With just over 2 weeks until the most anticipated film of 2018 hits theaters, Black Panther mania is officially underway!
We caught up with a few familiar faces on this year’s GRAMMY red carpet and when they admitted to being just as excited about the movie as everyone else, you know we had to put them on the spot. Read below to see what Ledisi, Marvin Sapp, Fabolous, Anthony Hamilton and Anthony Hamiltones, PJ Morton and Tina Campbell had to say about what their Black superhero names and superpowers would be if they were a part of the Black Panther crew.
Fabolous
Black Superhero Name:
“I think I’d stick with my name. Fabulous is a name that can work in so many different worlds. I’m gonna be Fabolous in everything I do.”
Superpower:
“I’m pretty cool in real life [laughs] so, it might be just some kind of extra power that just brings my cool to the whole world. Maybe the “cool” power will stop things from happening that escalate or get heated quickly.”
