Tony and Grammy Award winner Heather Headley (Aida, The Lion King) took her final bow in London this past weekend as the star of the West End’s hit production The Bodyguard Musical.
Headley earned a 2013 Olivier Award nomination for Best Actress in a Musical for her portrayal of the superstar diva Rachel Marron, a role made famous by the late great Whitney Houston in the 1992 film.
The burning question: When will the Lion Queen, Nubian Princess, and Queen of the Night continue her reign on Broadway?
According to the New York Post, The Bodyguard producers are eying a Spring 2014 Broadway debut, but a date has yet to be confirmed.
It really doesn’t matter what Heather Headley does on Broadway–she can stop, drop and roll in the middle of Times Square eight times a week–we just want her back home.
Come home, Heather. We’ll be good to you, promise.
