This is an exclusive interview that you won't find anywhere else. Kim got to
interview Tyrese so now she's sharing it with you. His answers aren't his total
exact words but they're close enough. And there is very different questions than you've probably heard before. So just read and enjoy.
Me: will you be touring for your new album?
Tyrese:
yes
Me: how many cities are you planning for?
Tyrese: as
many as possible
Me: In the "Lately" video, did you enjoy kissing Maia Campell?
Tyrese: yes
Me: have you ever been confronted to endorse a fitness program?
Tyrese: no
Me: why don't you
consider yourself a sex symbol?
Tyrese: i just take it as a
compliment.
Me: what's your favorite song of all time and
why?
Tyrese: Luther Vandross "A House Is Not a Home" because it covers a lot of perspective for me. it's all about reality.
Me: how often do you workout?
Tyrese: every other day. i don't really need to as much now.
Me: How old were you when you had your first
kiss?
Tyrese: 8. no i was 19 when i had my first kiss!
{laugh}
Me: yeah right!
Me: have you ever thought about
quitting to settle down?
Tyrese: yeah. it was nothing serious, just a
thought.
Me: What made you want to go bald?
Tyrese: {laugh}
and the truth comes out!!! {i forget tyrese's words, so here's how it's all
summed up: } he had a curly top. some girl made him go bald because she told him
her ideal man was dark skinned tall and had a rubber head. {lol} so he went and
cut his hair and he tried doing a fade but there was a nick in the back that
wouldn't grow back fast so he just cut it all off which was good anyway because
he wanted to impress the girl. but he won't change to impress anyone
now.
Me: how much can you bench press?
Tyrese: 215. 245
max.
Me: what size shoe, pants, and shirt do you
wear?
Tyrese: 11, 36-38, XL.
Me: how do you keep your head
so shiney?
Tyrese: as soon as i cut my hair it just has a natural
glow. like bling bling!
Me: What kind of toothpaste do you
use?
Tyrese: whatever's in my bathroom
Me: What does
Minglin' and Jinglin' mean?
Tyrese: it's just the way you take it.
like if i go to a party: i could mingle, then give someone my number and tell
her to give me a jingle.
{there's more examples but i forgot
them}
Me: if you could perform with anyone dead or alive, who would it
be?
Tyrese: Bobby Brown
Me: i still listen to him. i listen
to the Don't Be Cruel cd all the time {i really do}
Tyrese: yeah,
Bobby Brown and R. Kelly
Me: do you ever fear anyone's competition in
the business like Usher or Sisqo?
Tyrese: nope. when you think of
someone as competition, it starts to get negative. like no one can steal my true
fans. they may say they like usher too but they're more for me. i can't steal
usher's fans away. usher's true fans may like me too but they're more for
him.
Me: Did you ever date any celeberties?
Tyrese: {laugh}
that's a crazy question, kim. i can't answer that because i don't wanna give
other people's privacy. but i've had my share.
that's it. it was so much better hearin him say it but this is still good.
