It's all about humanity, humility, and integrity.
If you're going to do something, make it right and make it as good as you can. Don't waste anybody's time, especially your own.
I've played piano and guitar when I was younger.
I'm not the classic type - fair skin, very beautiful women of a classic type, I'm talking about now.
I was a shy little girl, nothing like what I am now.
I have to approach my life in this way so I can do what I need to do, and do it very well.
My driving force is spirituality.
Chick Corea was a great influence on me, musically, as I was growing up.
I got an early education from television.
And I used to listen to a lot of jazz.
I fit into the quirky, character class type of actor.
Voice is my instrument.
My family is very theatrical.
When I was five years old I knew I wanted to act.
We always performed for our church, but we also just performed whenever the family got together.
