# Trademark 1 She often plays a character's mother or grandmother in movies or shows
# Quote 1 I'm in the moment. I'm always in the moment of life. 2 If you don't love it, don't touch it. 3 I want to co-produce again. 4 If you just want to be a star, go away. 5 I've been burn when it comes to my hair that it ain't no joke. 6 I still go to a salon where a gal does my hair, and I don't know if it's because I'm a celebrity but by the time I leave there, we are eating chicken and talking and screaming. 7 You never know when you start a project just how good it can be. 8 You have to be a star to be in this business. 9 Whoopi and I have been friends ever since she claimed she couldn't sing on the set of Sister Act. 10 What if Whitney was at her top, and we brought in a name like Whitney Houston, it would sell. 11 It's important to e alive in those moment, especially when you're doing something you love to do. 12 Saturday night is when my hair would be fixed up and that was my memory. 13 Sometimes I think I take on a lot of work but that's me. 14 I had not starred in an independent film and it's about a woman who owned a hair salon. 15 If you can find something you love, go for it everyday of your life, and it would be really good to you. 16 America has a relationship with Bobby and Whitney. 17 Apart from being Jenifer Lewis. The name pulls people in. 18 We didn't have a beauty shop as I grew up. 19 I don't have any beauty shop memories. I remember the barber shop. 20 But a true diva has dismissed that drama. A true diva's heart is open, and she's ready to play by her own rules - rules that are gentle and kind. 21 You are a black goddess when you come out the salon. 22 You think you can go into all those auditions not knowing who you are? The work came after I found my sense of self - when I wasn't so manic and desperate. 23 A diva is someone who pretends to know who she is and looks fabulous doing it.
