00:00 - Rubber ducky, my man, Anthony Anderson.
00:05 Come on!
00:07 - Were you surprised that Anthony Anderson
00:09 was the rubber ducky?
00:10 - Well, you know what's weird?
00:12 I was literally sitting there going,
00:14 I wonder if this, and I put it in my notes,
00:16 'cause we have notes in front of us,
00:17 and I put Anthony with a question mark.
00:20 And for some reason, I just,
00:23 I was like, it doesn't seem like him,
00:24 but all the clues, 'cause I'm a clue-holic,
00:27 I'm like, the clues go with Anthony,
00:29 so yes, I was totally shocked that Ken got it right.
00:33 (laughing)
00:35 - Do you have a dream contestant?
00:37 'Cause you guys have already had
00:38 so many good people on "Masked Singer,"
00:40 so who's your dream person?
00:42 - I'm not saying this, just to be a big tease-a-holic,
00:45 but you guys will not believe who we have
00:49 in the future, I'll say, of "Masked Singer."
00:51 In the future, you guys are gonna lose your freaking mind.
00:54 Each season gets better and better,
00:56 but I do have a dream of one person
00:58 that I really want on the show, and that's Beyonce.
01:01 Beyonce.
01:03 - That would be pretty iconic.
01:04 - I would love it so much.
01:05 I mean, ah, who knows, we'll do a show.
01:07 But based off of these other celebrities that we're getting,
01:10 a lot of people do the show for their kids.
01:13 So when we ask them,
01:14 well, why did you wanna do "The Masked Singer?"
01:15 They're like, my kid watches it every week,
01:17 and people on Twitter are hitting me up,
01:19 saying, hey, are you behind that costume, and it's not me,
01:21 and I wanna just do it for once.
01:23 And it's been so good for families.
01:25 "Masked Singer" is how we treat the vault.
01:28 It's a vault.
01:29 No one can talk about it.
01:31 My mom asks me, I don't mention it.
01:34 She's like, please, I just wanna know.
01:36 I'm like, no, Ma, you gotta play the game,
01:37 because it's kinda like learning a magician's trick.
01:40 It's no fun.
01:41 The trick is no fun when you learn how they do it.
01:43 So you just gotta stay tuned and keep guessing.
01:46 - And your son is now working on the show.
01:48 So how is it working with him?
01:49 Has it made it more fun and enjoyable to come to work?
01:52 I'm sure it was enjoyable before,
01:53 but now you get to be with him, so.
01:54 - I can't even tell you the feeling I have in my heart
01:57 of going like, oh my God.
01:58 I used to, as a working mom,
02:01 I couldn't wait to get home and be with,
02:03 I was like, I need to be a mom.
02:03 I need to get home and be with my baby, my boy,
02:06 now my young man.
02:07 But now to have them both integrated,
02:10 I'm like, oh my God, I'm just missing my husband.
02:13 That's all, us three together on a set.
02:16 That would be a dream come true.
02:17 But having Evan has been a life, a game changer for him,
02:21 and now for me, 'cause I get to see him be so proud
02:24 in what it looks like to exude that confidence
02:27 from doing a good job.
02:28 - Yeah, and he released music earlier this year.
02:31 Has he always wanted to be in a showbiz?
02:33 Were you always supportive of him?
02:34 Were you hesitant for him to be involved in this?
02:36 - You know, Evan released a song early in this year,
02:40 and it's not to become a singer.
02:42 He had his heart broken, and he literally spent hours,
02:46 days, months crying and said,
02:48 I'm just gonna put all my emotions into a song.
02:51 I'm gonna write a love song for when I was a teenager
02:54 and I had a crush on Selena Gomez,
02:55 and I love the work that she does,
02:57 and I'm just gonna write a song.
02:58 And he wrote this beautiful song
02:59 that Donnie helped put the melodies,
03:01 Dad helped direct, and put it out there.
03:03 And we're still waiting for Selena to say hello.
03:06 - Selena, if you hear this. - I know!
03:08 - He looks every morning at his DMs.
03:10 He wants to see, he's like, she didn't DM me yet.
03:12 I'm like, someday.
03:13 - Patience. - Someday.
03:14 - Patience is coming. - As I'm teaching him.
03:15 And sometimes it might not ever happen at all, you know?
03:18 But-- - But at least he tried.
03:19 - Yeah, and at least he processed a hard breakup,
03:23 I think in a very healthy way,
03:26 instead of, you know, going to the bar like Mom did.
