FIRST LOOK: Jamie Foxx in ‘White House Down’ and Keke Palmer as TLC’s Chilli

Posted by | Ray Cornelius

An official trailer has been released for Roland Emmerich’s new political thriller White House Down.

As previously reported, the film stars Channing Tatum as a Secret Service agent who tries to save the president when the White House is attacked by a paramilitary group.  Jamie Foxx will play the President of the United States and Garcelle Beauvais will star as his wife, the First Lady.

In other news, we spotted this photo of actress Keke Palmer on the set of the new VH1 biopic Crazy,Sexy,Cool: The TLC Story. It appears that Palmer is getting some assistance transforming into Rozanda ‘Chilli’ Thomas and we like what we see so far.

Rocking Chilli’s signature “baby hair” and wavy locks, Ms. Keke looks like she is going to pull this role off despite criticism she received from people saying that she looked nothing like the R&B star.  However, Ms. Keke has set the record straight by saying that she was not chosen for the part because she looked like Chilli but because she could play the role.

RC can’t wait to see this film when it hits the small screen later on this year.

Tell us what you think about Keke Palmer’s look for the film…
