Many YBF actors like Samuel L. Jackson and Halle Berry have been inspired by Denzel Washington's recent Broadway performance. Now they are considering acting in their own Broadway plays.

All this plus a Russell Simmons reality show when you read on...

Denzel Washington just finished up his Broadway performance of "Fences". This play broke box-office records and made nearly $3 mill.

So now YBF stars like Halle Berry, Samuel L.Jackson, and even Will and Jada are considering acting on Broadway.

Halle Berry is signing up for "The Mountaintop", a drama about the great Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., that Samuel L. Jackson will also star in.

Will and Jada are considering portraying Stanley and Stella Kowalski in "A Streetcar Named Desire".  The Smith's have a history at Broadway.  They co-produced a play called, "Fela" and were cheering for Denzel on his opening night. The FAB couple even went to the Tony Awards.

Speaking of "Fela", Patti LaBelle will be playing the role of the mother this September. Aretha Franklin was interested in the part but noticed that the mother sings a song at the top of a ladder and said, "I'm not climbing that ladder every night!". 

Oh Aretha....

Would you go see these stars on Broadway??

And in reality tv news.... 

Russell Simmons 'accidentally' interrupted a short film screening in New York while shooting his new Oxygen reality series ' Running Russell Simmons'. Witnesses say he barged into the screening with a camera crew, lighting equipment, and even a Kimora look alike. 

Those in the movie had no idea what was going on and a producer yelled, "Russell, wrong place!"

One attendee said, "Never mind that the guy dates similar-looking women. It's 90 degrees out. How is he wearing a sweater?"

Couldn't have said it better....
