It's funny shooting movies because you get to see clubs during daylight hours, which no one should ever see - it's not pretty; there's a reason the lighting is dim in there.

I think we are used to being critical and evaluating ideas.

I had my life Monday through Friday in school, and then I had my 'real life,' which was my acting class on Saturday.

You've got to get as literal as you can get to convince people sometimes that you can do something.

As you can tell by my IMDB page, I like to work.

Craig Robinson is basically the mayor of wherever he goes.

I think that initially all I wanted to do was work as an actress, and then, as I started to work more consistently, you start to maybe want to challenge yourself in different ways, so I think it's something that developed over time - this desire to direct and also to produce. I think as you watch other actresses do it so successfully and so gracefully, you're like, I think that would be fun! It's definitely something that has become more of a priority for me.
