Lala continued the explanation in an episode interview. "When I created Give Them Lala, it was very much like I was shoving myself down your throat," she admitted. "I have changed as a person. I am, believe it or not, a little bit more reserved, and I need my brand to reflect that."
In her conversation with Lisa, Lala concluded, "I'm just a bitch in these streets trying to rebrand and get a sperm donor."
Lala Kent is pregnant with her second child
In case you missed it: Lala did find that donor and is currently pregnant with her second child. In an interview published in January, Lala confirmed to Cosmopolitan that she was trying to conceive via Intrauterine Insemination (IUI) and selected a sperm donor by looking at a series of questionnaires through California Cryobank. "It took a really long time to find the donor because, you know, it’s strange....It’s like you’re shopping for your partner but only to have a child, so there’s a lot that goes into it," she explained at the time. "But the moment I found this donor, it just spoke to me."
She added with a laugh, "He felt like my baby daddy. So that’s where we’re at."