03:29 - You mentioned Donnie.
03:30 Fans love you guys together,
03:33 and I read that he fainted
03:34 when he saw one of your recent campaigns.
03:36 Is that true? - Oh my God.
03:37 - How did that, please tell me more.
03:38 - I mean, I wouldn't go so far as to say he totally fainted,
03:42 but he did, he literally fell off his chair,
03:46 he fell off a treadmill, he couldn't believe it.
03:48 He was like, he's like, I thought,
03:51 he's like, of course I knew that you could,
03:53 had the potential to do a shoot like this with Skims,
03:56 and Carmen Electra, but you know,
03:58 I haven't done those kind of Maxim Magazine FHM,
04:01 you probably have no idea what I'm talking about,
04:03 but it's okay.
04:04 - I don't know what FHM is.
04:05 - They were these cool, like, magazines
04:08 where they would just have, you know,
04:10 the girls in the business, like,
04:13 either riding a hot car, or hosting down a Ferrari.
04:17 But we did an homage to that,
04:19 and it was just, it was fun to be able
04:21 to still do it at 50.
04:23 - That whole campaign was iconic,
04:25 you looked incredible. - It was pretty great.
04:26 Thank you.
04:27 - Okay, so you guys have been together for so many years,
04:30 when did you know he was the one?
04:33 - I knew during the taping of my VH1 show
04:37 when I was interviewing him.
04:39 I was talking to him, and he was answering a question,
04:43 and I remember just having a moment of like, hmm.
04:45 He was articulate, he was funny,
04:48 he listened, he engaged, he was good looking.
04:51 And by the end of the interview,
04:53 I gave him my phone number, and I had never,
04:55 I've never given my phone number as the first person,
04:58 I'd never approached anyone first in Hollywood, ever.
05:01 He was the first one, and at 40 years old,
05:03 I was like, here's my digits.
05:05 And then I just need him to catch up.
05:08 To where I was all in.
05:11 - Yeah, oh, that's okay.
05:12 And what makes him, like, the best husband?
05:14 Like, one or two qualities, or you're just like,
05:15 dang, I can't believe he's mine.
05:16 - Oh my God.
05:18 Well, how can I not put loyalty, and romantic?
05:23 He's so romantic.
05:24 He sends me flowers every Monday
05:28 that say, "Just 'cause," since we've been together.
05:32 - That is so sweet. - Since we've been together.
05:33 Every, in the hotel room I'm staying,
05:35 I've been here for a month,
05:36 I have four, four beautiful orchids that say, "Just 'cause."
05:40 'Cause every, he doesn't forget, no matter where I'm at.
05:42 It's amazing, he's so sweet.
05:43 - Everybody, please take notes.
05:45 - It's true.
05:46 - And, okay, I mean, it doesn't sound like you guys
05:48 need to do anything to keep it spicy, or to keep it fun,
05:50 but is there something you guys still do
05:52 to kinda keep it fun, keep it fresh?
05:54 - Date nights, you know, and we took that from other people
05:56 that were doing it right, you know?
05:58 We're like, let's hear what they're doing.
06:00 And it's also about staying curious with one another,
06:03 'cause I think sometimes we tend to turn into roommates,
06:05 or workmates, so you wanna just be able to,
06:08 be able to find the curiosity in your partner,
06:13 no matter how much you think you know them.
06:15 You know, there's true events, real events going on.
06:17 How do you feel?
06:18 You ask the question, how do you feel about that?
06:20 And I think that that takes your relationship
06:22 to the next level.
06:22 - So when did you realize that you wanted
06:24 to get into beauty and makeup?
06:26 - You know, when I started to care about ingredients,
06:29 especially as you get older, you wanna live
06:32 as long as you can for your kids.
06:34 So I started being more cautious in the food area,
06:36 and then I went into beauty care,
06:38 and I looked into certain brands to see if, like,
06:42 they had clean ingredients, or this.
06:44 I was shocked to find out that the last time
06:46 the FDA regulated makeup was 80 years ago.
06:50 They trust the manufacturers, to be like,
06:53 yeah, we swear it's safe.
06:54 I'm like, I don't trust anybody.
06:56 So I said, I have to do my own work.
06:59 I have to build a company from the ground up
07:02 so I can stand behind it and know
07:03 that the ingredients are good,
07:06 and we'll do our best to kind of crack the code
07:09 on certain things.
