ANTHONY
IS UNSTOPPABLE
MADE BY ASHLEY WHITE
La La Anthony’s career has blossomed
in a way that’s truly incredible to watch. After
making the decision to take acting seriously, the
New York native put in the work necessary and
it shows.
From Think Like A Man to Power, La La has
proven there’s nothing she can’t do and she’s
just getting started. As her acting career is
taking off, La La has a makeup line, production
company and has launched her second clothing
line with Lord & Taylor, The La La Anthony
Collection. “I love clothing and I would always
have women ask me about my clothes and how
to dress or where did I get my jeans from. I just
saw a void in the marketplace for amazing jeans
for women of all sizes. I partnered up with Lord
& Taylor and what’s been great about the
partnership is that we go from size 0 to 24,
which I’m super proud of.”
Additionally, she’s a 2x New York Times
Best-selling author with her first book, The
Love Playbook in the works of becoming a
movie in a partnership with Queen Latifah.
While she has a lot on her plate, her most
important job is being a mother to her 11-year-
old son, Kiyan.
“He comes first and then it’s my job so it’s
about managing my time with his schedule and
making sure I’m there for all his stuff and just
being a mom and also making sure I’m getting
my work done as well.” MADE caught up with
the multi-passionate entrepreneur to see how
she does it all and her insight on creating a
career you love…
