And today I'm gonna be looking through my life in looks.

I became Miss Teen America and then Miss USA for the World Pageant.

In this dress, hair was like big, fluffy hair.

You move your whole head and the whole hair the whole head just goes with.

That's how hair sprayed it was, but it was fire at the time.

Oh, this is back in the day when you carried your makeup around in a kit and I was like, Okay to do That's what was in that kit.

That's where my love of the leopard print was born.

I still love a good leopard print, and I can see like the high waist jeans, chunky heel boots.

Some of these things I do wear from time to time because they are coming back and, like every decade, honestly can come back and it's happening And that lets you know how old you are when you're old.

Stuff comes back, you realize I still have some of these things and I saved them for that reason.

This was somewhere in Atlanta, I can tell you that this was my Atlanta look, just because I know I remember the look, the belly out, the shorts, the big belt, the clunky shoes like this was very Atlanta for me at the time, had the Halle Berry haircut as an actor.

I was a young actress and I was going on auditions and every audition I saw another black girl just like me.

And I felt like the casting director just like went, uh, you And then that's who got the job.

It was very much designed to set myself apart from the other women that I was going up against my auditions and the first audition I had since I cut my hair.

I got that job and that was my first job on television called Living Dolls.

It's called short for black American princesses.

This is iconic, especially in the black community and these characters, our beloved.

And it was so on point for the time the nails have come back.

Now, you know, like these three inch long nails, it's all part.

It was also relevant and current at that moment.

I often feel like this movie was a little bit before its time, but it was so on point.

I remember I would have to lather my whole body and like talcum powder just to be able to pull this rubber suit up and then try working in it for about an hour or two.

Then it was just like a sauna inside and just sweat rolling down my legs and like, But I was so happy I was so happy to be in it and and it was just fun.

This is from introducing Dorothy Dandridge.

This role was so important to me and so, uh, special to me to bring the life of Dorothy Dandridge to the screen.

Her clothes were very sexy and very shimmery, so it was a lot of sequence and a lot of Jules, you know, I see diamonds and hair was always very, quite often very tight.

And I always felt that Dorothy was the first African American woman to be nominated as leading lady at the Academy Awards.

And when I did Monster's Ball and then I found myself being nominated.

I had this knowing that somehow it was connected.

I felt so supremely connected to her somehow.

Like when I first tried on her very first dress that her manager gave me it fit like a glove.

And that night when I won, I felt I woke up the next morning feeling like, Wow, I think I finished that for her.

I think that's what I was supposed to do.

So this is the 2000 MTV Awards, and a big shift has happened here.

Obviously gotten way more comfortable with my body because like it's like Powell.

I'm out, it's out and I had on a beaded beaded half rock.

I remember putting this on and being like, Oh, no, this is it.

And thinking, you know, some part of my mind that this could be risky.

But I also started to realize during this time that I had to be authentically myself and wore something that one I could carry and that I felt good in mhm.

This was the Golden Globes, and this was so romantic.

It was such a compliment to my skin color in my hair.

And I just remember loving the lace bodice and the shoulders and just feeling very feminine in this dress and very clear.

And usually when I put all a Valentino dress, it's it's money.

Oh my gosh, The iconic jinx Bond bathing suit.

We tried on so many bathing suits, so many bikinis and so many belts.

Getting this little bathing suit right and choosing the color and the right fit.

And we had a knowing that it would maybe because it was in a bond movie end up being an iconic situation or something that would live a very, very long time.

The biggest acting challenge I had was to make it look like the water was warm and I was having a grand old time when I was freezing my butt off.

This wasn't like a sort of a badass bond girl.

And that was really exciting for me to be.

If I'm going to be a bond girl, I was grateful that I got to be like one like that.

I just remember feeling really great in this dress.

The top was very open and free and just had these little flowers that sort of covered all the right bits that don't need to cover.

But the bottom was very regal and very grand.

And I remember this was Elie Saab, and he wasn't the only Saab we know now.

He was a young designer who was just starting, and at the time it wasn't the biggest name I could have worn.
