Summary
We’re excited to share that Legacy Talk with Lena Waithe is back for Season 2! Hosted by Emmy-winning writer, actor, and producer Lena Waithe, this series continues to honor the brilliance and impact of iconic Black legends in entertainment.
This season kicks off with the incomparable Tisha Campbell—actress and singer best known for her role on Martin. You’ll hear a sneak peek of this emotional and wide-ranging conversation, where Tisha opens up about nearly leaving acting before her big break, her unshakable bond with Tichina Arnold, and yes, the Martin Lawrence of it all. Lena also shares her unexpected love for Blossom, and the two connect over the ups and downs of longevity in Hollywood.
