This is an interesting listen!

Some highlights include:
Judy was down to three girls between Jaimee, Countess Vaughn, and the singer Aliyah.
Her father was abusive to her mom and she fled with Jaimee and her sisters to CA to get away from him.
Jaimee's mother knew season four was gonna be Judy's last season but didn't know how to tell her until Jaimee straight up asked her.
She was a singer with her sisters and signed to Shaq's record company for two years post Family Matters.
She gave her mom permission to use her trust fund when they were out of money.

Thanks for the link!

Jaimee sounds very savvy about the industry.

The way she learned the truth was awful. I wish her mom had been honest with her, so that she could have known what was going on in that last episode. (Actually, I wish the producers had been willing to give Jaimee a half an episode; it definitely could have been done). But at least Jaimee knows Miller-Boyette were notorious for writing off characters with no explanation: it wasn't anything she or her mom did.

It's sad knowing she was sad about it, but it's cool that she continued auditioning.

Yeah its too bad she was close to other gigs but was either cut last min or messed up like with The Game.

At least she acknowledges she messed up with The Game. So many people don't have the ability to see where they went wrong. She totally acknowledges she messed that gig up.

Agreed! I’d love to see her on something someday

I wonder why nothing else happened for her after leaving the Family Matters show. She could've joined another show.

God bless you and her always!!!
