Does Lala Consider Herself the “First Lady of New York”?
I’m not in New York, so this is the first time that I’ve heard of this. While doing an interview with Pynk magazine, Lala mentioned the fact that she was flattered that sometimes she’s considered the “First Lady of New York.”
Of the title she shared…..
“I kind of laugh when people say it. It’s an honor to be called [The First Lady Of New York.] For people to even put us in the same category as Jay-Z and Beyonce — that’s just an honor in itself, but I don’t deal well with titles. To me, actions speak more than anything. It’s about being in New York now and being active, as New Yorker’s get active in the community. And getting out there and showing people what we are about outside of our businesses, with philanthropy and different things like that. That’s how you prove who you really are. You can be given a label and a title but what does that mean when there is nothing behind it? So for us, it’s about really embracing the city of New York. We kind of rushed and got here quickly, but now that we are settling in we’re starting to get out there and do some charity work and let people really see what we’re about as individuals, and as a couple.” Source
Great answer, Lala :)
