June 24th, 2008 by Christine Horn (Your Favorite Tall Black Actress)

Greetings,As you know, I’ve been touring with Disney’s “ The Lion King” since 2006. The tour I was on closed on March 3rd. I’ve been enjoying my time back home in Atlanta, working on music and acting. As I was prepping for my welcome back party this Wednesday, I got a phone call that made my dreams come true…I MADE IT TO BROADWAY!!!

Ever since I was little, all I ever wanted to do was sing and act. My mother Valerie took me to see all kinds of shows and put me in dance classes. Never forced…I loved every minute of it. I was always an “artistic type”…maybe because I’m a Sagittarius…maybe because I grew up an only child for 15 years and constantly talked to myself…who knows. LOLTo make a long story short, I’ve re-joined my “Lion King” family in New York City on Broadway. I’m filling in for a cast member on medical leave. Though this is a temporary arrangement…I’m proud to say I MADE IT! If I died tomorrow, please know that I lived a FULL life and fought long and hard for my dreams. FREE SHOW IN ATLANTA THIS WEDNESDAY, June 25thVisit http://www.chocolatesuperstar.com/ for details if you forgot…Do me a favor…take two minutes out of your busy schedule today and think about your dreams. What was it that you said you ALWAYS wanted to do? Are you close to doing it? Never let your FEAR stop you. Stop listening to those folks who say you can’t do it, because they speak from their own FEAR. Regardless of what ANYBODY says, dreams DO come true.Until next time…

Stay inspired,Christine Horn
