You almost broke up my parents\u2019 marriage. [My mother] loved Army Wives.<\/p>\n<p>\n&#8220;I thought, &#8216;If [Sterling] comes up here and ruins 47 years of marriage, I\u2019m going to be upset.&#8217; &#8220;<\/p>\n<p>\nSterling noted: &#8220;I\u2019m big with a certain set. The older Black women and me, we got a thing.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\nThe 49-year-old actor caused a stir with a shower scene in his latest drama series Paradise, and Sterling admitted it makes him &#8220;happy&#8221; to know people find him attractive as he approaches 50.<\/p>\n<p>\nHe said: &#8220;I\u2019m 49 years old, and the fact that anybody wants to see 49-year-old booty, it makes me happy.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\nThe American Fiction star views his career as a type of &#8220;controlled schizophrenia&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>\nHe explained: &#8220;I look at this acting thing as sort of controlled schizophrenia, in that there\u2019s so many people inside of me, and each character gives me an opportunity to let one aspect of myself out. &#8220;<\/p>\n<p>\nSterling thinks the TV industry has changed hugely since the early days of his career, as a lot of production has moved outside of Los Angeles, and series are substantially shorter.<\/p>\n<p>\nHe said: &#8220;I remind myself that the industry is just 100 years old. When I first started, there was a thing called pilot season. There was many a network drama. There was many a serialised. There were 22 to 24 episodes. Now we\u2019re doing six or eight. <\/p>\n<p>\n&#8220;And so much has left Los Angeles. <\/p>\n<p>\n&#8220;I was just working in Australia, and there were seven other productions living in my hotel.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\nNatasha agreed: &#8220;There was a game show shooting near us in Thailand.<\/p>\n<p>\n &#8220;There\u2019s a little bit of \u201cMolly, you in danger, girl\u201d about it all.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><!-- Pagination --><\/p>\n<p><!-- playbuzz --><br \/>\n<!-- end playbuzz--><\/p>\n<p><!-- \n\n<div data-cn-project=\"femalefirst\">\n    \n<\/div>\n\n --><\/p>\n<p><!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><br \/>\n<!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><\/p>\n<p>    <!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><br \/>\n    <!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.femalefirst.co.uk\/celebrity\/older-black-women-got-thing-sterling-brown-knows-fanbase-1420153.html?f=rss\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>9 June 2025 Sterling K.
