I never said I wasn’t Black… I want to make that very clear. I said, I am not African-American. I never expected my personal beliefs and comments to spark such emotion in people. I think it is only positive when we can openly discuss race and being labeled in America.

I used to breed poodles. I liked them because they were fluffy and so cute - and honestly, they make a lot of money when you sell them!

I have people come onstage and ask me questions and I get to meet them. That's one of the reasons I like it. When you're performing, when you're doing your movies, they're not there with you.

There are a lot of people in each spot that you don't really know. I work with them that day, and move on and find new people. So purging and cleansing your friend list every day.

Friendship is a give and take. You have to have a strong relationship with your friend and I think you have to offer them something and they have to offer you something and that’s to always learn from it.

My perfect guy right now would be a mannequin - one that comes alive only when I need him to!

Forgive yourself and forgive others around you.
