Please state your name, age, relationship status, occupation and where you’re from
Hey everyone my name is Anastasia Mercer [leans in closer to the camera and sounds out “Ana-Sta-See-Ah” then giggles] I am 21, single and not ready to mingle. [softly chuckles, clearing my throat] I’m not really the relationship type of gyal. [shrugs then flips my hair over my shoulder] I am a tattoo artist and I’m from Compton, Cali. [throws up random gang signs then laughs, looking at the camera guy] you can edit that out right?
Tell us about your background (Family, Ethnicity, Schooling, Relationships)
My background? Uh, well my mother is Hispanic and my father is Black so ima a little of both. [chuckles] I graduated high school, signed up for college, went for a week then dropped out [laughs] I already knew what I wanted to be so it was really pointless for me. I’m smart and all but school just really isn’t it for me. [softly chews on my bottom lip] well like I said I have my mother, father and knowing my father I probably have a few brothers and sisters running around. None that I know of though.
What is your favorite song out right now?
Whew I have so many [pulls my phone out, clicking on my music app then goes to the one most played] at the moment it has to be HML by Robb Bank$
Are you connected with anyone on the show?
Yeah, King and I used to be best friends but we kind of..uh, fell off you can say.
Tell us one thing you want the producers and audience to know about you (medical condition, your personality, etc)
Medical wise I was diagnosed with a bipolar disorder but I mean, I think everyone can be a little bipolar sometimes. [chuckles then looks down at my fingers, playing with them] I also have ADHD. [looks back up that the camera] my personality is very bubbly. I love to have fun, make people laugh and just be surrounded by good energy. I am extremely chill, don’t really feed into negative situations or anything like that…life’s to short for all that.
What part of Chicago do you live in (North, South, East West) and how long have you been living in Chicago?
I live in the West side of Chicago and I’ve been living here on and off my whole life. My father is from here so I was bounced back and fourth from Cali and Chicago basically my whole childhood.
Have you lost anyone close to you from the violence that’s overtaking the city?
Sadly yes. I’d be here all day if id try to name them all.
Do you have a favorite place within the city?
Yes, the beaches. I’m in love with them, they remind me of back home.
If you can give a 1 minute speech to the city what would you say?
I would say don’t be quick to judge someone because of what they look like, where their from or what you’ve heard of them, if you don’t know the person personally you have no room to talk about them or dislike them. That’s my thing, when meeting someone I give them my full respect over time I’ll let their personality and actions decide if I like them or not. it may be cliché but you gotta give respect to get respect.
