As an entertainer, I try to do projects that reflect a woman having the ability to stand up for herself.

When I do stand-up, I'm basically doing a one-man show.

I've learned so much as both a writer and a human.

I'm trying to show I'm a trained actress - I can transform myself into different characters. I'm not just an ingenue.

I'm a showgirl. After 20 years in show business, I've learned to roll with the punches.

I'm learning simplicity and how to wear my body. I'm enjoying life and trying to be the best me.

My goal when I make my show is to make a show for women. I don't make a show for men.

Being a human being is all about experiencing all of the wonders of the world and therefore as an actress, I'm open to any opportunity that may enrich my horizon.

I have been doing so much. Speaking engagements... producing... developing a half-hour sitcom... working on a movie... leading acting workshops all over the world... and hosting 'My Black Is Beautiful,' an empowerment TV show I'm doing on BET for women.

I am just a human being trying to make it in a world that is rapidly losing its understanding of being human.
