a great, black father.

My mother wanted me to be a lawyer and I wanted to be an Actor. So I went to school, majored in theatre, and said 'Mom, I have to choose my own destiny. I want to be an actor.' A couple of weeks after I graduated college I called my mother up and said 'Can I borrow $200?' and she said 'Why don't you act like you've got $200.'

In Oklahoma City, it can be 50 degrees below zero outside. In Los Angeles, it's 78. In Oklahoma City, it can be 110 degrees outside. In Los Angeles, it's 78. In Oklahoma City, there are 2 million hard-working, church-going, industrious people. In Los Angeles, there's 78.

I knew going in that being a single parent would be one of the toughest jobs I'd ever have. I'd been a talk-show host, actor, comic, and on and on, but this gig was going to be my defining moment.

I am consumed with the fear of failing. Reaching deep down and finding confidence has made all my dreams come true.

I don't possess a lot of self-confidence. I'm an actor so I simply act confident every time I hit the stage.
