News of the singer/actress’ filming was confirmed via footage from the Disney+ movie’s social media accounts.<br />
<br /> <br />
<br /> <em>Rodgers & Hammerstein’s Cinderella</em> was released in 1997 and featured Brandy in the title role, Paolo Montalban as Prince Charming, the iconic Whitney Houston as the fairy godmother, and Whoopi Goldberg. Houston also executive produced the project.<br />
<br /> <br />
<br /> Footage from <em>Descendants</em> showed Brandy as the new queen, opposite Montalban’s now-king. Per <em><a href="https://variety.com/2023/tv/news/brandy-cinderella-return-first-look-disney-plus-movie-1235561589/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Variety</a>,</em> which confirmed Brandy’s involvement in November, the film puts the king and queen’s daughter (played by Mia Baker) and the Queen of Hearts’ daughter (played by Kylie Cantrall) on an adventure to save their home—the kingdom of Auradon.</p> <p>The film, which was originally called <em>The Pocketwatch,</em> is the fourth in the <em>Descendants</em> series. The project first premiered on the Disney Channel in 2015 and brought in 6 million viewers. The franchise then released entries in 2017 and 2019.<br />
<br /> <br />
<br /> The musical, which is written by Dan Frey and Russell Sommer, will also star Rita Ora as the tyrannical Queen of Hearts, who is said to rule her province with an iron fist.<br />
<br /> <br />
<br /> Reprisals of some of Disney’s most notorious villains will include China Anne McClain as Uma, daughter of sea witch Ursula; Dara Reneé as Ursula’s sister Ulyana; and Joshua Colley as Hook.<br />
<br /> <br />
<br /> In her original 1997 role, Brandy became the first Black Disney princess in a live-action version of the classic story. As Cinderella, Brandy donned micro-braids (her signature hairstyle of the ’90s). This time she’s wearing an ice-blue long-pontytail with her crown.</p> <section class="suitcase-ad" /> <p>The Jennifer Phang-directed <em>Descendants: Rise of Red</em> hasn’t gotten a release date yet.</p> </div> <p><br /> <br /><a href="https://www.complex.com/pop-culture/brandy-reprising-cinderella-first-look-descendants-disney-plus">Source link </a></p> <p> <a rel="follow" href="http://megatheme.ir/" title="قالب وردپرس">قالب وردپرس</a></p> ]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>https://freshestfm.com/heres-the-first-look-at-brandy-reprising-history-making-cinderella-role/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> <item> <title>Ray J Shows Off New Leg Tattoo Featuring His Sister Brandy’s Face</title> <link>https://freshestfm.com/ray-j-shows-off-new-leg-tattoo-featuring-his-sister-brandys-face/</link> <comments>https://freshestfm.com/ray-j-shows-off-new-leg-tattoo-featuring-his-sister-brandys-face/#respond</comments> <dc:creator><![CDATA[SOURCE]]></dc:creator> <pubDate>Wed, 06 Jul 2022 02:18:38 +0000</pubDate> <category><![CDATA[brandy]]></category> <category><![CDATA[dfp-music]]></category> <category><![CDATA[dfp-music-other]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Featured]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Music]]></category> <category><![CDATA[News]]></category> <category><![CDATA[ray-j]]></category> <category><![CDATA[rnb]]></category> <category><![CDATA[sibling]]></category> <category><![CDATA[tattoo-artists]]></category> <category><![CDATA[tattoos]]></category> <category><![CDATA[tier-one]]></category> <guid isPermaLink="false">https://freshestfm.com/ray-j-shows-off-new-leg-tattoo-featuring-his-sister-brandys-face/</guid> <description><![CDATA[Ray J has never shied away from professing his love for his older sister Brandy.

The tattoo, which Ray J had inked on his leg, features a portrait of Brandy’s face with “Best Friends” written across her forehead and “4 Ever” on her cheeks.</p> <p>The clip, which was soundtracked with his sister’s 1995 hit “Best Friend,” features tattoo artist Mashkow inking the singer’s right thigh. Ray J captioned the post by revealing plans to get his entire leg tatted with things such as “family,” “music,” “positive words and themes,” “scriptures,” and “ghosts,” among other things.</p> <p>It sounds like Brandy supports the ink, as she commented, “Brooooooo” alongside a series of heart emojis.</p> <p>It isn’t the first time Ray J has paid tribute to his sister with a tattoo. Back in 2021, it was revealed that Ray J had Brandy’s name <a target="_blank" href="https://atlantablackstar.com/2021/10/03/tat-my-name-on-you-so-i-know-its-real-brandy-responds-to-ray-j-getting-her-name-tattooed-on-him/" rel="noopener">tatted</a> on his arm, with the ink noticeably inspired by the font used on the cover of Brandy’s 1994 self-titled debut album.</p> <p>At the time, Brandy appeared to be pleased with her brother’s tribute, as she took to her Instagram Stories to <a target="_blank" href="https://www.vladtv.com/article/276248/ray-j-trends-after-getting-large-brandy-tattoo-for-sister-on-his-arm" rel="noopener">post</a> a screenshot of his ink, writing, “This is real love.

