Coconut oil is a must for everything. It is fresh from the earth, so it naturally works to moisturize my scalp, skin, hair and even helps to remove eye makeup. It also smells delicious. You can buy it at a beauty store or the grocery store. Jillian Hervey Read Quote
I grew up always wanting to be a dancer, and when I went to New York, I fell in love with the idea of performing in all ways. I saw myself traveling with a company or making my own work and being a little weird. I wasn’t thinking about the business side of anything; I just knew that I loved dancing.

Half of my family is in Los Angeles, so my cousin was the first person to play me, like, Snoop Dogg, and I would always feel like, ‘OMG, I shouldn’t be listening to this,’ and my other cousin was the first to introduce me to Aaliyah, so every time I’d go to the West Coast, I’d get those West Coast vibes.

My friends make me laugh: funny Instagram videos, but mostly people falling over. It’s so bad, but it never gets old. I just love how people cover up their falls. The whole experience of ‘Oh, I just fell, and I’m going to run out of the fall and pretend I did this on purpose.’ I just like to see how people cover up their mishaps. Jillian Hervey Read Quote
