I'm interested in other women's men, no seriously my ultimate dream is to have a sitcom or a talk show or a more promising career. It would be nice to be on a circuit that didn't serve chitlins all the time. I'm an avid reader. Eric Jerome-- some how I see me in all your novels. Read "the other woman" 8 times already. Damn that has to be me. We've crossed paths somewhere b4. E Lyn thanks for opening my eyes to the DL brother. Still choosing wrong but at least my eyes are open. Franklin White- negro get your stuff together and get the books out to the masses. Terri--I'm still exhaling. Zane--damn girl you a bigger freak than every woman in my family--sorry Janie didn't mean to put you out there. Toni Morrison--you can put a book in my hands anyday. Alice Walker--your color purple has me seeing grreen. Jealous cause my skills ain't that prolific
I'd like to meet:
Everyone I want to meet have died so I won't say who else I wish to meet so they won't face an untimely death. I wanted to meet Tupac, Richard Pryor, Robin Harris, Moms Mabley, Ossie Davis. I met Guy Davis but not his father. Even got the good role in Purlie Victorious. I am indebted to several people who tried to jumpstart my career but I fought them nail and tooth thinking love beat fame anyday. Gordon Parks for giving me the one line in your movie. You told me I needed to get off my tail and go where the big dogs were. Tito Puente, those talks in the limo, I'll never forget. Janet Carter, never got the chance to say good bye but I still cherish the memories and the opportunities. Dr. RL Stevenson who always gave me the lead role in the comedies in college. I thought you were being biased now I know you knew what I possessed.
Music:
Any of that why you left me when you coming back music. Some rap, but I love some good mellow music. The artists that get my juices flowing are Peabo Bryson, Charlie Wilson, Prince, Michael Jackson, Joe, Usher (when he letting his emotions flow). No one tops the ladies who look deep inside my soul--Mary J, Natalie, Whitney I'm still rooting 4 ya, Miki Howard, Heather, damn my main girl Bettye Wright who's had my daughter blowing her tunes since she was 4 yrs old. Aaliyah your "I care for u" takes me thru many a lonely night. RIP.
Movies:
Anything black but I love me some comedies. Can't get enough of Sanaa Lathan. She is super versatile. "Brown Sugar" cause it takes me back to Roosevelt to the one who got away, "Life", just cause damn, just cause. Anything with Chris Tucker, hey you my dog Chris. Tell Dexter his sex symbol thing ain't cutting it. Wearing a wife intimidator. Can't beat nobody. some white movies too--was that racist-- something about Mary, anything with Jim Carrey. Jamie you did it up in Ray. Kudos to your career.
Television:
Used to like most of the comedy shows til things got too political or am I jaded. Black reruns. Girlfriends, Grey's Anatomy, Proud Family, American Idol
Books:
Damn I guess I was ahead of myself on this one.; Again Eric Dickey, Jonathan Kellerman, James Baldwin. Those authors and too many more to name.
Heroes:
My daughter Niamani, for braving the lonely nights without me when I'm on the road. You are a joy and an inspiration. The men of FBLA (FUCK bARBARA AND LEAVE HER ASS)--you know who you are--you made me a tougher woman and created a sharper wit. Dontcha wish your....
