Seen Vanessa Simmons on the reality show “Run’s House” and on “One Life to Live” and want to see more of the daughter of hip hop mogul? Starting January 31st, you will get your chance via “The Actor’s Rap” the hip hop play in J. Kyle Manzay’s parody about rappers-turned actors.
Vanessa will be making her off-Broadway debut alongside many radio personalities Michael Shawn (Hot 97 Morning Show), Déjà vu (Power 105.1), and Ann Tripp (WBLS The Steve Harvey Morning Show).
Vanessa chose her words carefully when giving her view on the play and about the whole rappers-turning-to-actors controversy:
“I think that it’s good that people are giving rappers the opportunity to be film stars, but at the same time I feel that because of a name, real hard working actors miss out on great parts where they know they can deliver.”
