she was bigger.
02:41And I felt like this was the way she responded
02:43was just beneath her.
02:45And, you know, I'm always going to, to want my friends to win.
02:49It really, what ended up happening ultimately was,
02:53was taking the focus off.
02:54What was the most important part of the event was
02:58all her incredible hard work to, you know, bring this,
03:02this Kenya Moore haircare salon to fruition.
03:05And I know how hard she's been working on that.
03:07And, and what, you know, this is like a lifelong dream of hers.
03:10And it's just really unfortunate that it was overshadowed
03:13by the events that took place.
