Dreamgirls

I was reading in Entertainment Magazine that Dreamgirls will be coming out soon.  It features an all-star cast, but does not include Miss Jennifer Holliday, who made herself a star on Broadway with her rendition of "And I'm Telling You."

I wasn't familiar with the show, but was the song, thanks to my friend Jeff--Jeff, of course, is Gay.  We frequently spoke of secretly being big black women in our souls which are as musical as all the music ever created combined, profoundly soulful and totally unappreciated for the genius of us--we just neither of us have any actual musical talent.  One night we decided to lip sync as the fabulous Miss Holliday to determine who, in fact, was the ultimate diva--Jeff won, hands down.  Cocktails, were of course, involved--damn, I should have known never to try and one-up a Gay man in a Diva contest.   I guess I got that going for me.
