theblaggTV sits down with Claw Money

When we clinched the CLAW Money sit-down, The Ordinary Girl was quarter to chickening out of speaking to her. You know that whole thing people say about meeting your idols and whatnot. So anyway, we finally caught up with her at STR.CRD and if you'll excuse the dodgy sound - the room had a sliding door that wasn't filtering the madness in the media room out - you can watch the funny graffiti artist who has ensured her passion gets her paid. When I bumped into her in the ladies room a few moments after this mini-interview, I not only helped her fix her top, taught her the TIA phrase and got to laugh at her jokes (what's not to love about this woman?) but I also got to peep the pictures from her NASCAR collaboration. Too bad all that's not on camera. Not only is she the first woman to collaborate on a design for NASCAR - which you can see HERE - but this is the first representation of graffiti in that arena. Rad, right? Watch our quick chat (with additional images from CLAW Money's youtube account):



Then check out these cool images of what went down when Optone and 2kiler of OTC took CLAW around Johannesburg and they did more than go sightseeing:
