Regina Hall (born December 12, 1970) is an American film and television actress and comedienne known for her lead role of Brenda Meeks in four of the five ''Scary Movie'' films, Candace in ''Think Like a Man'' and its sequel ''Think Like a Man Too'' and as Corretta Lipp in the FOX comedy-drama ''Ally McBeal''. ==Personal life== Hall was born on December 12, 1970 in Washington, D.C.,〔 the daughter of a contractor father, Odie Hall, and a teacher mother, Ruby.〔(Regina Hall Biography (1971-) )〕〔http://www.abilitymagazine.com/regina-hall.html〕 She graduated from New York University in 1997 with a Master's degree in Journalism.〔 〕 She wanted a career with impact and envisioned "the life" of a scribe. Her first semester changed drastically when her father died. "It was sudden. And I think when sudden events that are painful happen in your life, you know, they redirect your course," Hall reflected. "When you’re young, you don’t grasp the gravity of life. But when you lose someone and you’re young, you do. And so I think that started me thinking about what I really wanted to do in life. And I know my father would have wanted me to finish school. So I did that." She began a career in the entertainment industry, starting off with a guest appearance on Sadat X's 1996 album ''Wild Cowboys'' on the track, "The Interview". Around 2004, Hall’s mother was diagnosed with scleroderma, a rare autoimmune disease. Therefore, when not working in Hollywood, Hall can be found volunteering for the care of senior citizens at a Sherman Oaks, CA convalescent home twice a week as well as raising public awareness for the disease. "When my mom was diagnosed, I didn’t know much about the condition. But Dana Delany, who is an actress and now a friend of mine, put me in touch with Bob Saget. Bob had made a television movie about scleroderma years ago because his sister had died from it. That was back when they didn’t even know what it was. Anyway, Bob had a group called the Scleroderma Research Foundation, so I donated to that and my mother even went to the doctor Bob had suggested, who happened to be over at Johns Hopkins."〔(Regina Hall Interview ) "Regina Hall Issue", ABILITY Magazine, April/May 2010〕 At age 40, Hall unsuccessfully tried to become a nun after a bad break-up. Hall had previously wanted to become a nun at the age of 14. She was refused for being too old, as the cut off age is 39 and for having too many sexual partners. In 2014, she signed as an ambassador for Elizabeth Taylor’s White Diamonds. Hall has also voiced her admiration for Taylor. "I love Elizabeth Taylor. The reason I always was such a fan, I read her New York Times Best seller. She was one of the people who I felt equally possessed the same amount of talent as she did beauty. Her work that she did throughout her entire career–I watched her on "General Hospital" what I always loved about her was that she was elegant. Whenever I do red carpet looks one of the things that I like is to always make sure that there’s a sense of elegance and class. And I felt like she always exuded that." 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Regina Hall (born December 12, 1970) is an American film and television actress and comedienne known for her lead role of Brenda Meeks in four of the five ''Scary Movie'' films, Candace in ''Think Like a Man'' and its sequel ''Think Like a Man Too'' and as Corretta Lipp in the FOX comedy-drama ''Ally McBeal''.==Personal life==Hall was born on December 12, 1970 in Washington, D.C.,the daughter of a contractor father, Odie Hall, and a teacher mother, Ruby.(Regina Hall Biography (1971-) )http://www.abilitymagazine.com/regina-hall.html She graduated from New York University in 1997 with a Master's degree in Journalism.