He was then offered a hint from Laura Stylez, who noted that Brandy “starred in a TV show.” This didn’t spur an answer, so Peter Rosenberg chimed in with a hint of his own.</p> <p>“Her brother is the reason why a lot of people are famous, you could argue,” Rosenberg said, with Ebro Darden adding that “her brother had an amazing sex tape.” After a few more seconds, Harlow presented the hosts with a question.</p> <p>“Who’s Ray J’s sister?” Harlow, 24, said. Once informed the song playing was indeed a Brandy track, Harlow expressed surprise.</p> <p>“Brandy and Ray J are siblings? Nobody’s ever told me that in my life,” he said before closing out with a joke about the hosts having landed “a good clip” due to the segment.</p> <p>Tuesday, Brandy herself responded to a clip of the moment shared by the Brandy Legion fan account.</p> <section class="suitcase-ad" /> <p>“I will murk this dude in rap at 43 on his own beats and then sing is ass to sleep,” she said in a tweet, as seen below.</p> <p>The purpose of recent Harlow’s Hot 97 appearance was the release of his sophomore album <em>Come Home the Kids Miss You</em>.

After going through a gauntlet of old school rock and R&B tracks, many of which stumped him, it was this answer towards the end of the segment that was truly hilarious.</p> <p>“Brandy and Ray J are siblings? Nobody has ever told me that in my life,” Harlow said with a laugh. “Y’all got a good clip out of that one.”</p> <p>Harlow’s lack of knowledge about classic R&B aside, the Louisville rapper utilizes a lot of it in his latest album. The project opens with a Destiny’s Child sample, and throughout the album, Pharrell’s touch and Drake’s influence can be heard. <em>Come Home The Kids Miss You </em>is <a href="https://www.complex.com/music/first-week-projections-bad-bunny-un-verano-sin-ti-jack-harlow-come-home-the-kids-miss-you" target="_self" rel="noopener">slated</a> to have a big first week and also featured appearances from Justin Timberlake and Lil Wayne.</p> <section class="suitcase-ad" /> <p>Watch the hilarious clip from Harlow’s visit on <em>Ebro in the Morning </em>up top.</p> </div> <p><br /> <br /><a href="https://www.complex.com/music/watch-jack-harlow-find-out-brandy-ray-j-are-siblings">Source link </a></p> <p> <a rel="follow" href="http://megatheme.ir/" title="قالب وردپرس">قالب وردپرس</a></p> ]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>https://freshestfm.com/jack-harlow-discovers-that-brandy-and-ray-j-are-siblings-during-music-quiz/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> <item> <title>Brandy Sued by Ex-Housekeeper Who Claims She Was Fired Over Her Age</title> <link>https://freshestfm.com/brandy-sued-by-ex-housekeeper-who-claims-she-was-fired-over-her-age/</link> <comments>https://freshestfm.com/brandy-sued-by-ex-housekeeper-who-claims-she-was-fired-over-her-age/#respond</comments> <dc:creator><![CDATA[SOURCE]]></dc:creator> <pubDate>Fri, 25 Mar 2022 02:59:13 +0000</pubDate> <category><![CDATA[ageism]]></category> <category><![CDATA[brandy]]></category> <category><![CDATA[court]]></category> <category><![CDATA[dfp-music]]></category> <category><![CDATA[dfp-music-other]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Featured]]></category> <category><![CDATA[lawsuit]]></category> <category><![CDATA[lawsuits]]></category> <category><![CDATA[money]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Music]]></category> <category><![CDATA[News]]></category> <category><![CDATA[tier-one]]></category> <guid isPermaLink="false">https://freshestfm.com/brandy-sued-by-ex-housekeeper-who-claims-she-was-fired-over-her-age/</guid> <description><![CDATA[TMZ has learned that a lawsuit has been filed against Brandy by her former housekeeper who alleges she was fired in February because of her age.

She claims to be over 60 years old. The housekeeper is seeking $250,000 in damages after allegedly failing to pay for her last two days of work, and never allowing her to take legally required breaks. She allegedly earned $125 per day cleaning up her Calabasas home over the last 20 years. </p> <p>“We disagree and will have further comments after we speak with our lawyers,” a rep for Brandy responded in a statement. </p> <p>Brandy and her stylist Ashley Sean Thomas were <a target="_blank" href="https://www.tmz.com/2022/01/12/brandy-norwood-sued-missing-diamond-ring-amas/" rel="noopener">sued</a> in January by fashion designer Elle B. Mambetov over the alleged disappearance of a $45,000 ring. Mambetov claims Thomas asked her last year about borrowing clothes and jewelry for Brandy’s appearance at the upcoming American Music Awards. </p> <p>Mambetov gave Thomas a few outfits and a Dreamboule Big Bang Diamond Ring, but the latter was never returned. She alleges in court docs that the 18-karat rose gold ring was last seen on a piano in Brandy’s home.</p> <p>Brandy claims she didn’t wear anything from Mambetov to the AMAs, and the above photo taken at the award show may support her argument since the ring in question doesn’t appear to be on her finger. “Brandy never saw the ring and has no knowledge of it ever being in her presence.

