Well, I'm not even sure if destiny has a color, but purple would be pretty wouldn't it? Anyway, word on the City Streetz is Michelle Williams from Destiny's Child has been hired to play Shug Avery in the Broadway hit "The Color Purple." Michelle is due to hit the stage in Chicago around mid- March and is excited about her new role. " This is just a dream come true. I could not pass up the opportunity to do The Color Purple. To have the privilege of even auditioning was an honor for me".
As you all know Michelle is religious and sings gospel. Now, not sure if you guys ever caught on to this but Shug Avery is a Bi-sexual woman. Do you all remember when Shug and Whoopi (Celie) started joking around in Celie's room and then they began kissing each other? Well they continue to kiss as the camera moves away and then fades into the next scene. (Scene shown to your left) Next time you watch the movie read between those lines. Of course this wasnt something they put a lot of stress on, but Shug and Celie did get it on! Now with that being said I wonder if this scene is in the Broadway hit. I doubt it, but if so I wonder how Michelle would take to having to do a scene like this.
Either way I think Michelle Williams has been blessed with this opportunity and she better rock it!!
