Misses Queen nothing wrong with working and using a nanny for help though

I just thought it was commendable to hear that statement from a celebrity it is very rare for a celebrity to put an end to their stardom to exclusively care for their children

oh please...Life doesn't stop once you have a child and neither do your dreams. I hear what she's saying but she's not any better than the mothers who need help because they're working toward a future for themselves and their children.

Yea but she choice to terminate her "bag" so that her children may lead healthy lives with full support and dedication from their mother. I dont know about anybody else but if I worked my butt off to have a singing career and I started making millions, I dont know if I could stop. Some could see that is being a lil selfish but what she did was extremely self-less.

@@ValerieAbena Theres also nothing wrong with taking care of ur children. She has FOUR. All want attentiom and need her with no father present

It's mad genuine and just so touching.

Loved that part!! Makes me so happy to know what she’s talking about

It brought me to tears! I felt her💕

All the emotion was the coca

Brittany Gail-Regula how you know that ?

I agree with you but more importantly she's a real mom who wants a real connection with her children. These ritzy moms who allow nannies to raise their children, will one day wonder why their kids are belching the alphabet & possess the mannerism of their nanny... basically they won't recognize their own children ijs.

Totally agree. Couldn’t have said it better myself. One of a kind.

I wouldn't exactly call her a celebrity.

Right💯💯💯

@@cyndie-anjellvernet4114 you said it perfectly! 🎯

I swear

That statement hits deep. I can't imagine not seeing my child everyday. A child's love is the purest thing! Only my creator can keep me from such a divine blessing. Thank you Nivea for sharing your story. Blessings and love to her and her beautiful children💕

💯💯💯💯

Your story touched me so much. You are a beautiful and talented soul. Keep doing what you're doing.❤

THAT PART!!! ❤❤❤❤

Amazing

Amen!

No shade but which one of these Instagram hoes Insta famous groupies who had kids you've heard them showcase that type of love for there children

That shit made me tear up 🤦🏽‍♂️😂

Much respect to her

She’s not stupid. Going dark on them will ruin her comeback. She played her cards right.

Right I take pride in people who don't blame others. She could be bitter about have to give up her career for her kids. If she came out wit some new jawn I would listen. Her voice is beautiful.

NATALIE WHITE I agree she is unselfish and raw...she has my support

I was definitely wondering if she did them. That jaw kept moving like Bobby Browns.

She had a stroke from the stress of motherhood. It wasn't drugs.

Sean Adams, when did she have a stroke?

Damn I was wondering why she kept messing with her nose

She absolutely looks high or drunk one of the 2 she’s slurring her words.. I love her heart for her kids but she seems like she’s been through a lot and she’s using something to cope with the pain.

They need to respect her as the mother to their children!

@@zoradaughter exactly. I dont understand how that makes her "a real one".

she's a real one because she respects her 2 deadbeat baby daddies?

@@Cargo_Bay fr shame. This is like "hood" mentality.

@@Deenique16 without her two baby daddies her kids wouldnt be here. her kids r the ones to save her n be there for her caz no one else is.she loves them so much...so despite how her baby daddies might be toward her and her kids...she respects them... for being succesful for once helping her with her music or whatever else and granting her with her angels that will be by her side till the end.... theres a point in life when life beats you and breaks u over and over then you start counting your blessings and count your blessings... till u cant live with no hate in your heart...you start to see the light in everything and start understanding nothing is the end ... it takes a big person to say that.....not hood mentality at all...its called being woke . and not sinking down to her baby daddies level shes above them despite what they may have material wise...she has a soul and a understanding of life...she forgave them in her soul... so she wont be stuck and hurt , now she can progress with wisdom and love .

Yeah definitely

Early in the video, she said she didnt want to be a nurse and just get by...as if getting an education and becoming a nurse isn't respectable. Maybe being a nurse wasnt for her, but clearly her priorities have always been in the wrong place.

Truth B Told I think she meant financially. Although nurses make a good salary it’s not the kind of salary her talent would provide for her as a singer.

Truth B Told She didn't say it wasn't respectable, she said it was a job that would make her "just be ok" financially, and she didn't want that for her future.

Men are forced into it. At least you guys get to have an abortion if you aren't ready. If a man isn't ready he gets the label deadbeat

She seems high or drunk

Nesa Joyner: You Ned to stop hating and get yourself a life you 🖤demon.

TRUTH SPOKEN YOU BROKE IT ALL THE WAY DOWN SOOOOOO TRUE YOU CA N HAVE EVERYTHING BUT IF YOUR MENTAL IS SUFFERING NOTHING MATTERS LORD I FEEL HER ON SI MANY LEVELS TRUE QUEEN RIGHT THERE !! 😥❤💙💜💛💖😊

You Are Entitled To Your Opinion BEAUTIFULLY SAID❗️❤️

You Are Entitled To Your Opinion Beautiful compliment 😊

You ain't said nothing but a word! I second this motion and am mad this is JUST NOW popping up in my recommendations :( NIVEA GIRL!

