When I'm playing Big Momma, it's so much work that all I want to do, when I'm finished, is go back home and just relax and study my lines and get ready for the next day.

As long as there's Big Momma, we're going to bring you comedy.

I've gotten pretty good at leaving characters on the set. I go home and try to relax and regroup and be ready for the next day.

Everybody has a Big Momma: the mother or the grandmother who tells it like it is, keeps it real with them, isn't afraid to tell you the truth about yourself.

I'm most proud of the blessings that God has bestowed upon me, in my life. He's given me the vision to truly see that you can fall down, but you can still get back up. Hopefully I'll learn from my mistakes and have the opportunity to strengthen and improve the next thing I do.

I took pain pills to get to sleep because I didn't want to go to work the next day exhausted.
