- Hi guys, my name is Reginae Carter,
and this is my worst date ever story.
(eerie bass music)
I used to be on this show with this girl and I met,
it was like, I think that's her cousin or something.
It was at her party.
And I had my cute sparkly dress on.
She had like a dress-up type of party
that we had to come dressed up and suited and booted.
He had on his black suit.
He was light-skinned, pretty hair.
Real cute, you know?
He played basketball overseas.
I'm Sorry if I'm giving too much info.
You see this, I'm sorry, baby.
But yeah, he was so cute though.
Well that night, he just kept looking at me
and I was looking at him too, you know.
He was cute, I was cute.
So that's how it was like, all right,
and I guess he hit up his cousin and he was like,
"Hey, you know, send her my number."
"Let her know I wanna talk to her."
And I'm like, "Oh, this all crazy
'cause I was looking at him and I was gonna
ask you who he was."
And it so happened that we was kinda talking
about the person so...
She sent me his number and then boom, we started texting.
So we decided that we wanted to go into a drive-in date.
He was wearing like, you know how basketball players dress.
He was wearing his little Nike suit, just whatever.
And it was real chill.
I had on some pants with like the oversized hoodie
or something like that.
It was just really, "Listen, we're gonna go watch a movie."
"I'm cute, I don't have to get made up for you."
And I decided to drive.
Worst decision ever.
I have a bad habit of changing cars.
I changed cars so much, but I think it was like
the GLE Mercedes Benz.
Yeah, it was that one.
We get in the car and I'm like,
"Okay you know, put your seatbelt on."
An he's like, "You ain't gonna kill me, right?"
"You ain't gonna..."
"You ain't gonna di di di di di."
And I just feel like, "Bro, what are you talking about?"
"You're jinxing me, like..."
So I'm like, "Okay, no boy I've been driving,
and I never get into no reg, no fender benders, nothing."
"Boom, like, I'm gonna get you there."
We gonna watch this movie and it's gonna be it."
It was not snowing in Atlanta,
but it was ice all on the streets everywhere.
But, I thought it dried up. (chuckles)
I don't know why, but I thought it dried up.
So I'm like pulling out of my subdivision
and I turned and I'm heavy on the gas, like my,
I'm very, I drive fast, whatever.
So I pull out, I'm like, "Okay, whatever."
I speed off. It's a red light.
So I'm kind of like, "Time to slow down."
I've never in my life went through this.
The car would not stop.
It was not stopping.
I was sliding on ice.
And I hit the car in front of me.
I looked at that dude, I said, "You like, you jinked me!"
Well, I'm not sure what type of car it was.
It was like a truck though.
It was full of like college students.
They were all young, which worked out in my favor
because I didn't want the police to get involved.
So we all pulled over.
First of all, he was like, looking at me.
He wasn't saying nothing.
He was just like, "Like what's going on?" (laughing)
"Like, you told me you could drive."
But I'm like, "Bro I just slid on ice."
"I don't never do this."
"Like I'm thinking that it dried, it dried up."
"Like what's up?"
So we go to the side like,
it was like a Crisco's parking lot or something.
And I'm like, "Listen, how much am I gonna pay you?"
"I don't want the, and you know, we have a date."
"I don't want the police coming
and it's just some nonsense."
"I'll pay for whatever you want."
I'm calling my manager and my mamma.
'Cause those, you know they wanted to call the police on me.
That was like, I mean like, "Look at my car."
And I'm like, "I know, but I got you."
I'm like, "Listen to me."
I did tell them who I am because I'm like,
"Listen, I ain't no,
oh I'm not all no fake stuff, no phony."
"I'm gonna get you right."
So after I told them who I am, they're like, "Okay."
You know, they felt a little comfortable, but...
They decided like, "Okay, we'll take the money."
"We'll hush."
I love them. (giggles)
So I paid the people and we get back in the car
and I didn't decide to go on the date.
We went right back up the street to the house where he lived
because he was bad luck.
And I kept telling him, I'm like, "You bad luck."
Like, "You jinxed me."
"I never got into any type of fender bender."
Nothing like that.
And then my car was all messed up.
I'm like, I wasn't going to drive-through
with a wrecked car.
Nah, he just wasn't for me.
And it just wasn't the guy for the date.
Like the whole date was messed up.
So it's like, "What car I'm gonna drive through next?"
"You don't live here."
I don't think he lives here.
So I'm like, "Hey, we gonna have to wait." (chuckles)
My biggest lesson that I learned was slow down.
I'm grad, Reginae Carter.
And that was my worst date ever.
(eerie bass music)
- At this point, the second friend comes in
to tell me I look familiar.
And she's like trying to figure out where she knows me from.
And she, you know she figured it out.
And then after, she saying she's a, like an actor too.
She's on a TV show.
She showed me pictures on set.
You know, she's telling me story lines.
She's telling me about who the cast is.
And I never heard about this show before.
And she's like, "No, you should've already be in tune."
"Like I'm gonna be famous."
"I'm gonna be this and that."
Listen, I ain't sign up for this.
