Random Ridiculousness: Lark Voorhies Playing Whitney Houston in Biopic

Posted by Bossip Staff

Ghostface Killa Lark Voorhies is rumored to play Whitney Houston in a future biopic. According to sources at Arista Records, Lark has been in private talks with Clive Davis to portray Whitney Houston in an upcoming bio-flick about Whitney’s life.  The film which has been confirmed to start shooting in 2010 will be released in 2011 and hit theaters in August.  The reason for choosing Lark is because of the strong similarities between her and Whitney along with Lark’s great abilities to sing and act. Casting auditions are still being held to find a younger Whitney and a pre-teen Whitney for the film.

We could see a lot of other actresses who could do a much better job that we’d rather watch on a big screen for two hours. But we guess if Beyonce can play a heroin addict, Lark can play a crackhead.

    WHO’S GONNA PLAY BOBBY?

  3. charlotte

    I think Ciara would’ve been great for the part but whatever

  4. RAWRR

    I think Lark could play very convincing Whitney Houston.

  5. I'm Just Me- HAPPY HUMP DAY!!! GET IT Y'ALL!!!

    I like her. Glad she is getting some work. She never took off like I thought she would. I mean I could see a VERY SLIGHT resemblence. Would like to see how good of an actress she really is.


  6. LISA TURTLE Can still get it!!!!


  7. I think Kimberly Elise would play a good whitney/ crackhead. Doesn’t matter who plays her though. I will go and see it. LOVE YOU WHITNEY!!!!


  8. It would be good to see an actual actress playing this role, although Monica & Eve kinda look like her.


  9. That will be BOMB!


  10. oooh…I can’t wait to see that!

  11. stunnaz

    i think she will do great..i mean she kinda resembles her a bit….and makeup will do the trick to relle make her lk like whitney AND I’M JUST WHITNEY IS BACK!!!!!

  12. Hannibal

    KANYE WEST SHOULD PLAY BOBBY BROWN

  13. tb

    She is pretty enough…but, I don’t know about the whole crack-head Whitney…IDK if she will be able to pull that part off. And we all know, Whitney is pretty hood.

  14. rainbowrabbit

    That would be great if it turns out to be true. I like her. Although, I’m concerned as to whether or not she could talk like Whitney. Lark Voorhies has always had somewhat of a high pitched voice.

  15. drenk

    i hope they throw screech a bone and give him a small part in this movie

  16. Nique

    I think she can pull it off

  17. t

    i cant see it

  18. S-Dizzy

    It should be lark Voorhies and Derek Luke.

  19. And thats real

    shes too big to play her…she gotta be stick skinny

  20. s

    i hope she can pull it off, i like her

  21. Young Obama

    This movie will be hilarious.

    I can see Lark saying: “Crack is wack! I make entirely too much money to do crack. if i do crack… show me the receipts”

  22. !!!!!R.I.P MIKE!!!!!

    YEAH SHE CAN PLAY WHITNEY VIVICA TOO.

  23. janet

    I always thought Kelly Rowland would be best to play Whitney

  24. Billie Jean

    Hannibal

    KANYE WEST SHOULD PLAY BOBBY BROWN

  25. fuhk u bossip. vivica’s wanted to play whit for years.

    and stop calling her a crackhead when basehead is more appropriate. she freebased u basturds!

    and i dont see any white folks calling out robert downey, jr. no, white folks forgive their druggies and let them continue with their careers.

    …except for lindsay lohan.


  26. Ghostface Killa Lark Voorhies

    I can’t even laugh, I can’t even bust it out

  27. Anonymous

    Anybody but Beyonce.


  28. Wow this should interesting. I like Lark Voorhies but can she pull this off?

  29. MJ lives on 4ever...

    I would love to see Lark Voorhies get this role. She and Whitney resemble each other a lot and she has acting skills.

  30. drenk

    @ the shoparazzi

    what about amy winehouse? she gets thrown under the bus anytime shes seen outdoors


  31. Can she act well enough to pull this off?
    I don’t think so. It must be a low-budget film.

  32. bobbi

    @the shoparazzi…. WORD!

  33. Miss Nuby

    Lark Voorhies gets my vote any day! I’d rather her than Beyonce or any other artist/rapper any day. Plus it would be good to see her in a lead role for once too. You go girl, I hope you get it :)

  34. KoKo

    Vivica Fox should play the part. She’d kill it.

  35. tender like roni but never a phony

    @ billie jean
    who’s that in your gravatar!?!

    don’t tell me it’s who i think it is.

  36. Beyonce "Sasha Fierce" Knowles

    Stop the Track, Let me state facts.
    I can play Diana, Etta, and Whitney on crack.

    I just want the world to know that all the biographies of the late greats belong to me. I will buy you out. I’m getting top billin. I’m a DIVA. I gets what I want. Tell Deoborah ***** that she can have that Josephine Baker role on Broadway. When it comes to the Big Screen It’s mine.

  37. Matthew Knowles

    My baby can act. We will fight everyone on this planet for this role. We are gonna make the movie and the soundtrack. If my girl can play a good heroine addict, then she can play a good crack head.

  38. DmD Hoe the 1 n da nati

    ^ all u negroes are comedy

  39. Sxy Lxy

    Viva could play her too. She likes to play in the snow. I prefer Lark. Let her shine. I think Kanye should play bobby. He has a messed up jaw and is arrogant.

  40. ACE

    IF ANGELA B*****ETT can play TINA TURNER and kill it. Lark can do Whitney. Shes been on broadway for a few years and I know that she can actually SANG!!!! I aint talking chirp I’m talking about putting some of these girls who got deals to shame! I think Lark will do a AWESOME JOB again look who selected her CLIVE DAVIS – When has he made a mistake? Clive is the *****f00ka and y’all know it. His track record is still hot and hes discovered Jesus LOL…. so I know this is a GREAT CHOICE unless Clive wouldn’t *****ociate his name with it … true word

  41. AWWWWWWWWWWWWSHADDAAAAAP!!!!

    This is bull*****. Lark has no box office draw. Clive must be getting senile or at least nursing a prolonged brain fart.

  42. fantacladd

    If this is true, they should get Tamyra Gray.

  43. BBBEE25

    Okay, I could see it. Look wise I thought they would’ve gone with Meagan Goode or Ciara. I don’t know anyone who can fill Whitney shoes in the singing department though!

  44. BBBEE25

    Vivica definitely would kill it, with all that crazy Whitney had going on, they both str8 forward and s*****y.

  45. kmw

    LARK ARE THEY SERIOUS?? HOPEFULLY SHE WILL COME WITH A WHOLE LOT OF ACTING LESSONS..I CAN’T SEE IT VIVICA FOX ON THE OTHER HAND,IF SHE WASN’T AS OLD AS WHITNEY NOW SHE WOULD’VE MADE A GREAT WHITNEY..

  46. d

    noone can sing like whitney so they can give up on trying to find that. they just have to lip it. but i agree ciara would be a good fit to play her.


  47. YAAAA*****SSS I love Lark! Good for her


  48. ok iam jst happy u bek with a bang gal!u made me realise tht nothng z imposible.i love u so much!u shud come 2 botswana 1 day!we wil be hapy if u do tht rit?
