Ms. Nia Long, not looking a day over 30 is gracing the cover of Essence Magazine’s April edition. She is discussing her new movie The Single Moms Club and life after 40.

I also told him that life has highs and lows, wins and losses. Just as I was saying all this, the phone rang. It was my agent with the good news. We did the happy dance and started packing our bags…”—Nia Long, ESSENCE
