‘Love & Hip-Hop’s’ Erica Mena Says VH1 Portrayed Her As The ‘Bad Guy’

Although viewers found the scene between ‘Love & Hip-Hop’ cast member, Kimbella and newly introduced member, Erica Mena, quite entertaining, turns out that Mena was none too pleased. Mena feels as if she was edited unfairly and the scene portrayed Kimbella as an angel. Because of this, she even requested that VH1 pull the scene entirely. She told TMZ,

“My whole image and my career is now affected by this. I wanted them to pull this clip because I don’t want to show this side of me.”

And Wednesday afternoon, Mena did an interview with Cherry Martinez on Power 105, where she talks about the entire fight that aired Monday.

On what really upset her to verbally attack Kimbella:

“My career was being compared to hers…we’re mothers…we’re grown women….I’m not a violent person…Editing is a mutha.”

On why she called the police:

“Once everything hit the fan, I knew I was by myself…my belongings weren’t with me….everything happened so fast….My whole thing is; they took my phone and were holding it.”

On her fight this summer with her child’s father:

“My break-up wasn’t the most healthiest…I had enough and needed to defend myself…years of frustration. It was my breaking point….It took a long time for us to get on the same terms….That’s where we’re at right now.

Listen to the entire interview below:

Here’s the throw-back video of her attempting to clock the sh*t outta her baby daddy.

    I mean if you go one a VH1 show what do you really expect. This isn’t a PBS special. They want to see those girls get down and dirty and that’s exactly what they got and she played right into it.

    Kimbella threw a glass at her, she had to defend herself. Now the manner in which they edited her defending herself, whole different story. If her resume is all that she claim it to be, then yea I see why she wants it pulled. But we know dis hoe done watched plenty of VH1 shows!

    Please…I watched the arguement and from what I saw Erica came on the show to start a fight. you tripping about how Kimbella makes her money, saying that she is messing with your money??? That arguement was stupid. Plus they have you on tape fighting your baby daddy in the street acting all uncontrollable. Thats the REAL YOU darling. Kick Rocks

    She really made herself look like an asshole. Kimbella is who she is. Erica wants some attention and made herself look like a jealous hoodrat. Erica was just a retail clerk in a clothing store so what it was Dash its still another retail store on the Strip.. Its a shame that these pretty girls are such air heads.

    Every1 on that show is wack & weak. @ first Yandy use to be my girl but she is so air headish. she sees to much good in ppl expecting them to act like her but fails to realize all those girls are birds. Erica being on DASH durrrrrrr it’s a show about fake ppl doing fake things w/ the idiots of America BUYing into. Erica & the KARDASHEMINS are friends all this stuff is for t.v. If she’s the bad guy then what are the other birds (CHRISSY, OLIVIA, & EMILY (just b/c she’s nice doesn’t mean she can’t be ugly). How many hood rats have been upset & try to snatch up the baby daddy’s? 2 many so stop front’n like that happen’n w/ Raul & this happening w/ a bird makes her a complete looney. Also that is what America is built off hating on those who will do the same amount of work for much less I admitted she was o.d. on it (not enough for a glass to be thrown @ her) but we all know money over everything & it is what it is.

    Erica played herself by being judgmental and thinking her career is on a higher level than Kimbella’s. Arguing with the next over paid/non-paid video gigs is not high-profile modeling. I’ve Never seen her in a national ad campaign ad, or an ad period and a Black Men’s mag doesn’t count. Erica needs to sit down b/c she hurt her own career acting like a hater and bird, you can’t edit what wasn’t shot from the beginning.

    What I’m wondering is whether or not Yandy plans to still take her on as a client?

  12. Dubb-B(female type) at 2:06 pm

    All I’m gonna say is Kimbella came out of the fight with nothing. Erica only called the police b/c her eye was messed up. She’s a punk.
