Gizelle Bryant: Monique Wanted To Hurt Me.

"Monique is only capable of being a toddler and the next time we eat I will bring her a sippy cup."

By Gizelle Bryant
Beware Monique Samuels, Gizelle Bryant Is Like a Ninja

BravoTV.com: How were you feeling walking away from your clash with Karen Huger in the lobby? Are you glad you decided not to go with the group? 
Gizelle Bryant: Don't want to have a showdown in the lobby of any hotel let alone a beautiful hotel in France, but Karen pushed and plucked ALL my nerves. Did the incident with Ray happen? YES. Did I need to share it with the world? NO. So for that I feel bad about the explosion. My Momma always says go with your gut and my gut was telling me that I need space from these girls. So space I will get.
BravoTV.com: Have you explained to Robyn Dixon and does she understand why you told her that the other ladies didn’t want to wait? 
GB: Look, I didn't want to go to a baby oil factory, I think I had made that perfectly clear.  However, what I did want to do was hang out with my bestie in PEACE. So did I fudge a little so that I could make that happen. Yep! I think Robyn understood and let's be clear she didn't want to drive out to see cows and baby oil either, we didn't go to Kansas we are in FRANCE!
BravoTV.com: Tell us about this dinner conversation with Karen and you feeling that she always gets so “defensive.” What were you thinking when you brought up her wedding ring?
GB: I was taught people that get defensive and start screaming when you ask them a question have a whole lot to HIDE.  So since that is all that Karen does I have decided to ask her NOTHING. It's not worth it, the truth doesn't know her or like her. The truth and Karen are complete strangers with no chance of EVER meeting.
BravoTV.com: What do you think about the fact that it was first Charrisse Jackson Jordan that wanted to bring Kyndall around? Did this change your mind about Monique? 
GB: Charrisse wanted to bring Kyndall to one charity event. Monique wanted to bring her to EVERY event. Monique wanted to do whatever she could to try to hurt me. It didn't work, but she tried it, and if she had to do it over again she would. I get it, if I've said it once, I will say it 1,000 times, all Monique does it talk about ME. I guess obsession is a form of flattery. 
BravoTV.com: Tell us about this breakfast conversation with Monique. What do you think about Monique maintaining that she’s not the reason Kyndall is around and that if she wanted Kyndall around she would be around even more? 
GB: I'm glad the pancakes were good at this breakfast because nothing else was. Sitting talking to someone that can't take accountability for their actions is something I haven't done since my kids were toddlers and they didn't understand the consequences. Now that I know that Monique is only capable of being a toddler and the next time we eat I will bring her a rubber spoon and a sippy cup.
