Brandy & Whoopi's Emotional Cinderella Reunion

On April 1st, Brandy and Woobie Goldberg just had a heartfelt reunion on the view, marking nearly 30 years since they starred together in the 1997 Disney Cinderella with Whitney Houston. Brandy was there plugging her new memoir phases, and they dove right into memories from that iconic TV movie where Brandy played the lead as the first black Cinderella.

Things got emotional quick when they showed a clip from a 90s extra segment of Houston, surprising young Brandy backstage, telling her she was.

Proud, Woopie teared up, saying they were blown away by Brandy back then, while Brandy called Woopie kind and one of a kind on set.

Brandy opened up about chasing a meeting with her idol Houston before fame hit. She snuck from the nosebleeds to backstage at a form show using a band connection, but Houston had dipped.

Again later, but Houston went into labor finally linking up on the Cinderella set.

That film was a pop culture milestone, giving fresh faces to classic roles and opening doors.

In a 2021 Entertainment Weekly catch-up, Brandy called it a game changer full of magic and will be credited Houston's heart and soul for, pushing it forward.

These reunions remind us how those moments still inspire, keeping Whitney's legacy shining through stories like this one.
