Teyana Taylor Is The First Black Woman To Be Dubbed Maxim’s ‘Sexiest Woman Alive’
Now with the sexiest stamp of approval by Maxim, Taylor is gearing up for her next work venture— starring as Dionne Warwick in a film about the legend’s life.
Follow Warwick’s recent explosion on Twitter, the two women engaged in a brief conversation on the social platform about the possibility of Taylor portraying the musician in a new movie.
The 30-year-old shared that the brief conversation was quickly followed up by Warwick and her team.
“It was crazy ‘cause once I responded, she and her son immediately reached out and we got on the phone and got straight to it. And now we’re at the development stage and it’s so exciting,” she told Maxim.
“I want to make sure she approves everything and is comfortable with everything before we move forward,” she said of her meetings with Warwick. “That was the most important thing for me, to really learn one another and know what it is that she wants, and make sure her story is coming from her own mouth, rather than bringing people in to change her narrative.”
While Taylor continues to explore different fields of work, one thing remains clear: she will do it as the best version of herself. Congrats T.
