Andria Mayberry Explains How Bryshere ‘Yazz The Greatest’ Gray Works Through His ADHD

Andria Mayberry: Before five years old, it’s kind of hard to diagnose a child with ADHD, so when he became five, the school system… they had a lot of issues, behavior issues with him. And they decided, they said, “Well, he may need to be evaluated.” So I had to open my mind. Because at first I was like, “No, not my child.” But in order to effectively help him, again, I had to open my mind. And say, “let me just try it and see what happens and go from there.”

Adrienne Houghton: A lot of parents might even be offended, like “Wait, what do you mean?”

Loni Love: What were some of the signs? What made you question it?

Andria: What made me question it was, when I would tell him to do things, he wouldn’t do it. And when the school would also say, “Well, he’s getting up out of his seat. He’s walking out of class, out the classroom.” And that made me take notice to say, “Well let me just see, let me just open my mind and see what happens and go from there.“

[The Real audience cheers and claps.]

Loni: Well now he is a very successful and sexy actor. How does he work through it? ‘Cause you know it stays. How does he work through it now?

Andria: Well he doesn’t take the medicine anymore. He does holistic things and he also has an assistant, so the assistant helps him get through his day along with the staff of Empire. They help him with his lines or whatever he needs help with.

About The Real

THE REAL is a daily, one-hour Emmy® and NAACP Image Award nominated talk show on Fox Television Stations and in national syndication (check local listings), with a rebroadcast on cable network BET. Led by bold, diverse and outspoken hosts – Adrienne Houghton, Loni Love, Jeannie Mai and Tamera Mowry-Housley — these women reflect the home audience and unapologetically say what women are actually thinking. Their unique perspectives are brought to life through their candid conversations about topics ranging from their own personal lives to the news of the day to beauty, fashion and relationships. Emmy® nominated for Outstanding Talk Show/Entertainment in its second season, THE REAL is unlike other talk shows, since each of the hosts are admittedly a “work in progress,” and fearlessly invites the viewers into their lives. Their fresh points of view, youthful energy and passion have turned the traditional talk show on its head. Produced by Telepictures Productions and distributed by Warner Bros. Domestic Television Distribution, The Real originates from Los Angeles. Rachel Miskowiec (Good Morning America, Katie, The Tyra Banks Show, Judge Hatchett, The Ricki Lake Show) is Executive Producer.
