‘Blood, Sweat and Heels’ Star Demetria Lucas Says Being a “Working Woman” in Reality TV is “Revolutionary” [VIDEO]

Demetria Lucas is an award-winning author and the owner of BelleinBrooklyn, a popular blog that offers business and personal advice to women around the world. Many people already know the 35-year-old for her business savvy mentality and candid advice. Some suggest that she had carved her own lane, prior to joining the cast of Bravo’s “Blood, Sweat and Heels,” .

It’s not just about the beefs and the arguments and the drama. It’s about what I do. So, I am actually doing something on a show about working women, and being a reality star doing something is sometimes revolutionary.

I was devastated. You know, I mean, Daisy and I have had our differences but in no way do I want her to be ill or sick or nothing like that. And then she’s so young. She’s only 34.

Why she’s so opinionated:
