I'm cool with myself. If I can't have the body of Angie Bassett, so be it.
I used to do school plays. I never really took any acting classes. I'm just a natural ham, I guess.
I got a few marriage proposals in my 20s. I just wasn't ready. I just knew if I committed, I would've wound up doing something wrong, messing it up. I still felt like I had some living to do.
When my body feels good, I feel more energized and alive, and that's sexy. I'm taking care of this body God gave me.
There's the part of my life that the public and I share together. And there's the part that's mine to keep for myself. And that's mine. For me.
I think I'd be a great mom, honestly. I don't think I'll have any problem giving them all the love in the world. Discipline will be the hard part.
I remember praying for peace all the time as a kid.
I realized there was racism because people thought, 'Oh, if you like roll 'n' roll, that makes you like a white kid.'
I learned early that I had to work harder than the white kids and harder than the boys.
I don't eat bad food. I probably just eat too much food, and I think a lot of people do.
I clean up really well. I can get dolled up.
God is my homeboy. Jesus is my homeboy.
