#TBT: CHRISTIAN CONFIDENTIAL - EP 4 (KESHIA CHANTE)

Good Morning #KCRyders. Here's a throwback interview from Keshia. In 2012, Keshia did an interview with Canadian model personality Christian Thompson for his Youtube show Christian Confidential. The episode was originally released in October of 2012.

In this interview, Keshia talks about being a judge on Season 5 of The Next Star, her relationship with bf Ray Emery, relationship advice and being approached for 'Hockey Wives'. While she doesn't say then whether or not she'd be a cast member of a reality show, regarding 'housewives', this comes three years before W Nework makes the big announcement that Keshia is added to the Season 2 cast in July of 2015.

At the end of her interview, she & Christian do a lip sync performance of 'Mercy' by Kanye West.

Hockey Wives (Season 2) is scheduled to air late Fall 2015. (September/October)

Watch Keshia's interview with Christian below.

#TBT: KESHIA COVERS BLEU BOMBSHELL MAGAZINE (DEC 2014)

THE WORLD OF WAGS

MAY 18TH, 2014

My introduction: As a kid, I remember my dad watching Hockey religiously. He still does. Back then it was all about Mario Lemiuix, Wayne Gretzy, I remember having a lot of Ottawa Senators gear (I was born in Ottawa) & Montreal Canadiens.

When I first started dating Ray, it was off-season & he was injured. I didn't really see him in his element. (*I will post about how we met & our story next!)

#TBT VIBE VIXEN "DIGITAL DISH" INTERVIEW W/ KC (FEB 2014)

Afternoon #KCRyders! We've got two great #TBT segments for you today. The first one is from Keshia's Vibe Vixen Digital Dish interview from February 2014.

For 14 years, BET’s 106 + Park has not only redefined television for millenials, but made stars out of its hosts. Filling the shoes of 106 legends like AJ Calloway, Free, Rocsi Diaz and Terrence J. may seem a daunting task, but current host Keshia Chante makes it look easy. Alongside “King of 106” Bow Wow, the Toronto native is quickly carving her own piece of BET history.
Already a bonafide star in her native Canada, Keshia’s infectious energy wins over viewers every night and now we know why. Vixen was recently invited to the 106&Park HQ’s for some girl time with the singer and host. During our mani sesh, Keshia was an open book as she told us all the juicy deets about 106 and her life off-camera.
