Danielle Pinnock of CBS' "Ghosts" -- Multicultural TV Talk (Podcast)

Danielle Pinnock, one of the many breakout stars in the ensemble of CBS' hit comedy Ghosts, joins us on the podcast and chats about her experiences working on the series, sharing that she was actually a replacement for the initial actress cast as Alberta, and how she is the total opposite of her character. She describes herself as a "home body" while Alberta is a "boisterous, brassy, delicious hot mess of a diva! Danielle also shares who from history and her own life inspired her character. "I wanted to pay homage to all of the unsung heroes of the 1920s, especially the Black heroes -- the Bessie Smiths, the Ma Raineys -- and really give them some shine through this character,” she says.