07:10 Like, foundation has always been known
07:12 to have a lot of bad ingredients
07:14 'cause your skin absorbs it.
07:15 Mascara's been known to have huge hormonal disruptors,
07:19 and so I was like, let me try to make a mascara
07:22 without hormone disruptors,
07:23 and that's what we just launched recently.
07:25 - I was gonna ask about that.
07:26 So I have straight, short eyelashes,
07:28 so I'm very excited to try your mascara.
07:30 How did you decide you wanted to do mascara?
07:33 I know you already have a bronzer,
07:34 you have some lip glosses.
07:35 Why was mascara the next move for you?
07:37 - Mascara was the next move because I couldn't find
07:40 other brands that had the ingredients
07:43 that I wanted to stand behind.
07:45 And because they're so close to your eyes
07:47 and we absorb all the ingredients,
07:51 but mascara is really known.
07:54 Like, a lot of them have aluminum in it,
07:56 there's some metals in it,
07:57 and the hormone disruptors, I'm already messed up.
08:00 I don't need more hormone disruptors, you know?
08:02 So I wanted to do something that has those good ingredients
08:04 but also actually works.
08:06 Now, a lot of the ones,
08:08 mascaras that you guys see out there,
08:09 they're like, look at all the,
08:11 they've got lash extensions in the mascara.
08:16 They might go up to here, but there is plastic.
08:20 You're putting like microplastic
08:22 on your eyes and into your systems.
08:24 So this is a, we build an amazing mascara
08:28 that builds naturally.
08:30 So you can put on a layer and then come back later on
08:32 to go out that night and put on more and more and more,
08:35 and you won't have those weird spider-looking eyes.
08:37 You'll just have clean, beautiful lashes.
08:40 - I love it, love to hear that.
08:41 And I know your makeup is cruelty-free, vegan.
08:44 What was the hardest thing for you
08:45 that maybe was unexpected
08:46 when you were launching your brand?
08:48 - Just how hard it is to launch a brand.
08:50 And especially in the beauty industry,
08:52 when you have to go up against the giants,
08:55 you know, you're going up against those, you know,
08:56 CoverGirls and Maybellines and other celebrities.
08:58 So it's like, how do you stand out?
09:00 Well, I wanted to stand out by knowing that people
09:03 know that I'm pretty transparent about a lot of things.
09:07 I'll talk about Botox, I'll talk about,
09:08 you ask me the question, I'll tell you the answer.
09:11 So I feel like if I got behind a beauty brand,
09:14 if people know, okay, she's not gonna mess around,
09:15 she's gonna use it on her face, it's gonna be good.
09:18 - It's the real thing.
09:19 You have several products.
09:20 If you had to pick one, which one's your favorite?
09:21 - Ooh, God.
09:22 - I know, it's like picking a baby, but.
09:24 - Oh my God, that's really hard.
09:27 I mean, ugh!
09:29 - Sorry.
09:29 - I mean, I'm in love with the mascara
09:32 'cause it's my baby right now and took so long,
09:34 but I'm a gloss-aholic and we launched with glosses.
09:37 And this, you know, they're good for your ingredients,
09:39 but they're also moisturizing.
09:41 A lot of times, you know, lip glosses can be like,
09:43 (imitates whirring)
09:45 and you get that weird stretchy stuff.
09:46 This, you can apply and apply and apply, talk all day,
09:49 and it's just shiny and good for you.
09:51 - Your makeup right now looks amazing.
09:53 Your lip gloss is like shimmering and you just look amazing.
09:55 Do you have any makeup tips that you maybe
09:58 have learned along the way while making your makeup brand
10:00 that you wanna share?
10:01 - I did, I realized the importance of putting some type
10:05 of a primer underneath your eyeshadow.
10:08 And that could really be your concealer.
10:10 A lot of people just stick it under their eyes,
10:12 but you should put it on your eyelids
10:14 and then put a little loose powder on
10:17 before you put on your shadows.
10:18 It goes on easier and it stays longer.
10:20 But also, the importance of curling your eyelashes.
10:24 You mentioned that you had straight eyelashes.
10:26 You should not even start with mascara
10:29 until you curl your eyelashes.
10:31 It makes all the difference in the world.
10:33 Mascara doesn't have a heating tool with it yet.
10:37 I didn't invent that yet.
10:38 But you definitely wanna curl them
10:40 and then find a mascara that has that black, black pigment
10:45 that makes it punch really more like ours does.
10:48 And good for you.
