With stardom come challenges that make celebrities face the reality of Tinsel Town. Five actresses profiled on "Hollywood Divas" experience the dark side of fame, like being blackballed by the industry over a personal relationship or confronting image issues over what others say about them. Golden Brooks thinks reality stars usurp actresses' roles; Countess Vaughn believes her physique limits her roles; Paula Jai Parker feels shunned for marrying a production aide; Lisa Wu strives for respect as an actress; Elise Neal, nearing 50, reignites her dance troupe.
A reality show about five women of color and their experiences working in Hollywood in the acting industry.
The episodes are interesting and varied, giving details on personal lives and the lives of friends and family members by extension.
What I learned from this series: some of these women are extremely childish, unprofessional, and mean-girlish at their big age.
Although I will still enjoy their acting performances, I don't like some of them as people.
