I really never had any ambitions to be a standup comic. I was talked into it by guys that I used to work out with.
But really, we also need to learn how to love one another as women. How to appreciate and respect each other.
We worked for 11 years to get where we are today, and I want to take our work seriously so that later on I'll be able to appreciate the money we've made.
All in all, we'll just do well as a team. We've got a great group of guys, and they're just willing to work. That's what I like being around, just dudes who want to enjoy it and just work really hard.
The way it actually works is the reverse. You must first be who you really are, then do what you need to do, in order to have what you want.
I really love Andrew Dominik's movies. When you work with someone whose movies you really love and who you have a lot of admiration for, you turn into putty in their hands.
I have a huge respect for writers and realise that this is not an area that I find easy. I doubt that I would have the patience in front of a blank sheet of paper to become a writer.
In the early '90s, when I really started to find my voice, I was reading a lot of books, and I was moved by the writers, like Chinua Achebe, and I wanted to be able to write rhymes that were as potent as what I was reading.
When I first set out to do it, I wanted to be a working actor, and now it seems like it's superseded even my dreams.
