That's because I didn't have to work with Madea. I only had to work with Madea once, and that was at the barbecue and I didn't have to get close to her.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Madea is a cross between my mother and my aunt. She's the type of grandmother that was on every corner when I was growing up.
'Madea' is a Southern term. It's short for 'mother dear.' So there are a lot of Madeas out there.
People really love 'Madea' movies and get a kick out of them. They're phenomenally successful. People get excited when a new one's coming out.
If I were to work with my mom, I probably would not want her to play my mom. That would get too real.
My aunt and uncle would come over when my mom was making this, or we would go over there when they were making that. That's what food is.
I love working with PETA.
I would have loved to paint Eartha Kitt, but she's no longer here. I'm so glad I had the chance to meet her.
My mom wasn't so much such a great cook. But I don't know, I think I have a very strong mother, and it's funny, because both of my sisters - I have two sisters, and I'm the baby, but they all work hard. I'm not sure where I get it from, and I'm not sure where they get it from, but they must get it from somewhere... I like to work.
I have worked with Divya Dutta in two National Award-winning Punjabi films. I have known her a long time; she is a fantastic actress. I sent her flowers after I saw 'Bhaag Milkha Bhaag.' Shabana Ji is, of course, a legendary actress. It was a great experience working with her.
I actually met Chick Corea in New York, where I was staying with a bass player friend.
