Performance of the Day

Actor: ANIKA NONI ROSE
Film: "The Princess and the Frog"
Character: Tiana
Year: 2009

Bouncing back to Hollywood after almost being completely overshadowed by Hudson, Foxx, Murphy, and... ughhhh... Beyonce in "Dreamgirls", Broadway darling Anika Noni Rose really hit her mark with this performance. Playing the first black Disney princess (about freaking time), Rose showed she possesses a true talent for voice work. I hope she can carve out a place for herself in film and television, but if not, she will always have bragging rights. After all, how many people can say they are a Disney princess?
