‘Color Purple’: Taraji P. Henson on ADVICE She Gave Fantasia & Danielle Brooks (Exclusive)

[@schayes1979]

Taraji is a sweetheart...I worked in the Movie What Men Want which she Starred in and she made it a point to acknowledge everyone daily on the set from the background actors to the janitors! I so love and respect her for that because I lived in "HollyWeird" and many of the folks are so fake and the so call Divas think it's only about them! Thanks for being genuine and nice Taraji💕👏🏾🙏🏾💯

[@Yumyumhoneybun]

I worked with Taraji on the set of empire sometimes she was nice and sometimes she wasn’t.

[@debracarter1942]

Love Taraji sharing wisdom.

[@complexdit.s]

⁠@@Yumyumhoneybunhappens with the general population everyday. sometimes im nice and sometimes im not. what exempts her from human condition? that’s the problem with holding celebs to a higher regard than the rest.

[@sheliasmith3653]

Ppl make so call celebrities inhuman because they have money I think it's Sad to separate ppl by class and money

[@schayes1979]

@complexdit.s exactly we all have those days...not nice all the time...we all go through this thing called Life!

[@koolaid1982]

🤔THE FACT TARAJI SAID SHE HAD TO CHECK HER EGO WAS INSPIRATIONAL AND IT SHOWED LOTS OF RESPECT FOR THE PEOPLE PRIOR TO HER REACHING THAT GOAL

[@sharleneedwards7210]

I ❤ this sisterhood. Taraji being a great big sis by ensuring the ladies don't make business mistakes. Sisters upholding each other👏🏿🙏🏿💕

[@supertenor561]

not only business mistakes, she also help Fantasia thru the acting process. I've seen another interview in which Fantasia revealed she couldn't turn off the role in the past when she was in the live play. Taraji would make jokes inbetween cuts to allow for balance and provide guidance when she could. The best actors literally embody the heart/essence of a character when playing the role and that can be hard on a person depending on the character being played especially when a person's mental is in a sensitive state in their personal lives. I so look forward to seeing the movie on Christmas day!!!

Oprah was going to bless all of them trust me! It may not be in the spotlight but it was coming. Thats what I think

[@keeshamarie2889]

[@DeeLo90.]

I love this, You can feel the support and love between these ladies.

[@sonteeluv6343]

Taraji P. Henson is such a remarkable person. She has a pure heart and she is always willing to help others. She is always an inspiration to others and she strives hard to make her dreams come true. She is truly a role model. I love the way she holds the sisterhood down. She is such a strong, independent, and courageous woman. She is a great example of how to never give up and to keep going no matter what obstacle is in the way. She is an inspiration to many. For instance, she recently opened her own production company, TPH Entertainment, to give women of color an opportunity to share their stories and to be represented in the entertainment industry.

Taraji been at it for years and she is a role model to many including those she worked with in the Color Purple….Go head TARAJI and show them how it’s done!! She’s the BEST!! 🔥🔥🔥

[@kaya9901]

The original Colour Purple is one of my favourite movies of all time and I have seen it so many times that I’ve lost count. I’m not a fan of remaking the classics but after watching the cast do their rounds, hearing their journey and hearing them speaks such beautiful words to each other I’m going to give it a watch.

[@tonyadavis4330]

I went to see the color purple at a premiere Saturday OMG you are in for a treat! Tarajl did her thing! All of them did!

[@videogirlzzzzzz]

Danielle is a sweetheart! I met her backstage after the “piano lesson”. She was so sweet and kind. I knew her parents, so they hooked up the backstage event for my husband and I. She took pictures with us, and was just so humble. We did not stay long, because I did not want to take up a lot of her time. I’m so happy for her.
