Kel Mitchell & Kenan Thompson's Fallout | CLUB SHAY SHAY

and a lot of people talk about um you know Keenan and I as far as like the split between the Keenan and Kell show this is where it started and I think that uh even Keenan didn't really know either what was going on uh because I didn't share uh what was going on with me uh and the headwriter of of the show when that happened and uh and what was going on and I didn't trust anybody at that moment either yeah yeah and I remember uh the head who Dasher that's who I was talking about who was wrote on the show um at that time uh he was also doing a uh a movie I think believe it was Liar Liar with a man not Liar Liar it was um oh man I'm trying to remember the name of it it wasn't Li liar uh but it was a man the bind was supposed to was in the movie yeah and it was about a kid the lies and all stuff like that um but they wanted me to actually be in that movie at first you know and I was like yo we should put Keenan in it that would be dope to pck and we both do that because we had a three piter deal at Paramount when we were doing that but they decided that uh you know they didn't want they didn't do the other movies we just did good burger and but but I was doing mystery man so they were like yo you should be on that and I was like oh yeah but let's pin and they were like no I think this is just be with you and I'm like no but I I feel like you know we got the show let's do it and also to the writer is the same writer I had fallen out with you know what I mean that's in the room and so I'm is like all right you know what I mean I want to do that and I remember I left out of the room uh and you know all these producers excited about doing this movie right and I remember I left out of that room that situation and then I saw uh Keenan and then I saw Nick and they were like yeah we heard about that meeting they just started laughing right and for me uh I was just I felt like yo yeah I was in there fighting for you you know what I mean and that kind of hurt at that moment thing about me was that I didn't relationship is very important mhm and you need to let people know how you feel at that time I there was really wasn't doing that there was a trus thing you know what I mean I had already been through death you know within my family in Chicago and all these things were going on at this point uh both of my uncles was murdered uh I had a friend that was murdered that we talked about all this happened around the same time and so there wasn't any uh no I wasn't seeing any therapist or anything of that nature I was just working constantly with working on the show um and within doing that and then at that time too I ended up uh marrying uh my ex-wife you know uh because we had another baby we had the baby right we had the abortion but then we had a baby and uh she ended up telling me that the baby that was aborted wasn't mine and So within that process uh you are immediately married within a lie already yeah you know what I'm saying so the so the marriage was never same after that was it no it was this is this is at the beginning you know what I'm saying it's right at the beginning and So within that process she probably should have kept that to herself well you know I'm glad she didn't and So within that process with that being known it was like yo and now I'm on TV all this I'm still on TV all this and I don't have time to really process that and she almost you know with even in being you know the pregnancy uh she almost died within the pregnancy so that was a hard time too and I remember the uh some of the writers coming to the Set uh to the hospital and they were like bringing presents and I'm thinking like oh yeah cool thank you and then they were like yo when can you be back on set and it was just like you see what I'm dealing with yeah we see what I'm dealing with but you know no no shout out to you know no no shade to them they were just they were doing what they were told as far as a job to see if kale can get be back on set um and I was the one that you know ended up getting someone pregnant you know around that time but uh I'm just setting up so you understand what was really going when we get to 2004 you know what I mean that in that process so uh now knowing that this you know the kid isn't you know is mine and then now uh leaving the show you know on Nickelodeon and then I had Mr Man this Big Show and I'm thinking like oh yeah that's going to be it you know what I mean and learning within that process too where it was like hey well no I don't want to renew on all that Keenan n Kel I'm good you know what I'm saying and I already know know what's going on as far as what's happening within this realm of what's going on with the show behind the scenes and what's going on with me and uh I was just like yo I'm ready to leave anyway and then mystery man didn't do as well as we thought it was you know what I mean as we thought it was going to do uh within that process and then just navigating uh through that now being a father and here's the thing about it is that the reason I didn't have anybody relate to because I was the first one out of the entire cast to be married to have a house uh you know have kids and Keenan Nick none of them could relate to that they were still being kids and also too there was this process of I I got it all together I already know what I'm doing you know what I mean and that's what I was doing you know what I mean to me it was like I got it I got it I can handle this I can handle this no you couldn't you you you