"world news" anchor david muir leads our coverage this morning.

and good morning, america. let's get right to that breaking news. take a look at the devastation this morning. there it is right there in philadelphia. the train was headed from washington to new york. busiest line in america just around 9:30 last night, five miles out of philadelphia. all seven cars including the engine came off the track, three of the cars, you see one right there toppled on their side, one nearly upside down on its roof. >> 243 were on board including 5 crew members. about 200 have been taken to the hospital. hundreds of emergency responders on the scene right now. firefighters, police officers and federal investigators including the fbi. amtrak service between new york and philadelphia is shut down this morning. we have full team coverage. "world news tonight" anchor

david muir starts us off from the scene. david. >> reporter: robin and george, good morning. an incredible scene of destruction here in the overnight hours. you can see behind me the fire crew, the rescue crews still here on the scene, one of the busiest rail lines in the country from washington to philadelphia up to new york. there were so many people injured they were using vans to get them to nearby hospitals and we heard from the passengers who were using the lights on their iphones, their smartphones to find their way out of the darkness. overnight, the frantic search for passengers. you can see the flashlights as search and rescue teams surround the cars that came off the track. incredible scenes of destruction along america's busiest rail line. >> the train tilted over and rolled. >> reporter: 9:28 eastern, the first emergency call. the new york city bound amtrak train starting in washington, d.c. taking off at 7:10 p.m. 238 passengers, 5 crew members on board derailing in the port richmond section of philadelphia. >> one train looks like it's completely in pieces. >> reporter: almost immediately

the images of the wounded, bloodied but able to walk away from the crash. some crawling through emergency windows, others climbing through the roof of the train. from above you can see the scope of the wreckage, the train reduced to twisted metal, shattered glass, its engine detached three cars on its side one flipped over seven cars in all off the track. >> i heard like a big bang. >> reporter: this morning from inside the train, images capturing the chaos and the fear. passengers trying to escape describing the luggage that had been flying over their heads before those cars came to a screeching halt. >> keep crawling, okay. >> crawl forward, sir. >> shut down the entire northeast corridor. we have a major event here. we have people on the tracks and a couple cars overturned. >> reporter: first responders rushing to the scene pulling out passengers who were still trapped in the overturned cars. >> it happened in seconds. >> reporter: more than 100 passengers sent to area hospitals, so many they were using vans and buses to drive

the injured to the hospital. first responders still searching this morning still unable to say whether everyone is accounted for. former congressman patrick murphy who was on the train capturing these image, passengers pulling themselves up from the floor. >> human nature kicks in. there were people that were -- they didn't care about anybody else. they were getting off the train, stepping over people. the guy next to me was unconscious and i got him up. he was believe it or not okay. >> reporter: overnight the mayor of philadelphia on the scene describing the horror unlike anything he's ever seen. >> it is an absolute disastrous mess. >> reporter: the recovery effort pushing forward as federal investigators now arrive on the scene to determine what caused this deadly crash. authorities here on the scene now telling us the death toll now up to six and, again, they have not accounted for everyone on this train and keep in mind it's unlike a plane. you don't have an assigned seat, just a ticket, you go on and sit where you want, so difficult to make sure everyone has been accounted for.

you don't stow your luggage. you put it above you and that's why passengers are describing the luggage flying through midair. passengers flying, too. one woman telling me she could feel passengers bumping up into her until the train came to a halt and flipping on its side. much more from the scene in a couple of moments. george, back to you. >> thanks, david. we're joined by two of the survivors, beth davidz and paul chung. thank you both for joining us. beth, i can see you're a little banged up there. i hope you're feeling okay. tell us what happened. >> so, i mean it was -- i take this trip between philly and new york pretty often. i mean at first it was just a regular ride. i was on the phone. i hung out with my friend. about that time it felt like we were just taking a wide turn to the right. and then like it kind of -- it just had started to like roll over and it was just dark and you could just -- there were just bodies and seats and everything kind of falling around me and i mean it was kind

of that slow motion moment. i was in the third car and it actually tipped to the side so the only way to get up was actually up through the side which is the roof and then the car started to fill up with smoke so i mean i remember someone saying very calmly, you know, we need to get out of this car so we climbed up to the ladder. we had to slide off the side of the side of the car which is like a good eight feet. >> paul, let me ask you. it seemed to happen in slow motion. you first felt the shakes and then everything went haywire. >> yeah, i was at the back of the train and, again, similar to beth's story i was playing around with my phone, you know, streaming netflix and suddenly, you know, the car as if someone had slammed the brake and suddenly everything start shaking really hard and the whole train went dark then i saw some passenger also escaping from the window. >> beth, this must have been the more horrifying thing you've ever been through but also seemed like people kept their heads about them.

