The trailer for "Sparkle" has finally been released by Sony. The promo contains clips of Whitney Houston's final career move before her unfortunate passing this February.

Nicki Minaj Acting in "Stuck on Broke" (The Lost Scenes) [VIDEO]

youtube link
Not sure if this is her film debut, but she was in a performing arts high school so I'm sure this is not her first time acting.
The Indie-film STUCK ON BROKE starring OJ Da Juiceman & produced by Atlanta's College Park Films originally slated Nicki Minaj in the role of Veronica, she was unable to complete her role, due to scheduling conflicts and had to be replaced. Shimone Woodbury (Army Wives) stepped in and did a wonderful job. This video shows small excerpts of Nicki's clips from the film. "We recognized Nicki's talent early unfortunately it didn't workout." Stuck On Broke was filmed in April of 2009.

AUDIO: T.I. Thanks Fans for Making "Takers" #1 at Box Office

I had also read last night that "The Last Exorcism" grabbed the top spot, but the predictions turned out to be incorrect so congrats to the "Takers" crew for taking #1.
MTV:
While early estimates had "The Last Exorcism" edging out "Takers" at the box office this weekend, T.I. says not so fast. According to a recalculated tally on BoxOfficeMojo.com, his heist film, also starring Idris Elba and Chris Brown, came out on top, grossing $20.5 million vs. the horror movie's $20.3 million.
"It was so tight, they kinda misinformed people prematurely and gave out the wrong information," Tip said about the initial numbers. "But officially, as it stands right now, 'Takers' is the #1 movie in the country, contrary to popular belief. In my heart, I felt it would be.
"Its kinda like the Obama election," Tip continued. "Not at all as important, but you felt like it was supposed to happen ... unless it was some bullsh-- in the game, it would likely happen. I'm not in any way trying to compare the magnitude of importance [of the presidential election] to this [box-office] situation, but I'm just trying to somewhat rate my anticipation. Thanks to everyone that supported. Critics were very quick to sign up and criticize the film. I appreciate the people for showing up and judging for themselves. And tweeting and putting out the word of mouth that this really was a good film."
Tip did more than his share to promote the film this weekend. On Friday, he was in Atlanta treating his hometown fans to the flick, and then he headed to the Midwest on Sunday to do the same.
"All weekend I been out," he said. "If I went and the line was packed, I bought all the tickets. Everybody inside who had already bought the tickets, I bought the concessions — popcorn, candy, slushees, sodas. I did that in Atlanta on Friday and Saturday. Sunday, I was in Mount Pleasant [Michigan] with [Ludacris for a concert]. ... I went before the concert and took pictures and signed autographs for everyone who bought tickets. And after the show, I went in after the movie theater had closed. They remained open so they could show the film, man. At 11:30 or 11:55. That allowed us to have two more sold-out shows. I appreciate all the people who supported. It was really the energy. The energy surrounding the project was unmatched. "
