00:00Hi, it's Lil' Kim, the Queen Bee, and welcome to my Ebony cover photoshoot.
00:13Yo, Ebony has always been good to me.
00:17They have always been so beautifully black and gorgeous and just everything about it.
00:22Ebony has always like showed me the love and the respect and always giving me my props.
00:27And when you guys called me, I was like, what, hell yeah, hell yeah, and we're going to the
00:32desert.
00:33Oh, we outside.
00:39I love the fact that Ebony was able to let me and my partner Paris, Parisia, really be
00:48in on the creative.
00:49We all have the same vision and this was like the perfect fit.
00:53I'm really loving this.
00:54I can't wait to see this.
00:55I've never done this, by the way.
00:56So this is new to me.
00:57I love it.
00:58Dahl for me is everything.
00:59You know, when I first came into the game, I literally hit it off with Marc Jacobs.
01:07I hit it off with Donna Teller.
01:09They're still my best friends to this day.
01:11I didn't think they would embrace me so fast.
01:13I really wasn't prepared for it, to be honest with you.
01:16I was at the tables with them like, what?
01:19I was like looking at y'all as a kid, like, oh, I can get me some Versace shades one day.
01:26And now it's lit.
