I Tend To Play Characters That Arent

I Definitely Am Drawn To Strong Females Who Are Successful, Smart Women Because I Am A Woman Like That. I Think It's Important To Portray Those Kinds Of Women On Film And Television. Especially As A Black Woman, I Think It's Important.

I Did Do A Little Research. I Went To A Couple Really Fantastic Strip Clubs With Really Talented Dancers, Just In Terms Of Their Physical Prowess. For The Scene, There Was A Whole Dance Routine That I Had To Do, So I Worked With A Pole Dance Instructor Who Helped Me Choreograph A Number For That Scene. We Broke Down The Principles Of Pole Dancing, For Three Days, For An Hour A Day.

I've Been To Strip Clubs Where The Dancers Have These Whole Routines That They Create Just For The Wow Factor And To Say, 'look How Strong And Physically Fit I Am.' Most Women Couldn't Do It, And It's Not Necessarily Sexual. It's Just A Performance.

Every Actress Hopes To Play A Wide Range Of Characters Because Not Often You Dont.

I Tend To Play Characters That Arent Supposed To Black Or Written Black.
