I wish I were an artist. I have this picture in my head of Chadwick Boseman talking to Christopher Reeve, giving the impression that Reeve is talking and animating to him his favorite parts of Black Panther.

Angie Baby remains one of the creepiest songs ever played on radio. I still don't know what Angie did to that boy.

She was the Queen on Disney Channel's Adventure in Wonderland series.

McQueen's friend Dorian Hannaway confirmed McQueen's passing on Facebook, writing, "You are truly an angel now. My dear friend Armelia crossed over yesterday. She leaves us cherishing her memory as she was one of the greatest friends could ever have. The only thing bigger than her beautiful soul was her extraordinary talent. She gave us such joy in her many turns on the Broadway stage as well as her film and TV roles. She was brilliant in Ain't Misbehavin' and so many other shows."

"But I will remember her as my girlfriend whose dazzling smile and...sense of humor gave me so much joy," she continued. "All of us who are lucky enough to call her our friend will be sustained by the many memories of the fun we all had together. My heart is sad this day; but I know I'll see my friend at the next party. Save me a seat, Queenie."

McQueen made her debut on Broadway in 1978 in Ain't Misbehavin'. The production won the award for Best Musical at the Tony Awards. McQueen reached a new generation of fans as Clara Brown, the sister to clairvoyant Oda Mae Brown (Whoopi Goldberg) in the 1990 romantic classic Ghost.
