I'd like to meet:
*Anybody who is remotely breathing while around me knows that it's the sensational... HALLE BERRY
*I would also love to meet Laila Ali, Oprah, Morgan Freeman, Lynn Whitfield, Diahann Carroll, Denzel Washington, Angela Davis, Kate Winslet, Meryl Streep, Angelina Jolie, Melanie Brown, and Shirley Maclaine.
I would also like to meet...
*I wish I could have met Malcolm X, Princess Diana, Anna Nicole Smith, & Dorothy Dandridge.
And eventhough they have gone on...
Music:
Huge JANET JACKSON FAN!!!
*I'm in no holds barred with this category, too. I like jazz, r&b, punk rock, classical, hip-hop, country, and musicals (i.e. Julie Andrews and Barbara Streisand).
Movies:
*I can't even begin to share my plethra of movies. To make it simple I love classic films with people like Dorothy Dandridge, Joan Crawford, Bette Davis, Marlon Brando, etc...Which were the grand templates that gave birth to modern film. I have a deep appreciation of Old Hollywood, because that's where it started, and made it possible for actors like myself to continue into the future.
*I also love Comedys, Horror, Drama, and the classic Black films (y'all know what I'm talkin about...Friday, Coming to America, The Color Purple, What's Love Got To Do With It, and so on...)
*MERYL STREEP IS MY FAVORITE ACTRESS!!!
Television:
*The best shows of all time (especially for young African Americans) is A Different World and The Cosby Show!!! And don't even try to debate me on this, okay?
*I also love Deseprate Housewives, Brothers & Sisters, Grey's Anatomy, the L word, I Love Lucy, South Park, Dawson's Creek, Girlfriends, Seinfeld, American Idol Season 1 and the auditions, The Steve Harvey Show, Friends, Oprah After the Show, Being Bobby Brown, The Anna Nicole Show, etc...
Books:
*Like I said earlier I love reading and studying other people's lives, and the way that they approach them (both fiction and real).
*I have too many books to even list...anyone who knows me always sees me chillin with a book.
*"The imagination is a powerful thing!"
Heroes:
*Of course my strong support of family and friends, who are too many to mention, but you know who you are!
*Halle Berry, because she perfectly exemplifies defeating odds and paving new trails for women of color in Hollywood.
*Oprah, who is the Mama Moses of the United States.
*Dorothy Dandridge, because she is a constant reminder of how far women of color have come in the Entertainment Industry. She and many others fought and suffered, so that I could have a chance!
*My little sister Ashley, who was born with cerbal palsy, but still fights everyday to overcome her disadvantage, while charming all who encounter her warm spirit.
