Q&A from UrbanWorld Tennessee screening

Two fans had the chance to ask Mariah questions about her work in the new Lee Daniels film Tennessee at the UrbanWorld Film Festival. Check out the questions and Mariah's responses below.

How was it trying it to get into character, the whole process of creating the song, and writing a song through a character who had gone through so much traumatic stuff?

Thank you for the question. The process was very different than writing for myself because it was obviously part of the script. So I tried to go into the mindset of what Krystal was going through and trying to to, again, serve the script, and do my best.

Did you learn anything about yourself while filming this movie?

I was blessed to be working with the wonderful people that I worked with and to have someone like Lee to take me under his wing and allow me to grow as an artist. Really, just not to be put into one category and explore more of who I am. I guess if I had to pick just one thing out of the many things that I learned it's that I'm capable of learning more than I thought because I had Lee's input. So, thank you for the question.
