Leave it to Love & Hip Hop's Erica Mena to say something so foul that even I am offended, and I am not easily offended at all. You can't watch what I have to watch and get grossed out easily, right? š As you know, Erica's story line was her new lesbian relationship with Cyn Santana and the resulting love triangle with former beau and sometimes manager Rich Dollaz.
After a volatile season and reunion, even Cyn seemed convinced that Erica was still head over heels in love with Rich. Of course, after lots of screaming and Rich acting like b*tch (seriously dude, just be a gentleman), Erica swore up and down that her feelings were gone. He had hurt her one time too many and only seemed to want her when he couldn't have her. I mean, he did, but she still had a girlfriend. Ā Y'all know. Like me, no matter how insane it gets, you can't get enough of it. I blame Mona Scott Young!

In a recent interview with Sister2Sister, Erica dishes on the status of her relationship now, and how the fans reacted to her loving a lady. She even teases the possibility of a spin-off, although I think it's not much more than a tease. Check it out below!
How do you think you were portrayed this season?
It is what it is. They show you the best of what happened. I donāt pay attention to how I look, how Iām portrayed. People got a good sense of how I love and who I am in my relationships. I donāt think people really got to see the good side of me and Richās relationship like they do with me and Cyn.
What did people miss out on in terms of you and Rich?
Heās definitely a b!tc#, but he has some non- b!tc# tendencies. He actually could be a man if he wanted to.
You and Cyn Santana have been getting a lot of love. Has there been any homophobic backlash?
No, because weāre both two attractive females. What society is used to is us being against each other. The fact that weāre with each otherā¦it makes people question us because itās not something thatās common. We deal with a lot of people who are in doubt about what our relationship is, if itās real or not. I canāt see myself playing into something just to keep America entertained. In time, people will start to accept it. Ā Itās not common for lipstick lesbians to be so into each other like we are and have each otherās back. Itās as real as it gets. For now, all we deal with is doubters. People are always going to be homophobic because itās just something that people are still trying to accept. Weāre going to always deal with that, but our main issue right now is that itās just hard for people to believe, but itās as real as it gets.
Whatās your response to people who say your relationship is narcissistic since you two look somewhat like?
I donāt see it. I donāt see it at all. You are what you eat. Iāll just leave it at that.
Not too long ago, you tweeted that you and Cyn were getting a spin-off. Is that happening?
I asked what do you guys think to kind of see what the response would be. I was actually surprised. A lot of people who want us to have our own show than I actually thought. Thereās nothing to confirm or deny right now. Weāre gearing up for season 5 soon. We have to sit and wait and see how everything plays out.
Okay, do I even have to comment on that next to the last answer? Really, Erica? And don't get me started on her bull about not "playing into something just to keep America entertained" as that is what being a reality star is all aboutā¦isn't it? At least it is very, very entertaining!
