" Here's this woman played and their bottom 96 conference -- of ballet and with men the ups and downs to -- Hubert is finally ready to show the true colors of Hollywood in her new book called perfection is not a sitcom mom. She's here -- data take us behind the scenes of all the glitz and glam and really show us what it's like. To be a mother welcomes this -- the red flag and I got another story. Just a little bit here because we all know you hasn't said fresh prince Bel air -- started off as a day I started out as a dancer aren't actually as an actress OK -- And Jen and Julia and intimated that -- And then it comes started dancing because in the -- of a suspect and you needed to do all police activity -- back and saying did you move to LA for the I -- to -- and specifically for -- it's exactly the thinks thinks there -- pretty actually wonderful you know that first season and then that second season game amendment there with them. Of -- now for those that don't know and you we're on the -- for three C Griese Rex you've replaced by another mom Daphne -- read exactly exactly. There were a lot of rumors out there. We we heard a mall things on the Internet we're talking behind the scenes of the shows that. This is beyond you were saying you were difficult to work with him a little there was. Weren't saying that Will Smith was the only person who sent -- so wanted to -- I do you think. I think will backhand because there was so much. When I when it was when it was announced succeeds him -- amount time that I was leaving and then I was going to be the place because the contract. Issues with the network that's what the network always held to can always say it was only will who went out on that's. Real smear campaign because I think he had to win. I think that his arrogance his ego back then was tricked you liar -- like wacky sort of plays himself to be right now on the and in this -- You talked about it in your books like saying I mean there's now -- This button and couldn't -- a little -- a lot of information and -- that you said you know remember he started off as a -- England Italy and a couple of other actors on the show -- skilled trained actors they -- a difference there was a huge difference. He came in as an amount basically in the in my world because I've done theater and I done you know. Sometimes -- An unlocked so he came in as a rapper yes and so that whole ideology of the rap world back then as it is now why is not that great when it comes to women's show. Until this woman -- I took my job very seriously so. I was not difficult I think he probably was the most difficult for senator coming out the book now because for years so many people have heard the other side and whether it's rumors or or not LT came out with a book coming out section is not a sitcom mom -- to drop not a -- everything everybody in the behind the scenes what was going on. He's a lot of writers in Hollywood didn't want to touch it because they were afraid of losing their jobs they were at when we look for it when I was looking at ghost writers they were afraid because a lot of these guys have scripts on Paramount's desk and you know what he's a pretty big. Person in Hollywood now and show. I talked to one goes writer who said to me you know assuming you don't need coastline and you can do this yourself. And so I wrote the entire book myself. And took his lead and and sometimes when you lose against you lose. Certain things got gives things and so writing has become. A very cathartic thing for me I love it and you kind of let it out that you have some -- the Will -- you could say something to right now solve some good thing okay if I could yes and I say that in the book if packets sent it to him right now you know I don't wanna give -- away ranks right and it's -- I'm telling you honestly think every single pages a lot of -- here it did not know but. Let's talk about what you're doing now before we go it's gonna go in just a bit that you have a whole new com a book out for children yeah I have that in -- series called VT and BC it's because I felt that there is a need out there right now. For some morality. And -- he stands for a couple of things stands for bright children sensible and confidence -- beautiful and caring and and so we aspire arcades go back to that very. Court saying the goodness of what Barney used to teachers have been dinosaurs -- Little baby who. Who solves problems you know bullying and all we do with a lot of issues at. A lot of kids dinner with today and my own son was my inspiration to create change and -- that's grade you so happy you. You seem very at. I'm ecstatic especially now that sophisticated Nittany yeah. I did I am just a little bit about that lets users -- you can read more about what -- could really be like when the cameras stop rolling.
