She was mentored by an older pimp named Sir Charles. Momma Dee learned the tips and tricks of making good money in the sex trade. She started the business from her own bedroom, which she eventually turned into a brothel. She ran that brothel for 10 long years under the pseudonym "Lady Dee."

Controversies
