As a black actress you've got to work doubly hard. But it doesn't ever get me to the point where I give up on myself. It just motivates me to be more prepared, focus and disciplined. That's why I care so much about doing black films and making sure t...
I just like to have words that describe things correctly. Now to me, 'black feminist' does not do that. I need a word that is organic, that really comes out of the culture, that really expresses the spirit that we see in black women. And it's just......

Nick: Open your gift. Olive: You open it, can't you see I'm dressing? Nick: Here. Olive: What is it? Nick: Pearls. What the hell do you think they are? Olive: Pearls are white. Nick: These are black pearls. Olive: Oh, don't give me that. I never hear...
I'm a musical theater aficionado, a.k.a. loser.
Music is love. Music is always about love.
I've found that musical theater is my passion.
Sondheim is the Shakespeare of the musical theater world.
As long as it's good music, that's what's important.
I make good music for long journeys.
I love house music. I love all music.
I've always had a love of country music.
I wanted to be on Broadway, but in musical comedy.
I'd love to do a musical one day - a theatre musical.
I love pop music. Who doesn't?
