I grew up in Atlanta, Georgia, and I honestly started performing for my family when I was around three. I would jump up on the coffee table and I would get in the closet and ask that they introduce me to come out, and from that point on, my mother stuck me in dance class and children's theater.

I think a coffee table is one of the most important things. It's where everything happens.
There was always Helmut Newton coffee table books around when I was growing up.
