Quote

I use my platform for more than just myself. Art is a reflection of human emotions. To neglect the political is to neglect what essentially is your job of storytelling. I would rather be known for the content of my character than for the project that I did.

To me, America is a symbol of all different views, different types of people coming together.

The price point and the quality are very rare. I don't want people thinking, I got the look for less. I want them thinking, I got the look!

You can shop the clothing line from the app and everybody who subscribes gets 15% off everything. It's a closer look into my life, what I'm like, what I do. I like to make people laugh, so a lot of the content is me being a doofus, which is who I am.

I couldn't choose between all of those things! I looooove acting and dancing on Shake It Up, and I am currently in the recording studio working on my music. And one of my dreams is to walk down the runway during fashion week!

Well, I would say that Shake It Up was a chance for me to do two things I really love: acting and dancing.

I've been blessed with good eyebrows, and I've worked very hard for them. Get a good brow pencil, fill them in a bit, make them perfect, and I guarantee you'll feel better. At least it works for me.

I like playing with fashion and bending the rules, or what was rules - there are no rules anymore, you know? Fashion is way bigger than that and it's about wearing what you want and wearing what makes you feel comfortable and what makes you feel confident.

I grew up watching That's So Raven and Lizzie McGuire, and I said to myself that I could do that one day, and here I am. This is a dream come true and I am just ecstatic to be here living out my childhood dreams.

Well, I am not sure of when my album will be released but my music has a lot of different sounds. I'm a hip-hop/R&B girl at heart, but I love pop music as well, and I even have an affinity for country music. So I would say my music might have something for everyone.

I have a really strong passion for what I do. I don’t see myself doing anything else.

Image
I do not believe in a label on a shirt or a dress should tell me that I can't wear a T-shirt or a pant because it should say women'sor men's on it, you know? That's just not how it should work.

I just like to have fun.

I was very inspired by working women, and also women who aren't working yet! I want them to have shoes that feel luxurious and special and well-crafted and thought about. But also, they should have shoes that won't break the bank. You don't have to spend three years saving up for beautiful shoes.

My wearing my hair in locs on an Oscar red carpet was to showcase them in a positive light, to remind people of color that our hair is good enough.

There are so many great things in life why dwell on negativity?

Determination. No matter what field you're in, determination will surely get you to the top.

I get to represent a lot of different types of women because of my ability to transform into these different people.
