Faith Evans, Nicci Gilbert, Syleena Johnson, Monifah and Keke Wyatt will star as the “R&B Divas” on TV One and are promising no fighting, drink-throwing or bickering. Instead, “R&B Divas” will attempt to keep viewers entertained in a classy fashion by telling the stories of the women as they work on their careers and deal with family life.
The series is eight episodes long and will show the divas not only working on their individual singing careers but working as a quintet on a Whitney Houston charity album. ” ‘R&B Divas’ was created to help instigate balance. We are mothers, wives [and] positive women first,” says Nicci Gilbert about the show.” ‘R&B Divas’ will prove beyond a reasonable doubt that we can captivate an audience without hurting them.”
“R&B Divas” premieres Aug. 20 on TV One following an episode of “Unsung.”
