Keeping it classy with lemonade-rita and a gold mumu. Sunday Funday was a success. If success = sitting around in a mumu all day doing nothing. #sundayfunday #keepingitclassy

Perks of being unemployed: 1. In my pj's all day 2. Plethora of selfies 3. Finally getting things done that I couldn't, while at that soul sucking shit house. Side note: it's straight 1997 up in here today. Dont walk awaaayy boooooyy... #boxbraids #unemployed #oddlyproductive #jade

Jeezy’s Juke Joint will always be considered one my career highlights.  It is one of those shows that you don’t understand the weight and value it has until you experience it.  It leaves you changed in ways you could never imagine a burlesque show could.  I say this as a performer and I’ve heard it echoed from audience members.  This show is important.

Black is Beautiful!

I was honored to be a part of this show. It really was life/game changing!  Black is GLORIOUS.
