I must start by saying I can’t believe I haven’t posted this interview yet. I honestly thought it was already posted.
With that being said this is the third part to my three part interview with BGC7 Nastasia Townsend. In part three Stasia talks a little bit about the reunion, her music, and Twitter beef with the girls post the reunion. Check out the interview above.
Local 206 Blogger Casey Carter took a little time to get to know me, and I have to say I was more then happy to interview with her. Check out the interview below and make sure you check out MissCaseyCarter.com:
1. What inspired you to start blogging?
To be honest it was a bad break up lol. I needed something to pass the time and keep my mind busy, I had no idea it would turn into all this.
2. What was/is your most embarrassing moment?
I would have to say back in like 2009 during the Star Bar days. I had WAY too much to drink and while I was dancing I fell flat on my ass twice in the middle of the dance floor. I didn’t care much then but then next morning I was like “OMG! did that really happen???”
3. What is your ultimate goal with blogging?
I want to make a brand. I don’t want to just have a normal “blog.” Everyone knows that blogs have a stigma of talking shit all the time and forever just pulling shit out of their asses for ratings, and I don’t want Naybesa.com to be associated with that. I want my blog to be seen as a trusted website and not a blog at the end of the day. I want that Perez Hilton, Necole Bitchie, Global Grind type of brand. I don’t want to just be known as a blogger, I want to be respected as Janay Naybesa, and for people to read what I write and know that its always coming from a good place. Matter of fact I’m already working on shirts and things of that sort.
4. Who was your funniest interview done with?
So far I would have to say Jean Grae she had me ROLLIN!
5. What do you do to let loose?
Smoke….works like a charm LOL.
6. Who do you see as your biggest competition as a blogger?
Well, there’s this girl, she lives here in Seattle and works at a shop called Kicks & Tees, I think her name is Casey Carter.
While at the Rich Kids Brand Fall Launch Party I ran into the women to inspired me to start blogging about NW artist and 206/253 events, Miss Casey Casey. If you live in the Town and your trying to get your music out there Casey Carter is the girl you want to get in contact with. Not only does she blog about NW artist, but she host a lot of major parties, host her own Mixtapes, she even recently interviewed Waka Flacka.
In the interview I asked Casey, why she focuses on NW music and events, how she got started, what she regrets in life plus I even got the scoop about her last name. Check out the interview above and make sure you check out MissCaseyCarter.com because if you think I’m trying to put Seattle on the map you haven’t seen what this girls ben up too.
Here is part 2 of my interview with Nastasia Townsend of Bad Girls Club season 7. In this video Stasi tells us why she didn’t let Shelly know she messed the beds, plus she elaborates on what really happened with the cake and why she looked so upset.
Check the interview above, and post your thoughts below!
I was lucky enough to get a interview with Nastasia Townsend aka Stasi of Bad Girls Club 7 New Orleans, and because the interview was 37 minutes long I decided to chop it up in three parts so it wont be a overload for you all. In part one we discuss:
*Why she told Judi she had to go in tonight’s episode
*What went threw her head the first time she approached Judi
*Why she yelled at Judi the first night
*Why she defends Judi
*Why she’s teaching Judi a lesson
*When the house dived first started and why
If you thought that Stasi had beef with Judi after you listen to this interview I’m more then positive you will change your mind. Even though it may have looked like Nastasia had issues with Judi during the first few episodes Nastasia tells me that wasn’t the case. “The first night I wasn’t trying to attack Judi at all” she says, turns out that Stasi was the main one trying to break up the fight until Judi got in her face, however Oxygen edits the show to where we don’t see it that way.
“It’s just an everyday hustle, I hate to use that word hustle but that’s the reality of being an independent artist. Hustling you’re moving, there’s no rulebook, there’s no guidelines, there’s no map of how to do what you’re doing.”
I had the amazing opportunity to do a phone interview with the Seattle native KimberlyNichole, which is an interview that when from your typical question and answer to a freak the questions lets just have girl talk situation.
During the interview we talked about Kimberly being on this years 2011 Bet Awards, why she left Seattle, what she wants people to learn about her when they listen to her album ‘The Yellow Brick Journey’ and my favorite part of the interview her natural hair.
Check out the interview above.
Why she left Seattle:
“I’ve always wanted to live in NY when I was a child in Seattle, and I kind of knew after I graduated high school that I wanted to expand my horizons and relocate. I went to two different places, I went to Atlanta and went to college, and then from Atlanta I went to New York”
The message she’s putting in her debut album ‘The Yellow Brick Journey’:
“I just want them to get a personal sense of where I come from, where I’ve been, my leaving Seattle, getting on this path and perusing music. And while on the path falling in love, falling out of love, struggling; I just want people to get a feel and a sense of my journey as it’s been up to date.”
KimberlyNichole admits to being “nervous” before her 2011 BET Awards performance:
