"  Part Puertorique\u00F1a and Ecuadorian megatalent Adrienne Bailon, has been crushing this year. Empire Girls, her reality show with BFF Julissa Bermudez, was a huge hit for the Style Network, and she has three movies coming out (The Coalition which is available on DVD and Elixir and I&amp;#039;m in Love With a Church Girl both set to release next year), an album being released next year and a kickass nail polish line set to release soon. So I caught up with my old classmate (yes we went to high school together) to find out about everything from her latest projects to her infamous tattoo. How did the show Empire Girls come about? The show was Julissa Bermudez&amp;#039;s idea. My friend Julie and I call ourselves the Latina Laverne and Shirley. We have the craziest life, so we thought it would be cool to have a reality show. What is the hardest part of filming a reality show? Being your self. It&amp;#039;s so much easier to play a character. You have to be prepared for the fact that peeps may not like you. What&amp;#039;s the hardest part about being in this industry? Not giving up. Understand that life is journey. I haven&amp;#039;t achieved the success I wanted to achieve yet but that&amp;#039;s OK\u2014it&amp;#039;s coming. Tell me about your new album. I&amp;#039;m so excited about it. The first single drops this year and will be released in both English and Spanish. We&amp;#039;ve got so many great peeps working on the album like Neyo, Don Omar, Pitbull, and Daddy Yankee. Tell me about your Fingertip Fetish nail polish line. I have an odd fetish with nails. I was always doing beauty blogs about nails, and it would be on Fridays called &amp;quot;Friday&amp;#039;s Fingertip Fetish.&amp;quot; It became so popular that a nail polish company approached me and Fingertip Fetish was born. Tell me about your clothing line. One of my goals is to have this incredible body. I want to be strong, to be ripped. So I teamed up with lady footlocker for their Fashionably Fit campaign. Statistics show that if you wear an outfit that makes you look good you work out more efficiently at the gym. We don&amp;#039;t have the name of the line yet, but it&amp;#039;s coming.  Are you and the Kardashians still cool? Yes we are super cool\u2014love that family! Are you still friendly with Rob? Yes. What about the tattoo of Rob&amp;#039;s name on your booty? It&amp;#039;s almost gone. I&amp;#039;ve been getting it removed. What do you use on your beautiful wavy hair? When my hair is curly, I use Suave coconut conditioner. It&amp;#039;s not a leave in, but I use it like one. It is so light and really brings out my hair&amp;#039;s curl. A lot of leave-ins are too heavy, but this one is just perfect. When it&amp;#039;s straight, I love Frederick Fekkai Tech Shampoo &amp;amp;amp; Conditioner and their Olive Oil glossing cream. What is your best hair advice? Invest in good clip-in extensions! I love Extensions Plus. I don&amp;#039;t like to break my own hair, so get clip in extensions. What are three things you always keep in your makeup bag? 1. L&amp;#039;Oreal True Match W-7 Foundation. 2. Maybelline Mineral Powder Finishing Veil. 3. L&amp;#039;Oreal Voluminous Lash. "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
