IFWT_Tika_Sumpter_Rolling_Out

She embodies sexy, sas and confidence – Tika Sumpter, one of the leading characters in The Haves and the Have Nots covers Rolling Out and looks awesome doing so. Tika reveals the key behind what’s got her to this point in her career:

“Don’t look at other people and compare yourself. Just do the work. Because when the opportunity is there, you have to be ready. Make sure your craft is refined and you’re constantly working on it. Plow through the weeds. Go to the auditions and go to the meetings and be on time. Stop looking to the left or the right. Keep your head down and keep moving.”

I’d have to say that it’s working for her! The rejections in life has only built her up to be the strong black, female actress/model that we view on television today. “Life is messy. People make decisions. Sometimes art imitates life,” says the beauty. Love it – Love her! For more, hit down bottom.