>> you just want to hug the other survivors next to you to help people and connect with others to think about the logistics of i don't have a wallet or a shoe right now. >> a lot of the passengers were very brave, you know, they came out very collected. >> yeah. >> you know, while in shock, everything happened really orderly. it wasn't a massive chaos. >> we're glad you're both okay right now. thanks for joining us. >> thank you. >> thank you. >> oh, i can't believe it. >> we saw them hugging right there. paul and beth weren't traveling together but did used to work together at the associated press. glad they're okay. >> have a hug like that. musician yameen allworld was in the fourth car. he captured video helping people off the train. he joined us just a short time ago. >> please tell us how you're doing this morning. >> i had some minor injuries to my leg actually. >> and can you tell us, yameen,

what happened? what did you see? what did you feel? what did you hear? >> it just felt like our car was leaving the ground. i started floating in the air and i just felt my body lifting up and going forward over seats and start toppling. >> and when did help arrive and how did you get out? >> we could see fairly well. i turned the light on on my cell phone so we could see better and checked on other people. there was a lady stuck in between a chair so we helped her out. you know, i was close to the front of the car so we just walked towards the door and i had just held the light up so people could see and get out. >> you were posting videos and we heard in your videos, yameen, you helping people and just doing anything that you could. many people would like to think they would act the same way in a situation like that. was it just an instinct that kicked in with you? >> yes. i didn't have to think twice about it.

it was just, you know, i was there, i was an able body and so i was just trying to do what i could to help people. >> i know that you emcee for questlove and he sent out a nice tweet about you overnight. he said, thank god that you are here to literally see another year. today is your birthday. >> yes, yes. today is my birthday, yes. >> and i know that you're feeling very, very grateful this morning, aren't you? >> yes, i'm so grateful, yes. >> yameen, thank you. i know you and others and ourselves included are thinking of those who were not as fortunate but thank you so much. >> yes. >> thank you. you take care. >> thank you, thanks for having me. god bless everyone. >> god bless. peace. >> peace. >> about 200 people were treated at nearby hospitals and let's go to abc's david wright at temple university hospital. dozens of victims taken there. some of them in critical

condition this morning, david. >> reporter: good morning, robin. at least ten people remain in critical condition including eight people here at temple university hospital. this is one of the few level one trauma centers in philadelphia a total of 54 patients brought to this hospital. half of them remain including the critical patients. one person died overnight and this is one of five area hospitals that took casualties. at least 150. robin robin, that's half the train. >> it is. all right, david, thank you. we go back to the scene now. david muir is there with david kerley who covers transportation for us. david. >> reporter: and, robin, as you know we learned six dead from this, five here at the scene. one later at the hospital and you and i were talking that many of these injuries are severe chest injuries. the next logical question how fast was that train going? federal investigators on the

scene. >> they're coming. speed is one of the factors. you and i were able to get around and see one of these mangled cars and even though they are damaged severely the investigators will learn a lot about what happened to this train. >> one train looks like it's completely in pieces. >> reporter: the train derailed and broke apart on a corner with a reported speed limit of 55 miles an hour. the pictures tell the story. the engine and all seven cars jumped the tracks. >> we have train cars that are completely overturned on their side ripped apart and the engine completely separated from the rest of the train. >> reporter: the engine and two cars landing upright. three on their side, one nearly on its roof. this electric locomotive is high tech. just a year old and can reach up to 125 miles per hour. investigators will look at that engine, the cars, the track. a report two years ago said rails for amtrak trains are in desperate need of repair and

investigators will look at the curve the train was negotiating. this is where the train was supposed to go but this is where it ended up, the cars in pieces. >> they've been destroyed completely. the aluminum shell has been destroyed and overturned completely. >> reporter: despite all this destruction crash investigators will find clues in the mess to tell us why amtrak train 188 jumped the rails as it was leaving philadelphia. >> and you talk to the people who live here in philadelphia and can't believe this happened right here in their backyard but they'll also remind you there was another train accident right here more than 70 years ago. >> more than 70 years ago, different circumstances we think. it was a problem with the car. it jumped and nearly 80 people were killed. it seems to be a coincidence it happened in the same place. a lot more to learn from the investigators. ntsb on their way right now. >> you'll be with me for "world news tonight." until then back to george. >> now more from deborah hersman.

