Baller Alert Entertainment & Lifestyle
Season Two cast of Mob Wives has yet to disappoint their fans. Bringing them fresh new drama each week. Last week I caught up with the new flame to the never ending fire Romona. Romona has proven to us from episode one why she should have been chosen for the show, because she is a real Mob Wife. Being alliances with Karen there would only be a matter of moments before she and Drita were at each others necks. I got an inside look on how Romona feels about Drita and Carla. How she balances doing reality television and being a mom, what she does when the cameras aren’t rolling.
BA: How were you recruited to be a part of the show?
RR: A lot of people don’t know but I was recruited for the first season and I had to decline for person issues. I had to come back to the country I was having legal issues with my ex-husband, I had kids to get situated and stuff like that. These people are people that I hang around and have grown up with, some people were put on just to entertain television.
BA: As the new member on the show you bring a different edge, lots would call it cut throat. You don’t take anything from anybody, during the last few episodes there has been the drama between you and Drita. What are your feelings toward her?
RR: I don’t like her. My life goes on with or without her when certain things are put into play I just have to deal with it. She talks about she wants to this and that but she lives near me, she is just a tv gangster. Everything she is doing is just tv. Will she fight? 100% Will she fight for her life? Does she have that type of support to get her out of a really bad situation? Naw! She ain’t one of us.
BA: Last few episodes show that there was a lot of allegations that were being put on you from different, how were you dealing with these while filming?
RR:It started to piss me off but at the end of the day who is Drita? She basically just a girl who shows up like a green monster. She didn’t want to share a spot light that she thought that she created. She just want it to be about me me me but with my friends we don’t roll like that, maybe she can do it with Carla because Carla needs her.
BA: Carla and Drita are like Bonnie & Bonnie..
RR: Carla and Drita are just chilling now because they got a tv show, let me see if the show wasn’t in effect what would be going. You have to know who is going to have you back just not on tv, let’s see if the show wasn’t up and popping. I don’t think so. (Laughs)
BA: In the beginning you a had a problem with Carla but, after her and Karen Hash their issues out you decide to sit down with her. At that point how were you feeling about?
RR: At that point in time what was I supposed to do make a truth test and make her tell the truth? She people don’t understand I don’t need to lie I’m not scared of nobody the only thing I ‘m scared about if something happens to my children. Everything I say is because I don’t care I try to make it nice my bluntness comes how it is. I don’t mean bad intent with it, so that all it really is to it. What I think about that conversation is people make mistakes, hopefully she learns from these mistakes. What ever she has coming for it will I just don’t know about that girl.
BA: This pass week episode you guys take a trip to the Pocono’s, during the night at the cabin it comes up that Drita has yet again said things about you. This time she has made a statement that you said something’s about Junior (Renee’s ex husband), everybody knows how Renee is about her family..
RR: That was the whole thing Renee react on emotion and I could just sit there and say I saw Junior eating a candy bar at the local story because she believes for that split second built off of emotion. The question again is who the F is Drita for me to be telling her stuff. Like of all people why would I tell this busted girl that ain’t even cut from the same cloth. It’s just silly.
BA: Your relationship with Karen is she your real cousin?
RR: Karen is not my real cousin but we’ve know each other since the day we were born. Holidays together growing up together sleep overs we’re closer than other people that really are blood.
BA: In the first season it started drama between Karen and Drirta which has rolled into this season and you’ve got involved. First episode there was a conversation between Karen and Drita that lead into a fight. Drita wants to make it seem that you attack this situation and came in and jumped her..
RR: I didn’t attack situation if people watch the episode with blinders off they would see I went over to break it up. She is supposed to be a tuff guy, in my book a tuff guy doesn’t cry. She was in the van crying with a box of Kleenex. I had my mouth cut for what ever reason you didn’t see me crying. If we would have jumped her she would have fell off the balcony. Period!
BA: It did seem you were trying to break the situation up. I don’t think that Drita was ready to have that conversation with Karen..
RR: She was ready she just wants to make everything about her, she didn’t want me on the show because she feels threaten by me. I have her deep dark secrets which I want reveal because I’m not a rapper riding Karen’s coat tale. If you didn’t fight what would you have, all of this stuff that she is making up about her husband and the cost of the Jewelry. I come from a third generation of jewelers.
BA: Did you guys ever have a friendship?
