DeWanda Wise Instagram – 2016/2008. I always thought growing up & living life on my own terms was going to be amazing and nearly every day I think to myself… I WAS RIGHT, I KNEW IT!!!!! 🤣🥳 Yesterday a friend asked if I still actually love acting or if I was just going through the motions. Blessedly, miraculously, I love it more than ever. One of the most wild surprises is coming across so many artists who no longer do, and yet continue to take up space. I certainly hope more impassioned people continue to break through, find their way, and keep their peace. Cheers to the little grown lady I’ve been forever, & all the other “old souls” living the life of their dreams this wild ride of a lifetime. #Throwback {Two snaps of De in orange formal wear. First for a PR shoot in 2016, and then at a party in 2008. Never a shopper, both dresses were borrowed.}
