I’ve basically been working really hard for the past couple years. And the nature of the film business is that movies come out when they come out, and these all just happen to be coming out at the same time.

The thing that my parents have always taught me is that beauty comes from the inside, and also that beauty stems from health.

If you're not taking care of yourself, lipstick and foundation isn't really going to do anything for you.

My dad has totally taken my Cat Stevens T-shirt, but it's OK; I have his Black Flag one, and that's amazing.

I feel like most creative people are total freaks.

I think it's important to represent black women and our natural hair. Not wearing a weave is totally beautiful and acceptable.

I'm obsessed with Juice Press - they're everywhere. I spend so much money at that place it's crazy.
