That’s some good casting! Janelle is a great dancer and they do have a good resemblance!
And they’re both from Missouri
i feel like Tamera Mowry would be a great choice her and tia grew up singing and dancing as well
Can’t wait for the TV show, I remember doing a presentation about Josephine Baker for history class during Black History Month and I loved her so much :)
Ugh, pls do one of your longer videos about Josephine! She is a personal hero of mine and there are far more than just 6 amazing facts about her!!!
What a woman 👑
I wrote my English IV term paper on her back in high school and loved the autobio pic movie from the 90s
Wow total badass!
❤❤❤Josephine is one of the biggest stars EVER❤❤
So excited for the tv show, I hope it'll also be available in Germany 😍 btw there's a great documentary on German/French tv station arte available to watch for free online. Not sure how international access works though. And for anyone in western Germany, there's currently an amazing, comprehensive exposition at Bundeskunsthalle in Bonn all about her.
Beautiful inside and outside 😊
Strong women!!!! 😊
The book about her life is very inspirational ❤
Josephine Baket was the GOAT!!! I've love this amazing woman since I first heard her singing when I was a kid in the early 80s...She was so ahead of her time and she deserves to be a household name for her talent and all she stood for❤❤❤❤
Badass of history
I found a clip from one of her French films, just so I could hear her singing voice. Her voice was so beautiful. I recommend looking it up.
I’m literally doing a project about her right now
Whoa... thanks for that info!
Banana dance 😎
❤
She sure had IT
Looking forward to the series! History is full of iconic people, from all walks of life. I'm so tired of the lazy race/gender swapping, this is the type of actual representation I want to see!

Maya would be a great artist to represent Josephine...
I wish Ruth Negga played her in a film. That would be more believable.
Came here from Spider-Man 2. Cool fact I learnt today
Spider-Man 2 brought me here

Tyler stole from her and said she wrote song n make up her dance ! Yeah Right !
Doja cat looks like her before she shaved her head
Thats betty boop isnt it?
No. Esther Jones was the "real Betty Boop". Not Josephine Baker.
She's not black - she's of mix race...
Same as Luther...
They should let Cardi B play her
she was also queer 🏳️🌈
no she wasn’t slow. 🤦🏽♀️
She kinda looks scary
