Da Brat cast in Carey film, indicted for assault
Rapper Da Brat will make her cinematic debut in the upcoming Mariah Carey film, "All That
Glitters," a project scheduled to start shooting on July 24 in Toronto with director Vondie
Curtis-Hall. According to "The Hollywood Reporter," Da Brat, whose real name is Shawntae
Harris, has been cast in the role of "Louise," a friend of Carey's character, the lead role
in the film.
"All That Glitters" is a rags-to-riches story loosely modeled on Carey's rise to the top
of the pop scene. In the movie, a struggling young singer raised in several foster
gets her big break after a DJ hears one of her demos. Brat's role in the film will reteam
her with Carey, whom she opened for during the singer's North American tour in late March
and early April.
In related Da Brat news, the rapper may have to take a few days off from the "Glitter" set
next month to attend a plea and arraignment hearing at a Fulton County Superior Court. A
spokesperson for the Atlanta District Attorney's office told MTV News that a grand jury
formally indicted Harris on June 16 on two felony counts of aggravated assault for her part
in a barroom brawl back in March. If convicted, Da Brat faces from one to 20 years in prison
on each of the felony assault charges. Harris is next scheduled to be in court in mid-August,
although the judge in the case has yet to set a date for the hearing.
