Quotes

  • [on playing a bisexual on Riverdale] I’m trying to represent to the greatest of my abilities, and playing a biracial, bisexual young woman is a lot of pressure because I want to do a good job of doing that. I find Toni to be super unique and I just love playing her! She’s a super badass chick, and now I love her relationship with Cheryl, it’s so great.