Yeah I hope so to, in the past she has tried, but in today's age you can't wait on no man, or a label to put your music out, it's gonna be up to her to put an album/project together and distribute it...because that's what fans want

@Andre Johnson believe it or not she has wrote major hits for other people that was bangers

Andre Johnson Her songs weren't hits?! Then why am I about to go on a nostalgic Nivea song listening spree,10+ years later? Lmao, maybe you're too young to remember, but her songs were super popular. They're still good, too, because I was inspired just now to go re-bang them. ;)

Andre Johnson Bruh I tend to agree with you but just watching her I think about a young cute girl with talent getting just ran through by dudes, managers and industry execs because she was shy and naive, I got two daughters and PLEASE BELIEVE "The Dream" would have been a "The Reality" and "Lil Wayne" would have been "So Sane" if them were my grand kids...#GETTHESTRAP

No , its over with..lets be honest

amen queen

Yes, and unfortunately had dealings with drugs, which is why she kinda does that with jaw and teeth. Still very beautiful and sweet

The reason why so many black women walk around carrying so much hurt and pain

This is always so true we give up EVERYTHING for our family and sometimes we have nothing to show for ourselves

There's no doubt about that.

Ill luv the hell out them to when both they daddys rich an she dont have to work an live off child support🤷🏾‍♀️

Oh my gosh ,this is sad, I always wonder where is nivea

I agree it’s fucked up that woman don’t really get the chance to pilot ..there always reduced to stewardess

Haven’t seen it but I’m about to watch it asap ! She’s so dope I never knew it

@@spicysizzling1600 yslaaaaas

I agree with you @ shirelle fk

Yes that's a shame, she looks uncomfortable, they could've told her to close her legs

Thank you for posting this comment

I could tell because her mouth moves like Bobby Brown and he don't do drugs anymore as well but they mouth moves the same so I do believe as well she either has a stroke or was on some type of drug but her story is so touching and the way she talk do highly about the fathers is awesome she didn't put them down even though she could because of their actions God Bless her and I wish nothing but happiness for her 💜💖

I knew that something was off. I’ll pray for her comeback and sobriety.

First blessings to you for overcoming. Most people are unable to. Secondly I knew off the bat bcuz her mannerisms. Man listen.

You right same here

Hanna Bee I said the same thing.... whatever has happened in her life is what alot of ppl go through on a daily basis. People fail to realize she's just as human as you and me. I loved this interview and I'm glad she's making new music.

@@yoshi1288 Facts, but of course the ones that are judging and shaming are not happy with themselves.

Yessss! Beautiful!👍👍👍♥️

Has me in tears! Do you hear me! 😭

She got child support checks

Very kind words. God bless you!

Legend? Nah

wore that first album out #JE #dontmess

I thought the same thing

Lmaoooo that part always gets me

Right!!

Eboni, she needed a youtube channel. those multi colored cascading remi weaves have got to go . we needs napps back.

Yes she has

Ebonita Applebum definitely

I think you're right about that, but everything happens when it's time. And it is clearly her time, and I am so happy 😊 for her! I see so much more in store for Nivea. I truly do!

@@PHlophe she's too busy taking care of her kids

Amen

@@Influencerjuxy what

Me2

I also raised 4 kids alone

@@leahrenee6639 …you misunderstood…what I’m saying is that most people in Hollywood or in the entertainment industry are extremely selfish and wouldn’t think twice about putting their job over their family and children’s well-being…she raised four kids instead of focusing on her career… I wasn’t just complimenting her just because she raised four kids

Why start having kids, she ruined her life by having kids, she should have waited to have kids until her 30’s.

She had 3 kids in under a year

@@rustecohle591 A lot of women HAVE to look for jobs and go to work in other to put food on the table. If she didn't have to, that's because she could afford not to (thanks to decent amount of child support and what not)

My heart hurt because of that same reason. I don't have kids and could not imagine putting my life on hold so young.

Kenya Vernon yes I can agree I'm a single mother of 4 and it is very hard even when you put the child's father on child support and they pay whenever they want and you still have no help raising them...I cried with her when she talked about her dreams on hold to give her kids her everything because that was me also. I pray she continues to follow her dreams now...I'm praying for her and her kids.

Yes!! So relatable! I was over here in tears!

I am a school bus driver and I LOVE it, but, I had to retire to be a stay at home mom to my autistic son so I can so relate to having to put your babies first and that comes with sacrifices.

blah blah single mom blah..YOU DECIDED that for your life when YOU decided to have kids with a deadbeat

Makes for hard times

Amen

❤️

She is on something the way she grinds her teeth.

