Was it uncomfortable transitioning into a “sex symbol” or is this just another side of you that we never see?
I’m such a fucking lady. I loved to get glammed up. I love manis and pedis. I like to go to Vicky Secrets and La Perla because I like lace and bikinis. I’m such a P.Y.T. (Pretty Young Thug)What are you doing to stay in shape?
Work out. Working out is like a stress reliever.What is your favorite body part?
I don’t have just one. I love all parts of my body! But on a man, I love the Adonis line. It’s just so sexy!What type of clothes do you wear to make you look sexy?
It depends on the look and how I’m feeling that day.

DA BRAT “PART 1″ (SPEAKS ON SERVING TIME, WRITING A BOOK & MORE) |
DA BRAT: Hi Angel!ANGEL: Hey what’s up Da Brat? Thank you for sitting with us and talking to us.
DA BRAT What’s happening? I’m chillin, chillin’. Just got finished eating me some steamed vegetables and tilapia.
ANGEL: Ok, I was going to ask you, what was one of the first things you did when you got out?
DA BRAT I went to this restaurant in the country called the Huddle House and had me some country fried steak w/ a lot of gravy on it and some mushrooms. It was good as hell.
ANGEL: [laughs] That’s wassup. Yeah that’s the first thing a lot of people do right? Get that food.
DA BRAT Un huh.
ANGEL: So, we know you completed three years in prison..
DA BRAT Two and a half, two and a half years. And I’m on an ankle monitor right now. They got me on house arrest right now. they just won’t leave me alone.
ANGEL:Yeah I read that you were going to be on probation for seven more years?
DA BRAT Yeah probation seven years. I’m on parole til August and I’m on an ankle monitor right now, I can’t leave the house. At least I’m in the comfort of my own spot and I’m getting everything setup right now.
ANGEL: Well we hit up the Concrete Loop twitter followers earlier and told them that we would be speaking with you and one of the questions they asked the most is ‘What have you learned from your prison experience”?
DA BRAT I learned not to take things for granted so much. A lot of things that I had right at my feet. When it’s kind of taken away from you and you can’t do those things anymore, you really really learn to appreciate them more. Like studio time, a lot of times J.D. might be like “Brat, come to the studio” and I was like “naw I’ll be there later.”[laughs] I would go to sleep and not go but when you in prison you wish you could go. You can do the things you have a passion for, you wish you could hug and kiss your family when you want to. I missed flying back and forth to Chicago every week to see my family. My grandmother had been sick so and losing love ones and all that and not being able to go to the funeral. And those things really hit hard when you can’t do things that you are so used to doing. I learned a lot of patience as well, you know in prison you can’t just flip out on somebody…you kinda just gotta be like “okay, okay..” You just mind your own business.
After serving 3 years in prison for hitting a cocktail waitress over the head with a rum bottle, rapper Shawntae “Da Brat” Harris is finally free. The 36 year-old Joliet, IL-native was welcomed back by her friend, producer Jermaine Dupri in a tweet yesterday. Although she has completed her sentence, the So So Def rapper was temporarily released from prison back in May 2010 and worked as a full-time window maker.
Rumor has it, the rapper is currently ‘on house arrest and is required to notify her parole officer whenever she has to leave her home for doctor’s appointments or emergencies.’ …Either way, welcome back to the Brat-Tat-Tat!
Word on the street is that funny man Steve Harvey sent his ex-wife Mary Harvey (Shackelford) a Valentine’s Day gift. 
The 54-year old television and radio host supposedly showered Mary with a cute bouquet of flowers and a large box of chocolates three days after Valentine’s Day…only there weren’t just chocolates inside in the red box:
