To see another fat girl on television, I think, is really powerful. I'm happy to open the doors for a younger generation of fat, black women to be visible, to be seen, to be heard.

I've said it before, but I'll say it again because you can't say it enough: Your skin is beautiful - dark, light, in the middle, whatever. Brown is beautiful. Your hair is beautiful. If you wear a weave, it's beautiful. If you choose to be natural, that's beautiful. Also, you are enough.

Putting a wig on and a costume and doing a wacky character is always fun.

I wear a lot of vintage, thrifted stuff.

My mom was a really positive, jovial person, so I try to keep it upbeat like that.
