I think it's actually a misperception that I am a comedic actress. I do more drama than comedy but very little of it has been seen. When you are in big funny movies and they do well and your little part in it kind of explodes people perceive you as a comedian.

The way to bring about change is to be proactive and active.

Any upward movement is movement for us all.

Even in my music, I am always searching for big, universal things - ways that you can sort of reach outside the norm of what you are doing.

I'm excited that I get to do what I love, and I'm benefiting through projects that speak to me.

I have always been very family-oriented. I came from a dysfunctional, broken family growing up, and it's probably instilled in me the need and the want to have a strong family and a great foundation. So I think that is something that I naturally gravitate toward.

I do believe that we're all God's children.
