Music and acting are the most prominent. But I don't like to compare them, since they're both very, very important to me.

I think less is more in terms of makeup in general.

I had talked to my agent a lot over the years about not being interested in stereotypical "black films" [because] I didn't like the way they were representing black people over and over and over again in the same way.

I would fly to Los Angeles just for a cheeseburger with pickles and extra tomatoes from In-N-Out.

I'm a New Yorker; I've paid my dues.

My style is very inspired by both my parents, so we all have the same taste.

I'm happy to just sit in a cafe and watch people. It's my favorite thing to do, for sure.
