Additionally, R&B artist R. Kelly has signed on to write original music for the soundtrack. Pic is a remake of the 1976 film that centered on the three Williams sisters, who began singing in their church choir in Harlem in the late 1950s and went on to become a successful girl group, though their sudden rise took a toll on their personal lives. Remake takes place in 1968 Detroit during the rise of Motown. “American Idol” winner Jordin Sparks stars as the title character, a music prodigy who struggles to become a star as she overcomes issues that are tearing her family apart. Ejogo and Sumpter will play Sparks’ siblings, Sister and Dolores, respectively, while Whitney Houston plays the trio’s mother. Green will play a singer who serves as the girls’ opening act. Pic also stars Derek Luke as Stix, an aspiring Motown manager who discovers the sisters and eventually falls for Sparkle.

Wow: Jermaine Jackson says his family had secretly arranged to fly Michael to Bahrain if the pop icon was found guilty of child molestation. Jermaine was quoted as telling The Times magazine out Saturday that a private jet financed by a friend was on standby to whisk his late brother to the Gulf emirate if the 2005 court case ended with a conviction. Bahrain does not have an extradition treaty with the U.S. Jermaine says his brother did not know about the escape plan but Michael would have “done it in a heartbeat” because “why should he go to jail for something he didn’t do?” The singer was found not guilty on all charges. He later spent a year in the emirate as a guest of a son of Bahrain’s king. Jermaine is such an attention whore…he needs to sit the hell down somewhere and let his brother rest in peace.
