I was at one time a football wife, and there is a certain level of bonding that happens between women who are the wives of football players.

I'm not sensitive, I'm not a weepy person.

I'm not the type to lay out on the beach, but I do love to work out outside, and that can really take a toll on your skin!

I'm the kind of person whose clothes are all hung up and color-coordinated, to the point where my whites don't touch my creams.

I've always had an interest in sports across the board.

If my real life was half as exciting as what is reported, I would be thrilled.

In Hollywood, marriages are kind of expected to fail.

In Hollywood, you play a mom and instantly, you've got osteoporosis.

In Hollywood, you play a mom, and the next thing you know, you're on 'The Golden Girls.' They age you so fast.

My friends are very opinionated about the people I date.

My mom is painfully sweet; she's from Nebraska.

People think that celebs make a lot more money than we do. We look for bargains and we do a lot of stuff on our own.

Reality TV looks more like America than movies do.

The black community in Hollywood is very small and close-knit. Everyone has a common goal: to make a two-hour movie in 30 days.

The guys I tended to date, you know, didn't necessarily have it altogether but I had a great time.

There's no such thing as a healthy tan, and that's what people need to understand.

We don't consider black, urban films as 'indies,' though many of them are shot for under $10 million which is kind of the definition of an indie.

You have to be resilient.

You have to develop a very thick skin.

You want to come home to a nice firm bed with the corners tucked in so you start over, like each night is like a new night.
