Just because you become a mother, it doesn't mean you lose who you are.

Independnce comes from you knowing who you are and you being happy with yourself.

A woman is most beautiful when she smiles. Other than that, the most valuable tip I've learned is always use a skin moisturiser!

You definitely feed off the people around you, and your man is one of the people you talk to the most. So you kind of help each other and keep each other strong. It's important.

It was great for that to be my first movie with such a wonderful cast, and such a huge movie. And now I get to do The Fighting Temptations, which is coming out soon-it wasn't much of a character, it was more of a real person, so I got to show more of my acting range.

I don't like to gamble, but if there's one thing I'm willing to bet on, it's myself.

If I weren't performing, I'd be a beauty editor or a therapist. I love creativity, but I also love to help others. My mother was a hairstylist, and they listen to everyone's problems - like a beauty therapist!
