24 hrs w/ RHOP's Candiace Dillard: Spilling tea, glamming & gearing up for a Lakers game performance

She's a staple on “The Real Housewives of Potomac,” but Candiace Dillard often finds herself in Los Angeles as she continues to flourish as a recording artist.
Such was the case on Feb. 9 when the Maryland-based reality star-singer, 37, was invited to perform the National Anthem and “Lift Every Voice and Sing” - the Black National Anthem - at a Lakers game honoring Black History Month and those who’ve attended historically black colleges and universities.
Dillard, a graduate of Washington, D.C.’s Howard University herself, invited Page Six along for the ride, giving us an exclusive look inside the hard work she puts in to prepare for an exciting career milestone.
