I've seen 'Hamilton.' I'm obsessed. The music is crazy.
-
Meditation, yoga, working out, and eating well. That's my wellness. And I think occasionally you have to treat yourself, so if you do need to take yourself shopping, go take yourself shopping.
-
I would love to appear in 'Scandal,' something like that, or 'Grey's Anatomy' because I think they're incredible.
-
It's kind of epic to see four women really be physically and mentally strong, in themselves and in their lives. That's what 'Widows' is.
-
I don't believe that many things are impossible to achieve so long as you put your mind to it and take the time to get it done.
-
You sense when something is special, but you don't know how special it is until it's in front of an audience.
-
Put me somewhere, tell me what to do, and I can get it done.
-
Just because I don't look like everybody else doesn't mean that I can't be just as beautiful.
-
I try to ignore the Tonys buzz as much as possible. It's wonderful to be thought of that way, but I have to kind of pretend it's not happening so I can keep focus. It's about the work I'm doing, and it's more than enough to come away knowing that people are changed when they leave the theater.
-
As a singer, I like to have a warm beverage with me all the time.
-
I became a fitness fiend when I was about 17 or 18.
-
If your body is working correctly, and then you get a cold or something, that cold probably won't knock you out as hard as it would have if you weren't healthy.
-
My faith is with me always.
-
If you believe in chakras - head and heart - I think singing opens them up, like a wide open door.
-
I do love to get my nails done.
-
If you're going to go for a thing, there's no point unless you're going all the way.
-
The thing that disturbs me the most, being in England, is that on the screen we don't see very many of us - there aren't very many black girls. They don't make the roles for us, or they don't see us in those roles.
-
What I want to see is more mixed casts. We need it. People need to be brave - in the real world, everyone and anyone is around. So if people get to see themselves on the stage, they'll want to come.
-
I do have my own washing machine, but I do miss going to the laundromat. I love the smell of fabric softener.
-
One of my favourite pieces is 'Antony and Cleopatra' - I'd love to be in that. Or an alternative version of 'Romeo & Juliet' where I get to play Mercutio, something like that.
-
I like Traditional Medicinals for most teas I drink.
-
I don't have dairy because I'm a singer and, quite frankly, I don't want to mess around with my vocal chords and how those behave, and dairy is an allergen for me.
-
I don't drink anything other than water and herbal tea.
-
I love that I can demonstrate that it's OK to look and be strong.