@@jesterchester8428 OOOOO! IM SO GLAD U SAID IT! I NOTICED IT & REWINDED A COUPLE OF TIMES, I KNO THT BEHAVIOR BUT I WANTD TO GIVE HER THE BENEFIT OF THE DOUBT, SO I WENT SCROLLING THRU THE COMMENTS. SO YEA SHE DEFINITELY HIT HER A GUD LINE OR 2 B4 THIS INTERVIEW, & TBH ITS OK ADDICTION IS A DISEASE THT CONSTANTLY HAS TO B CHKD. so if she relapsed its not a big deal, happens to the best of us, so just dust it off & get it togethr. Im a huge fan Nivea & I always will be.💚

Blame society. Then women EXPECT a man to provide and take care of them. Just like how woman decide to stay home and get fat. I say lets both get out there and chase are dreams and screw what society says. Be a team and raise the family equally.

Zanaya Vails yeh and that’s the issue. These sisters need to stop breeding with the same type of men 🤦🏽‍♀️

@emon davenport thank u n well said👏👏👏👏

She basically told how her lack of discipline lead to her current situation... Someone needed to save Nivea from Nivea, but better believe she was doing what she liked.

davenport She didn't sacrafice her life for just anyone, she sacraficed her life for her children. Unlike a lot of men, its hard for women to part from their children. When I was kid, my mother used to say that a mother is full time job, a mother's pay for that job is knowing she gave them unconditional love and knowing they will alright when comes time for them to her nest.

I think about us all day. Dream about you always. Love ain't always complicated. Man I love that song

HighTopDripDrop Kelis?

I never thought she was weird.

she definitely was not the “weird” black girl.

Kiana Thomas Maybe not weird but different. Especially style wise! People didn’t like her hairstyles when she first stepped on the scene, even still now people make fun of the hairstyles she had!

No she wasnt

Word bet b playing themselves this not black lives matter this stupid at the more I read the more I want go cry cuz I can't even help myself

This young woman make that Mama in me want to hug and hold her and tell her every thing is gonna be all right my daubhter...hold her til all the tears stop and everything becomes a rainbow...of love, strength and wisdom...and she is made whole....I love her with a healing lov...let there be light....

East Oakland I agree if she was drunk or high which it appears to be! They should of waited a couple of hours! If she has had health issue then that should of been disclosed at the end...

Jerm D she needs to get that child support from all her ghetto baby daddies

the good suffer for the bad she has a good heart an men like that dump on her a move on

Damnnn look at you!! Yes this touched me always loved Nivea!!

Lil Wayne and the dream ain't shitt! Damn shame they don't take care of their kids!!!!

🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾 BET aint shit.

Amen❤

That's because women allow it people only do to you what you allow but God! She is about to blow their minds watch

She's not gonna give up that much I can say but God's gonna continue to bless her

THIS right here is why some people were saying what they were when Cardi got pregnant. They weren’t hating just going off of shit like this for a long time if you had a baby you could kiss your career bye...why y’all think chilli got that abortion when TLC was poppin cuz shit like this happened all the time.

Neo SoulZ Exactly!! I am like what is she talking about? We all have choices in life and you have to deal with the outcome of the choices that you make!

I agree this really sucks . Her kids are beautiful though but fathers could've helped .Come on now .

👏👏👏👏👏👏👏❤

Me either.. I was like damn thats Nivea

I peeped that! Tears rolling and she looking around for a person to give her tissues that never came!

Exactly! Give her tissue, and water!

Nivea had some bops though and a unique sound. Sigh.....I don't know something about this interview.. doesn't sit well. I wish her the best frfr.

That's it

How could she do both? 4 kids is a lot to handle.

RIGHT!!! Pursue your dreams & accomplish your goals. ❤💯

Jasmine Pres but the issue is that she was married to the dream. He divorced her and left her hanging. She was already successful at the time but everything went left. It's kinda hard to predict. What if Jay Z left Bey.... And what if Bey too was against having a nanny? Nivea didn't mention it in this interview but her mom also died in the midst of all of this. Probably don't have the family to help

The men never said let me sit down and let her drop an album

That broke my heart

@@bhalette4153 shows insecurity for women being independent

@@taiodus3401 Society places so many pressures on women that is difficult for women to find their place in this world. I am about to turn 37 and I don't have or want children. Literally, everyday, I have to check someone about not having kids. Then you have women who have 1 child and society says she should have more children. Then there are mothers who hire nannies to help out with the kids and people still complain. Society acts as if women are never woman enough. I'm sick of it. Women need support. It takes a village. People are so quick to judge and the last to offer help.

Made me teary eyed 😿
