Teddy P and Marvin Gaye

u know that i just love music and movies! my whole life pretty much revolves around a song. I am so fired up - the rights to the marvin gaye story have finally been sold!!! The same cat that did trading places (the 80's eddie murphy movie - a fellow negro) owns the rights and is putting on the production. They are in the process of developing the script, etc.etc.etc...

The script for the teddy p story (which is not a tell all book about his life) is done and moving on. It is a reflection of his life and struggles and handling/maintaining the up and downs. they are having a big event for him in june in his home town philidelphia. i read his book "truly blessed" a while ago and it was really interesting...now i have to go there for a minute, one it is no one buisness and is glossed over inthe book about the allegeded blow job that caused his auto mobile accidents back in the day. in my opinoin it really to bad that a lil head brought such devastation. it changed my life - LOL - AND THE LESSON IS DONT LET PASSENGERS GET DOWN LIKE DAT WHILE DRIVING AND I HAVE A MUCH SMALLER CAR NOW-A-DAYS - LOL now that could be the problem cars use to be the size of king size beds on the inside back inthe day - he strecthed out and got to comfortable, cruise control and.......... anyway!

Then of course the James Brown movie is pending it will be done before he is buried properly.
i absolutly love these icons and cant wait to see thier movies (hoping they are done well!) THEY ALL BETTER BE GOOD!!!

robert townsend is in chicago - working a movie, if my asss had stayed in cold and snowy chicago, i would be working with him again...(dammit, i deleted the email withthe name of it) but its okay everything happens for a reason...AND SEGWAY!

my book is almost finished and i am almost feeling good about the whole experince. i'd love to GIVE everyone a copy but uh, that would kinda defeat the purpose! i really hope somebody enjoys it and learns something about their own soul in reading the story of ms tangy the psycho-baby!

2008 is going to be a big year for black movies and hopefully for me!