can't handle this within the Starbuck CU you're really going through something that is really deep and you need to let people know and let people know how you feeling let people know what's on your heart what's really going on but I kept it in and was like I can handle this yeah you mentioned um a lot of some of the Kids actors and actresses that you around um life had gotten so much so overbearing that they couldn't didn't feel they could go on yeah you see you mention Amanda bin and you see her in conservative ship and you see her dealing with her issues how difficult qu is that for you knowing what you went through yeah yeah and seeing her go through something very similar um it's deep I mean um when I was at the um Su hotel in Canada where I was going to end my life at that moment uh on the other side of a balcony um Amanda was there Amanda was shooting a show a movie where she played a played a guy that that that movie um and Keenan was in town too as well we hadn't talked in a while he was doing snakes on the plane okay uh and no one knew that I was going through uh with my ex you know we had very toxic relationship you know what I mean as you can imagine from the start of it all it's hard to reveal something after a lie if it was founded on a lie it's going to fall eventually yeah exactly exactly and it went from bad to worse you know with the things that were being revealed you know um and it was a lot you know it was other times uh she had gotten pregnant other things and it just got to a point she had gotten pregnant again were y'all together yeah and it wasn't you no it was me a come on it wasn't me it wasn't and you stuck around yeah I stuck around I stuck around but here's the thing here's the thing uh these were things that were being revealed you know she telling you this how did you find how did you find this out I want to know how you found this out you read a letter you got through the phone okay all right so how that one went um there was a thing where um we weren't um having sex anymore and we weren't doing anything anymore just because no you weren't having sex clearly she was yeah it's just because because of we knew I knew what was going on right and uh I was like yo what is even happening you're not coming home you're not doing all these different things and y'all man you not coming home your yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah but then this was you know back then we praying for now this all good yeah but this is with the process of what I was going through and so now as this is going on um there was a a Time get some more soda I need something stronger than soda you telling me that right here go ahead brother I mean you have one you bed that but that wasn't yours she told you you didn't know you have one of your own and she Yeah well yeah there was a there was a situation uh where there was a guy you know and um I had a feeling you know what I mean that she was you know him talking to somebody it was one of her friends that used to come over right and you know I was working a lot you know what I mean so one of one of those situations and so uh I was dropping off the kids you know and you know didn't go to work and you know how I go and so one day I decided where I was like you I'm going to take the car and just kind of like go searching where she might be cuz she don't be come home and so uh I got in the whip went driving around saw her whip L different you know and uh I saw it and I said the hotel I was like yo okay this a car at the hotel I go to the lobby you know what I mean to go walk into to the lobby uh turns out dude just come walking down the lobby about to go to the car you know my car and then she was driving you know what I mean I'm like oh okay what's up take me upstairs take me let's go to the elevator let's go together you know what I mean and he's like okay cool you what I mean we go up I'm not we don't need to fight let's go yeah cuz I already know what it is right so we go up of course he surprised oh you know within the room and uh you know we walk in you know I walk in there and I'm just like hey okay so this is what this is was going on okay cool you know what I mean all right and this is what you're doing okay so and I walk out cuz I'm like I'm not about to fight over someone that he already made a decision you made your decision you already we been through it did she like come out let me let me explain yeah yeah what did that explain off without expl explain uh I'll go to the car uh after I went to the car then there was this I was like yo I need to go back and uh I went back cuz now I was like well I felt disrespected so now I need to go do something back so then I'm going back up there cops came everybody came up at that point and I remember this cop told me uh he said hey yo um I seen this this type of woman this this situation you need to get out of this situation you know what I mean need to get out of this situation like you know like a goofy still stayed around you know what I mean we said we was trying to make it work for the kids you know what I mean trying to make it work for the kids uh but it just wasn't working out you know what I mean trying to make it work and she ended up getting pregnant by another guy now how that situation happened was that I was at the hospital um she had a Sickle Cell tra so she ended up um uh you know I'm thinking it's that mhm we go in there and the doctor comes in and says yeah so you lost the baby and I was just like hey yo what you lost lost the baby and I'm like oh I know