First President, then RNC, now Disney. It's a good year for black people :)
Anika Noni Rose from "Dream Girls" will be the voice of Princess Tiana in Disney's animated musical "The Princess and the Frog." Not only will this be Disney's first black princess, but also Disney's first American princess.
The story: Prince Naveen of Maldonia, voiced by Bruno Campos, is transformed into a frog by an evil Voodoo magician. Prince Naveen asks Princess Tiana to break the spell by kissing him. (What, no dinner first?!) However, Princess Tiana turns into a frog too. So the two of them have to travel far far away to find the good Voodoo priestess to reverse the spell. Of course, they meet some really cool friends along the way and end happily ever after.
