@studioqtv: #greenscreen Whitney Houston didn’t just play the Fairy Godmother in Rodgers & Hammerstein’s Cinderella — she helped make the whole thing happen. As an executive producer, Whitney helped bring this groundbreaking version to television and personally chose Brandy to play Cinderella, giving millions of viewers a Black princess at the center of a major network fairy tale. More than 60 million people watched, the film earned seven Emmy nominations, and decades later we’re still talking about its impact. Whitney was a singer, actress, producer, trailblazer, and somebody who understood how to use her success to open doors for somebody else. That’s why this moment will always mean more than just a movie to me. 💜
