This is wrong on soo many levels. Her live performances of just one song are weak as 3-day old coffee. disbelief

Leave the girl alone. She needs a job, let her have it. It's not like it's Solange.

I SO wanted to do this remake years ago when L-Boogie was legally sane. She woulda made the best Dorothy.

They passed up two Broadway veterans, one who's already WON a Tony, for THIS trick??? faint

This quote alone lets you know them nuccas on rocks. disbelief

We think Ashanti is great for this role! She’s been very successful as both an musician and an actress, and this combines her two loves. whofarted

Let's be fair, Bboy, maybe they figured they could use her excess hair to make a Toto and save on having to get a real dog. They is a recession goings on. lol

I've noticed lately people using the word "musician" way too loosely. lol

I was actually a fan of hers after hearing her first album, but then I saw this performance on the MTV VMAs (her first I think):
