00:00This is my first Essence cover, which is very exciting. I think it's a very, you know,
00:14it's a monumental moment as a young black woman. First of all, I get to do it in this beautiful
00:20tropical setting, which is like even doper. Just living it up with nature. So I think I
00:27definitely win with that. Yes, this is my first time in Rio. It's actually my first
00:31time in South America, I believe. So this is very exciting for me.
00:39Who inspires my confidence on the red carpet? I would say every woman that ever sees a picture
00:44of me and is inspired in some form or another and gains confidence from that. That's what
00:48gives me confidence simply by having the guts to go out and wear a mullet, you know, to the
00:53Grammys. I think in many ways, a lot of women can look at that and say, dang, like, if she
00:58can do that, then, you know, I can go to school and wear whatever the heck I want, even though
01:01so-and-so says it was whack. I'm wearing that shirt because I like it. That's what inspires
01:05me is knowing that there's somebody out there that needed to see it.
01:10As soon as I get back home, I go out and start doing Spider-Man, which I'm very excited about
01:14because I've been wanting to break into, you know, a different space of the acting world
01:18for a long time. We're, you know, probably going to have another season of KCN to cover,
01:23you know, which I love. I'm very excited about finishing my album, which I hope to be
01:26finishing within the next few months. I feel like a lot of young people, especially who
01:31have ever dealt with, like, love in any form, can really relate to. Balancing that with everything
01:36else that I have going on in the fashion world, so it's a lot, but it's great. My number
01:41one thing is, you know, all the charity and all the, you know, inspirational stuff that
01:46I get to do, which is really the reason behind all of it.
