I don't function well in chaos, whether it be my sheets or the dishwasher.

In Hollywood, you play a mom and instantly, you've got osteoporosis.

The black community in Hollywood is very small and close-knit. Everyone has a common goal: to make a two-hour movie in 30 days.

I think if we open ourselves to all different kinds of men and all groups, we find a lot more opportunities to love.

I love romantic comedies. They're for me the easiest thing to do and the most natural to do. There's nothing natural about holding an uzi hanging out of a moving van shooting at people. That's not second nature to me, thank God.

I played sports year around: basketball, soccer, softball and I ran track year around, from the time I was, like, six, seven.

In my career, there have been roles I haven't taken because someone involved with the project gave me a bad vibe. I don't care how much money is on the table: No job is worth feeling uneasy every day.
