<p>It was a reunion for Kandi Burruss and Tameka “Tiny” Cottle for the photoshoot of RollingOut Magazine. The young Divas who were members of the group Xscape have know moved on to bigger and better things. Kandi is featured on the Real Housewives of Atlanta and Tiny has her own show the Tiny and Toya reality show. Check out what they had to say in their interview:</p> <p>Why’d you guys decide to get into reality TV?Tiny: Well, we had been discussing doing a talk show at first, it was four of us and that idea went over well and then they came to me and said, ‘What about a reality show?’ So I considered [it], played around with it a little bit, and this is what happened.</p> <p>Kandi, you were initially supposed to be on Tiny’s show, right?Kandi: Basically, Tiny kind of put the whole reality thing in my head or whatever, but after that, things didn’t work out. They didn’t want me; they only wanted Tiny and Toya [laughing]. It’s all good though, because everything happens for a reason. The following week I found out they wanted me to be part of ‘The [Real] Housewives of Atlanta,’ [and] they reached out to me. It was just a blessing. Everything happens the way it’s supposed to. We both do our thing and we both support each other.It takes a lot of courage to have cameras taping you and people judging you.</p> <p>Do you struggle with being vulnerable on camera? Kandi: I feel very scared about how things are going to come off on-screen or what people are going to think of me after they watch the show. People always knew us for our music or songs we wrote for other people, you never really got to see me or my family, or how I am with my daughter. Now you get to see everything, so doing reality TV you’re putting people all the way into your life. But sometimes that can be a good thing, I think that was a very good thing with you, Tiny, because now everyone gets to see why T.I. loves her so much. You guys have been friends for years …</p> <p>Kandi: Yeah, since we were about 14. What’s the main thing that’s held your friendship together? Kandi: We’ve had a lot of ups and downs but we always stayed tight. We even exchanged blows one time, and we were laughing at each other five minutes later. I think we have the ability to say what we feel and then be done with it. We don’t carry it on — that’s a great quality to have. Some people aren’t like that, but Tiny is very, very good at forgiving stuff.</p> <p>Tiny: I’m too good … I’m gonna change it. How have you guys been able to maintain financial stability over the course of your professional careers? Kandi: I’m the money savvy one of us two. She likes to spend, I like to save [laughing].</p> <p> </p> <p>Post a Comment</p> <p> </p>
