If you're writing on your own, each character is just you. It's just you.

I have a birthmark on the inside of my left knee that resembles an upside-down sea horse.

I used to watch 'Coming to America' every day after school. I have full-on long-running inside jokes with friends and family about different scenes in that movie alone. Also, my brother and I loved 'The Golden Child,' so, yeah: I was a huge fan of Eddie Murphy growing up.

It doesn't have anything to do with how the world perceives you. What matters is what you see.

Plenty of times, I haven't been able to wear certain clothes because they didn't come in my size.

They try to paint the picture that I was this downtrodden, ugly girl who was unpopular in school and in life, and then I got this role and now I’m awesome. But the truth is that I’ve been awesome, and then I got this role.

Hollywood, that whole industry, is a lot like a really small town. You bump into the same people all the time. I think Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon can be played with anyone and everyone in Hollywood.
