Oatmeal cookies and cheese… Jolly Ranchers and pickles 😂 What’s a unique food combination that you love?
Jolly ranchers and pickles. I thought I was the only one did this growing up.
Kerry, every Christmas my mom would cook what she called a New England boiled dinner. It was boiled ham, cabbage, and potatoes. But, the weird part is that we would pour vinegar all over it! Needless to say I don’t eat it anymore. Another weird combo is a friend eats Captain Crunch with Mac n Cheese powder all over it. Ewww! Kerry I loved loved loved 🥰 your book one of the best autobiographical books I’ve ever read. Thank you for sharing your truth with us all. Your book helped me move past something I was holding on too. I just love you Kerry. Best wishes ❤
Kerry, that sounds like something a pregnant woman would eat. 😂😂😂. But seriously I almost sobbed uncontrollably when Kelly spoke about the red rocker.
That's a H-Town diet lol
Jolly Ranchers and Pickles? Woah. lol.... I feel Kerry and Kelly on the Oatmeal Cookies and cheese. My family ate the same kind of snack. As for cheese sandwich with jelly, we ate toasted cheese bread with jelly or honey. Folks in the neighborhoods where I grew up, and even some of the corner stores, ate/sold a big pickle with peppermint stick in the middle. We also ate/bought plain potato chips with pickle juice poured onto it. Hahaha... we ate a lot of pickles. I also remember eating nacho cheese sauce on Flaming Hot Cheetos.
I swear, Kelly is one of the most beautiful women in the world. Just absolutely stunning
Kerry too!
I sware you ain't lying...she's absolutely beautiful
!!!
Love love this interview. Thx you both.🙏🏽
💯 beautiful inside and out great personality
It’s crazy that this is the first time an interviewer didn’t make the interview about the name they usually bring up. Thank you Queen Kerry, because this is great! Kelly you are a national treasure!! ❤
She allowed Kelly the respect and honor to bring her sister up when she wanted to.
@@semajcarmel i loved it!!!
I actually came to comment the same. Kerry is amazing.
I love how excited Kerry seems to ask these questions. She seems genuinely interested in Kelly's story. Also, their voices are so calming, lol.
Kelly should definitely make a movie about her early days. DEFINITELY!!! "Once upon a time there was a girl who lived on a boulevard with a red rocking chair and a big dream... "
Love that
Or write a book, or write a children's book about he red rocking chair
The best interview I’ve ever seen with Kelly Rowland. An interview where they are asking her about her and not Beyoncé. Kelly is her own woman and strong woman, successful in her own right. Thanks for allowing us to see HER!
THIS
👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
She deserved to dream! I broke down with that one.... So beautiful
And yet we can’t get a comment section without Beyoncés name. Lord
"A woman's woman" I love that phrase...don't hear it enough.
we typically hear a girl’s girl or a man’s man. But woman’s woman sounds warmer
I'm actually grateful for this episode because, truth be told for years, Kelly was presented to the world like she had no real identity or start of her own. I know as fans we know her, but it always seemed like she had no family, and it was just Tina and Matthew that raised her as though she would've otherwise been on the street.
This foundation actually makes perfect sense to who she is.
It's important because how many people don't know where they are from and their whole identity is based on only a period or place in their life. Nothing about those crucial years or their history or ancestors, so it's nice to know about Kelly as just little Kelandria and the key women in her life.
LOVEEEEE THIS! ❤LOVEEEEE LOVEEEEE WHAT YOU WROTE! SOOOO ABSOLUTELY AMAZING 👏🏾 I'M SOOOO EXCITED TO SEE SOMEONE PUTTING OUT THEIR THOUGHTS WITHOUT PUTTING SOMEONE ELSE DOWN! PEOPLE LIKE YOU ARE A LITTLE HARD TO FIND ON SOCIAL MEDIA NOWADAYS, WHICH IS SO SO SAD! SO, JUST WANTED TO ACKNOWLEDGE WHAT YOU WROTE. THANKS AGAIN 😊❤
Kelly has so MUCH talent and she's a much more grounded person, than I think she knows and you can hear it in this conversation. She's has much more talent than people give her credit for, she's really a "STANDOUT/BOSS". Here's wishing her continued success in whatever she choose in life.
Outstanding! Two beautiful women conversating politely. GOD IS ABLE!
When Kelly said “ that’s good “ to Kerry’s jelly and cheese sandwich I knew this was gonna be a great podcast 😂 Black women from humble beginnings 🥹🫶🏽
Kelly is so generous and vulnerable. Ive always loved that about her. It's such a brave superpower.
Love these two women. Such class, dignity, grace, and soul. So blessed to have stumbled upon this conversation. 🙏🏿
That southern accent just does not leave you. I love Kelly! She and Beyoncé have a similar talking voice.
Yep, which is why their singing voices blended so well.
When I tell you.... for years I've sat and thought these are 2 of the most beautiful amazing talented women in Hollywood. I love how their stories have really begun to tell themselves. Seeing them here seems like a unqiue moment fulfilled. I dont know why. Its a great day seeing these sister-queens elevated in this space.
