Tee Tot says she’s ‘very famous’
As Tee Tot arrives in the women’s pods, she waves and says hello to many of the other inmates and says: “Tee Tot’s back on the block.”
Some of the inmates appear pleased to see her, but others asked: “Who is Tee Tot?”
Speaking in a confessional on 60 Days In, she says that she’s “very famous,” adding: “If you like me, you like me, if you don’t, you don’t…”

Inmate calls Candace ‘lame’
Tensions rise in the women’s pods after Tee Tot asks another inmate, Candace, what she’s in prison for.
Candace tells her the reason, and adds that she’s “taking the charge for somebody else.”
Tee Tot then calls her “stupid,” adding: “You lame for that.”
Candace shouts for Tee Tot to “leave her alone.”
Volunteer Sarah Anselment says in a confessional that things “escalated quickly” after Tee Tot insulted Candace. Sarah added: “Tee Tot, I’m terrified of her.”
