Dreamgirl Anika Noni Rose is grateful to gay audience....

| | Comments (0) |

d21.jpgJennifer won the Oscar, Beyonce was already the star but Anika Noni Rose managed to carve out her own special moments in "Dreamgirls." The Tony winner (for 'Caroline, or Change') has a key role in the upcoming miniseries "The Starter Wife" starring Debra Messing and Judy Davis. She has a cool interview in the new issue of Instinct magazine and I am sharing with you a few tidbits:
On Dreamgirls being a gay man's movie: "Yes, it's YOUR musical. [laughs]. It was important that gay men accept it because they're the group that made it happen, that made it stay around. Gay men are the fans that kept Dreamgirls alive...I have never, ever been in a theater with as many gay men as I was at the New York premiere and with people who were so ready to love something. It was really wonderful to sit there and have all those fans of Dreamgirls excited and thrilled and take part in what was being done."

He's considered a bit odd by some for his obsession with box office numbers, has been known to camp out near the kitchen at premieres for first crack at the hors d'oeurves, and Greg's never seen a red carpet he didn't want to stroll down.
