In a recent interview with TV One, Nicci spoke on everything from Curvato to surprising Faith with a visit from her daughter China. Peep a few excerpts from interview below.

Nicci on Curvato:
To me, a CURVATO girl is sexy, confident and a woman who embraces curves but also understands her health. I am not endorsing to be heavy. I want women to enhance their curves not eliminate them.

Nicci on sharing that she had a tummy tuck with the world:
On the radio I discussed my tummy tuck surgery that happened when I was 24. After the scene a lot of people were like, “Are you sure you want to put that out there?” My answer: ABSOLUTELY! I used to be really embarrassed before – I was only 24 at the time but now I realize that I was a little premature making such a big decision. But that is the pressure you get working in the industry. Now a day’s its butt injections and tons of other things but women need to really understand the repercussions. After Kanye West’s mom passed, I decided to speak to the dangers of what could happen and share my story. It’s real out here! Prior to my tummy tuck surgery, I lost 50 lbs. so I had extra skin so I don’t regret my decision but at 24 it was a lot.

Nicci on Monifa’s past drug abuse:
Monifah is the most amazing and bravest person I know. Any woman can make a mistake but realizing and wanting to grow from that is AMAZING. To say in front of the world I MESSED UP makes her an example for mothers and children in similar situations. It happens more in our communities than not. I applaud her for caring less about what people think and being real.

Be sure to tune in to Episode 3 on TV One Monday at 10pm to see if KeKe is really ready for Baby #6.
