To this day, I love eating steak tacos before going to the red carpets.

It doesn't escape me for one moment that so much joy in my life is thanks to so much pain in someone else's.

I'm interested in generating work for myself. I have trouble with this waiting-for-the-phone-to-ring lifestyle, especially after drama school, which was so creatively fulfilling.

I definitely intend to create my own work in the future so that we don't have to keep saying we don't have work for black women. But right now I don't know what's next. I hope that there are more opportunities to come my way.

I think beauty is an expression of love.

There is no shame in black beauty.

You have to allow for the impossible to be possible.
