To Be A Fly On The Wall

Yesterday, on the CBS hit The Talk, Sheryl Underwood revealed a secret.  Sheryl took us on a moving, standing-ovation journey about how she reacted when her friends' true feelings of her--uncensored-- were revealed on a conference call they didn't realize she joined. 

Sheryl admitted that although it stung to hear their true opinions of her, she ultimately triumphed by taking in what they said and forcing their opinion to make her better.  Sheryl never revealed that she heard the conversation uncensored and has since worked with Queens of Comedy fame, Sommore (now on BET), Adele Givens and Laura Hayes without shade or shame.  Academy Award winner Monique (Precious, The Parkers) whom Sheryl was being considered to replace on the tour was not present on the call.

Sheryl concluded her motivational story with being bruised but not broken.  Ultimately, she used that hurt as motivation and that occurrence is why she sits where she sits today-- on a National Network television show that is kicking butt in the ratings and with its competitors.
