This week, Lena talks to Cree Summer - the beautiful face behind film and TV roles like Freddie Brooks on A Different World, but also the golden voice behind hundreds of animated characters, from Penny on Inspector Gadget to Susie Carmichael on Rugrats. Cree tells Lena about how she overcame the stigma of voice acting to get cast in onscreen roles, the excitement of guest starring on iconic TV shows like Living Single and The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, voicing the first Black Disney princess in Atlantis: The Lost Empire -- and agreeing on the one woman in Hollywood they'd do anything for. Cree is beloved in Hollywood, and beloved by Lena -- and you'll fall in love with her too after hearing this conversation.
