Paula Jai Parker Addresses Lies Told About Her on "Hollywood Divas" Show (Part 16)

wasn't there a situation where you and your husband tried to finance a film mm-hm and well we didn't try to finance a film what happened was I was on a reality show called Hollywood divas Carlos King got me out of that situation I I had pitched a show through Atlanta about a show called black tresses about five actresses who come together and they create a movie or a television show and in that process we followed their journey and that becomes the show and because I had I have so much product and no outlet I when I was signed with three arts before that debacle I was blessed enough to have a deal at Fox you know I was with Irwin star and he took me in hand held into Fox I got a pilot you know at the final hour the hierarchy at Fox changed and you know Peter Roth who is now one of my biggest fans at the time I had knots blind knots and he didn't get me so he recast me with rose Jackson my pilot that I created for Fox and she did it but it didn't get picked up she got out the game because she married Big Daddy from married with children so I don't know if any of these names are suddenly familiar if you're in 90s trivia so my show didn't get picked up but I've been through the process so when I went through the process for the reality show Carlos asked me you know who I got along with who I didn't and that's all the cast was created but of course not knowing three of the game I didn't know it was created for the purpose of you know drama yeah attention drama yes that Chris so we ladies all wanted the same thing we all had a calm and Paul and that was diversifying our talents we had all been in this industry long enough to know some of us more than others like I'm countess who was a producer on her show the Parkers thanks to the brilliance of Monique and you know their team they owned a piece even of the Parkers so we did our thing in the midst of doing our thing it was really my thing because I was initially cast TV one came to me for product no one else that product I had about six scripts that I presented to them one was a wit show one was you know gangster chicks one was a girl's group another one was just about some chicks and their husbands I just had like I had six complete scripts and each took a different journey for five women and they chose the one called the white sisters so because the script was already written I they want they wanted to use it as fodder for the TV show and you know act like blah blah blah blah blah but forced and I had already written the script so it was like okay well blah blah blah blah so we bla bla bla bla bla but we didn't know that the world would think that their blah blah blah was the truth and for some reason and I say some reason I guess glibly because the project we forced and I we're not giving the money Forrest and I were given their creative power but not really I was allowed to be the director I was not paid to be the director nor was I paid to act in it so no contractual agreements had taken place between any of us thus far so Carlos and tired Todd Kandi's husband who was also a producer Todd negotiated 25 geez for us Todd got Todd got on that phone and made a happy baby yes and he got us 25 G's no contracts attached to shoot the script the white sister so we did all the blah blah blah pretended like we hired Forest Force had already written thing you know so when we wouldn't sell the finished product which mind you we like I said we didn't get the money we only got artistic control that was control over what we shot but we didn't get control over who was cast as far as the back like like on the grips we didn't get to cast production and I guess that's not get higher production so he hired production and this young man who our production had a history of issues you know and he didn't necessarily put all the funds into the project so a lot of people weren't paid in the end I still have kids come up to me like you know I was on that set or I did hear or I did makeup and this person was supposed to pay I never heard from that person you know and so by the time the project was finished there was no money all the money had been misappropriated so they were looking at me like something was wrong with me so my boy came in and he got it in the end he did an edit of it so the five ladies myself and the other four ladies would not look like imbeciles because the producer and the one of the ladies who wanted to be a producer and claimed to be a producer had misappropriated all our funds so they came to us after the project is done and TV one comes to Forrest and I and the the man the young man who put money into us having an edit and the reason why it was able to be viewed and they offered us $2,500 for all rights hmm Wow so I don't know much about enough but I know that $2,500 is nothing yeah but like I said I've been down that yellow brick road before when I told you I did the deal with Fox and I know easy come easy go and sometimes just take the money and make the product and that will jumpstart your career and I learned that firsthand from Bentley Kyle Evans my boss on family time who told me a story about that's what he had to do to get his first project or or that girl love that girl on he did it for free the first few episodes he gave away he gave away that [ __ ] hit so hard they couldn't pay him enough to do more you know so I had to allow my husband to live that journey on his own and so that's what I did so the next season coming back there was there we have it see people don't like it Hollywood people that have minds they want you to do what they tell you to do and when you don't do that you get penalized so the next season coming back I got portrayed as public enemy number one I was considered some kind of liar biblical references that I looked up were missing interpreted so it looked like even guy I thought I was a liar it was like the ladies all conspired against me and then got scared because they found out that I had the rights to the property because I had written it and I had and I had proof that I'd written it because I'd submitted it before I even knew who they were I had to submit it projects and they once they realized that then they tried to come back and and play both ends and get me to go against the others so when I remotely thought about doing it because they told me they'd done it it was just so much mess and so much money and all these numbers being thrown around and I just screamed and went crazy and said look [ __ ] I'm not playing these money grubby games let's be real and and I went kay fade on reality show they all ganged up on me and made it seem like they want to fight me and kick my ass I'm Cleveland bi you know and I'm sitting here like okay I'm if you tell me I'm supposed to be a bad guy like my husband was like you know tell me I'm supposed to be that guy then I won't k fade on you then I'll keep the I'll keep them in the image I can be a I'm an actor I could be a damn good villain as as you tried to make me be you know my whole career so I don't have a problem playing the villain but don't let me know I felt like I was on Punk'd all the time you know I'd show up and you know my godmother is a transsexual woman so I'd show up and it'd be a transsexual woman trying to highlight my husband Hey oh yeah [ __ ] I'm about to [ __ ] office to meet you just another [ __ ] trying to highlight my [ __ ] husband and I be set up for that [ __ ] I like what the [ __ ] what a [ __ ] can do to give some love in this [ __ ] so I was it was like what the [ __ ] yeah I felt like was his name Ashton Kutcher was about to jump out of every corner I'd be like please what is this reality world yeah so they canceled the show and put a hate stamp on the white sisters and it really affected my career like the the lies that they told about me calling me thirsty I am thirsty is theirs to be so in the Bible but I'm not I'm not those things I'm not the person that they made me out to be you know and the people that were doing those things because I am a child of God I allowed them to live their lie because it is not once again my job to expose my job is to uplift as a child of God so I didn't snitch nobody I didn't tell nothing they come they I don't know they claim their ancestry means that they gotta be up and aboveboard whose ancestry doesn't I don't know the ancestry that says you be a liar what access tree is that so I just was like whatever racist so you know I it affected all of our careers and you know when you one bad apple does for the whole bunch so as talented as you know some of us are myself in golden we still get that run you know and that's Jesus that's God because we we you know and and encounters and and at least at least she was smart enough to jump ship off time you know but it's it's just sad that some people would rather fail than see you when and I seem to I seem to affect women that way
