Here's what she says about her life as a drug dealer:
Sister2Sister: You started doing drugs, and you started selling drugs early?
Tasha Smith: Yeah. 15, 16. I wasn't no big time drug dealer, I was selling dime bags of weed, nickel bags of weed, $20 bags of cocaine - just a little bit of stuff. Then I had friends that would help me out and flip my money for me so that I wouldn't get into trouble. You know, it's just trying to make extra money.
Here's how Tasha describes her career as a skripper:
I was in comedy for about 7 years, and in the beginning of my comedy career, I had to make some money. They weren't paying us. You might make $20, $50 a set. If you did three or four clubs a week; that's $200.
I couldn't really live off that. So I had a friend that was stripping. She said, "I can help you make some money." So I did it really to support my comedy career, and no one in the comedy clubs knew because I only do White clubs .... I ain't stripping for no brothers because they want you to work too hard. [laughs]. In the White club, girl, I'd pull out these big ole boobs and my big ole butt; that's all I gotta do. I ain't gotta shake until I pass out
And she went on....
You know, I was not that ho that was in a man's face that I knew had a woman. I mean, if we was at the strip club, I did my job; I serviced my customer. You follow what I'm saying?
Gotta give it to Jamie over at Sister 2 Sister ... she finds a way to get the juiciest stories out of the celebs....[media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_7-QXnqcl3E[/media]
