Tevin Campbell update

Tevin Campbell, who just celebrated his 29th birthday last month, has joined the cast of Broadway’s “Hairspray.”

The “Can We Talk” singer will take over the role of Seaweed J. Stubbs. It's current star Chester Gregory II is scheduled to leave the hit musical on Dec. 11.

Campbell, whose acting experiences can be counted on one hand (an episode of “The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air,” a guest spot on “Moesha” and a singing role in Prince’s “Graffiti Bridge”) is expected to begin performances on Dec. 13, according to a production spokesperson.

He was also on a show called the Valentines with Siedah Garrett and Tatyana Ali


I have the orginal broadway recording of Hairspray and I cannot imagine his voice fitting in for the character of Seaweed

I think he still is but I'm not sure. I think he was going to produce his next album, just like the last.

I love Tevin's voice.

He did have a great voice. It's a shame that he dropped off the way that he did. I hope he rocks it on Broadway.
I'm not a fan of "old Prince". I'm not a fan of "new Prince". I'm just a fan of Prince. Simple as that

Did anyone catch Tevin on Jay Leno (?) back in the day. It was when he was going through puberty and he was supposed to hit a high note. He opened his mouth and nothing came out. I think that I was more upset about it then he was. He was very professional and continue with the song.

Yes, Tevin did a great job with "O Holy Night".

I've been listening to his version a lot also!
