Carmen Ejogo is all about the bath. The Selma star was interviewed by Oprah Winfrey for Violet Grey's The Violet Files, and she opened up about how much she loves to relax in the tub (and a few other things of course).
"I've had as many as maybe three, maybe four baths in a day. Is that really excessive?" she asked Winfrey, adding, "I've got the lavender essential oils and the whole routine down at this point." (We wonder how Naya Rivera feels about this?)
The British actress, who plays Dr. Martin Luther King's wife Coretta Scott King opposite David Oyelowo in the Oscar-nominated film, also opened up about how her perception of beauty has changed over time.
"It means something different than it did when I was fifteen and aware that how I looked had power," she shared. "Now it's more about character and having something to say. When I see those things in someone, I find that very attractive, particularly in women."
And her viewpoint has also shaped the roles she chooses. "It's important for me to set an example for my daughter so I actively try to stay away from projects or situations that make me too hung up on the exterior," she explained. "To be honest that's always been a criteria for choosing work, avoiding the vanity trap."
