I feel like most creative people are total freaks.

When you look cakey, or you have too much on, and you actually see the makeup, the makeup isn't doing its job. When you use the makeup in a way where the people aren't thinking about the makeup, and they're looking at you, that's what we want.

Be confident, and just do it. It's all about not questioning what everyone else is thinking, since they're probably looking to others to know what is or isn't cool.

I see the human in everyone and everything. No one is more important than anyone else; I still hang out with my high school friends.

I do think women are unfairly judged by their physical appearance, but I don’t think it had anything to do with being mixed-race. In my opinion, mixed-race people are the most beautiful.

When you're making an independent film and you care about it so much you do all the prep work beforehand.

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