THE COLOR PURPLE talk w/ Fantasia, Halle Bailey, Taraji P Henson,Danielle Brooks, Oprah -11/16/23 4K

[@sheilaadams445]

I as a black woman growing up in the 60s and 70s, I am so proud to see all these legendary talented young people to be a part of this classic production! To God be the Glory!!🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾❤

[@lanerichards5724]

When I went to see the Color Purple for the first time in DC at the Kennedy Center where Fantasia played Cicely, I can't begin to explain that feeling that I had experienced that day. I felt like I was part of the play, it was definitely moving and very touching, it has transpired me to be in touch with my feeling. I love Fantasia I really hope she goes back on Broadway. I can't wait to see the movie, with such an amazing cast, I am sure that this is going to be amazing!!

A PART OF, not APART OF. Exact opposite meaning! Frequent grammar mistake- correction without judgment. Your loved one is A PART OF, not APART OF! Correct anyone selling themselves short! I’m a blessed writer & visionary who had a private audition with Denzel- and I’m working on some heartfelt projects now. I WILL CHANGE THE WORLD. WE ALL CAN CHANGE THE WORLD.

[@naphtalibale5636]

Fantasia is a natural.

[@pamelastaggs2095]

Yes she is! Soooo proud of her how she greeted the producers and the 4 up front! Manners is elegance!❤❤❤

[@jcanthony16]

Love this cast so much! Such a brilliant group of individuals, and they made a phenomenal movie.

[@louveniadavistaylor1056]

TENDERNESS UNLOCKED! HALLELUJAH! GOD WE BLESS YOU AND WE LOVE YOU!

[@louveniadavistaylor1056]

[@sheranealey7787]

I saw it on Broadway and was so emotional throughout..but loved it

[@louveniadavistaylor1056]

WE WORK THROUGH WITH OUR HEART AND SOUL IN IT! WE UNPACK DIFFERENTLY!

[@louveniadavistaylor1056]

WE ALWAYS WELCOME OPRAH AND WHAT SHE BRINGS TO THE TABLE!

[@yolandawebster1039]

The Color Purple has always been one of my favorite movies (and I was called weird at times for that), but I never cared. It was the passion, the story, the brokenness, the healing, the support, the triumph, it was relatable, and so much more. To allow these AMAZING Actors to step into these roles, I am ecstatic. I know I watch The Color Purple at least 3-4 times a year just because you can feel it every time. 💜💜💜 Salute and Congratulations to the cast, Directors, producers and Oprah Winfrey, I don't even know what to say, WE LOVE YOU!! 💜💜💜

[@traceylennon1204]

Why would somebody call you WEIRD for liking The Color Purple?? 🤔 😕

[@andreamiller6323]

Congratulations 🎊 👏 to all cast and producers 🙏🏻🍾🍾🍾🎊🎊🎊

[@louveniadavistaylor1056]

[@louveniadavistaylor1056]

TOGETHER MEANS EVERYTHING TO US!

[@phoebeshentomlinson25]

Congratulations everyone. Oprah you are a pioneer the producer you are dope. Fantasia you already know you been there and done that✅

[@louveniadavistaylor1056]

This expression was so deep in me. Why hurt people...hurt people? What trauma do you feel and explaining it from THE BLACK MAN! She can forgive!

[@bettywright4338]

Awesome awesome is all I can say AWESOME, can't wait to see the opening, such talent on display ❤🎉

[@louveniadavistaylor1056]

THANK YOU SCOTT!

[@henriettacoard9048]

Beautiful, I can't wait to see it.

[@beyondthewallsglobaloutrea4984]

I saw Color Purple today in Grand Blanc MI It was absolutely awesome. I appreciate you Oprah Windrey and every person that was apart of this awesome film

[@Neosoul_prima]

Please don't let whatever BS social media has created around this film... please don't let this flop!!! These people have worked hard! From the writers, to director, to the producers, and most definitely the CAST, and let's not forget ALICE WALKER HERSELF! I can't wait until I have the money to do so! Don't think of it as a remake of the first film, or the musical! Think of it as a way that these people, are telling their stories through the lens of Alice Walker's Genius! Artists in the US don't get enough love, and after not working because of the writers strike, and the SAG strike we have the opportunity to aid in an industry that supports us all!

[@louveniadavistaylor1056]

HEALING WE NEED AT THIS TIME!

[@staciestacie1327]

Oh, this is such a good movie. I forgot that Fantasia can actually sing!!! And T.P.H. was incredible. The whole cast was incredible!!!

[@didyoupeep4546]

This comment stopped me in my tracks. Lol You said you forgot Fantasia can actually sing? what does that even mean, Stacie?

[@sarahb-rh9dd]

Too bad their storyline wasn't consistent🤦🏿‍♀️ of course it was an affair but let's be clear Celie was trapped and the narrative is that shug is bi but I don't believe that especially with that GOODT lovin she got from Celie ain't no turning back from that, that kind of love is one and a life time hopefully there's a pt 2 where we see it really grow over the yrs the ups and downs the way a real relationship consist of

[@sarahb-rh9dd]

​@@didyoupeep4546notta dam thang that right there ain't NOTHING to forget 😂😂😂😂 that's a SANGIN something right there

[@louveniadavistaylor1056]

[@Dikishaki]

[@rhondamcknight2596]

I love what the men have to say. So touching. I love this version. The loving forgiveness between Celie & Albert, Albert & Harpo.

