00:00On this episode of Life in the Sabbling,
00:03what if we got you guys a puppy?
00:05Yeah!
00:06And Christopher's gonna help us find it.
00:08I cannot find the dog that she wants.
00:10This is really frustrating me.
00:12Where is the dog? Where is the dog?
00:15So who's cleaning up the poopy?
00:17Me.
00:18We're going to the vet mall.
00:20I'm trying to find the perfect dress.
00:22Stomach in.
00:24You're so cute!
00:26Is it Taker?
00:28That was the dog's owner.
00:30When is she coming?
00:31Actually...
00:35As creative director of Fat Fashions,
00:37I design clothing, jewelry, fragrances, you name it.
00:40It's a lot of work, but I've come a long way
00:42since my days walking the runway.
00:44I'm a mogul and a model,
00:46and best of all, I'm a mom.
00:48I'm Camoralee Simmons, and this is my Life in the Sabbling.
00:52The fabulous, fabulous.
00:58Bam!
01:02You look great.
01:04We recently shot an ad for PETA
01:06with my beloved, fabulous Zoe.
01:09Are you really naked?
01:11No, I wasn't really naked.
01:14Do you know why Mommy did this campaign?
01:16How?
01:17It's called Be an Angel for Dogs.
01:19So it's to teach people to take care of their dogs.
01:22Zoe!
01:23Oh, I know. Rest in peace, Zoe.
01:26I'm so grateful that I got to shoot this PETA ad
01:29with my Zoe, who recently passed away.
01:39Zoe! We gotta get off!
01:43Zoe! Zoe's a star!
01:46I remember the love and the joy that Zoe brought me,
01:49and I really want my girls to be able to share that experience.
01:54So I was thinking, because you guys are five and eight,
01:58what if we got you guys a puppy?
02:01Yeah!
02:02Yeah!
02:03So what kind of dog do we like?
02:05What kind of dogs do we like?
02:06A miniature poodle?
02:07We like a white poodle?
02:08A standard poodle.
02:09We like a white poodle?
02:10How about let's get a black and white something,
02:12since I want black and you want white?
02:14I like black.
02:15I like black.
02:16I like black and white.
02:17Okay, then do we get a girl or a boy?
02:19Boy.
02:20Simba's a boy.
02:21Simba!
02:22First!
02:23So we should get a girl.
02:24They'll go back together so they don't have to fight.
02:27Yeah.
02:28A black and white girl, what kind?
02:29Pomeranian.
02:30We like Pomeranians, because they're kind of little, right?
02:33Teacup.
02:34Yeah, like a teacup.
02:35Teacup.
02:36Teacup.
02:37Teacup.
02:38So we decided on a girl, black and white, Pomeranian.
02:40Something small, like a teacup.
02:43So Christopher, you're gonna help us get a puppy.
02:46Mm-hmm.
02:48Okay?
02:49I guess, along with all my many other jobs,
02:52Kamara also gave me this job.
02:54It's very important for me to find this dog,
02:56because the girls have their hearts set on it,
02:58and I don't want to disappoint them.
03:00What time is it?
03:01Time for us to go.
03:02What are you doing?
03:03I have to go to a fitting for the Met Ball.
03:05Remember the big ball that I told you I was going to?
03:07Every year, Vogue Magazine hosts
03:09the Metropolitan Museum's Costume Institute Gala,
03:13which is the biggest fashion party, hotness,
03:17fashionable thing in New York City every year.
03:20And Christopher and I are heading out
03:22to make the all-important decision of what to wear.
03:26I want something that's beautiful,
03:27that makes a great statement.
03:29It should be fabulous.
03:30Hi.
03:40Good to see you.
03:42Kevin Hall is a very fabulous designer.
03:45He has dressed Katherine Heigl,
03:48Felicity Huffman, Vanessa Williams.
03:51This is fabulous.
03:53Vanessa Williams boarded this company.
03:54She wore this to the White House.
03:55He dresses the beautiful people,
03:57and he's making a dress for me.
03:59What are you looking for?
04:00We're going to the Met Ball,
04:01which is like the Oscars of fashion.
04:04Right, huge.
04:05We want something that's like fresh and new,
04:07and it has to have volume and glamour.
