That Mahalia Jackson biopic with Fantasia Barrino to be directed by Sugar Cane Alley director Euzhan Palcy is now pretty iffy if it ever gets made and those behind the scenes are blaming Barrino.

So if you missed our fantastic show yesterday, you get to check it out now. For this show, we tossed it up a bit inviting emerging film industry insiders Ashley and Patrice making it an all ladies night! We spent a good portion of the show having real GROWN FOLKS talk about the industry. So what did you miss?-We discussed the cancellation of The Playboy Club and why it didn't work-We touched on "the casting couch" regarding black women-Which black actresses can/will reach "A" list status and Is Hollywood afraid of the black vagina?-Isaiah Washington's remarks regarding his past snub of black publications due to the advice of his agent/management team
