British actress and singer Cynthia Erivo, a multi-award winner, shared that she has always felt “different” ever since she was young.
In a recent interview with Empire magazine, the Wicked star explained that these feelings have shaped her to become who she is today.
“I’ve felt different my whole entire life. I think I just am. I think I’m an oddball. And that’s okay.” Erivo shared.
The 37-year-old actress spoke about the bitter realities of the industry, stating that being a Black woman often means feeling somewhat outside of society’s standards.
Reflecting on her journey, the Oscar-winning star revealed that success isn’t just about having fancy things and living a luxurious life, but it’s more about the freedom you have and how you live your life on your own.