04:10Like we want train, we want bustle.
04:12Right, right, right.
04:13But we want nice and fitted, that shape.
04:14You're asking for a lot.
04:15Yeah.
04:16That's good, that's good.
04:17We can do it.
04:18Let's do it.
04:19Can we try these on?
04:23We're going to try them on, yeah.
04:30I put a picture here like fat.
04:33Here is what you want.
04:35No, I feel like this is not quite.
04:37What else?
04:38Here.
04:40Come on.
04:41We can't make it to the showroom floor.
04:44Could you make this train more drama though?
04:47No train, but we can push it out with more petticoats.
04:50But is that right for me?
04:52This is strapless and it's pleated and it's young.
04:54Kevin's dresses are beautiful,
04:56but none of them are as, you know,
04:58the bold dress that I want.
05:01This is safe for the Met.
05:02It is.
05:03Yes, this is true.
05:04Okay.
05:05That's all we can do.
05:06What you wear makes a big statement,
05:07so I don't want to blend in with the crowd.
05:10I want something that's, you know, spectacular.
05:13This may work. Let's try it.
05:15This is hand painted, honey.
05:17From which tribe?
05:18This is Indebelli.
05:19The Indebelli tribe.
05:20Yeah, this is fabulous.
05:21We love this.
05:22There's a statement.
05:23What statement is it?
05:24Powerful.
05:25I love it.
05:26Really?
05:27I love it.
05:28They have never seen nothing like this at the Met.
05:30Come on.
05:31I love the dress.
05:32But, you know, this is the costume gala.
05:34You're wearing this dress in front of tons of people,
05:36and it'll be photographed and seen everywhere.
05:38And so I'm gonna take time.
05:39I'm gonna think about it.
05:40You cannot just be, you know, rash about this.
05:43No, but maybe it's not the right one, Kevin.
05:44Don't be scared.
05:45There's a lot riding on it.
05:46I feel like I should have a second opinion.
05:48I don't know.
05:49I don't know.
05:50I don't know.
05:51I don't know.
05:52I don't know.
05:53I don't know.
05:54I don't know.
05:55I don't know.
05:56I don't know.
05:57I don't know.
05:58I don't know.
05:59I think I should have a second opinion on this one.
06:02This is fashion.
06:14Okay, what do you want?
06:16I want...
06:17What do you have with?
06:18Um, chocolate chips, vanilla chips, and is that mango?
06:23I decided to take the girls out for a treat
06:25and also talk with them about the responsibilities
06:28of having a puppy.
06:30So, cheers.
06:31This is to our new puppy that we don't have yet.
06:33And a tasty food.
06:35You guys understand what a big responsibility is
06:38to have a puppy.
06:39Because when I got Zoe, I was young.
06:41I mean, I was a teenager.
06:42I was a little older than you.
06:43But I kept Zoe all my life.
06:45I took her.
06:46I took her.
06:47I took her.
06:48I took her.
06:49I took her.
06:50I took her.
06:51I took her.
06:52I took her.
06:53I took her.
06:54I took her.
06:55Excuse me.
06:58Yes, mommy.
06:59Okay, so who's cleaning up the poopy?
07:01Me.
07:02Me.
07:03Oh!
07:05Okay, so what are you going to do?
07:07Kiss her and hug her.
07:09I love her.
07:10Okay.
07:14This is a puppy contract.
07:16You have to love your puppy.
07:19You have to clean.
07:20Puppets.
07:21Puppets.
07:22Puppets.
07:23Up all poopies.
07:25What else?
07:26Don't be like, oh, time to give the puppy water.
07:31Oh, it's so boring to give the puppy water.
07:34Mm-hmm.
07:35Have a good attitude.
07:36Is that what you're trying to say?
07:37Yeah.
07:38Okay.
07:39So the girls signed their contract.
07:41It's just business 101.
07:42Teaching the girls.
07:43Teaching the girls a thing or two about life.
07:45Sign here on the dotted line.
07:47And now I hope Christopher can bring us a new member of the family.
07:51Okay, great.
07:52Deal.
07:53I'm in a pet store in LA called Puppyland to find the dog that Camara specifically wants.