RR: I have pictures with her on Facebook we hung together, when she claims she don’t know me this girl Romona. We hung out because we have mutual friends my sister hung out with her growing up. I didn’t hang out with her because I always had a boyfriend, she came over to my house. Did our kids hang out together? Did I take her daughter to the movies? So how can you say that girl Romona you don’t know me, you’re Liar.
BA: How do you feel about the image that is given to you on the show?
RR:When you sign that piece of paper you basically sign your life away.How ever people want to detect me they can go and do it that the price you have to pay taking a job like this. As long as I know who I am when I put my head on the pillow and my family knows that’s all that matters.
BA: Was bringing your kids on the show your original plan or did you hesitate it?
RR: I have four kids and I’m never going to deny them or bring them on they’re a part of my life. I’m not in to having them be out there all the time but they’re on it. I’m a mom first this what I live and breath for.
BA: Being a single mom and having to be strong along with doing the show it has to be difficult to manage all of this..
RR: I have a good family behind me so they assist me with a lot of things. Life is about balance you have to do what you have to do and be a super person. Any person that is a mom that’s what they’re.
BA: From senses on the show we can tell that you are a party girl, you through a Halloween party and some how Drita decide to throw one the same night. You had invited Carla to your party which she didn’t show up because she refuse to leave Drita’s party, what d0 you think about her after that?
RR: A)That’s her friend. B)You saw my party there wasn’t a space to be found, her party was empty like they sold out the whole store there was nothing in it just space. Me and the girls had a talk and it was the only right thing to do at that moment. Did I really care if she came or not? Definitely Not. Was she missed? Totally not. The reality of it was that I got a text saying her child was sick. Maybe she didn’t want to Drita about it because when she told her she met with me her faced got all twisted and her veins were coming alive on her neck.
BA: She did seem upset when she told her that you two had met up, do you feel that could be because she knew that making a friend with you Carla may have a different view on her?
RR:Drita thinks she is a boss and she is only a boss in her mind and a boss on Twitter with these little people that she controls. When it’s set in done maybe she thought she could control this girl, she is going to do what it is that she wants to do. Like her coming to the Poconos she said she had to do it for the show. NO! You came because you wanted more air time let’s keep it real, we invited you and you wanted to get in on that vacation. What else does she have going on?
RR: People need to watch the show more educated and read Karen’s book. The messages that she is hiding in her book, Karen has a lot of messages that they can sit there and decode. It will it explain why we really don’t like Drita? Why Drita is who she is? It’s a lot you just have to be educated.
BA: Beside all of the BS on the show you like to get everybody together and go out and have fun. How were you getting the girls in the same mood?
RR:Renee doesn’t really come out as much that was the Halloween party I was glad she could come. Me and Karen we go out all of the time. My children are well taken care of they go to bed at an early time, and that’s my time to go out and do what I want to do because I’m grown. I enjoy to go dance and have fun with my friends, again it’s all about balance. My fun maybe going to a Yoga class or dancing it’s stuff I like to do and I always do what I want to do.
BA:Watching the show each week what are you thought on what you see?
RR: Basically the way that they edit, you just have to sit back and laugh at all of the tricky. I chuckle sometimes out of this cracker making it like she is Tony tough. It really just funny. Personally I like the cameras to follow me because when you get in those green screen rooms they’re asking you questions and you’re reacting toward them. It just funny how they can pick your words and turn you into another person.
BA: Beginning a reality star now and having people judge you, do you watch other reality shows? Which one’s?
RR: I used to watch Housewives of Orange County a few years ago before it even started to pop. I love the Atlanta one’s I lived in Atlanta for 10 years. Love & Hip Hop I watch it before it blew up I would tell all my friends, now second season it has gotten crazy. I watch Basketball Wives, I’m not religious to it now because I don’t have time. I tivo and catch up whenever I can.
BA: Aside from the show what other projects do you have going on?
RR: I have a tanning mist that is coming out. It’s going to be a #1 product everybody can use it any color. I also co managers and partners in an R&B group Final Draft they’re based out of Atlanta. I’m very heavily involved in charity you’re going to see on the show. I teamed up with a charity called in Arms Reach , it’s a charity that helps children whose parents are incarnated the money doesn’t go to the parents. We did a fundraiser that I organize the money went toward getting them buses so they see there kids more regularly. I was one of those kids even if you have you mother to take you on a car ride it much better if she can bring people in the car, it very costly to. I recruited Maino he came and perform three songs, we had gotten Trech from Naughty By Nature it was something real good.
