Big moves are being made, and Tracee Ellis Ross and Anthony Anderson just got a major upgrade! Deets inside, plus Kerry Washington seeing red at the ABC Upfronts and Teyana Taylor gearing up for "Honey 4"...
Tracee and Anthony had every reason to be all smiles Tuesday at the ABC Upfronts in NYC. It was announced that their hit show "blackish" is moving to Tuesday nights! And it's getting a time boost to 9p from its original 9:30 slot.
It's a tricky move to shift a popular show to a whole different night and time, but Tuesdays have less competition, and The Johnsons now get to anchor their own night. Woot!
The on screen #CoupleGoals of a duo had some fun on the carpet.
The comedy will be followed by the new Daveed Diggs-exec produced comedy series, "The Mayor," at 9:30p. David formerly starred in Hamilton on Broadway and currently stars as Rainbow's (played by Tracee) brother on "Blackish."
Tracee looked perfect as usual in a cherry Ryan Roche cut-out dress, matching Louboutin shoes and a matching Edie Parker clutch. Only she could make monochromatic look this un-boring.
Kerry Washington was also there to rep for the "Scandal" cast. The ABC Chief confirmed the show will end with season 7, as previous reported, but it seems Kerry is totally at peace with that:
The fab mom of 2 rocked a red hot & pink Fausto Puglisi dual color dress, Sophia Webster shoes and a clutch from Proenza Schouler. As for the wig, maybe she was in a hurry....
In other tv/movie news, that Honey 4 movie Teyana Taylor posted the script from is currently shooting. The hard bodied dancer is taking her skills to the screen alongside "Empire" stars Bryshere Y. Gray and Sierra McClain.
The fourth installment of the movie (that started with Jessica Alba) is set in Atlanta's underground dance scene. It will debut in 2018 and is being directed by Billie Woodruff. Not sure who asked for this umpteenth sequel, but we'll be watching it on Netflix or whatever since we can't resist a blackbuster film.
