Earlier it was reported that Lil Mama had been cast for the roll of Lisa Left-eye Lopez in the upcoming VH1 TLC Biopic, but now the rest of th group has been cast and Keke Palmer will be playing the role of Chilli. Palmer who was a life long fan of TLC says she grew up often believing she was the fourth member of TLC like so many other girls. Now miss Palmer get’s the opportunity to officially be part of the group. To round out the group Drew Sidora has been cast as T-Boz. The filming begins next month in Atlanta, and I don’t know anybody who didn’t like TLC in their hay day, so I’m expecting this Biopic to be a smash. Hit the jump for more.

Guess Who Richard Pryor’s Widow Is Hoping To Play Her Late Husband In A Movie
A new film about jazz legend Nina Simone is in the works, and the character of Richard Pryor will have an appearance in it.

Jennifer Pryor was so touched by the gesture, she’s now strongly considering him to play Richard in an entire biopic about him! Have any guesses as to who? I’ll tell you who it’s definitely not…Eddie Murphy! Says Jennifer, “Having Eddie Murphy play Richard Pryor would be like having Al Jolson play Malcolm X.” (Jolson is a white actor from way back when, known for performing in blackface.)
