Sarah Krusleski: Why are you studying business?
Troy Brown: So I can make money and stuff.
Krusleski: So what are you going to buy with that money?
Brown: Probably like a car.
Krusleski: What kind of car?
Brown: A ‘lac.
Krusleski: I’ve never heard of a ‘lac.
Brown: A Cadillac.
Krusleski: Oh, a Cadillac! Yeah, do people use that word a lot?
Brown: Black people.
Krusleski: Are you going to buy anything else?
Brown: I’m sure I will.
Krusleski: So what determines fine-ness?
Brown: Booty. Face. You know, nice chest, thin waist.
Krusleski: That’s awesome. So how do you go about picking up these kinds of girls?
Brown: I just go up to them and be like "Sup lil momma."
Krusleski: You’ve been so blas’eacute; the whole time. … What do your tattoos mean?
Brown: Well, this one on my neck is my Dad’s initials. I got them because he died. This one is a tattoo – it says only the strong survive. It’s a dog with a rope. And it’s like surviving, you know? And this one is my initials. And this one is a happy face (turns around to pull down pants) – just kidding.
Krusleski: So what are you going to do today?
Brown: Probably going to look up some stuff on the Internet. And then after that, go to a cafe for an infomercial.
Krusleski: So you’re an actor?
Brown: I’m a model-slash-actor.
Krusleski: So how’d you get into that?
Brown: Well I used to be fat. Then I lost a lot of weight. Then I was pretty cute, I guess.
Krusleski: You’re so mellow. I can’t tell if you’re joking or not.
Brown: I’m not.
Krusleski: That’s cool. You’re the mellowest person I’ve met.
Brown: Really? Thanks … I can finish the question if you want. So… Oh! Well my mom was like, "Troy, you’re really handsome! You should be a model!" And that’s how I started. I’ve already acted in an independent film called The Never-Ending Sadness.
Krusleski: So, how’s it fun? I get nervous on stage.
Brown: You get to meet lots of different people and go lots of different places.