that's not mine and so I lost the baby and it just and I'm like okay so she was pregnant I at that time and this was just like what was going on you know what I mean with within the relationship but then it's also doing movies doing TV shows doing all these things as this is going on not really telling anybody I wasn't telling my parents telling my family uh what was going on you know so now uh all these situations are happening and uh I get to the point where I'm at you know 2004 up there and the thing about it is is that uh I would drink you know to get out of you know emotional all this this mind because it was just kind of like um you know making people laugh and doing all these things but then also this is going on too as well you know what I mean and so I got to the point where I'm about to do this uh and the reason I did that was because I went to Canada to do this movie and we had already the relationship was just toxic at that point so now I'm I'm here and I get a phone call and she's this this guy you know that she wants to be with and I was just was like okay yeah yeah y'all need to be together you know what I mean like let's do this but then I'm also dealing with the embarrassment of all these situation what's going on I don't want people to know what I'm going through all this situation and I just felt like at that point it needs to be a reset button just because I looked at my parents and how beautiful their relationship was and how this relationship was not being that at all and how what I thought marriage would be wasn't that at all and and even just the navigation of this industry as well and what was going on and I just wanted to hit off button at that point and I felt like that was the the answer right I tell people um you know I heard something tell me hey yo G get into a room lock the door um and get off this balcony I know that was God now but at that time I you know I said it was a person but I know it was God that told me to do that and I did that and went and did work and then from that uh changing my life around where it's to the point where now it's like really living life for me and understanding that yeah kale even though I'm listening to you talk and it's a very traumatic experience and I'm sorry that you had to experience that but it seems to me no matter how chaotic it was in your personal life it was the acting that kept you going well I would say this because even with the process of me and Keenan uh he kind of just um and I don't think he knows that we did have a conversation about this but he didn't know any of this either he didn't know all these things were going on in my life until recently when I was able to talk to him about it and uh the thing about it is is that on that side of work when it was a thing of you know uh my talent being stolen by you know this this writer uh this this yelling by this writer all these different things uh the process of that and work and all how that was um and navigating that he was also managed by the same company that the writer was in and so within that it was just like oh y'all all together so I couldn't trust anybody and where I was from you know uh with having people uh you know di within my life that were in Chicago I'm going through turmoil and a toxic relationship and then I'm also having problems within the workplace as well that was a a gumbo of just like yo you know what I mean of what was going on and that's when I talk about like with Robin Williams when I was saying like you know smiling everything and Mak other people laugh you never know what somebody else might be going through at that time and Keenan was going through his own processes well and things that he was going through but we both weren't sharing right and this is what I talk about uh with relationship and letting people know what's on your heart and letting people know what you might be dealing with because if you don't let people know they don't know and you just deal with that that that's a great place for the devil to just play with you you know what I mean within that process uh and I had to really understand that you know what Ian mean and so uh even with Amanda I understood you know what she was going through everybody has their own Journey uh of what they're going through in life everybody's journey is different and this is this is my journey in process of it you audition for Saturday Night Live yeah yeah yeah Keenan audition for Saturday night line yeah yeah yeah and I guess you guys are audition for a very s the same role yeah yeah losing I mean you guys had played all these was in these these sketch comedies and did these these shows together yeah did that strain your relationship to lose that audition to him no I I think that I explained it uh what really happened you know what I mean there was this uh divide of me you all don't understand what I'm dealing with through the process of all the things I'm dealing with right or even with these uh producers and the writer you know what I mean what's going on um and it's for them it just looked like yo Kell is just you know doing his own think he's frustrated he doesn't and that that wasn't what it was I have my own personal things that I was dealing with uh when we got on Sat live now you talk about this is years and we hadn't spoken a while and it was a lot so had you guys not spoken prior to Saturday night life not at all yeah we hadn't spoken yeah yeah yeah we hadn't spoken and so that's the thing about it it's like um there was this when I talk about the isolation and when I talk