When I look in the mirror, I see a woman who is happy.

I'm a huge Dirty Dancing fan. I feel like I should be reading [William] Shakespeare, but I'm watching Baby not be in a corner.

On my very first show, my partners in it, Oprah Winfrey and her network, and studio, Warner Horizon, who doesn't get enough credit, said, "Lady, we're going to let you call the shots the way you want to."

I tell the stories that are of interest to me.

Stop asking, start doing.

You know, often films that are deemed positive, nobody wants to see them.

I think that women definitely have a special bond as friends that is hard to describe to men, and we don't often see that portrayed narratively.
