I didn't know that my son had allergies until he spit up eggs one day, and one day he had a little peanut butter and his face swelled up. I took him to get tested and found out that he is allergic to everything.
I believe that people just want to laugh and have a good time.
I am a different kind of celebrity; I don't have the big, giant house, the fancy cars, and all the designer stuff. I am just a girl from Cleveland.
A woman is a woman. A woman has male problems, has job problems, and I think funny is funny.
We still have to create things for African American women. Just like Tyler Perry is doing it, we can't wait for things to happen; you have to go and make and create roles and go to people.
'College Road Trip' is colorless. It's not a black film. It's not a white film.
I want adopted people to know they were chosen.
My parents were funny. My brothers were funny. We just laughed and had a good time. Growing up, it breeds that. It breeds your funny. It breeds your creativity.
As an actress, our hours can be grueling, and like any mother that has a career or job, it is difficult. Balancing spending time with your child in the morning and after they come home from daycare/school before is the key.
You can talk about reality TV if you want to, but guess what - it was a big commercial for Kym Whitley.
Voice work is the best - no need to dress up, no audience, no pressure, nobody's judging you.
The OWN network is all about inspiring and enlightening.
I've always had an entourage. Even when I was a little kid, I had a lot of little children following around me.
I encourage people to get a village so that there will always be someone who's like family looking out for your child.
