    LeeLee came to eat at my old job in Atlanta, I was a host..keep in mind it wasn’t my best day. She literally came back to the host stand and had a decent 10 minute conversation with me before she went to her table and on the way out she told me to keep my head up…ofcourse that stuck with me 🙏🏾♥️💯

      Lemme tell u something abt Coko she is from New York the hood side of the Bronx so u had to learn how to be rude and mean before someone takes from u so she had to be tough. She had to learn how to act around people and be more lady like/media pleasing.
