I’m sure the world will go crazy for Oprah Winfrey’s big screen production showcasing the life of singer Lena Horne. The movie has been a long time coming and has transitioned from a tv movie to a big screen production. Janet Jackson was initially cast for the role, but Horne personally asked her to remove herself from the project after the Super Bowl wardrobe mishap. Well according to pagesix.com, the big O has nabbed a new leading lady…Alicia Keys! This is definitely a good look for Alicia as she has had a couple small acting roles, and to be hand selected by Oprah can never be a bad thing for your pockets; and peep the resemblance. Do it BIG Alicia!!!
