Mos Def will be making an appearance in this coming season's Dexter on Showtime.  Mos Def will be playing a reformed criminal, Brother Sam, who owns a body shop.  Brother Sam claims to have found God and changed his ways.  When one of his employees comes under investigation by the police, he ends up running into our favorite serial killer Dexter played by Michael C. Hall.

New season beginning October 2nd.

Who ever thought Precious star Gabourey Sidibe would ever work again?  I mean she's fat.  She's Black.  She's dark-skinned.  She's fat.  And at the moment she has little fashion sense.  And did I mention she's fat.  These characteristics are all most people see when they look at Gabbie.  But I beg to differ. 

Howard Stern is quoted as saying:

"There's the most enormous, fat black chick I've ever seen.  She is enormous.  Everyone's pretending she's a part of show business and she's never going to be in another movie" ... "She should have gotten the Best Actress award because she's never going to have another shot. What movie is she gonna be in?"

Really Howard?  Well Stern and many others have already been proven wrong.  Sidibe has already signed on for one television series and a film.  Showtime Networks will be premiering a new original series titled The Big C.  It stars Oscar nominee and Golden Globe winner, Laura Linney, as a suburban mother and housewife whose recent cancer diagnosis makes her re-examine her life and shake it up a bit.  While trying to find new hope in her life Linney is dealing with a loving but highly immature husband (played by Oliver Platt) and Sidibe is one of her smart-mouthed students in her class.  The show is currently in production and is set to air this Summer.
