When I Sing, I Have

I Need My Man To Be My Homie.

I've Done A Lot Of Fighting In My Time, And I'm Down To Do Some More. I Don't Want To, But You Know, There's Just Certain Things That You Can't Sit Down And Take.

I'm Not Interested In Being Commodified. I'm Not Into Being Sold. I'm Not A Slave.

A Woman Is More Than The Sum Of Her Parts. So I Had An Opportunity To Present Some Work At The White House. I Chose Not Just To Talk About The Sky, The Planet, Love Or Heartache. I Wanted To Actually Be There, To Place A Mark On That Moment.

I Had To Wear A Fat Suit To Play Mma Ramotswe In 'the No 1 Ladies' Detective Agency.' She's Described As Being Like A Small Elephant, But She Loves Her Body And Size. When We Were Filming In Africa, It Was 110f. It Was Torturous. I Drank A Lot Of Water And Ate Cucumbers All The Time, And Underneath The Fat Suit I Shed Pounds - I Couldn't Help It.
