Halle has been very vocal about being representation for young Black girls and kids, and what their reactions to seeing her as a Disney princess means to her.
Check out what she recently shared inside…
“Even just talking about it or thinking about it, I start to just well up because it’s so special to me, to be able to see the reactions to something that I worked so hard on for so long,” Halle recently told Extra. For them to like it and also just for them to see themselves on the screen, it’s so important. Representation. So, I’m just happy that I get to kind of be that person for them to look to.”
