I encourage anyone wishing to sponsor Donielle's Walk for Lupus to visit http://donate.lupus.org/goto/donielleartese. This is a cause very near and dear to her heart, having survived the ravages of the disease herself, and overcoming kidney failure as well as a stroke as a result of it.

Thank you for posting this

I really loved seeing her on the show. It was nice to see a black person not playing a stereotype. This girl is very beautiful.

Not fair.

Oh, JS, I thought that was an incredibly poignant moment. And we talked about it, but…with some things you just have to leave them alone — let the work speak for itself.

I thought the most profound moment involving Sheila was when she was off screen. I'm talking about Sally Draper asking if Sheila was Paul's maid….that little scene spoke volumes.

The Cameron Diaz thing is priceless. As is The Artist Currently Known As Prince being a MM fan.

I wish you had included some more stuff about being a black actress who is not Beyonce or Alicia Keys. That sounds fun.

LOL, portias…but I want her to work some more.

We talked about a lot of things and actually NAMED NAMES. I don’t want someone getting the wrong idea about something that may have been said tongue in cheek (even if it was true) and have that affect her career.
