Paula Jai Parker opened up to VladTV about meeting Nia Long through O.J. Simpson's daughter Arnell before she started filming Friday. Parker explained that Nia always had her back on set, and Long became an ally because she had already worked with Ice Cube and was friends with a lot of other people on set. 

During the conversation, Paula also spoke about learning about the Hollywood game while filming Friday, which you can hear more about above.
