Kelly Rowland To Play Donna Summer?
A photo that singer Kelly Rowland posted to Instagram recently has tongues wagging that she might be up to play Donna Summer in an upcoming biopic. The Root has the story:
Rumors are circulating that former Destiny’s Child member Kelly Rowland is vying for the role of Donna Summer in the Spike Lee-directed film Spinning Gold. The biopic chronicles the life of Casablanca Records founder Neil Bogart, whose talents took him from being a poor kid from Brooklyn, N.Y., to launching the career of Summer, as well as those of Kiss, Joan Jett and the Village People. Pop singer Justin Timberlake will take on the role of Bogart.
Rowland, who is pregnant with her first child, posted an Instagram photo reminiscent of Summer’s 1970s look. Rowland captioned the photo: #tbt #DonnaSummer-ish #LovetoLoveYa.
Well, it’s pretty clear that Rowland has Summers’ looks down but do you think she’s ready to play the late Disco diva? let us know.