the former chair of the ntsb. now president of the national safety council. deborah, tell us what this go to team, the ntsb go to team will do right now. >> the daylight is really helpful for them. they'll be securing the scene, gathering any perishable evidence and doing documentation. key to the team will be grabbing those recorders right away. they've got event recorders and also video recorders on many trains and so they'll be looking at those very closely. >> what can they learn from those black boxes? >> so the black boxes will tell them things like speed, throttle position, braking, but also there are often inward and outward facing video cameras that will tell them a lot of information about the track conditions and the environmental conditions and they will be looking at every train that came through earlier to see if they had any trouble reports coming through that same section of track. >> as david said there have been some concern, there has been some concern about these tracks needing a lot of repairs. >> you know, i will tell you our

infrastructure when it comes to transportation is critical. whether it's highways or rails or our airports, we have to invest in our infrastructure to make sure that it's in good repair and that it's going to last us. >> how about the possibility of human error? what's it going to take to rule that in or out? >> well, they'll be looking very closely at the human, the machine and the environment and so those recorders will tell them about the operating conditions at the time. but they'll also be looking to interview those crew members, particularly the locomotive engineer who is generally alone in the cab operating -- they'll want to talk to that person as soon as possible. >> okay, deborah hersman, thanks very much. the fbi also on the scene this morning, homeland security involved, as well. let's go to pierre thomas for more on that. any indication, pierre, of foul play? >> reporter: not so far, george. transportation investigators are the lead but the fbi has sent agents to the scene and stands ready to assist as needed. sources say there's no evidence of foul play and looks like an

accident but admit it's too early to know what happened. given the scale of the derailment and loss of life authorities want to know what this is as quickly as possible. sources say it's routine for the fbi to be at a transportation disaster, but there's a sense of urgency to find out the basics of what caused this terrible incident. george. >> so much more work to be done. pierre, thanks very much. now today's other top stories starting with the u.s. military helicopter missing in nepal. >> that's right and the search is now expanding for that missing marine corps helicopter last seen conducting an aid mission in nepal just hours after another massive earthquake killed dozens of people in that country. six marines were on board the helicopter which was one of three that were deployed to nepal after the earthquake. american and nepalese military are in the air and on the ground this morning but searches have been unable to locate the helicopter's emergency beacon. breaking story from north korea overnight. the country's top defense official has reportedly been executed because he fell asleep

during a meeting. south korea's intelligence agency says the general was accused of treason for not carrying out leader kim jong-un's instructions. a political setback for president obama courtesy of his own party. senate democrats have blocked debate on his pacific trade deal. they are demanding more protections for american workers. and racial anger is again spilling out onto the streets of an american city, this time, madison, wisconsin, after a white police officer, matt kenny, was cleared of all charges in the shooting death of unarmed teenager, tony robinson. prosecutors say struggle. robinson's family has called for peaceful demonstrations. and a group looking to replace andrew jackson on the $20 bill with a woman has now chosen a successor. abolitionist harriet tubman won an online vote and they hope the 600,000 who voted will help pressure the president to make the change. finally did you hear the one

about the seal who walked into the fish market? well, it's no joke. it actually happened in oregon. the hungry seal, he was no fool. jumped on to the dock, stumbled into this fish store looking for free food then it made off with a bag that had fallen off. his lucky catch, right? not so much because there was fruit inside and when the seal finally realized it said no thank you, dropped the bag and dropped into the harbor looking for actual fish he could catch. >> al capone robbed banks because that's where the money is. >> exactly. >> i'm sure there was swedish fish on the counter there. >> thank you for that. back from there. still some problems in texas. >> texas can't catch a break. it's flash flooding across the houston area. this is webster, texas, where you can see the rainfall is up over and over the hoods of these cars and video coming in from houston showing people walking through it, wading through it knee and waist deep. 6 to 8 inches of rainfall just really falling in the last 6 to 10 hours in some spots of texas seeing over a foot of rain.

responsive and they still refused. >> reporter: wells says the patriots even asked him to be thorough in his investigation because they believed the league had a personal vendetta against them rejecting claims that he was not acting independent of the league. >> i think it's wrong to criticize my independence just because you disagree with my findings. >> reporter: this morning, die-hard pat fans are outraged over the suspension and the million dollar fine against their team. what do you think? >> it's egregious. >> reporter: but some former footballers speaking out siding with the nfl. >> make him suffer a little bit more. it's all about this i'm perfect. i'm never wrong. >> a rule is a rule and it's up to the nfl to uphold the standards and integrity of the national football league. >> reporter: it didn't take long for others to jump on the bashing bandwagon putting up

first of all, being able to dance with derek one last time really meant so much to me and that dance was kind of the perfect way to go out. it was such a special moment, not only to share with derek but then with len and be able to tell his story of his career, so it really was a special dance and, yeah, i mean i definitely didn't want to leave but it was a good night. >> it felt like a little send-off but it was very special. >> your sister said she was an emotional wreck. >> that show in general, everybody was so fantastic. you know, i think, you know, noah was sensational. there was a moment where he just like closed his fist and i was like, that's it. in that moment i knew he was going to the finals and he deserves to be there. just been a fantastic season and ironic, just an interesting one too because, you know, having her dance with two different partners and, you know, and handling that so flawlessly and effortlessly. incredible. >> you playing with so much pain. how do you feel right now? >> i feel good.

