She starred on the first two seasons of the reality show Flavor of Love (2006), where she was given the nickname "New York" by rapper Flavor Flav. Quotes When I began reality, I feel like I bought a certain type of energy that now we tend to contrive when we think about television. I think television used to be very stuffy, very, “I have to look perfect, be perfect and have the perfect answer.” I think when I stepped on the scene, I released a lot of that type of tension. It was like, You know what? Forget that. This is a reality show for me. It's okay to be yourself. Cry if you feel it! If you don't have the perfect answer, it's okay to say "I don't know." So it was taking a lot of the stuffiness out of what we used to [think] television was. That's how I approached reality and it worked for me. It later worked for a lot of other people too But it's funny because I don't really pursue and push really hard for the reality stuff. I'm not going to lie, I turn down reality shows if I feel like it's redundant, something I've done before, or something that just doesn't fit my image right now. But to be clear: I never really, really, really went away. And while all of that is very true, it feels amazing to come back with season 2 for it to be at VH1. I feel like season 2 felt so natural in comparison to season 1 when I was learning the ropes. And that now I have arrived, I really know how to host and conduct an interview correctly. I love that the youth knows who I am because of social media. I can't believe it when I see them use gifs of me on Flavor of Love. It's so surreal because that show was over 11 years ago. It keeps me current and the youth respect me. I’m constantly like “Wow, they want to see more of me,” and it's an amazing feeling. Every single guest that came on my platform to have brunch with me, there was a mutual respect because I didn't make anything up. They were there to tell their side of the story, and I think, personally, that's how all interviews should be conducted. I like to get the information straight from the horse's mouth.
