Wendy Raquel Robinson

Wendy Raquel Robinson grew up in South Central Los Angeles, which meant navigating gang culture from an early age before dance and acting pulled her toward a different path. That contrast, between the environment she came from and the career she built, is at the center of her Uncensored episode.Most people know Robinson as Principal Regina "Piggy" Grier from The Steve Harvey Show, a role she held for six seasons on The WB, or as sports agent Tasha Mack across the long run of The Game. Those are comedy parts, and Robinson has been consistently nominated and eventually won an NAACP Image Award for her work in the genre. But the Uncensored format gives her room to talk about the setbacks that don't make it into the highlight reel, the parts of the journey that don't fit neatly into the success story version.
