My daughter. I’ve never been in love so quickly, so deeply in my entire life. I really don’t know what to say, guys. My heart is full. Thank you, God. I have joy like a fountain. I have witnessed a miraculous thing, and I feel blessed to know you are ours. We love you so much, Adaiba Lee Nonyem – Daughter of the people, treasurer of the mother’s names who came before you.
I’m a Mommy you guys.
Motherhood. I’ve joined the club. I hear the dues are high, but the membership is completely worth it:). #grateful

My beautiful and loving Mother. She went to go live with God on this day three years ago, but I am so grateful that she LIVED. This photo is from the day I got married. Doesn’t she look so beautiful and happy? I think so:). As my family and I prepare to welcome a little life into this world, I remember and honor her; I’m thankful she knew just how loved she was and how loved she still remains, here, on earth. I love you, Mommy. Everyday. Your Zozo.
Well, would ya just look who it is! Yuuuup, it’s THE @uzoaduba, y’all 🫶😍 This week on my pod, Dinner’s on Me, we head to @thefrontyardla in LA—and let me tell you, we did not hold back on ordering their hummus and crudité. It was truly a delight. On this ep, Uzo tells me all about growing up in a Nigerian household in the suburbs of Boston, her theater roots and being in awe of Cate Blanchett. Head to my bio now to listen and I hope you enjoy! (This episode was recorded on June 22, 2023.)

Humanity. I think we can agree that all children should be kept safe and home with the ones they love. Prayers for peace. 🙏🏿
On October 7th, Hagar (39), Ofri (10), Yuval (4) and Oria (8) were all stolen from their home when Hamas terrorists invaded Israel. They are four of 229 hostages being held captive in Gaza in unknown conditions for over three weeks. They should be home with the rest of their family.
Release Hagar, Ofri, Yuval and Oria now! #ReleaseTheHostagesNow

Proud PROUD friend!!!! This cover 😍😍. The beauty and the talent that is @nlyonne who works tirelessly at her craft and personal style is on the cover of @harpersbazaarsg Natasha, I love this LOOK, this STORY, the whole thing! But, more than that I love YOU. For always being there as friend, support, cheerleader, on both big and small days. The sky is just the start, and I can’t wait to see what’s next! BEAMING. Your friend, Uzi 🙌🏿🙌🏿
Lights, camera, @uzoaduba! We’re excited to reveal that the fabulous Uzo Aduba is our October digital cover star!
This isn’t Aduba’s first time up to bat. The Emmy-winning actress—you probably know her from #OrangeIstheNewBlack, Painkiller and being a #Broadway staple—Boston native has been doing her thing for a few decades now, and she’s not about to stop.
That being said, the multi-hyphenate (she is one of only two actors to win the award in both the comedy and drama categories for the same role) is on to a new endeavor this fall—that of a first-time mom. And, at the age of 42, and she’ll be the first to tell you that required some updating of the resume.

JAJA’S AFRICAN HAIR BRAIDING ON BROADWAY!!
Run to see this amazing show in its closing weekend. Go go! 🙂
I tuned in for the LIVE SCREENING last night and laughed all night long! My heart was also moved by the deeper, richer struggles of each character and their experiences.
Such a joy watching this cast from beginning to end.
I’m incredibly proud of my friend and award-winning playwright— @jjbioh ——as well as @yesimwhitneywhite for their amazing work in telling this story and shining a bright light on a group of talented West African immigrant women, who bring such hard work, talent, and creativity to our communities and are most often overlooked.
From the set design, characters, their love stories, and challenges, I was with you all every step of the way.
To the entire cast and crew. Well DONE, and Congratulations!

THE #SagAftraStrike is OVER!
After 118 Days–Together @sagaftra family, We Can See a New Day!
To our TV/Theatrical Negotiating Committee, THANK YOU for your unwavering dedication to raising the standard and persistence in securing the right deal.
All union members deserve to make a fair living, and I am happy a much-needed change has come.
The countless hours spent deliberating did not go unseen, and we thank you. I am proud of the fight for fairness within AI, streaming guidelines, and more opportunities for diverse communities.
We walked together, we sang together, and we are stronger together! The love, strength, and courage I witnessed among members on the picket lines blew me away. I love us!
To think—these 118 days will impact not only our current industry but also future generations to come.
We are here, and we are united.
