Ms Fierce was on Oprah discussing a scene that involved lots of curse words and she said she was hesitant and didn't think she was ready for such a gritty part. But her mom encouraged her and said, no you're ready girl. b, 21b, 21How long??b, 21

b, 21b, 21This is good casting. b, 21b, 21h, 21b, 21b, 21Unless you've seen Tim McIntyre in 'American Hot Wax'.... b, 21b, 21h, 21b, 21b, 21I saw that in the theatre and I just downloaded and watched it from hereb, 21http://www.cultrararevideos.com/forgottenflixa.htmlb, 21b, 21I still think he would be a good Alan Freed!
There was a thread about this a while ago and a few different names came up, don't remeber them all. Pickwick33 had a good suggestion - looks-wise anyway. She was a former Am Idol contestant I believe...
It was probably Fantasia- Yeah she would be a fair choice. She has some serious feeling that is for sure. Didn't mean to be redundant. I must have missed that thread.
No it wasn't her - I would remember her. Someone from a few seasons back - maybe not even a winner? Pickwick will have to refresh - Fantasia doesn't resemble James really, this other gal came closer.b, 21b, 21Please. You'd have to be on this thing 24/7 to see every thread and get every alias, etc.
#1: I can't be mad that they made a film about Chess (unless it sucks).b, 21b, 21#2: Who's playing Monk Higgins img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" 21?

b, 21b, 21Kimberley Locke? Lookswise maybe sorta, but the grit? I dunno...
Seriously, "At Last" will straight up MURDER 99.9% of singers out there, least of all someone like Beyonce who simply doesn't remotely have the pipes to pull it off. b, 21b, 21Latifah could probably sing a better version but still-not-a-great-cover.
