Gabourey Sidibe has already had her big break with this year’s Oscar-nominated film Precious and now it looks like her mother, Alice Tan Ridley, is getting her own shot at fame with an upcoming appearance on NBC’ s competition show, America’s Got Talent . Ridley, a former teacher who has been earning an income by dancing in a New York subway the past few years, confirmed the April booking to Radar: “It’s a big break for me and I would like to follow in Susan Boyle’s footsteps and become a star in my own right.” [ Radar ]
