Empire’s Cookie Lyon – Taraji P Henson is the cover star of Iris Covet Book‘s latest issue and she looks smoking hot.

In her interview, the award-winning actress talks about her personal experiences playing formidable roles for women of color, executing death-defying stunts and uniting women in entertainment. She also talked about growing up with her sisters and described her mother as one of her five sisters.

She said, “My mother was one of my five sisters, so I grew up watching sisterhood. I’m real tight with all my cousins. We never snitched on each other. We got in trouble together, and we all went down together. We learned that from our mothers, watching them and how close they are. So, of course, I’m going to be like that with other women. I don’t understand hating another woman. We go through so much as women. Why am I, another woman, going to add to the stresses that women already have? Why would I do that?”

“I’ve always been a big supporter of women even before I got into the industry. I just think overall that needs to be the narrative. Not just in the country, but in the world, because art imitates life. If we’re are artists then we need to be setting examples. That is how I was raised, that is what I know.”

She went on: “Whatever your dream is, don’t let anyone deter you. Keep focused on your bigger picture, stay in your lane, do not compare yourself, put in the work, do unto others as you would have them do unto you, and don’t take no shit!”
