She is repped by Buchwald and Vic Ramos Management. The Oscar-nominated Precious star and Empire actress delivers a riveting memoir that is wise, complex, smart, funny, and breaks the mold, just like Sidibe, herself. Simms’ additional television credits include “Luke Cage,” “Single Drunk Female,” “The Kings of Napa,” “The Last OG,” “Broad City,” “Sneaky Pete” and “The Good Wife,” among others. The series is inspired by Sidibe’s true-life story. But, what initially began as a quick money-making scheme suddenly becomes a life-changing experience when she meets the women who become her chosen family and learns how powerful her voice can be. After being fired from her latest job, she discovers a phone sex gig that seems like the easy answer to her money problems.
Set in the early 2000’s, the series follows Gabby (Sidibe) is a young and aimless woman living with her mom and making half-hearted attempts to become a singer/model and overnight millionaire. Anna Maria Horsford, Tisha Campbell, and Judy Reyes have been announced as recurring guest stars.
She joins previously announced cast members Karim Diané, Kristin Dodson, and Kassandra Lee Diaz as series regulars to star alongside Sidibe, who will executive produce and play the lead role of Gabby.
