#TSRWhereTheyAtNow: We know ya’ll remember seeing Ashley Monique Clark on your screens over the years. We literally watched her grow up on camera as she appeared on shows such as “The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air,” “Moesha,” “Sunset Beach,” and of course she starred as Sydney Hughley on the sitcom “The Hughleys” alongside, D.L. Hughley.
However, her roles didn’t stop there, and she also starred in the 2003 box office hit “Love Don’t Cost A Thing.”
Years later, and Ashley is still acting and working towards her dream roles. We caught up with Ashley to see what was it like growing up as a child actor in the industry, some of her fondest memories, and what we can expect from her next.

When asked what was her most memorable role and why, she said, “My memorable role would have to be Sydney Hughley. The reason I always picked Sydney is because, honestly I spent so much time as Sydney. I grew up as Sydney, and it was really fun. The character that I played was so much like myself growing up.”
Ashley also revealed to us that there were some struggles she faced transitioning from a child actress to an adult actress. One of the main struggles being that many people didn’t want her to grow up when it came to the roles that she played, and often she wanted to play roles that were close to her age in real life.
Nonetheless, she is still acting in projects and revealed that one of her dream roles would be for her to play a superhero, and she has another project dropping real soon.
