Thank you so much. I appreciate that What how hot was that what was your face doing when you read the script my mouth dropped It was actually the moment I said I don't know what that I can do this film if I'm being completely honest It was literally the moment that Tyler kept he texted me and he was like You got an answer for me and I was like can we talk of the phone? So of course he called me and We talked about it and I said I just I and I kept stuttering and I was like I he was like You don't know if you want to do it does it scare you and so Of course it did of course it did so I called a friend of mine And he said Kelly if it doesn't scare you what's the purpose like you you have to jump and you have to take a risk And he said it should scare you he was like so you should jump right into it And so I'm really grateful to him really grateful to Tyler Because they pushed me out of a comfort zone, but when I read that scene I said oh Lord like it just the room was really hot I was like god dog, but it was it was I didn't the funny thing is it was it was actually something else It was actually it was supposed to be like all of us like really engaging in each other Oh, I don't know I said I feel like it's something that like would really like you'd want to be a part of it more kind of if you're watching Yes, you know what I mean you're like what what am I missing or what am I possibly missing? You know what I mean? So when the collide happens it was just like more of like of You know what I mean? Okay, am I interpreting they're supposed to be a threesome? Yes It's way better this way. Yes, it's way better this way. Yes, yes, because we've seen and done that before Yeah, it is the eclipse that is so hot What conversations do you have to have in your real life about intimate scenes? I remember we were supposed to shoot it one day and I called my husband and he was like all right well, you know go go Do whatever you do So I wasn't like kill it that fun you know what I mean he knows and you know So when people start if they start even asking questions, he's like I know Yes, I know like that means the most to me and to him and to us as a unit is for him to be like yeah, no I saw it. Oh, I know I know I know I know but I hit that first It's all of that can you take inspiration from that into your own life? No, I was definitely bothered and ready to come home after that scene Definitely ready from because I was in Atlanta and I remember I called my husband and it was still early in LA And that was a lovely night That's great that's great um, I could ask for more details, but I'm gonna be classy Why is sex and being sexually charged up and connected something that is important? I mean to me like I feel like If I'm being very transparent like sometimes like when you're moving so fast like like you'll have a lol You know what I mean and then you need something to just like awaken you whether I'm Away and I'm working or I'm coming back home or I'm stressed You know what I mean? Sometimes stress and work days and Motherhood parent like everything gets in the way and then you forget about that and then you have to reconnect Here's what I think about now Here I am in a marriage and I love my mom got rest her soul, but she had four four or five Marriages, you know what I mean like I'm on one. I'd like to just stay at one personally so I have never seen marriage like Like Yeah, do you understand I'm saying like I've I've never seen it work I've I have Not watched it be Functional whatever that you know what I mean whatever functional maybe like it's it's been more so like dysfunctional and wanting to Get it right but in order to get it right I do make mistakes You know what I mean and it's learning about my mistakes and being able to move on whether it's Being selfish, you know what I mean and learning about like oh well you shouldn't have said that like that You shouldn't have done that like that or you handled that poorly and him being able to tell me about it Without my feelings being hurt and knowing that it's coming from a place of love And I think that that was the hardest place for me because I did want to be You know perfect especially because it's like if the world is doing this for me like I guess I should be But that's not the way it really is I'm I'm not perfect and I'm figuring out marriage and I'm figuring out how to be a wife And I'm figuring out how to be a mother all at the same time and having a career Really you're not gonna be perfect I had to finally like really come to grips with that myself and I think that what she said where she what did your friends say She wanted to not be put in a pedestal Brother husband and I and I that's brilliant Greatest thing I've heard all year Can you provide a PSA on kink not to say that you're kinky unless you want to somebody to identify as that But I'd say I'm a sensualist kink is definitely necessary when it needs to be there for sure to whether it's Strike a fire or To bring on a spontaneous moment Um, but I think it's nothing wrong with kink But I am a sensual Okay, you have to actually educate me right now because I can Feel what that word means, but I've actually never heard it before So sensualist is somebody whose senses have to be awakened in order for them to really come alive And I'm all about it smelling good the lights being low the music is right the way you touch the candle has like it's all about that And when it's like that, I don't know what version of me you gonna get But you'll get the best one And that that is real when all of my senses are awakened I'm scared of what I'm gonna do I can completely surrender Can I ask you a broad question? Yes What does sex mean to you oh my goodness? I'm I'm relearning sex to be completely transparent from just Stuff you know what I mean and it is sacred it's special it's intimate it's Electric it's fire it's Leaving me out of breath right now I'm I I lit it's it's fine. It's enjoyable. It's spontaneous. It's you know, it's Yeah Is mom I asked chat GPT how they would describe Kelly Roland Lord was chat GPT Kelly are you joking? No, I'm not I'm okay. I'm nice. I'm joking Okay, so chat GPT essentially is like Google AI so you can ask you things and rather than it giving you searches It provides answers for things and so it said that Kelly Roland is the beacon of talent Empowerment and grace in the entertainment industry and beyond Oh AI I think it me you a hard time. I'm sorry I wanted to read that in light of the log one of the film which I love Which is everyone is guilty of something was this movie a conscious choice To get people to see you more dimensionally. Yes, and no um, I remember Being afraid of that. Oh my god. It's so out of the grace and poise in this and that and then I thought to myself so I mean like you said one I have two kids. I'm grown and who is going to check me You know what I mean? I think that it's more so about being really like settled and confident in my sexual space and not letting anybody or society like try to put me in a place They've done that for so long and I feel like as women as black women We're in a space now to where we're showing the world what we own and that is our sexual There's going to be people who love the erotic genre category who are gonna watch it people who loves Tyler Perry Who are gonna watch it then there's people I think a lot of people who are not actually fans of either of those things but love you And they do maybe have more of a Puritan mindset when it comes to sex and this is going to bust them wide open. Oh good I want them to be bust wide open Bust it wide open go for it When people do have that immediate first reaction if you could put your hands on their shoulders and talk to them What would you say? Um, I think when I was younger it was You don't it's about like positions more so it was um if you ride your freak That is far from the truth If you ride your free You know what I mean I just got the wrong information I got all the wrong information and I thought that for for a long time I was so close minded So when you start having all these conversations and you're like really I think that no one should be close minded. I think that no one should judge I think that you know sex is as fun as you want it to be If you ride your freak which hey if that's where the bar is at it's a very long slippery slumber You're right then what's going to happen when you find out that You
