B&B: So, what are you interested in?
AB:
I am interested in acting. I am taking acting classes and I’m trying to make that thing come true. My dream is to play a basketball playing role.

B&B: How does your height work against you?
AB:
I haven’t been in that many music videos because of my height. I don’t get cast for stuff because of it. I don’t want to do those kinds of music videos anyways. For “Amusement Park,” I was in a bumper car – which was fun. I was a girl in the club for Mario’s – so you could see me, but I guess to be a lead, you have to compliment the artist and I’m tall. [Laughs]

B&B: If you could compliment any artist that you like; who would it be?
AB:
I would love to be in a Jay-Z video. I think he’s the best rapper alive. I like Lil Wayne, too. I would love to complement Beyoncé. I think I could be like her homegirl in a video. We’d be really cute together. [Laughs] She may end up hatin’ on me, though!

B&B: So, is that why you’re single?
AB:
Nah, I’ve had the same boyfriend since high school and he’s 6’6”. He plays basketball overseas. He is very supportive. He’s more excited when I book something than I am. I don’t know why he’s excited, but he sees me out there auditioning and when I make it, he really loves it. It’s one of those things where we feel the same and have a beautiful chemistry together.

B&B: Most people break up around the summertime – how can you keep your relationship going through those hot months?
AB:
You can go to amusement park and get some ice cream. Go to a spa together and just relax. Take a vacation somewhere. I would love to go to Miami. A park always works to have a picnic. My boyfriend and I are really cool. We went to a Laker game, when they were in the playoffs, and went to dinner afterwards. That was our most romantic moment.

B&B: You think that the Lakers are going to take it all?
AB:
I know they are going to do it. When I first saw him jump over the car, I started laughing. It didn’t look fake. He probably thought it was cute. When he did an interview, he was really silly in the interview. I thought it was hilarious when he first did it.

B&B: So, who’s better – Michael Jordan or Kobe Bryant?
AB: Kobe Bryant
is better than Michael Jordan. I wasn’t really a fan of MJ’s, I’ve always been a Lakers fan and I can’t see past that purple and gold jersey.

B&B: What are you doing to get into more TV and film?
AB:
I am taking a lot of classes and have actually been in one film. Even if I don’t fit the part, I’ll read for everything. It makes me more comfortable. I practice everyday. I am reading, right now, Ivonna Chubbuck's The Power of the Actor. My power is to just go as hard as I can, everyday and to do my best. I have a script that I’m reading for Dead Zero. The character is the opposite of what I am. She’s so different. I would love to do that because it would be different. It’s a horror film about 12-inmates and they’re in a bus crash and the woods that they crash in are haunted.

B&B: Would you be able to do a love scene and not upset your boyfriend?
AB:
I wouldn’t do it on a low budget type of movie. It would have to make sense to me to do it. But I could do it. My boyfriend would be very uncomfortable with it though. I am not just some girl who is willing to get into this business just because of who they know, who they can sleep with or who they can talk to to get into the game. I’m willing to work for success. I don’t want it handed to me just because someone likes me.
