You may think that Sheryl Lee Ralph earned a legion of devoted fans
and the title of Ultimate Diva by being a star of Broadway, film,
and television, but Sheryl Lee believes a Diva is something far
more special.
- A Diva loves the woman she sees in the mirror.
- A Diva owns her talent and her strength.
- A Diva knows the first step on the road to fame is respecting
herself.
SHERYL LEE RALPH'S superstar performance as the original Deena in
Broadway's groundbreaking musical Dreamgirls didn't happen
overnight. First came a grueling Hollywood apprenticeship, where
roles for young black women at the time were often offensive and
demeaning. Sheryl Lee, however, held stubbornly to the values of
her mother and grandmother: she wouldn't take any part she couldn't
be proud of. Even after joining Dreamgirls--where she helped create
a role that grew from her own life story--she would invest years of
sweat and tears before the play finally opened to instant acclaim.
In these highly personal reflections, Sheryl Lee Ralph reveals her
take on her supposed feuds with Diana Ross and Jennifer Holliday,
on auditioning for Sidney Poitier, on why she exited so
controversially from the TV series Moesha, and how she signed away
her rights to Dreamgirls for a dollar. She uses her life story to
illustrate her vision: black, white, or any other color of the
rainbow, a true Diva is a person of strength, character, and a
beauty that radiates from within. Not just a memoir, Redefining
Diva will inspire every woman (and man) who reads it to examine the
potential in their own life.
