I Wish All Men Were Like Dogs.

I Never Even Think About The Physicality Of Roles, Until Honestly I Get The Gig And I Think, 'ok, Now What Do I Have To Do In This One?' Like, I Approach It Thinking More About The Character - Do I Respond To It? Is It Something I Think I Can Play? Does It Seem Like It'll Be Fun?

Blackness Is A State Of Mind And I Identify With The Black Community. Mainly, Because I Realized, Early On, When I Walk Into A Room, People See A Black Woman, They Don't See A White Women. So Out Of That Reason Alone, I Identify More With The Black Community.

I Think It's Always Best To Be Who You Are.

What's Hardest For Me To Swallow Is When There Is A Love Story, Say, With A Really High-profile Male Star And There's No Reason I Can't Play The Part. They Say, 'oh, We Love Halle, We Just Don't Want To Go Black With This Part.'

A Person's Self-esteem Has Nothing To Do With How She Looks.
