We don't consider black, urban films as 'indies,' though many of them are shot for under $10 million which is kind of the definition of an indie.

Before I got married, I dated the gamut.

When someone who loves and cares about me compliments me, I feel more glamorous than when the flashbulbs are going off on the red carpet.

I had to learn - since I'm divorced now and everyone is like, 'Oh my God, you're single, what's going on?' - that if I don't like to spend time with myself, how can I ask someone else to enjoy spending time with me? I'm getting to learn how to enjoy my solitude and have a good time.

I'm the kind of person whose clothes are all hung up and color-coordinated, to the point where my whites don't touch my creams.

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

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.
