Javicia Leslie
Movie and Television Actress Meet Javicia Leslie, television and movie actress who has achieved success and fame through hard work and passion.
W
hat is one of your favorite things about being an actress?
Who or what inspires you to chase your dreams?
I love being able to be anything I want! When I was growing up, I wanted to be so many things. I wanted to be a teacher, a lawyer, an actress, a writer, and so much more! As an actress, I am able to play all of those things! It’s so much fun!
I am inspired by little brown girls who are seeing me as a representation! When I was growing up, I didn’t see faces like mine on the tv often. I am constantly reminding myself to be that example for little girls, to see that they can be whatever they want!
