LisaRaye McCoy reveals some things about her past that she credits for helping her become the woman she is today.
During her sit down with “It’s Tricky with Raquel Harper,” LisaRaye details how she became the down-to-earth person that her fans love. The 54-year-old actress says her relatable persona comes from years of experience.
“For me to be the age that I am, I have done an awful lot. Things I could keep in the closet but for what? Because I’m not embarrassed by it because it helped me become who I am now. It’s things people don’t even know I’ve done,” LisaRaye says.
Host Raquel Harper then asks LisaRaye to expound on the details of some of the things she has secretly done.
“I been to jail…for a whole bunch of kind of sh*t. I shot somebody…”
She also details that she’s also pistol-whipped folks, claiming “I’m not the average pretty girl that’s afraid to break a fingernail,” LisaRaye added.
The interview ended with LisaRaye speaking on other not-so-gangster topics, such as her sister Da Brat welcoming a new baby. However, it may be safe to say LisaRaye’s private life helped her execute challenging roles in films like Civil Brand, The Player’s Club, and Gang Of Roses.