But you will see , there will never be another ME.” She then launched into another story, with additional lyrics focusing on trusting someone with her fears, and shared another spoiler for the upcoming album. </p> <p>“I’m excited about this album on another level,” she wrote. “I keep everything inside but not this time!! I’m sharing lyrics but to hear it all is completely different!!!”</p> <p>It’s unclear who Monica is linking with on this current project, but Code Red featured production from <a href="https://www.complex.com/tag/timbaland" target="_self" rel="noopener">Timbaland</a>, Danja, Pop & Oak, Polow Da Don, and more. The record ended up debuting at No. 27 on the Billboard 200, and was supported by lead single “Just Right for Me” featuring Lil Wayne. </p> <section class="suitcase-ad" /> <p>Staying busy since her last full-length, Monica appeared on <a href="https://www.complex.com/music/2020/09/brandy-monica-verzuz-review" target="_self" rel="noopener">Verzuz</a> to go head-to-head with Brandy in the summer of 2020 before debuting single “Trenches” with Lil Baby. The two ended up bringing in 1.2 million viewers on Instagram Live, with everyone from First Lady Michelle Obama, Solange, Tyler, the Creator, and Queen Latifah tuning in to see “The Boy Is Mine” collaborators duke it out with some of their most undeniable hits. </p> </div> <p><br /> <br /><a href="https://www.complex.com/music/monica-lyrics-new-album-7-years">Source link </a></p> <p> <a rel="follow" href="http://megatheme.ir/" title="قالب وردپرس">قالب وردپرس</a></p> ]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>https://freshestfm.com/monica-teases-lyrics-from-first-album-since-2015-yall-keep-asking/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> <item> <title>Celebrities Show Support for Britney Spears After Conservatorship Hearing</title> <link>https://freshestfm.com/celebrities-show-support-for-britney-spears-after-conservatorship-hearing/</link> <comments>https://freshestfm.com/celebrities-show-support-for-britney-spears-after-conservatorship-hearing/#respond</comments> <dc:creator><![CDATA[SOURCE]]></dc:creator> <pubDate>Thu, 24 Jun 2021 04:22:22 +0000</pubDate> <category><![CDATA[brandy]]></category> <category><![CDATA[britney-spears]]></category> <category><![CDATA[court]]></category> <category><![CDATA[dfp-music]]></category> <category><![CDATA[dfp-music-other]]></category> <category><![CDATA[dfp-music-pop]]></category> <category><![CDATA[dfp-politics]]></category> <category><![CDATA[dfp-politics-social]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Featured]]></category> <category><![CDATA[halsey]]></category> <category><![CDATA[justin-timberlake]]></category> <category><![CDATA[khloe-kardashian]]></category> <category><![CDATA[lists]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Music]]></category> <category><![CDATA[News]]></category> <category><![CDATA[news-list]]></category> <category><![CDATA[paginated-news]]></category> <category><![CDATA[rose-mcgowan]]></category> <category><![CDATA[tier-one]]></category> <guid isPermaLink="false">https://freshestfm.com/celebrities-show-support-for-britney-spears-after-conservatorship-hearing/</guid> <description><![CDATA[Some of entertainments biggest stars are rallying behind Britney Spears.

Spears pleaded with the judge to end the guardian oversight, which was first implemented in 2008 following her public breakdown. She told the court the conservatorship has essentially stripped her of personal freedom, as she has no control over her finances, medical decisions, or how she spends time with her boyfriend.</p> <p>One of the most unsettling of the testimony was when Spears claimed she was given lithium against her will, and was unable to expand her family because she was prohibited from removing her IUD.</p> <p>“I would like to get married and have a baby,” Spears said. “But this so-called team won’t let me go to the doctor to take it (the IUD) out because they don’t want me to have children … This conservatorship is doing me way more harm than good. I deserve to have a life.”</p> <p>Shortly after the hearing, many celebrities took to social media to express their support for Spears. Some shared words of encouragement, while others called on the court to terminate the conservatorship, which is led by her father, Jamie Spears. One of the most notable messages came from Spears’ ex-boyfriend, Justin Timberlake, who has <a target="_blank" href="https://www.complex.com/music/justin-timberlake-apologizes-to-britney-spears-janet-jackson" rel="noopener">faced years of criticism</a> over his treatment of Spears following their breakup. </p> <p>“After what we saw today, we should all be supporting Britney at this time. Regardless of our past, good and bad, and no matter how long ago it was… what’s happening to her is just not right,” <a target="_blank" href="https://twitter.com/jtimberlake/status/1407861389301981191?s=20" rel="noopener">he wrote</a>. “No woman should ever be restricted from making decisions about her own body. No one should EVER be held against their will… or ever have to ask permission to access everything they’ve worked so hard for. Jess and I send our love, and our absolute support to Britney during this time. We hope the courts, and her family make this right and let her live however she wants to live.”</p> <p>Other stars who shared supportive messages included Mariah Carey, Brandy, Halsey, Rose McGowan, Khloé Kardashian, and Jameela Jamil.
