It’s terrible. [Laughs] I think the last one I read was the entire Diver- gent series. [Laughs] KW: The music maven Heather Covington ques- tion: What was the last song you listened to? ZK: I recent to Erykah Badu’s “Mama’s Gun.” That whole album. KW: What is your favorite dish to cook? ZK: Squash and quinoa and kale and salmon. KW: The Uduak Oduok question: Who is your favorite clothes designer? ZK: I don’t know. I always say Alexander Wang RESEARCH ANALYST it.” I’d have to think about it. The Oregon Employment Department has an opening for a permanent, Research Analyst 2, (Quarterly Census of Employment and Wages Analyst), in the Salem Cen- tral Office. Bilingual applicants are encouraged to apply. KW: The Ling-Ju Yen question: What is your earli- est childhood memory? ZK: I remember playing at my grandmothers’ houses when I was about 4 or 5. KW: The Melissa Harris- Perry question: How did your first big heartbreak impact who you are as a person? ZK: I think it probably just taught me that you will always heal. That this too shall pass. The first time you feel that sort of pain, you think it’s never going to go away. Once you do sur- vive it, you realize you can survive anything. Still from the film Mad Max: Fury Road time you had a good laugh? ZK: Earlier today. I like to laugh a lot. KW: What was your first job? ZK: I never had a real job. I started acting in high school, and then I started working. So, I never got to have that experience. KW: The Tasha Smith It’s all about not questioning what everyone else is thinking, since they’re probably looking to others to know what is or isn’t cool because he’s one of my dearest friends and he’s the one I’m most familiar with. I don’t know a lot about designers’ names. KW: If you could have one wish instantly granted, what would that be for? ZK: It sounds like a silly pageant answer, but world peace. KW: That’s not silly at all, since this is a time when it’s really needed. Harriet also asks: With so many classic films being redone, is there a remake you’d like to star in? ZK: Ooh! That’s a hard question, because I believe “If it ain’t broke, don’t fix KW: The Viola Davis question: What’s the biggest difference between who you are at home as opposed to the person we see on the red carpet? ZK: Well, at home, I’m in sweatpants, I’m not wearing any makeup, and I’m not standing with my hand on my hip while smiling. [Laughs] I try to be honest in interviews, but obviously you have to be careful about everything you say and do when you’re being record- ed. I’m much more comfortable and quieter at home. KW: The Teri Emerson question: When was the last question: Are you ever afraid? ZK: All the time. KW: The Anthony Ander- son question: If you could have a superpower, which one would you choose? ZK: Flight! 100%! Flight! KW: What advice do you have for anyone who wants to follow in your footsteps? ZK: Be confident, and just do it. It’s all about not questioning what everyone else is thinking, since they’re probably looking to others to know what is or isn’t cool. KW: Attorney Bernadette Beekman asks: Do you have a favorite charity? ZK: No, not one favorite, I’ve worked with a few dif- ferent charities, including one in Africa dealing with the AIDS epidemic. I also like helping people who need food. KW: The Judyth Piazza question: What key quality do you believe all success- ful people share? ZK: Being genuine. KW: The Tavis Smiley question: How do you want to be remembered? ZK: Again, as genuine. I think the best that you can do is stay true to who you are, whatever that is.
