My dad is a director/producer and my mom is a dancer; she performed with Alvin Ailey, but I didn't even think about becoming an actress.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I didn't want to become an actress because the competition with my mother would have been to much to live up to.
I'm sure my mum was a huge influence on my wanting to be an actress: just seeing her doing it, seeing her love it, caring about it. Invest in something, take it seriously and be so wonderful.
I was always going to be a dancer - I drifted into acting.
I don't speak English, so I cannot foresee a career in Hollywood. But I do see myself more and more as an actress rather than a dancer.
I've been a ballerina since I was two, but I've always wanted to be an actress.
I've always wanted to act and I grew up a little on film sets when my dad was working as an actor.
I came into the industry as an actor. And moved on to become a star with the help of my dancing skills.
My parents were both actors; my dad sort of quite early on. My mother acted for a while, and now she's a painter.
I was a professional dancer before I was an actor.
I actually got started in acting when I was in pre-school. I was really into dance and performing, so my mom had me in dance classes, and then I got involved in a local theater company.
