The HBIC is back in the building!
Tiffany Pollard, best known as New York, styles and profiles a-front of the new issue of Paper magazine.
The stunning spread comes ahead of the much anticipated ‘I Love New York’ reunion, which airs November 23 on VH1.
An enduringly popular figure, Pollard is praised for being the genesis of what reality TV looks like in the current climate.
And, despite being years removed from both her show and ‘Flavor of Love’ (the latter of which introduced her to the masses), her star continues to shine.
Within the feature’s inner pages, Pollard opens up about the reunion special, whether she feels she’s received her flowers, and more.
Join us after the jump…
On Getting Her Due:
“Have I gotten my flowers? Absolutely. I feel like people pay attention. And I get a lot of respect in the streets, as I should, you know.”
On What To Expect From The ‘I Love New York’ Reunion:
“If everybody wants to see me, they’ll be seeing a lot of me. Absolutely. I will be there front and center. Sister Patterson, she’s right there by my side, helping me through this reunion. And obviously, we have the fabulous Vivica A. Fox hosting and there’s going to be secrets and surprises. It’s gonna be fun. And the date is perfect. You know, November 23, the holidays, a big family affair, a gathering, if you will. And that’s what we need.”
On What She’d Be Doing If She Wasn’t “New York”:
“Before I got discovered — literally walking down Hollywood Boulevard — I was a buyer for a clothing store. So I was already in the game a little bit. So I definitely think I would be in fashion. But I do have some other goals, some specific goals that I definitely want to dig into very soon. So you got some new elements over here.”
On “That” Moment With Pumpkin:
“I literally remember how I was feeling in that moment. And I was frustrated. I was p*ssed off. I was angry. I’m just sitting there. And now for that moment to play out like that is a huge meme. I’m like, only if they knew what I was going through. I was not happy with these girls.”

All hail the HBIC!
New York isn’t just TV gold, she’s a Platinum attraction! Here’s hoping we continue to see more of her on our screens moving forward.
