In March 2014, I landed my first interview with a phenomenal black actress. Best known for her role as Hazel on the tv teen show Degrassi, it was an honor to interview Andrea Lewis. As a teenager, Degrassi was one of my favorite shows growing up. I would watch it religiously every week. And so the fact that I got this opportunity for my blog made it all worthwhile.
How did I get an interview with Andrea Lewis from Degrassi?
One day while on Twitter, I reached out to her. Not thinking she would respond to my tweet, I was apprehensive. But to my amazement, she answered my tweet, and the rest is history.
She’s pretty and sounds like a very lovely person inside and out. Thank you for sharing this cool interview.
Wow! This reiterates the fact that we should not self-reject! Well done!
I loved degrassi growing up! So cool you got to meet and talk with her
