Bull! She's NOT RIGHT FOR THE ROLE. PERIOD!!!!! AND SHE DOES NOT LOOK ANYTHING LIKE MIRIAM. Wishful thinking Kerry - you don't even have the sensibility of the culture, language, manner - NOTHING!!!!! Stay American and don't try to be what you can NEVER be - a graceful African woman nurtured on the soil, heart and culture of her homeland. Ther's nothing wrong with you - you're beautiful, BUT YOU ARE NOT BEAUTIFUL MIRIAM MAKEBA AND WILL NEVER BE MISTAKEN BY ANY SENSIBLE PERSON AS SUCH!
OMG I swear, I was watching some videos of Miriam just the other night and I swear I said that Kerry Washington looks just like a young Miriam Makeba. They should definitely make a movie. It would be soooooo Awesome ; )
with all due respect, I absolutely love Kerry Washington but I hope with all my heart that the story of Miriam Makeba be played by a South African. I know for a fact that that was Miriam Makeba's wish. may her wish be so. there's no way that Kerry could sing qonqotwane, umqokozo or baxabene oxamu like a south african could, and there is enough talent in that country to carry out the job.
