Video Flashback: Effie sings at The Tonys...
Jennifer Holliday created something so special and so classic with her performance of Effie in the original Broadway production of "Dreamgirls" in the early 80s. Her performance of "I'm Telling You, I'm Not Going" at the Tonys is still a wonder to watch.
Enjoy!

I was lucky enough to hear her sing it live for the very first time. They tried out Dreamgirls in Boston and I was in the entertainment press for opening night. The audience was filled with stars and Jennifer Holliday became a star herself that night! I still remember the power of that performance.
