Description

This week, Lena is talking to the mother of Black Hollywood herself -- the one and only Jenifer Lewis, star of screen and stage. Of course the conversation has to start with the Broadway production of Dreamgirls, where Jenifer originated the role of Effie that was ultimately taken over by Jennifer Holliday, but the two hit all the highlights of Jenifer's incredible career, from A Different World to Black-ish to her unforgettable performance as Tina Turner's mother in What's Love Got To Do With It. There is singing, there is impersonation, there is laughter, there are behind-the-scenes tidbits involving Tupac Shakur and Whitney Houston -- it's a can't-miss conversation.
