In 2014, Harris opened up to Vice about her experience.
"I was doing television, they had me touring everywhere, and I was always bothered by the fact that, you know, people took the 'Call me now' quote very earnestly," she recalled at the time. "I was at Best Buy one day, and a gentleman said, 'Miss Cleo, aren’t you supposed to be on the phone?' I said, 'Honey, do you really think that I do that while I'm traveling and doing press?' I said, 'You have a better chance of talking to me right here than you do if you called.' I still remember my extension number, though. My extension was 16153."
Best known for the commercials, she also voiced the character Auntie Poulet in the video game Grand Theft Auto: Vice City in 2002, per Us Weekly.
