smell partners frenchmen
My partner is a Frenchman, so I have got to smell right.
movie answers actors
Just to be true to myself, which is why I did this movie. I figured everyone was going to freak out and say, 'Why would you do that after Dorothy Dandridge?' My answer is 'Because I can.' And that feels really good to be comfortable saying that.
jobs special looks
Before you go alter body, do some research and find out how many women have major life-threatening complications from nose jobs. Ask about how many nose jobs gone terribly wrong, and if you thought your face was wrong before, look what happens after. The more we start augmenting our bodies, the more and more we start to look alike, then nobody is special anymore.
turning-40
I'm not sad at all about turning 40.
paper way scripts
Here's the thing - you can't be careful about what you pick because what looks like on paper is going to be a great script has often turned out to be a disaster, so there's no way to know what's going to work or to pick the right thing.
fun character thinking
I never even think about the physicality of roles, until honestly I get the gig and I think, 'OK, now what do I have to do in this one?' Like, I approach it thinking more about the character -- do I respond to it? Is it something I think I can play? Does it seem like it'll be fun?
screens
I've never been afraid to be who I really am on screen.
color cookies way
I've always liked to go down a different path. Being a woman of color, I never followed a cookie cutter way.
beautiful beautiful-inside
As beautiful as Halle is on the outside, she's 10 times more beautiful on the inside.
nice character feel-good
I've also grown as an actor as I've got older in life. I've learnt how to go to work, immerse myself 100 per cent in the character and, at the end of the day, take it all off and go back, get a nice bubble bath, have a nice massage and realise that is not my life. And that feels good.
sexy thinking feet
I think my feet are my sexiest body part. People I find really sexy include Angelina Jolie, George Clooney and my mum.
morning character mean
I don't buy into that pressure to be glamorous all the time. It's impossible, I mean, you get a pimple in the morning, you wake up with bags under your eyes, you see if you can use it in your work, maybe incorporate it into your character.
sex race black
Being a black woman, I've often felt I've been judged by my sex and my race, and I have always known that it shouldn't hamper me.
sexy winning opportunity
I get offered varied parts, often super sexy roles. But I still think it's an issue to find the good scripts. It's a myth that you win an Oscar and you get more opportunities, and this doesn't just go for me.
