Our Baby Shower:). It was such an amazing feeling to have our families host a baby shower for us and to spend great time with our loved ones. Robert and I get more and more excited with everyday. To our friends and family- thank you for sharing in this journey with us and for making sure this baby knows just how loved they already are. We had a good good time! p.s. this dress choice is hinting at nothing. I honestly just liked the color. 🤗😉 #babyshower

10 Years Ago—-I really didn’t know what direction I was headed—-with my art, my career or my life…..but then, through the power of @ijnej and the world and characters she created on @oitnb my life and the lives of our cast and crew would never be the same. I couldn’t be more grateful for the lifelong friendships, memories and love made along the way with these talented women. Jenji, Thank You for seeing us and taking a chance on new voices and possibilities for stories. To @jennifer_euston_casting who saw me in my play, and called me in to audition for this show, I will forever be one thing—grateful. To everyone who watched Orange, then and now, THANK YOU! We simply wouldn’t be here without you. Orange forever! #oitnb

Today. Went out into the street to join my fellow @sagaftra union members to seek a needed change within our community. To stand together and make clear that the experiences of the privileged few should not be the voice of the many. It should not be the standard or the status quo that someone has a job, is working and still is unable to make their rent. It is an inequity needing close examination and necessary change. We are here, brothers and sisters. We are ready. We are united. #sagaftra #sagaftrastrong

Ron Cephas Jones. The first time I ever saw this great artist’s work was in a play called The Overwhelming. He was magical, powerful really. I didn’t know I would have the pleasure of sharing the stage with Ron just two short years ago.
What a titan.
So beloved by our community, and a genius with his craft; he would share his wisdom and knowledge about this art we all so deeply, deeply love. But, more he shared with us his heart. Generously. Ever a teacher, we all learned so much from Ron, and we continue to carry his lessons. It is that knowledge that helps me know he will be with us. forever.
My prayers and love to his daughter, Jasmine, who he so loved, his family, and to all who loved “the cool cat” known on this earth as Ron Cephas Jones. May you forever rest, sir.

National Girlfriend Day. This is from my traditional wedding with my Aso Ebi(bridesmaids and brides men!). I have been blessed in this life to have women who are truly inspirational to me. Whether blood sisterhood, elementary school, college, audition rooms, cast mates, teammates, roommates, suite mates. We have seen much in this life, the shadows and the light, and I am just thankful to have walked through those moments with you. Really truly. I have looked up to each of you for your huge hearts, love, and just all-around badass greatness 💛💛. Here’s to all the female friendships- some featured here and from all corners of life. The great ones. They mean the world. #nationalgirlfriendday
Proud, PROUD sister!!!!! I’m so excited for my sister @ohheyitschioma and her new position as PRESIDENT with top advertising agency @droga5 It is a massive accomplishment, well-earned by her intelligence, sharp eye, and hard work. Cheech, you’ve always been a high achiever who graces everything you come across with class and increase. I have no doubt you will continue to do the same in this space. Love you and I’m just so happy!!!! Well DONE. Cheering you on. Always. Your Sister, Uz
My Girl Natasha. I came to NYC in the Spring to see @natashayvettewilliams in @somelikeithotmusical but alas, my roommate🤰🏾had other plans(#IYKYK). But, I FINALLY got to see her and this show and it was a JOY. Natasha is one my very first friends in this business. Everyone who knows Tasha knows the pure love, heart, GOOD, talent, kindness, and faith that comes from her. It is never ending. We have seen so much life together- helping move, marriage, first homes, debuts, births, loss, Happy times, and really hard times.
I love this woman. So much. And to see her work in this show was a must. Natasha is brilliant. But, to know that it was deservedly recognized with a Tony Award Nomination could only match what we who know and love you, Tash, have always known: you are a star for The Ages. What an incredible performance you gave. Incredible. Congrats to everyone on that stage working. You were all fantastic. It was wonderful to watch the excitement we all love of the big Broadway show brought so beautifully, and effortlessly, into the modern age. Love you, Tash!!!! XxoU #theaterkid
