I realized at a certain point…I could never go back and be a normal girl again.
So I started developing my management and said, I might as well keep doing the best I can.
How do you describe your hosting style?
Its like half Conan OBrien, half a female version of Howard Stern.
I do a monologue and all that.
I didnt go to Harvard like Conan, so Ive really had to study.
What types of segments are you most excited about doing?
If you know me, you know Im very sex positive.
We have a full segment of sex and relationship questions that are very extreme.
Its a no-judgment zone.
You have a lot of celebrity friends.
Are you afraid of burning any bridges with your commentary?
Im not Wendy Williams.
Im not disconnected from this industry.
I live it, so Im never going to come from a bad place.
Thats not what my show is about.
Will any of those friends show up?
We have a really cool lineup of celebrities.
But I cant tell you it has to be a surprise.
Have you considered changing your signature look for primetime?
I might want to come out and switch things up a bit, but Im not sure.
Ill probably stick to my bald head, for the simple fact that I hate hair.
Ive had my hair cut for 14 years people dont know that.
I feel like I kind of lose my swag when I put hair on my head.
Any Oprah-level giveaways to come onThe Amber Rose Show?
Id love to give out dildos and throw them into the crowd.
That would be fing epic.
How did you meet Dr. Phil, anyway?
I did a whole segment about slut shaming onThe Doctors[in 2015].
He saw it and was like, We need to do a show with this girl.
I get him, he gets me.
Hes a mentor of mine.
I like to consider him a male feminist, as well.
Youve appeared in several skits with Amy Schumer on her Comedy Central show.
Whats your relationship like?
Our conversations are extremely vulgar and disgusting, but in a really funny way.
Like, extremely sexual acts that we probably have never done.
Thats just our relationship.
Its always fun talking to Amy, because shes just so ridiculous.
Youre known for publicly speaking out against slut shaming.
How do you think thats affected your career?
Its definitely helped me.
I dont mind taking the punches and the criticism I do it for other women.
People think I go about it in a very controversial way, but life is controversial….
If you look at my Instagram bio, it says Im a certified slut.
If Im a slut for dating and being single, fine, Ill be that.
The Amber Rose Showpremieres July 8 at 11 p.m. on VH1.