08:00It says male and you have a little bonus here.
08:01Why is that?
08:02This is a gay dog.
08:03This one is very small.
08:04Oh, look at this.
08:05This is like a little gerbil.
08:06Oh, I do like this dog.
08:07But she told me specifically a black and white female teacup.
08:08Oh, I see.
08:10Oh, I see.
08:11We only care of Yorkies and Maltese here.
08:12We only care of Yorkies and Maltese here.
08:13We only care of Yorkies and Maltese here.
08:14That's it.
08:15That's it.
08:16That's it.
08:17That's right.
08:18That's right.
08:19This is a gay dog.
08:20This one is very small.
08:21Oh, look at this.
08:22This is like a little gerbil.
08:23Oh, I do like this dog.
08:25But she told me specifically a black and white female teacup.
08:30Oh, I see.
08:31We only care of Yorkies and Maltese here.
08:35That's it, Yorkie-poo.
08:45Hi, hi.
08:46Oh, if only you were a Pomeranian.
08:52All my problems would be solved.
08:55I wish I had one.
09:00Black and white Pomeranians are rare.
09:03It's just like Kimora to want something that nobody does.
09:10Uh-oh.
09:15Oh, we got a Pomeranian.
09:17Oh, wrong color.
09:20You're not really black and white.
09:22And you're a boy.
09:25Okay.
09:26I don't want to disappoint Kimora, nor do I want to disappoint Ming and Aoki.
09:32I'm dreading telling Kimora that I cannot find this dog.
09:41Okay, Danielle, for the Met Ball.
09:44You want a clean, thrown back.
09:46You don't want a little texture in there.
09:48Because I think that the dress that I like is like a strapless, African printed.
09:53I think that's the dress we're going with.
09:55But I'm not sure about that.
09:57Hello!
09:58Let me get it.
10:02Oh, Simba.
10:04Put a sock there.
10:05What's the matter with you?
10:08Not getting in.
10:10What's the matter?
10:12I'm having trouble finding the black and white female teacup Pomeranian that you wanted.
10:19What?
10:20I can't find the dog.
10:25You put as much effort into selecting a Met dress as a movie star would when she's going
10:30to the Oscars.
10:31Stomach in.
10:32Please sit.
10:33Do you love it?
10:35Where is the dog?
10:37Where is the dog?
10:38Where is the dog?
10:39Where is the dog?
10:41Where is the dog?
10:50It's the Fabulous Fabulous savilless.
10:52A kid found the dog.
10:56We can't have that!
10:59So Christopher has been scouring L.A. for the perfect puppy for us to adopt.
11:05And apparently, it's not happening.
11:07We have two little girls here, they're expecting a puppy.
11:10They're gonna just make them sad.
11:11I've been to so many places.
11:13Where have you looked?
11:14Check the shelters, check the rescue, call the Humane Society.
11:18You have to exhaust all your resources, because no is not an option now.
11:23Disappointing being in Ayoki is gonna be a huge disaster for me.
11:26So I'm gonna go back and try to find them this dog,
11:29but at this point, it's not looking good.
11:35I am with my dear friend Andre Leontali, Vogue's editor-at-large.
11:41Andre is coming out to Kevin Hall all the way from New York
11:44to give me a second opinion on a hand-painted African dress.
11:48It might be too much for the Met Ball.
11:50It might be too cultural for them.
11:52It's a lot in this dress.
11:54This is the fashion event of the season in New York,
11:58and so you put as much effort into selecting a Met dress
12:01as a movie star would when she's going to the Oscars.
12:03He wants to see me actually in it to get the feeling.
12:06I hope Andre really likes this dress,
12:08because if not, we could be back at square one.
12:15Okay, now we're ready in this so we can see.
12:18Could you walk a little bit softer?
12:21And not so truck rivalry-like?
12:23Boom, boom, boom.
12:24We're not going into the disco.
12:25Stomach in.
12:26Think, spin.
12:27Think, spin.
12:28Stop.
12:29Walk.
12:30Turn.
12:31Do you love it?
12:38Yes, I do.
12:41Beautiful.
12:42Yeah.
12:43Really stunning.
12:44And unique and unexpected for you, Kimura.
