ASHANTI TO STAR IN WIZ


Ashanti will ease on down the road to her first theater role this summer in a New York-staged revival of "The Wiz. The Grammy winner will star as Dorothy in the African American version of L. Frank Baum's "The Wizard of Oz," which begins in June as part of the "Encores!
Summer Stars" series at New York City Center.

Ashanti also played Dorothy in the made-for-television movie “The Muppets’ Wizard of Oz.” City Center’s production of “The Wiz” will be directed by Thomas Kail and choreographed by Andy Blankenbuehler with music direction by Alex Lacamoire, who previously collaborated on “In the Heights.” The musical, with book by William F. Brown and music and lyrics by Charlie Smalls, is scheduled to run from June 12 through July 5.

The Wiz is a family favorite! I will definitely be flying out to see her debut!

Derek Fisher has Stalker and had to get a RESTRAINING
ORDER!

Derek Fisher, the starting point guard of the Los Angeles Lakers must be doing his thing to the ladies! It must be so go that chicks are stalking, changing identities and being served restraining orders. Born: Aug 9, 1974, Height: 6'1", Weight: 210 lbs. College: Arkansas-Little Rock, 3 NBA Championship rings from 2001, 2002 and 2003!

Derek says he needs a restraining order put in place against a woman he says has been stalking him for years. His request was granted. Fisher and his legal team say the woman, Symone Fisher, 40, has gone so far as to legally change her last name to Fisher. Sit down Who**! Your a Cougar, Claim it and work it! Or get used to being DENIED, It's 2009 and out of all men you change your name to Fisher bwwaaaaahhh not a good look at all :(

Mrs. Symone Fisher stay 1000 feet away from the Staples Center so Derek can stay focused on bringing that ring back home to Los Angeles!
