More quotes by Gabrielle Union
I like directors who have worked as actors. They know the experience.
Gabrielle Union
When someone who loves and cares about me compliments me, I feel more glamorous than when the flashbulbs are going off on the red carpet.
Gabrielle Union
I was always in the popular crowd, but I really had atrocious teeth. I was encouraged to 'do well in school, 'cause no one's going to marry you!'
Gabrielle Union
We all have to let go of the Prince Charming complex and realize he doesn't necessarily exist in the package we assume he'll come in.
Gabrielle Union
We give a lot of others significance in our lives even when they don't deserve it. It doesn't matter if they're family or if you've known them forever. If they're not good for you, they've got to go.
Gabrielle Union
After Halle Berry does her films and Queen Latifah does her films, it's left to all the black, Latino and Asian actresses to fight over a couple of roles. I opted for some TV. There's just not a ton of work in film.
Gabrielle Union
If we can have drones, we can have brown people on TV, and the world won't end! We need to catch up. We are painfully behind.
Gabrielle Union
I want to be Miss USA or Miss America. I would bring the trophy back to Nebraska. My interests are agriculture and corn. Hey, I'm just riding this train as long as I can. As long as I'm having fun, I'll do it. When it stops being fun, I'll try something else.
Gabrielle Union
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.
Gabrielle Union
I love romantic comedies. They're for me the easiest thing to do and the most natural to do. There's nothing natural about holding an uzi hanging out of a moving van shooting at people. That's not second nature to me, thank God.
Gabrielle Union
I think I'm drawn to more villain-type characters, because it's so cool to get to say all the things you want to say. In Hollywood, you get to this position where you have to bite your tongue so much. You take all your experiences of not being able to say what you really want to say, and channel that through your character.
Gabrielle Union
I can't just say one time of the year I'm going to do something different. I have to commit to a lifestyle behavioral change and just try to be a little bit better today than I was yesterday.
Gabrielle Union
In Hollywood, you play a mom, and the next thing you know, you're on 'The Golden Girls.' They age you so fast.
Gabrielle Union
In Hollywood, you play a mom and instantly, you've got osteoporosis.
Gabrielle Union
My mom is painfully sweet she's from Nebraska.
Gabrielle Union
I don't get enough sleep so I always have undereye bags.
Gabrielle Union
I just kind of assumed that you do a movie and then you leave and you hop onto the next thing. I never thought that people are actually buddies.
Gabrielle Union
I think there's a lot of things that occur within the African-American community, that we would prefer to stay within the African-American community - that we get a little nervous when you start having scenes or dialogue that we know is going to be viewed and heard on a national or global scale.
Gabrielle Union
I'm not going to change the world overnight. It's one person at a time, and hopefully they're people in positions of power who can help people get in those roles and really, truly embrace colorblind casting.
Gabrielle Union
I just thought acting would be something to help out with my student loans, but my first year as an actress, I made more money than my parents. That's when I realized it could turn into a career. After that, I put everything I had into it.
