We caught up with Mikki to see if she could spill any behind the scenes tea. Here’s what she had to say…
Hey Mikki, can you give us a behind the scenes moment while working on the set of “Girls Trip”?
Let me tell you…the hair and makeup trailer was ROCKIN! (Laughing) I was sitting next to Queen Latifah getting my makeup done and the old school jam “Shoop” came on by Salt N Pepa. I started rapping the lyrics because I love that song. Queen heard me and was like “Aweeeee shoot” and she jumped in and started rapping the lyrics, too. Then, everybody else got in and it was just hilarious and fun. (Laughing) It was one FABULOUS day!!!
Created Equal
Also, I have a film coming out this Fall called “Created Equal” where I play a character named “Betty”….she is the Administrative Assistant to “Tommy Reilly” played by actor Aaron Tveit. It is directed by the legendary actor/director Mr. Bill Duke, Starring Aaron Tveit, Edy Ganem, and Lou Diamond Phillips. Please look out for it sometime this Fall.
