TV Land’s favorite Soulful duo teamed up to bring the POWER for BE Magazine‘s upcoming power issue. Both Cedric “The Entertainer” & Niecy Nash not only exude soul, they’ve managed to BEcome two of Black Hollywood’s most respected and highly regarded actors/comedians, truly showcasing the power of soul. Congrats on their cover!
Niecy Nash on her most POWERFUL role:
“I’d have to say that it was when I played Raineesha Williams on Reno 911. I actually created that role & it fit the reality of a lot of women in my life. There’s a Raineesha in everybody’s family & I was able to live that out for them…you tell me that’s not power.”
Cedric “The Entertainer” on the POWER of knowing great people like Steve Harvey:
“Steve & I met early in my career & it was just one of those kind of chances when he was non-Hollywood. I was stuck in Dallas & didn’t have any money, & Steve was out there doing a comedy night. I went by just to say hi, & it just so happened that his headliner was bombing. Steve was like look, I’m going to let you go up and do 5 minutes & I killed it. He was like come back each night & if this guy bombs, I’m going to call you up each night. I don;t normally wish bad things on comedians, but I went to this show each night putting the hex on this dude so I could go up…”
