I can bring Rain with me everywhere I go, but when she's in school, I don't know what I'll do. The longest I've been away from her is three days, and I cried my eyes out. The first day of school will be so hard. Show less «

Every year, my family and I would go visit my mom's family in Texas. We would drive from Chicago to Texas, and once we started to get towards San Antonio, everyone looked like me! It was such a great feeling. Everyone had the same brown skin that I did. Show less «

I really want to work with Tim Burton and Johnny Depp.

I would love to do a really stupid character on The Office (2005). I'm so an 'Office' fan.

I'm pretty good with languages.

If I'm going to work, hopefully I have a late call time, and can hang out with Rain and our nanny until we shoot.

I am not really ever accused of being shy or meek.

If you want a favorite book, Orson Scott Card's 'Ender's Game'. You'll be hooked. I think he's written like twelve or thirteen.
