Tearful reaction from Danielle Brooks at OITNB’s 10th anniversary

“She hasn’t seen me perform live, but she has seen me in cartoons,” the Broadway star explained. “I play the mother in Karma’s World, so she’s always like, ‘Mom! Mom!’ and she’ll point at the TV, then point at me.”

Danielle continued, “I think that’s really the coolest thing ever, especially the conversations they have on the show about kissing your hair or your skin, I really love being able to have those natural conversations and she hears it through my voice.”

You can hear Danielle Brooks in Karma’s Worldstreamed on Netflix.
