Rocsi is the co-host of BET’s 106th & Park, which I’m assuming is a music show of some sort. She recently gave a candid interview to Honey Mag. The interview reads like a therapy session, as Rocsi delves into her anorexic past and debunks allegations of sexual favors. Pop the lid for excerpts.
On sexual allegations:
“I got where I’m at because of my work,” Rocsi insists. “I never had to lay on my back to get where I was. I come from a Latino background where family and the way we were brought up was very important. That’s how we conducted ourselves as ladies. And that’s a very important thing to my family, so yeah, when these blogs come out and they start talking shit — you’re messing with what my parents instilled in me. And I know it isn’t true. But I’m glad I have great family members who know that I wasn’t brought up that way, to not be blinded by this industry.”
On her battle with anorexia:
“You’re never really cured, because sometimes you have to psych yourself up that you’re eating healthy, you’re at a healthy weight. As women you have those fat days, but in my mind, those days are a little too frequent,” Rocsi says. “To this day, when somebody calls me thick, that’s not a compliment to me. Don’t call me thick. I hate that. I think thick is fat. I used to think that if I had curves or stomach flab that meant I was fat. I used to go over 110 lbs, I would think ‘I’m fat.’ If I see on a scale 118 [lbs.], I would start starving myself to get myself down to what I need to be at.”
No word on Terrence J’s allegation that she has bad breath.
Here’s the Honey Mag’s interview with Rocsi.
