Known for her appearances in videos with Ludacris, Ghostface Killah, 2pac, and Lil' Kim, LisaRaye McCoy has been incredibly busy and amassed a slew of credits, but that's honestly the least interesting thing about her. When McCoy married Michael Misick, to describe the event as "lavish" is putting it lightly — let's just say that the honeymoon involved stops in Jerusalem, Bali, and Dubai. The wedding made her the first lady of Turks and Caicos, but it didn't have a happy ending. When she sat down with Essence in 2020, she wasn't allowed to say much about their divorce, accusations of domestic violence, and the charges of corruption that had been filed. She did, however, say, "It's ok to move forward because things happen. Does it hurt? Yes. Am I disappointed? Incredibly. But this, too, shall pass."
McCoy caused some controversy with her comments that she had "turned their island around" while there, referencing projects that included a music festival and a film festival. Needless to say, those living in Turks and Caicos weren't entirely thrilled with her claim that no one had heard of them until she got there, and she caused some massive controversy in Ghana, too.
She was on "The Wendy Williams Show" when she claimed that she had been made the queen mother of Ghana, and according to what Chief of the Town Nana Ampim Darko V told GhanaFact, that wasn't exactly true. Instead, she was given the title "Nketesiahemaa," honoring her humanitarian work and assistance in setting up a clinic.