12:46And it's wonderful and youthful.
12:48She will look wonderful.
12:50She will rock it.
12:51This is the right dress for her.
12:52Please make it tight.
12:55She has to suffer the whole night.
13:02You know I love you, and I wouldn't travel all this way just for fitting for just anyone.
13:05Only me.
13:06Oh, no.
13:07Other people, too.
13:09We're doing the upper fives.
13:11She's going to look spectacular because I never make a mistake.
13:15Good news.
13:16Great news.
13:17Come on.
13:18I got something for you.
13:19You're so happy.
13:20I am.
13:21It's not a computer.
13:22Okay, what is it?
13:23I found you a dog.
13:24What?
13:25They were like, oh.
13:26Oh.
13:27She's so cute.
13:28She is, right?
13:29Yeah.
13:30Is she drinking soda?
13:31No.
13:32I told him to take pictures of the dog next to the soda can so you could see how big it
13:35is.
13:36Did you?
13:37Yes, I did.
13:38That's really cute.
13:39She fits all the food.
13:40She fits all the food.
13:41She fits all the food.
13:42That's great news.
13:43That's great news.
13:44Come on.
13:45I got something for you.
13:46You're so happy.
13:47I am.
13:48It's not a computer.
13:49Okay, what is it?
13:50I found you a dog.
13:51What?
13:52She's so cute.
13:53She fits all the criteria of the puppy that we want to adopt.
13:56But we really won't know if she is the special one until we meet her face to face.
14:01Okay, we need to go and see her.
14:03The girls are gonna be so excited.
14:05She's really pretty.
14:19Okay.
14:20Where's the dog?
14:21Where's the dog?
14:22Where's the dog?
14:23Where's the dog?
14:24Where's the dog?
14:25Where's the dog?
14:26Where's the dog?
14:27Where's the dog?
14:28Where's the dog?
14:29Here she comes.
14:30Oh, my little thing.
14:31And this will be the moment of truth whether all my hard work paid off or not.
14:36Can I run and see a dog?
14:37Dog, dog, dog.
14:38Oh, puppy.
14:39Oh, Lord.
14:40I just have this one though.
14:41Aw.
14:42Aw.
14:43Look at this with my chin.
14:44She's pretty.
14:45Let's get Simba.
14:46I'm gonna go get Simba.
14:47I'll go get Simba.
14:48I'll go get Simba.
14:49I'll go get Simba.
14:50It's important that everybody agrees that this is the puppy that we want to adopt.
15:03Simba gets to say.
15:04Aww.
15:05Simba, stop barking so loud.
15:06You're gonna teach her bad manners.
15:07You cannot act like that.
15:08Didn't you get the family integration speech?
15:09Come on now.
15:10We've heard enough of you, Simba.
15:11Oh, gosh.
15:12She's so cute.
15:13Could be so complete to you and me.
15:25Kiss my face again and wearing pictures of yours.
15:30Oh, you're so cute.
15:35Girls, what do you think?
15:36Can you provide a good gift with me?
15:41Girls, what do you think?
15:41Can you provide a good home for her?
15:43That's the question.
15:44I can make a good home out of the living room for her.
15:50Do you like the doggie?
15:51We want her.
15:52How much do you want her?
15:54More than I want the whole world.
15:56Who's the puppy going to sleep with?
15:58Me.
15:58Me.
15:59Me.
15:59Me.
16:00Actually, I own a home with my daddy.
16:04Who's going to raise the dog, Mommy?
16:05I will.
16:05I will, yes.
16:06Really?
16:07We'll do it together.
16:08Come here.
16:08One, two, three.
16:09Together.
16:11So it's a taker?
16:12It's a taker?
16:15OK, we'll take her.
16:17OK.
16:18Because we're going to New York for the mat ball,
16:20we're going to leave our new puppy with her current owner.
16:22And as soon as we get back, we will bring her home
16:25to be the newest addition to our family.
16:39Danielle, I don't know what you're doing.
16:42You put your pins in, you take your pins out, Danielle.
16:44Put the pin in and leave the pin in.
16:46We're back on the East Coast, and Christopher and Danielle
16:49are here helping me to prepare for the mat ball.
16:55The mat's probably never seen anything like this dress.