Kelly Rowland ❤❤❤ Every time I see this woman, I always feel like we haven’t seen all of her just yet. She hasn’t shown us all her talent.
I just love hearing Kelly's accent! lol And, I always appreciate hearing the backstory of my faves. It's such a humanizing reminder of, "Oh yeah, they started from somewhere too". Kelly and Kerry are both so graceful. Love them!
Our brains protect us, our bodies keep the score! Never heard such profound statement! Amazing interview. And if she wrote a book it could be called The Red Rocking Chair.
There is a book called “The body keeps the score” by Bessel van der kolk. You should read it, if you haven’t ❤
@@christinegweredza9635oooo nice imma check it out
Kerry is on it with, "Street you grew up on". This convo was wonderful to hear. I like Kelly's awareness that this sort of interview opened some windows, that she'll need to explore with a professional aka her therapist. Prolli the first interview, that centres Kelly! 5 stars lol
Happy to see Kelly engage with Kerry; two of my favorite people. Kerry did a lot of interrupting with questions instead of letting Kelly fully answer questions. Kerry was kind of guiding the conversation with lots of small questions mid answer. Refreshing to hear questions asked that didn't bring up the names of people Kelly are associated with. Kelly remained the star, the center and the subject focus of the interview.
That's what I enjoy about the show. Real conversation. Talking to each other like folks do; interruptions and all
Agreed!!
I definitely agree with the interruptions. Kelly would be in the middle of answering some thing, and Kerry would ask her another question mid answer, and I was hoping not to lose the answer from the first question. Thankfully, I was able to follow. Overall, it was a great interview, but interruptions are distracting.
@@martineonthescenethank you!
Two of the most gorgeous women of all time in one room Woww. This healed me. So emotional.
Black women, WE NEED EACH OTHER Y'ALL.
Find your sisterhood, be good to them and stay close.
❤🌙🔙
From C.Y. Davis
I agree and am learning that more each day!
I didn't think it was possible for me to love Kelly Rowland any more than I already do but here I am 🥺🥺🥺❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Aw the part about the red rocking chair touched me bc someone we all need something of our own and I’m so proud of Kelly for embracing that and also embracing the fact that she deserves to live that little girl’s dream from Boulevard 💗
I had no idea this show existed but it came up on my screen so I watched it. This was a fun conversation and I love the throwback memories and decor (wood paneling, shag carpet, vinyl records, etc.). Great idea for a show!
UNDOUBTEDLY the best Kelly interview that I (emphasis on I) have seen. Also, her saying her childhood friend was the MOST BEAUTIFUL girl on earth? Ma’am, did YOU see yourself???? Loved the fact that this was ABOUT HER.
Ugh, leave it to Kelly to make me cry. I'm always crying when I watch her interviews. She is amazing.
Such a beautiful conversation. I literally was tearing up the entire episode. Moving around as a child and dealing with the subconscious of instability is tough, but Kelly’s perspective through each season of her life is extraordinary. Wow, what a rich conversation. I was deeply moved to see someone of her stature share so deeply. Feeling blessed. 🙏🏾✨
Kelly is a true friend... she is a caring person.....
Kelly seems to be so loving and warm. I love when I can hear that southern twang come out lol. This was a beautiful conversation.
I love how Kelly is expressive but humble
I love Kelly. So beautiful, vulnerable & powerful!
Its good to see beautiful young women being nice to each other for a change! GOD IS ABLE!
They both have such lovely speaking voices.
I’m convinced that Godly morning included news that Kelly IS INDEED playing Donna Summer (wishful thinking 🙏🏾✨😎).
This made me start thinking back about my childhood as a little girl. Thank you for sharing. I hope that one day I can share my story to the world that will inspire other women.
This is probably the best Kelly Rowland interview I’ve ever seen!
I rarely comment...but this was so genuinely personal and upbuilding. Kelly has always come across as humble and gracious....and now we see where it all camee from. Brought me to tears. Kerry- thank you for asking those insightful questions that really helped Kelly come to her own emphanies. Job well done ladies❤
Oh Kerry. This was a deeply spiritual stroll down Kelly's memory lane. I got the goosies from some of her recollections! Loved this. 💕💕
Thanks Kerry for making this interview more about Kelly pre-Knowles family! Everything the media has said about Kelly involves the Knowles, but this just gave us a new and richer perspective.
Love you Kerry Washington.
I love Ms. Kelly sooooo much!
This was a good and deep session. Loved hearing more about Kelly's upbringing because I didn’t know much.
OMG.....I had a candy lady in my neighborhood as well. What a great memory, Thanks Kerry and Kelly..,🥰
Kelly has that natural beauty inside and out❤
I had no idea that Kerry has a YT channel. I literally screamed when I came across it on these YT streets. Immediately hit the subscribebutton ❤
Wow! I love this woman ❤❤ she's my favourite actress from the US.
