Let me take you back; I was in New York at this Babyphat after party a few years ago, I remembered her from some show I use to watch and I just approached her, we clicked and the rest is history. Bevy's played the title of my mentor or life coach if you will-she's gotten me right together plenty of times. In order to grow you should have someone that you look up to in your field, try not to hang with people that just tell you how fab you are-you can learn more from a critique than from a compliment. I tipped to New York this summer on some fly shit and Momma B was like " chile you've only been here for 2 months, you have to pay your dues".
What keeps me goin is the fact that I know Im in good hands. I don't hang with too many kats-I prefer women. Im quite and I observe. Now that was some good advise right there. Im tellin yall, she makes me wiser. I marvel at her success.
Bevy has now turned into a Lifestyle Specialist traveling the world and now Smith also hosts "Dinner With Bevy," a unique social experience that connects trendsetters in style, entertainment and media at intimate dinners.
Do I have a girlfriend, well technically no-but I love the lady to the right with all of my heart-Ericka PittmanRemember to just go for yours, Im goin for mine. I use to watch Bevy's career when I was back home in Houston on the t.v. and now we sip champagne and discuss how to conquer the game.