16:57It's a little colorful and more avant garde of an evening gown.
17:01Can't miss you on that.
17:02And I don't know if people will get it or not.
17:05But it's very important to me that tonight goes very well.
17:12And one, two, three.
17:18That's it?
17:19Yep.
17:20OK.
17:21Hello?
17:23Yeah.
17:25How are you?
17:26What's wrong?
17:30It's going to be a problem for both of us.
17:33Right in the middle of getting Kimora ready for the mat ball,
17:35I got a call from the owner of the dog with terrible news.
17:40Um, Kimora, that was the dog's owner and.
17:44Great.
17:45When is she coming?
17:47Actually.
17:52Welcome to the Costume Institute Gala
17:54at the Metropolitan Museum.
17:55Pretty much anybody who's anybody at NYC is going to be here.
18:00The puppy situation has become a complete disaster.
18:03I don't know what I'm going to do.
18:18The fabulous, fabulous.
18:24I just got a call from the dog's owner with terrible news, and now I have to break it to
18:30Kimora right before she leaves for the mat ball.
18:33That was the dog's owner and.
18:35When is she coming?
18:36We're waiting.
18:37She's actually not coming.
18:38What?
18:39They want to keep her.
18:40Why?
18:40For how long?
18:41Indefinitely.
18:42I'm just falling in love with her and they don't want to give her up.
18:47We're in love with her too.
18:49Come on, tell that lady to stop playing.
18:50I got two little children.
18:51Chris, we're waiting on that dog now.
18:53Now, just work this out.
18:54Come on now.
18:56Some way, somehow, I have to persuade the dog's owner to give me the dog.
19:00The puppy situation is becoming a complete disaster.
19:04I don't know what I'm going to do.
19:17Hi, Tom.
19:18Tom.
19:19Hi, honey.
19:20What's going on?
19:21Welcome to the Costume Institute Gala at the Metropolitan Museum of Art.
19:25All the biggest stars in the world are going to be showing up to this red carpet tonight.
19:30Pretty much anybody who's anybody is going to be at this event.
19:38Hi, how are you?
19:39How are you?
19:40Nice to see you.
19:41What are you wearing?
19:43I'm wearing Kevin Hall.
19:45This is a hand-painted gown.
19:47And this is the Indebelli boutique from the Indebelli tribe of South Africa.
19:51It's thrilling.
19:52Yeah.
19:53Absolutely gorgeous.
19:54I'm wearing the dress and I thought it was perfect for the Met Ball.
20:01Well, thank you both so much.
20:02Have fun.
20:03Bye.
20:03Bye.
20:04The Met Ball was fabulous and a lot of fun, but the whole time, I could not help myself
20:10from thinking, are we really going to get this puppy or not?
20:18We get back to L.A., and Christopher has a little surprise for us.
20:22He got the puppy.
20:24Can I open mommy, please?
20:26Yes.
20:27Whoo!
20:28Yeah!
20:29Wow, looky.
20:30I don't know what Christopher had to go through to get this puppy.
20:34I'm not sure that I want to know.
20:36All I know is I'm very happy to see the girls so happy about their new puppy.
20:42What are we going to name her?
20:44I think we should call her makeup.
20:46Come here.
20:47Makeup?
20:48Jewelry!
20:49No.
20:50I like Suki.
20:53Me too.
20:54Suki, come here.
20:56See?
20:57She likes Suki.
20:58That's her name.
20:59Suki!
21:00Me, Aoki, you love your dog?
21:03Yes.
21:04It feels great.
21:05Not only did it please Kimura, it pleased the girls, which is most important.
21:08Thank you, Christopher, for finding the perfect baby for us.
21:11Oh, you're welcome.
21:12Thank you, Christopher.
21:13Oh, you're welcome.
21:15Come on, guys.
21:18Group hug.
21:19Aww.
21:20Aww.
21:21It's been a fast-paced, dramatic year getting the key to St. Louis, my hometown, launching fragrances,
21:28and creating clothing lines, but the best thing about my life is the simple little moments
21:35like this, when you can relax and hang out in the park with your girls, those are the
21:41most important moments of your life.
21:43Oh, the dog is licking and yucky.
