Tameka Raymond Explains Her Behavior On Reality TV: Drama is value.

Angry/bitter Black women. I am disappointed and frustrated to be presented like that. I am not that woman. I am blessed with a wonderful family, genuine friendships, and vast opportunities to inspire and affect change in the lives of millions. A responsibility I take seriously.

On the drama that happened at the event held in honor of Kile’s World:

I have made mistakes. When the producers asked to film my T-Market (Flea Market) event in support of my “Kile’s Word Foundation”, I honestly should have never agreed to it. That was my fault. Once there, the producers felt the scenes didn’t have “enough action.”  So, I was told they sent Torrei and her friend Traci Steele to start some shit – and shit they started!  Not the optimal plan…

What they didn’t know is anything having to do with the loss of my son is off limits, especially when mockery or childish fodder is included. I can’t untangle those feelings for TV. It is a zone that doesn’t go with the rest of my entertainment life.  Although creating a confrontation there may have provided the “action” or the valuable drama I spoke of earlier, it was a mistake.  Poor in taste.

After shooting that scene, you may have heard the rumors that I quit the show. BINGO – that was why.  I don’t want it nor need it that bad, seriously.
