Funny story: Patti LaBelle auditioned for The Muse that Lillias got and she said she thought she nailed the audition and said "then I went home and I heard Nothin' honey". 😂😂

I see why she was the leader of the sistas i know someone just like her who comes from a Catholic church and she didn't know much about gospel songs until she came to an all black church and that's where she found her very sassy high soprano soulful voice now she's more in love and very much comfortable with her sweet sensational voice so yes she can most definitely testify to this because she's a witness to what happens when ya go gospel fr fr

I can see him being resistant. It's probably one of the last genres you'd think of when you think of Greek mythology...despite both being odes to gods. Let's all be thankful that he had ultimately had an open mind!

@@kevontewilliams3818 because that would be too many characters to take care of and it would've gotten confusing for the audience, since the muses play a bigger part in the film like for example ariel's 6 sisters. Or the titans (only cyclops really gets some attention) and the gods on olympus (we see a bunch, but we only ever hear Zeus, Hades, Hera and Hermes talk).
