Toni Braxton is back in front of the camera lens, but this time for a much better cause, and project. The ’90s R&B singer stars in a forthcoming interactive musical film for children titled “The Oogieloves in The Big Balloon Adventure.”
Speaking of the interactive movie, Braxton says her character takes pieces of how real divas act — in a good way.
“My character is absolutely wonderful. She is all of the singers in the business. From myself to Gladys Knight to Mariah and J. Lo… little parodies on how us divas act,” says Braxton.
