LisaRaye McCoy has always been one to tell it like it is, and now the actress has revealed that she was offered a spot to be part of the ‘Real Housewives‘ franchise.

During an interview with The YBF podcast, LisaRaye revealed that several seasons ago she was approached about joining the cast but declined, for good reason.

“I politely gave them the ‘No thank you,’ I actually have a legitimate career.”

“I’m really not a fan of reality TV right now. It’s so much buffoonery and so much negativity that I’m shocked at the sh-t that they show.

“I’m just like – that’s how you would treat your friend? I can’t be in a scene like that because then it would turn real for me and then it would be no more scenes because I would tear that mutha up and I’d be sued. I’m too old for certain sh*t and I refuse to showcase that kind of stuff on TV being a grown, respectable woman.”

She did however let the outlet know that she’s happy for fellow actress Garcelle Beauvais for joining ‘The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills’ as the first black housewife on the series.

She also opened up on her on set drama with Stacey Dash during the filming of ‘Single Ladies’ on VH1 years ago.

“When that night happened and she flipped out, I don’t believe it was personal at all,” she explained. “I don’t believe she was just coming after me because she’s really not that kind of person. She just got it twisted and f*cked up real quick. She felt like she could talk to me in a way of which I was just going to sit down is the only thing I can think of.”

“I could have torn her head off,” she said.
