Real Housewives of Beverly Hills newcomer Bozoma Saint John quickly became a fan favorite in her debut season…but she says that not everyone was entirely happy with her dealings on the show.
“I remember in maybe the first or second week that I was a part of all of the filming and having the conversations with the women, one of the producers came to me and he was just like, ‘You know, Boz, you resolve issues too fast,'” she said on a recent episode of Nice Talk With Nikki Ogunnaike. “And I was like, ‘I’m sorry, what?'”
She continued, “I was like, ‘I don’t understand what you’re talking about.’ Because that’s what I do. That’s what I’ve been trained to do. That’s what I do in leadership. If you have conflict or issues, that’s gonna cost you time and money. So I am trained to quickly identify, ‘Here’s the problem right here. Let’s solve that.’ So what was happening and what I found myself becoming was the person in the group who could see very clearly what the issue was and just call that, instead of trying to go round and round and round. In the business world, you have to be direct.”
Viewers appreciated Boz’s no-nonsense approach to the drama but now will be looking to see if the corporate executive steps in to shut the drama down so quickly, or whether she takes the producer’s advice and lets the drama play out.
