    These two brilliant women have something in common:
    Cynthia Erivo, after winning the Tony Award for Best Leading Actress in a Musical for her performance as Celie in THE COLOR PURPLE- a role she played for two years- she was snubbed for the film adaptation. She even won a Grammy for the cast album and an Emmy for a television performance of “I’m Here.” And now she's changing the world with her embodiment of Elphaba.
    Julie Andrews was the original Eliza Doolittle in MY FAIR LADY on Broadway but was also snubbed for this film, as the team instead cast Audrey Hepburn (who couldn't sing the role and had to be dubbed). If she had been cast as Eliza, she wouldn't have been available for MARY POPPINS, and who knows if we would've ever gotten Maria Von Trapp without Mary Poppins.
    The two biggest movie musical stars in history were told "no" by people who wouldn’t or couldn’t see their greatness. Keep going.

I think the fact that she was able to be a force in music and the civil rights movement in spite of the scandal about her father that her family wanted to hide, makes Aretha an even more heroic person. Erivo's performance was powerful and unapologetic.