about work see when people watch us on television they're thinking like oh this is Brothers you know what I mean they Aang got all the time but this is a this is a job you know what I mean so when it ended we are adults you know what I mean so uh I always explain like this there's there's three generations of all that like we were 94 to 2000 then it came back around 2005 to 2010 uh and we weren't on that process of that show and then we brought it back in 2019 right and that went for only like two seasons right and so uh you got to kind of look at like like us being adults and navigating our own things throughout life and we hadn't talked in a long time and when sh live came along I was going through probably the you know the worst time of my life you know what I mean like you're talking about from 9798 you know to now it's uh 2004 you know what I mean like when he gets on the show around that time and we go to audition I didn't know Keenan was going to be there you know what I mean and there was a lot of D was there uh JB smooth a lot of different other you know actors I think I talk about this like people look at us like new addition you grew up with us right you know what I mean so this this this love there and so they felt like it was like this this fight but it wasn't it was just a thing of oh you here too okay let's audition and for me it was like I need this I got to get this job I got kids at home I want to get this job make sure this happened I'm thinking in that process and I remember when I got on stage I did original characters I had already been doing my DVD stuff so I remember audition with Michael Jackson if he was allergic to trees and so I did a whole thing when he was sneezing and that's how he came up with I did that on stage but it was very physical you know what I mean and I remember that and uh I was drinking at the time too what I did is so I remember I was just I got on stage I was just going and then what was already happening in my life at that point already with all the things was going on and you know I didn't get the audition which was fine though because there's so many other comedians that didn't you know on sign that live and I don't look at it as like I was upset in my boy and that wasn't what it was but what really was going on was what was happening behind the scenes you know what was going on where we just didn't talk you know how did it feel to re finally be reunited with Keenan yeah uh what years later as far as like with goodur which is funny um it was I want to say I was on game shakers uh was a show on Nickelodeon that I went back on and now here's here's the process of this um the same writer you know uh this was his show right now he was doing a a new show prior to this I was invited to um to Kids Choice Awards to give him an award and with all the other actors and knowing the past of us button heads right and knowing to the conversations that he had with other people as far as like get kill I don't want to work with kale this type of thing type person he is right right and I remember thinking now I'm the man of like um a man of Faith around this time and I'm just like in the process of things that I've went through I was like forgiveness is a serious thing you know what I mean and I was just like I'm going forgive and also too I want the other producers to know like yeah I'm not this is not a thing grudges I'm I'm not holding any grudges so they were surprised I said okay yeah I'll do it so I went on stage and I did that that ended up being uh where now all the producers like yo ke he's cool with Nick he's cool with us so then they just like okay cool and then they had me audition uh to be on game shakers the show right part of me was like well you know y'all know what I can do this type of thing but I was like I'm G to audition and do my thing and so I audition been on the show uh and got on that show when I got on that show uh he actually was the one who said Hey yo uh you and Keenan y'all should you know Reach Out and he gave me keen's number right you know what I mean and we actually reached out to one another and me and Keenan had a I want to say a on hour conversation of us just talking on the phone and me telling a little bit about my life of what I had went through and him sharing too but not all the way sharing but him just like shocked by what was really going on uh behind the scenes and all that I had dealt with uh and what was going on and that was good for us to have that conversation as adults may have that hour conversation and talk to one another then right after that we did um Fallon where we got together to do the good burger right yeah together and within that process though which was really deep um I told him I said yo look I'm not getting back in contact with you because of that you know what I mean I can care if we don't do this it's whatever I know us as brothers and what we've been through and the experiences that we experienced we need to talk to one another cuz the thing we found out within that conversation that we both had people talking within our ear while we were going through the process was the people telling me things about Keen you know people telling things about me tell things about you yeah during that process with the producers and writers and break you know trying to break that up and keep us apart and we told ourselves we wouldn't allow that to happen again and we really did that you know now every day we're speaking to one another as far as brothers and just checking on each other right you guys did so
