Also sometimes in her face she looked more hurt than angry or like she was trying to control those expressions. Maybe that's why she came across as being so extra. I think the fact that she isn't always in the public eye has allowed for her to hold on to certain idiosyncracies and to have a harder time controlling them than if she were say, an actor who is trained to hide certain things that would betray their true feelings. Just a thought.

Wow, you've really thought this through!
No, but I agree...and I don't think she was being immature, I think she was being real. I saw the Tavis Smiley interview and I loved how blunt she was and how she wore her heart on her sleeve. It allowed for people to know that even 'strong, black woman, who supposely has it all together' can get hurt. I think a lot of people have grown from her acknowledgement of hurt. Everyone has a story to tell and I am glad she didn't but on a false face to tell hers.
