| 0:20.4 | Miss Tiffany. We are doing a very special midweek recording of Brown Ambition. But we both |

| 0:34.8 | First of all, let me say that you're here with everything and that dress was really cute. Oh, |
| 0:38.0 | thank you very much. Hey, TJ Maxx. Oh, 2013. I was like, oh, my goodness. Mandy, snatch. Thank you. |
| 0:46.8 | You know, it's funny. So thank you so much. Yes, I was awarded by the National Association of Black |
