I come from a family of four brothers, so I like sports.
From Jurnee Smollett
My little brothers loved baseball. I'm not as big on that as basketball or football, but I understand the game.
I like sitting down and watching games.
I love music, and I love drumlines. I like school bands a lot. There's nothing wrong with cheerleading, but I'd rather be a band geek. It's a little more interesting.
I try to give each performance my own soul, to bring a truth to my character. Hopefully, when I bring that much truth to a character, it resonates with somebody, and it sparks some kind of emotion in them.
I don't really think about the critics or the commercial success.
Everyone has a past, but I try not to let that affect the way I see them; I want to get to know who they are today.
Never let anyone silence your voice.
There are so many people who will try and make you feel like your opinion doesn't matter, and I've learned how important it is to use your voice.
When I was younger, I really struggled with confidence.
