'Fun Home,' 'The Curious Incident of The Dog in The Night Time' and 'The King and I' were among the big winners at last night's Tony Awards, taking home prizes for the best theatre in New York. The first of those plays, which won the night's "big" big award for Best Musical, was the first in the history of the show to win that prize and be written entirely by women. Jeanine Tesori and Lisa Kron wrote the hit, which focuses on a daughter and an in-the-closet father dealing with their homosexuality, also focusing on the funeral home they run. -
Faith Evans Planning Notorious B.I.G. Duets Album [WATCH]
Faith Evans recently revealed that she is planning a duets album featuring her late husband, The Notorious B.I.G., aka Christopher Wallace. The pair last hooked up on the 2005 posthumous "The Final Chapter." Evans told HipHollywood that the project was inspired by Natalie Cole and Nat King Cole's 1991 effort "Unforgettable." It is tentatively titled "The King and I." "It's something I've been thinking about doing for many, many years," the singer told HipHollywood. "So I finally got all my ducks in a row to try and make it happen." As for what the album would contain, Evans offered this: "It is definitely unheard music. Unheard music in the presentation of it. That's what I will say." The project is still in its infancy, so there is not much to go on, but Evans does not specifically say there will be previously unreleased verses by Biggie on the album. If it is going to be in the same vein as "Unforgettable," then there will probably be edited remixes of Biggie tunes with Evans accompanying on vocals. "I'm just getting into actually working on it," she added. "It's going to be really, really dope." Fans can expect to hear some music from the project within the next year. -
