The only time I ever saw her in a film was her cameo in "The Blues Brothers". She was the lead choir singer.

I heard about this on the local news around the release of "Funk This" (and I think it was mentioned when she appeared on The Tavis Smiley Show not too long ago).

[ "I went and saw it honey, it aint no joke," Khan shared during a phone interview with The BV Newswire. "Fantasia kicked ass. I'm so glad I dont got to play her part. I tell you. If they wouldve asked me to do her part, I would've said 'Hell to the naw." Absolutely not. I am not a workhorse, I am not doing that shit every night." :: AOL Black Voices ]

I've seen the Broadway version twice -- once with the original cast (LaChanze), and this past summer with Fantasia. Both were great productions. So I think I'm going to see it again in '08 and get rush tickets.
