Rosa Mendes Talks About Getting Naked On Total Divas

Rosa Mendes recently spoke with Scott Fishman of The Miami Herald. Below are some highlights:

Being on Total Divas:

“It’s a really big deal. You get more opportunity. You get more matches. So getting the call was really a big surprise. I was literally screaming, crying and jumping for joy, when I was told I would be part of the cast.”

Being outspoken:

“Sometimes the divas are afraid to say how they feel to one another. They’ll smile and shake your hand, then talk behind your back. That’s not me at all. If somebody pisses me off, I’m going to go up to them and tell them that it’s not cool, whether they like it or not. That’s just the way I am. Then we are going to deal with the situation. We are going to shake hands and get over it, or we’re not. I, myself, am a free spirit. I do what I want, when I want. Sometimes it catches the other girls off guard. I’m happy with who I am, and I’m not shy about who I am.”

Showing a little skin on the show:

“When I’m in my apartment, I like walking around naked and in my hotel room. That was kind of weird having the cameras there. Well, this is how I really am. I think people were caught off guard by the fact that I was naked on TV. That’s just who I am.”

More on what to expect on Total Divas:

“I’m also working hard to win a match. I’m getting better in the ring. I’m dealing with trying to get comfortable in the locker room again and fit in. It’s hard when you’ve been gone for so long to be part of the divas’ division and be comfortable in the locker room and be welcomed. Right now, I’m not welcome. I don’t really care what the girls think. I’m going to be myself. Hopefully, they will get used to me being there. You see all this during the season.”
