Sherri Shepherd hosted “Inside Edition” host Deborah Norville on Wednesday’s edition of her daytime talk show.
During their conversation, Norville brought up the time she spent a week in jail as an experience for “Inside Edition.”
“It was so eye-opening,” Norville said of his week behind bars. “There were two moments that made me happy. I was locked up on Valentine’s Day. They gave me a piece of chocolate cake with white icing on it. And on the fourth day… I took a shower. And was it good. Every other moment was uncomfortable, scary, disconcerting, not pleasant.

Shepherd also spent time in the slammer, recently revealing that she previously spent time in jail for traffic tickets.
“I don’t remember any pleasant experiences,” admitted Shepherd. “Because someone stole my underwear. And I remember I had to go ask because they were hanging from his bed. And everyone was trying to entice her by saying, ‘Big Mama took your underwear.’
“May I ask how they got it?” Norville asked.
“Because we had to wash it every day and put it on the bed, and she took it!” Berger exclaimed.

“Yes, I went to jail for not paying for my tickets. At the time, I didn’t think being in jail was a good time, but looking back, I learned to pay all my bills,” she admitted.
“Prison was a classroom…it was a life lesson, and now I pay my bills on time,” she added.
