I just remember I wanted to make my own dynasty and not keep following trends. I wanted to make my own.

When we did Dynasty, it was the clothes. I think the clothes affected every woman around the world. I got so many letters, I think we made the designer a millionaire!

Dynasty was the opportunity to take charge of my career rather than waiting around like a library book waiting to be loaned out.

All the cliches of glamorous sophistication have little appeal to me. Do I want to live the British version of 'Dynasty?' No thanks!

When you're winning, you're creating a dynasty.

Right after Dynasty ended I had a facelift and laser surgery to get rid of lines around my eyes.

I wanted to make a movie about a black family in Middle America. I wanted to make a film where everyone can look at them and say, 'This is my family.'

Knowing that my ancestry had all been quite wealthy and owned their own businesses probably left me with the ambition to replicate what they'd done.

I wanted to be an up-to-date king. But I didn't have much time.

I like having black hair. When I was really young, I wanted to be Asian - Asian hair is beautiful. I also wanted to look like the girl in George Michael's 'Father Figure' video.
