Love Island Fame, Drake's Baby Mama, & The Difficulties Of Dating Black Men. (Part 1)

**Azar Farideh** (0:00)
Drake reportedly pays her around $700,000 per month in child support. We shouldn't be together for five years and not be married. I'm not gonna be with a nigga for five years and not be married.

**Paul Pierce** (0:09)
You ain't never been in a relationship that long?

**Azar Farideh** (0:11)
I have.

**Paul Pierce** (0:12)
If I'm with a girl and I need a kidney, and she don't give me a kidney, we breaking up.

**Azar Farideh** (0:18)
Yeah, I feel you.

**Paul Pierce** (0:19)
I feel like black women are better sexually than any other race. Like if you say something like, damn, I love the way your lips look so juicy or something, I don't know, that's sexual. Yeah, that's crazy.

**Azar Farideh** (0:30)
You take it in bar though. You can't say that.
Do you think that men or women are more toxic? Hello, beautiful people. We have missed you. Welcome to another episode of The Truth After Dark. I am your host, Azar Farideh.

**Paul Pierce** (1:23)
Paul Peasy, in the Heasy. What's happening?

**Azar Farideh** (1:26)
What is happening? We've had a lot of guests on. We haven't really had a show one-on-one in a minute. I know some of y'all were like, damn, like where's the vibe? We need the one-on-one back in action. So we got it for y'all.

**Paul Pierce** (1:39)
What's the tea? We need to give everybody the tea.
Ain't that what you say?

**Azar Farideh** (1:44)
Yeah, the tea. That's what the kids say.

**Paul Pierce** (1:46)
Yeah, that tea. What's the latest tea?

**Azar Farideh** (1:49)
Obviously like Love Island has been a big deal recently. I love Love Island, but obviously not everybody watches Love Island, right? But the crazy thing to me about Love Island is that these people go from working in a hardware store and driving garbage trucks to being in Vogue magazine.

**Paul Pierce** (2:09)
Yeah.

**Azar Farideh** (2:10)
Like, it needs to be studied how these motherfuckers go on a reality show and their whole lives are fucking changed after six weeks and you know how to do shit, but sit up there and make out with a bunch of niggas. Like, this is crazy to me. And now they're on People magazine and this and that and that.
It's wild, you know, but it's a crazy opportunity for people to like change their lives, I guess, literally.

**Paul Pierce** (2:37)
Well, yeah, it gives you an opportunity because you're in a limelight. It's like a cult following. Yeah. So now when the show is over, you got your 15 minutes.
So now can you turn that 15 minutes into something?

**Azar Farideh** (2:51)
But some of these people, they have more than 15 minutes, and I'm talking about Orlandria, who was from the last season. She's in Vogue magazine. She's on the cover of Bizarre magazine, Glamour magazine. That's huge.

**Paul Pierce** (3:01)
Is that the one girl that went to the BET? Yeah, that's huge.

**Azar Farideh** (3:04)
And so she had a white boyfriend or whatever. They just broke up. They were together for a year. I feel like they were never together. It just never gave that. But I feel like it was like a PR thing. Like Love Island saw how people were shipping them together, and they were like, look, we're going to bring y'all, because they both were supposed to be voted out. And they were like, we're going to bring y'all back, but y'all got to be together and y'all got to...
So now they have the same thing for Trinity and Bryce who won this last season. They just know the blueprint now. People are obsessed with them. They were obsessed with them before they won. And some people are saying that Love Island is propaganda for interracial dating. And they think that they're trying to push this narrative of like a white guy with a black girl and they're trying to push it because people are like really obsessed with it. And it is strange how obsessed they are with the white and the black. And every time it's a black on black couple, they get voted off.
So it is weird. But DDG was saying that he wants to watch Love Island, but he feels like if you're watching Love Island without your girl, you're gay.

**Paul Pierce** (4:11)
What?

**Azar Farideh** (4:12)
That's what he said.

**Paul Pierce** (4:13)
Yeah, I ain't, I don't think I ever turned on Love Island just to sit there and watch it though.
I'm trying to, you're gay though? Like if you're watching, it's a reality TV show about dating. I mean, men watch those shows all the time. So, I don't know.
