Jordin Sparks makes her big-screen acting debut in ‘Sparkle,’ which hits theaters nationwide today. The movie is a remake of a cult classic from the seventies that starred Irene Cara and featured music from Aretha Franklin.
‘Sparkle,’ set in 1960s Detroit, is the story of the title character, a talented singer/songwriter who struggles to find her own artistic voice while performing in a group with her two sisters. Sparks plays Sparkle, while the late Whitney Houston plays her Bible-thumping mother, a former singer who tries to steer her children away from the evils of the music business.
