“I just love it here. It's a place of joy for me,” she explained. “The culture has gotten kind of dark a lot of places in the country and every time I was working on a movie here, and all the music here, and every time I’d get on the plane to go back home, I’d say, why am I so happy here, and I realized it's because it's a culture of kindness here…I felt loved here and received and respected.”
