Taraji P. Henson has been my spirit animal ever since I saw her in Baby Boy years ago. Fierce, strong, resilient, funny, and beautiful to boot — I mean how could you not be obsessed with her? So of course I had no other choice but to freak out when I saw her getting in my favorite elevator!!!!

Seeing as how the previews for her new movie No Good Deed are terrifying, I felt it my duty to protect her in this little elevator (much to no avail). However, once I finally convinced her I wasn't like the character her co-star Idris Elba plays in the movie, she opened up. We chatted all about the crazy fight scenes in the movie, her taste in leading men, and even poked a little fun at Idris himself. Taraji was an absolute dream come true, I just think she'll be taking the stairs from now on!
