As A Woman, You Feel Like You

I've Always Been Business-minded. I Worked In Corporate America Before Becoming An Actress And Knew That Acting Wasn't The End But A Means To An End. It Gave Me The Platform And The Exposure I Needed To Do My Philanthropic Work. It Also Gave Me The Financial Security To Focus On My Other Businesses, Start New Businesses, And Even Help Other People Start Businesses.

In My Family, There Was One Cardinal Priority - Education. College Was Not An Option; It Was Mandatory. So Even Though We Didn’t Have A Lot Of Money, We Made It Work. I Signed Up For Financial Aid, Pell Grants, Work Study, Anything I Could.

I Love To Be Pursued. I Think That When You're Not A Challenge, It's Just Nnot As Fun For The Guy.

I Think What I Love Most About Oprah's Brand That I Would Love To Do With The Eva Longoria Brand Is She Has Purpose With Her Brand. Everything She Does Means Something.

I Won A Scholarship To Come To La And Compete In A Modeling And Talent Completion And Was Amazed When I Won It. I Had Never Acted Before In My Life And Won The Acting Category. I Began To Wonder What This Is About And Then Decided To See What Happened.
