I'm always sensitive to that because... I have a mother who's brown skin and was the darkest one of her sisters and grew up in the South and is aware of the contrast. And it was like, I see you as chocolatey deliciousness. And I'm going to tell you something else about you, NTC. It's because of you that we ever even won an Emmy.

I'm not aware of that because immediately I don't see it that way. Like I said, you know, I grew up in a household with a mother who's brown skinned. It was very, you know, the contrast was talked about and all the things. In fact, my summers were the best because I would get extra money to go to the beach and get brown like a berry like her. And then we would compare.
