I think it's amazing that Lena named her production company after the fictional college in A Different World. It was such a legendary sitcom that represented the culture.
Can we talk about Lena's prep? There is no shame in her game. This interview was wonderful. It truly felt like a conversation of friends who truly know each other. And Lena just left room for Sheryl to be the incredible Sheryl.
I can’t stop watching Queen Ms Sheryl Lee Ralph. She’s such a graceful queen. Wheeew. 🌻🌻🌻🌻 and Lena? Just keep going don’t ever stop! You’re the perfect NORTH STAR.
I just followed this Podcast. I have not even finished watching this interview but I already know, from Lena's interview style, that she is going to ask the relevant questions. And from the title of her podcast, I already know that Black Excellence is going to show up! Let's support this podcast. Peace and blessings!
I was not expecting this combination but I clicked so fast once it was suggested to me. Sheryl is a full queen. Really good to know somebody that knows somebody, connection is important. She was speaking full aunty gems.
Ms. Lena. This is a WONDERFUL show. So inspiring. I had the honor of working with Anna Maria Horsford on a small project and I hope you have her on one day. Another legend who I am sure would have interesting, motivating things to share.
What a great interview! I love hearing about these amazing stories from the legendary Sheryl Lee Ralph. I grew up on this woman, going all the way back to the series _It’s A Living_ When she won her Emmy, I broke down crying. We gotta give our legendary black artists their flowers while they’re still alive. Sheryl also has a good reputation for showing up to Howard University graduation ceremonies to celebrate a the graduates. Congrats on launching this site-down podcast. The set is so warm and calming. You’re a great interviewer Lena 🤗
I enjoyed this interview. There is ease and trust in this exchange and it comes through in the questions and answers. I'm always intrigued by the intangibles, the tangents and details that paint the true picture of an experience. The remark about Ms Ralph adjusting her skillset for the medium (theatre, film and television) the craft elements only an experienced actor can really talk about. I love her definition of a great actress, it starts with you. There are actors who act like characters and there are actors who are characters. Ms Ralph is a part of so many pivotal shifts in entertainment. The Dream Girls full circle moment is coming.
Thank you for going through the “FIRE” Mrs. Ralph, you always remind me to keep going!! Mentioning Rosalind Cash was the cherry on top. These “LEGACY TALKS” are necessary, thank you Lena!
This was SUCH a beautiful interview! I love and admire Sheryl Lee Ralph and this interview made me in awe of her just that much more! Blessings to you both. ❤
I literally just made a post on my Facebook that the Black LGBTQ+ Community needs to protect Lena Waithe at all costs! She is A Cultural National Treasure!!! This, on this platform, is purely Genius and absolutely NECESSARY. 💯🙌🏾🫶🏾
NO Y'ALL NEED TO BE PROTECTING US, AND STANDING UP FOR US AS SHE DOES. BLACKS NEEDS TO STAND WITH BLACKS EVERYONE NEEDS TO STAND EACH OTHER BLACK WHITE GREEN PURPLE WE'RE ALL HUMAN WE ALL DESERVE RESPECT
I got a chance to meet Ms Sheryl on my very first night in NEW YORK.....KIND...GRACIOUS... AND EVEN MORE BEAUTIFUL IN PERSON.... Before they even did the film version of DREAMGIRLS I asked her who would she like to play Deena if they made the film.....I'll keep that a secret because Beyonce understood the assignment....but if it wasn't Beyonce this young lady DEFINITELY would have been incredible
Lena and Sherly brought some powerful energy to this conversation! I can feel the excitement from your messages, and it’s awesome to see how great a storyteller and a theatrical touch Sherly brings to her storytelling, and that made the discussion! 🫶🏾
Shout out to Lena! These conversations are so full!! These are the conversations we want and need from our legends and artist!
Mrs. Sheryl Lee Ralph is timeless ❤ gorgeous so much wisdom my goodness 😊
I agree 💯❣️

Sheryl so animated, but loving and so genuinely gracious 🖤🥹
She got it honest. Her father was the same way. He helped me with a project at work. I absolutely loved him.

❤️❤️❤️❤️
So The Words I Spoke Was True
To Sleep with Angry is such a great movie. Sooo Black!
👏👏
❤❤❤
🫶🫶
🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
What's crazy is Whitney Houston told Lauryn Hill the same thing about "that band." 😅
Sure did.
😊
Wait. Sheryl Lee Ralph could’ve been Alberta on Ghosts?
Beyoncé was not the right choice for Dina. Now every Dreamgirls after the movie is gonna cast a light skin or ambiguous woman in the role.
I have a great time watching this you know, good job white