Much love from South Africa ❤
Wow!!!!❤ I can't tell you how much of a blessing it was to see this today. ❤ Kelly's calm and quiet confidence is so great to witness. The pause with each question asked, created such a safe space to be present. So good! Thank you, Kerry & Kelly! ❤
Kelly is so adorable 🥰 u see her and know she’s a kind person💕 sweet and all😌
#Kelendria has such a peaceful tone and it's awesome to hear her!! I love to hear #KerryWashington as well has a peaceful voice and texture!!🤌🏼🤨
Ima stop watching stuff with Kelly Rowland I’m tiiiiiiied of crying with her, every time it never fails I’m crying
Love this! Such a beautiful spirit they both have! Live for seeing us black women being able to share a space and tell our stories!
“The body keeps the score”… she must’ve read that book!! Watching this and remembering all the ladies from destiny’s child as a kid.. the growth is great to watch in real time
Hearing Kelly talk about her childhood before the Knowles feels extra special. I can’t explain it, but we didn’t always get these stories from her. Maybe the interviews are better too. Not sure but I love it!
Firstly, I didn't even know Kerry Washington had a channel!😄This show, season 3! I had no idea. Two of my favorite people in entertainment, this interview was so beautiful and special! It really lifted my spirits, just this simple talk! I was sort of in the dumps the past two days! Thanks for this!! I remember eating cookies with cheese! Growing up in the south, and now living in NYC its so interesting to learn the cultural differences within the black and brown communities. I love it!!😄 Kerry, your questions are Superb-Phenominal! I love you as an interviewer, its all the questions I've asked in my head as an interviewer to the people I dream of interviewing!
I love me some Kelly!
Praise God from whom all blessings flow ❤
This woman will always find a way to make me cry. Love her so much. Appreciate her so much.
My goodness, did this give me chills! Every single part of this conversation did my heart SO good. I may be the oldest of three girls who grew up on the east side of Atlanta, but I feel like I'm listening to two of my big sisters...and I LOVE it. Thank you Kelly and Kerry for making me feel seen.
This was so bomb Kelly is Gorgeous inside and out a true Queen in every since of the word❤
Thoroughly enjoyed this conversation. I felt like I was sitting on one of the chairs in the room with them. Very comfortable and cozy conversation that pulled a lot out of Kelly. Absolutely enjoyed it.
Two beautiful women discussing beautiful memories. What's not to celebrate? Thank you both for being alive. ❤
Loved hearing about kelly’s background. The red chair part was emotional
Thanks Kerry...
An absolute gem. Kelly Rowland is everything
This was an amazing season opener. I definitely teared up about the red rocking chair. I completely understand the significance of simply having something that is your own. I look forward to more of these beautiful episodes. Side note: Growing up in Chicago, we definitely put peppermint sticks in our pickles.
She’s so beautiful 😍
She's beautiful and wholesome, I saw myself in her growing up. Gotta love supportive moms.
I learned so much more about Kelly. This s one of her best interviews
The best 29 minutes and 57 seconds of my day. I'm so happy I joined Kerry and Kelly in this conversation. Two women I adore as people and who are both great talents. I too am happy they have each other in the entertainment industry. Kelly Roland is like biting into a warm chocolate chip cookie.
We Love Kelly Rowland ❤❤❤
I love who Kelly IS! A absolute joy to the world!!! ❤️❤️❤️😘 . And Kerry is such an amazing interviewer!
This just felt like a genuine conversation between friends 🥲 ❄️❄️
Always love Kelly. What an amazing interview. ❤

Been a huge fan of Kelly since childhood. We're not far apart in age. To see her glowing, thriving, and still growing 20 plus years later w/her beautiful family knowing how much she overcame early in childhood, is absolutely incredible. 🙌🏽🙏🏽
This was great!!
This was AMAZING!!!! I love the SISTERHOOD!!! 💕💕💕
What I have learned abt watching podcasts is so many ppl need to unpack on a couch. I love when ppl notice how they’ve come full circle. 🙏🏾 bless u Kells & 🙏🏾 thank you Kerry
Kerry I really enjoyed this interview with Kelly. This interview is my favorite!! ✨💖
Two beautiful women. Such an insightful conversation. We need more interviews like this. Great job Mrs. Washington.❤❤❤
This interview ending just made me cry. If only everyone can truly have a deep understanding of what it is to dream bigger than the four corners of your room. 💕
Bro. Idk WHOOO decided to cut onions around this joint! But when she brought up that red rocking chair towards the end? And said it was her own???? My eyes started sweating, almost immediately!!!!! Sheeesh
Kelly is so wonderfully Southern. Such a great interview!
Kelly, I love your music! Kerry, you are one of the best actresses! I love this!!!
The interview was amazing, her beauty so mesmerizing
Kelly is so graceful..... I love hearing her backstory. So beautiful and deep.
I find myself smiling throughout so many points of this interview and not even realizing it! 🖤
