It was fun. I’d never done anything like that. I’d never done any bi-sexual or lesbian scenes before, but it was really fun.
I always like an environment where theres lots of women and everyones different.
As an actor, you are always looking for something fresh and interesting and not ordinary.
I tend to play characters that arent supposed to black or written black.
I wouldnt mind spending six months a year having a private jet take me around the world to visit natural and historical landmarks like the Egyptian pyramids, Mount Kilimanjaro or the Taj Mahal.
One thing I am really dying to do, while I’m still young and in shape, is an action movie. I would love to do a Lara Croft type of thing that’s really physical and tough. I want to have a gun and do martial arts. I would love to get paid to get into the best shape of my life.
I’ve been to strip clubs where the dancers have these whole routines that they create just for the wow factor and to say, ‘Look how strong and physically fit I am.’ Most women couldn’t do it, and it’s not necessarily sexual. It’s just a performance.
I definitely am drawn to strong females who are successful, smart women because I am a woman like that. I think it’s important to portray those kinds of women on film and television. Especially as a black woman, I think it’s important.
It’s almost sad that it’s something that’s just associated with stripping or because someone is slutty. That’s really not it. It’s actually a really great way to get a work-out and to build upper body strength and to have fan.
After Ive enjoyed a floral bouquet to its fullest, I drop a few petals in a bottle with distilled water to create my own soothing toner.
I think it’s important to see that, as an audience member, because a lot of times you pass judgement on people, right off the bat, depending on whatever they’re involved in or the people they surround themselves with, or something like that.
There aren’t a lot of roles in period movies for black people. It sucks because I love that era. But, I love musicals. I love the show Glee, and I wouldn’t mind being on that either.
