‘Win a Golden Globe [for Black-ish],’ he babbled. “I’ve never been to the Emmys.” I can’t be on late night talk shows.’

The performer revealed that while starring on his series, Girlfriend, which ran for eight seasons between 2000 to 2006, talent Jay Leno once told his publicist: ‘We love Tracee. Call us when he lands a role we care about.’

‘The moment at the Golden Globes really took my career to a different place. I’ve always been the same person. But it changed a few other things,” he told the outlet.

When asked what he hates most about Hollywood, the Los Angeles native said: “The hard part is that there are a lot of frustrating moments.” You’re up against a system that frankly wasn’t built for expansive liberation.’

“Fortunately I come from a family where I was taught not only to know who I am, I was given an environment to develop and develop and be myself and to believe in who I am and to use my voice to not be afraid of authority.” , ‘ he continues.

Legendary singer Diana Ross’ daughter went on to insist that “Hollywood doesn’t scare” her and that she believes in who she is and uses her voice and is “not afraid of authority.”

And, he still thinks that the entertainment industry is ‘meant to support creative dreams’.

“There’s a feeling of being able to tell stories that broaden our humanity and our understanding of ourselves and one another,” she raved. “And when entertainment is done right, it has the ability to open minds and hearts and literally change the course of the world.”

Tracee points out that ‘there is research suggesting that culture drives policy.’
