She tries to say goodbye, and she chokes. She tries to walk away, and she stumbles. And now we know why.
Macy Gray hilariously admitted on MTV’s “Surreal Life: Villa of Secrets” that she achieves “healing” via a handful of unconventional approaches.
Before she and her co-stars participated in a group breathing exercise in Tuesday’s season premiere, the “I Try” singer, 56, scoffed at the idea.

“Oh, God,” she said in a confessional. “I just don’t do the hippie s–t. Like, I live in LA — that’s hippie kingdom. If I’m healing, that’s not how I do it.”
An off-camera producer then asked, “How would you do it?”
“Like, cocaine. And a couple — a couple shots,” Gray replied with a hearty laugh.
“Get those edibles down my throat, and I’m good, girl! Then order me a pizza, I’m straight! I don’t need all that s–t. I’m good.”
Despite her hesitation, the actress and her castmates — Chet Hanks, Kim Zolciak, Tyler Posey, Josie Canseco, O.T. Genasis, Ally Brooke and Johnny Weir — were taken to their Medellín, Colombia, villa’s spacious outdoor porch, where they sat in a circle on individual cushioned seats.
When their guide, Oliver, instructed them to close their eyes, Gray unapologetically let out, “It’d be really dope if we had an ottoman,” signaling that she wanted someplace to kick up her feet.
Posey and Hanks eventually began breathing to the beat of a drum Oliver was playing, with their inhales and exhales growing louder and louder as the exercise went on.
“The deeper you breathe, the deeper your experience will be,” Oliver told the group as a skeptical Gray’s eyes bulged out of her head.
“To my right, Tyler’s going [dramatic breathing]. He sounds like a bear,” she quipped in a confessional.
“Chet — he has this lobster thing going on [with his hands]. Like, he’s all cramped up. It’s like they’re almost in a competition! So it was impossible for me to really get into it. I’m just laying there, like …”
“Surreal Life: Villa of Secrets” airs Tuesdays at 9 p.m. ET on MTV.
