My mother and I are more than best friends; we are partners in crime. After she and my father, Quincy Jones, separated when I was 10 years old, my sister, Kidada, who was 12, went to live with our dad, and I stayed with my mother.

If I can surround myself with hilarious people every day, I will always want to go to work.

Good rom-coms have some reflection of the way things are, the sign of the times.

As much as my parents are part of Hollywood, I have no recollection of them giving me advice about it.

I think I'm a natural appreciator of comedy. I was definitely not the girl in junior high that all the guys wanted to date. They wanted to date my friends - which was great, because I had to be funny.

I think people kind of come in who they are, and it sort of doesn't even matter who their parents are - it can affect you a little bit, and you can be guided and shaped.

I totally believe in romance and love and all that.
