I'm not just considered a former child star. I'm not considered a black actress. I'm not considered an actress. I've done roles that were written for men. First and foremost, is God, I definitely believe in Him, having kind of mapped out what my destiny was going to be. Therefore, I wasn't just going to be put in just that one box or kept in that one place.
I've been blessed to work with some good people as well as different actors. So it's a blessing to be able to have friends who... the friendships are a result of projects that you've worked on together.
I love my family in Baltimore. But on their side of the family, I love their cousin Charles Thompson, because he's from New York like me.
