She would never go to bed without washing her face.

  • First Role

Brenda's first job ever was a commercial for a Little Caesars Pizza while she was four or five years old.

  • Star-struck moment

The only time she has ever been truly was when she met Kobe Bryant, as she was a huge fan of the Lakers
