Viola Davis reveals Juilliard trained her by putting a pencil in her mouth to check her tongue position
"No one wants to see a play or a movie and look at technical proficiency. You wanna be moved. You want a human experience, you wanna feel less alone. They don't get at that"
"They get at, literally, when you are rehearsing at Juilliard, they have a teacher with a pencil who follows you through the rehearsal and puts the pencil in your mouth to see where your tongue is and where it's positioned when you articulate"
"Or there's a person following you throughout rehearsal, holding your ribcage to see if you're breathing properly through your diaphragm"
"And so when it gets like that and you leave yourself and your soul behind, you're not an artist"
"And can I just say, on top of that, it's Eurocentric training. So when you're studying all of those classics, there's a clear idea of what all of those characters look like. And that's not me"
"So then what am I supposed to do with my Blackness? What am I supposed to do with my deep voice and my wide nose?"
Tom Holland and Zendaya when asked which team they are supporting at the World Cup:
Tom: “It’s England for me.”
Zendaya: “I don’t really follow it, so I’m gonna support who you support, I love you so much.”
