Michelle Williams, Ludacris, and Audra McDonald land new acting gigs



Michelle Williams has landed a new job.  The "Heart 2 Yours" singer is playing a lead role in David E. Talbert's play "What My Husband Doesn't Know." She and the cast  have been rolling since February.  And she takes the stage in Baton Rouge for the 2-day run of the production there on March 22nd and March 23rd.

 Her sexy co-stars are Morris Chestnut and  Brian White.  Destiny's former "Child" has previously starred in the West End production of CHICAGO, and the national tour of THE COLOR PURPLE.  A few pics from the show:




Alright then Michelle.




Ludacris has a new movie role as well.  The rapper joins a long list of high-profile celebs in Garry Marshall's New Year's Eve film.  Luda will be playing an NYPD cop working during the Times Square celebration. He will co-star with Halle Berry, Sofia Vergara, Hilary Swank, Sarah Jessica Parker Ashton Kutcher, Lea Michelle and Robert De Niro.  He's also starring in this summer's Fast Five movie.

 

And four-time Tony Award winner Audra McDonald will return to the stage as Bess in "Porgy And Bess" at the American Repertory Theater this September.  She's set to leave her starring role on ABC's "Private Practice" and this must be why.

"I'm looking forward to it. I feel like I'm old enough," said Audra in a recent interview.  The actress will leave her current gig on the show this spring.  Damn...I was REALLY hoping she and Taye Diggs/Sam would get back together.  No likey this Sam and Addison ish....