[@mawga18]

The men on the cast are so gracious and thoughtful. They warm my heart🥰.

[@louveniadavistaylor1056]

[@chriskersey1955]

I didn't realize that H.E.R. is in the movie. Gotta SEE IT NOW! Who is Squeak in the movie, tho?🤔

[@diamondprincess9168]

[@vjohnson8339]

[@pamelastaggs2095]

Im waiting for this movie!

[@sarahb-rh9dd]

y'all do not know if that lady is pregnant or not I will not congratulate her until she says it out her mouth PERIODT💯

[@earthisghettorightnow]

Exactly! I don't blame her if she doesn't address it or not, people are too obsessed with her womb.

[@eloiserobinson8212]

I am sooooo tired of you all gossiping about Halle!!! Find something else to gossip about 👍🏽👊🏽

[@highbryd]

Nobody in this comment section mentioned anything about a pregnancy except for YOU. Stop talking about her. You’re so weird

[@sarahb-rh9dd]

​@@earthisghettorightnowyou Betta preach🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿💯

[@FRANKIEROBINSON-vo3fr]

Why does it matter to you @sarahb? I mean don’t you have a prerogative, has anyone ever imposed forcefully on yours? It’s Halle’s prerogative. With all the beauty & the love of God’s presence on that stage, Halle’s pregnancy (or not) is the first thing that you could think of??! 🤔

[@louveniadavistaylor1056]

THE VISION!

[@louveniadavistaylor1056]

WOW THE BEST DAY OF A LIFETIME IS SPECIAL! WHEN IT COMES FROM GOD IT WANT MISS YOU!

[@WhatsBiggin]

I love this Q&A but it is the sounds coming from behind the camera for me!

[@louveniadavistaylor1056]

WE HAVE FLAWS!

[@sarahb-rh9dd]

23:15 YESSSSSS HOW MS TARAJI GOT HER GROOVE BACK BABY I Love It, I love seeing a BLACK woman being open about having a love scene with a woman I don't think I've ever witnessed this a day in my life except Jenn from the l word🙄. I've never heard Taraji speak so beautifully about a scene like that with a man see this exactly what I mean when 2 women are in love or any same gender it's the most deepest beautiful love you'll ever receive omg thank you so much queen Yesssss Beautiful lighting

[@sarahb-rh9dd]

now y'all already know Tasia is in that toxic church and they ain't gon like this one bit and I'm here for it.

[@shaquilleivory2919]

Y’all see how Oprah was throwing shade at Taraji when she said when she was In the first color purple she had a lawyer that said I can get you 50,000 instead of 30,000 they had offered you and she said I said please don’t and she looked at Taraji she sad at smh

[@louveniadavistaylor1056]

IT HURTS!

DOING THE WORK HONORS HER "OPRAH"

[@louveniadavistaylor1056]

A SELFIE!

[@MarvinHicks-dd7qb]

💜💜💜💜💜

[@louveniadavistaylor1056]

HOW DO WE FORGIVE IN AMERICA OF THE HURT?

[@Meme-to6fj]

Like "Gone with the Wind", "The Color Purple" ends and marks the era and errors of our forefathers.💯❤️. Watch 😮good press and the negative press to mark the end of centries of an era of our forefathers errors. Slaves in both races, I salute you black Queens, you are woman who has endure and withstood and created the legacy of the black woman's plight🎉😂😮😅😊💯💯

[@DMS5511]

Is TPN ok? Very little eye contact with the younger cast

[@daritykane7]

Where is Phylicia who played young Celie

[@themoviereportdotcom]

Her interview segment is at 35:26 ; I couldn't get everyone in the same shot most of the time, but you can see her at that point and in Halle's segment right after

[@louveniadavistaylor1056]

LOOK AT WHAT GOD HAS DONE!

[@louveniadavistaylor1056]

MISTER! WHY WOULD YOU DO THIS?

[@Sjblock89]

So why wasn’t Whoopi a part of Fantasia? 😲

[@MarvinHicks-dd7qb]

💎💎💎💎💎

[@IamtheLadyofthehouseMsJoy]

So what if she is pregnant. People need to mind their own business. Congratulations Halle🎉

[@Mone333Williams]

And she is ❤

[@MonquieBK]

It’s looks like a great cast …Idk I just think 💭 some classics you should leave alone they messed up a few classics movies

[@DanielleAtkins-t7x]

What happened 2 mentioning the Tyler Perry movies n the pay she received that she was well worth😊

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

[@imdavis1270]

Oprah looks fantastic & ran up the stairs.

[@louveniadavistaylor1056]

The coal is still burning!

[@kisha4040]

Why make a remake out of this movie?

[@sarahb-rh9dd]

Y'all must not like Chicago or Hairspray or Idlewild either huh

[@Thismeekpotato]

I mean people maybe dont realize its not a remake its musical adaptation.

[@bia411]

Why not? It's a musical with amazing talent.

[@theodoredooley4693]

Oprah Feet looks extra 😅

[@sarahb-rh9dd]

Of course those are the only feet y'all can focus on up there🙄 girl bye imagine the dogs the men got foh

[@eastwood1026]

Coleman had the best speech until he said he was a feminist. That just diminished his character as a black man because by him saying that means he wouldn’t have been accepted by said black women on set unless he bowed down to them without the feelings being reciprocated
