I like people who don't tell you what you want to hear.

With success comes more responsibility, a larger size of existence, which is uncomfortable.

I love color. I'm enjoying trying all different shades. Makeup isn't something I've worn a lot of in my life.

You fail, and then what? Life goes on. It's only when you risk failure that you discover things.

I think it's a real gift to be faced with man's potential for extreme cruelty but also man's resilience and the fact that love really does conquer everything. It's the only answer to these kinds of atrocities and it's not a passive thing.

I can speak of actors that I love. I love Cate Blanchett, Viola Davis, her tenacity. I love Charlize Theron. She's so surprising and so exhilarating, the kinds of projects she takes on. Marion Cotillard as well.

European standards of beauty are something that plague the entire world - the idea that darker skin is not beautiful, that light skin is the key to success and love. Africa is no exception.
