‘I Want My F**cking Money!’ – Taraji P. Henson Talks What Women Really Want As She Covers In Style Magazine

Taraji P. Henson is on the cover of InStyle Magazine’s January 2019 issue being as fierce and  fearless as ever.

For the issue, the 48-year-old who stars in soon-to-be-released movie, ‘What Men Want’ speaks on what women really want and it just might be the most sassy and on-point speech you’ll listen to today.

See photos and read excerpts from her interview below.

“I’ve always been the funny girl,” Henson says emphatically. “Not that I was pigeonholed. They were all great dramatic roles, but I’ve been dying. I just felt so honored and grateful to get a comedy where I could let it all hang out. My best friend was like, ‘Lord, they don’t know what they have unleashed.”

.“I was like the Punky Brewster of the hood, I was a well-rounded kid, but I could also scrap if necessary. But I wasn’t that hard. I still had Strawberry Shortcake wallpaper in my room, and my friend Tracie and I were doing Shakespeare in the Park … and we were in the f—ing hood.” – Henson’s says with a laugh as she speaks with InStyle magazine.

On the topic of representation, she says:

“I don’t care if you’re young or old or what color you are, art is so powerful, You can show things to people you’ve never met and you broaden horizons. I don’t take for granted what I have, and I try to use it in any way I can, positively.”