i'm healing extremely fast which is good because i start rehearsals for tour tonight back in l.a. so -- >> you're going back to l.a. tonight? >> yeah. for the summer tour. i'm doing really good. but she's -- it was great to be able to dance with her one last time and with len too. that was really special. >> do you think all the travel back and forth you were doing, the residency in new york and radio city, did that play a part in your opinion in sort of keeping it as tight as it could be? >> i don't know. you know, it's funny, this morning we flew back here and we haven't been flying back and forth for the past three weeks because of my injury but we were like we kind of missed that. that kind of back and forth. >> chaotic. >> were you really learning moves by text? >> videoing and a routine where we had two rooms. she was going from one room to the other in her jive, and it kind of represented her experience on the show because she was going back and forth with partners each week. >> i love how you jumped the fence.

sometimes the producers when they do the back story pieces, you're a good partner but the remaining three, who do you all think? who is going to take home the mirrorball trophy? >> so hard to say. i mean, every single couple has a different strength and that's what's so cool to see. i mean, riker has been like amazing from day one, but i think his kind of moment was the pirates moment that he had. he like was in character the entire day, and then rumer and val have been incredible and just showing that emotion and chemistry and noah has just been such an inspiration to all of us and any time we -- i know any time i want to complain about anything it's like you have no excuse. and you have no reason to complain. >> yeah. >> it's been a fantastic season watching. >> a great attitude. >> thank you. >> congratulations. >> we haven't seen the last of either one of you. >> thank you very much. >> thank you. >> no, you haven't. i'll see you guys shortly. >> i know. >> always, always. >> get a chair for you, you're on so much. we love you, derek. >> we do. >> "dancing with the stars" finale starts next monday at 8:00 eastern, 7:00 central right here on abc.

>> he'll be in residency there in no time. also in "pop news" this morning, they say experience is the best teacher. you won't get more experienced teachers than these. how about learning acting from dustin hoffman or writing from james patterson. a new company called master class backed by robert downey jr. allows online students to learn from simply the best. $90 gets you between 2 and 5 hours of instruction from the world's greatest. another one of the masters teaching i was pretty excited to hear, serena williams giving in-depth tennis lessons using videos. so, you guys, you'll know where to find me if i go missing two to five hours. >> it's a great idea. >> it's a terrific idea. i'm actually very serious. i'm going to take serena's master class. if it helps my backhand, girl, it's worth more than $90. finally, everybody, emily carlton may be one stomach flu away from reaching her ideal weight and it now looks like we may be one producer away from a "devil wears prada" musical.

kevin mccollum whose past projects include "rent" and in the heights say he is working hard to bring the film starring meryl streep and anne hathaway to the stage. both actresses already have musicals under their belts so just throwing that out there as possible casting options. however, let's just hope the production team doesn't move at a glacial pace and you know how that thrills me. and as meryl steep's crashing miranda priestly would say -- >> that's all. >> and that is "pop news." >> well done, lara. >> i knew you were going to use that. i knew it. >> let's go to rob. >> hey, guys, we're out here. great crew from all over the country including from conyers, georgia, where i know a few people. we take you out west, the pacific northwest where rain is going to move in, and this will drive into northern california where they need it. let's go further west or farther west or east depending on which way you're flying because we're going to go to ginger in just a second.

>> morning, and happy hump day. i am meteorologist mike nicco with the bay area microclimate forecast. the clouds have kept us mild and will keep us ten degrees cooler than average with rain tonight and showers tomorrow, and slight warming this weekend. 70 in fairfield and antioch. that it is. everyone else is in the 60s until you get to the coast into san francisco and mid-to-upper 50s. my seven-day forecast shows tomorrow morning the commute looks to be wet with scattered showers and thunderstorms in the >> that's the weather. the big moment is finally here. ginger and her drones inside the planet's most magnificent hidden world. we went right up to the brink yesterday. today ginger will take us inside. she's been trekking for days and we are so excited to get inside with ginger right now. where exactly are you, ginger? >> oh, george, i am way down

here. from the perspective you can see me about 400 feet below the top of one of the world's largest caverns inside a mountain inside a jungle in central vietnam and this, i have to be honest with you, has been one of or the, i would say, most difficult, dangerous and grittiest assignments i have ever been a part of. let me explain a little of what's happening. it may look like a white sand beach where we're standing. we've been staying in these tents. we've been cooking over fires. this, again, is very remote. we are not close to any civilization, but we've got a lot of folks around us, a great team that has come together because we had to find the hidden world that was only a third of a mile from here and it was only found a couple of decades ago but really was not discovered and explored until 2009. so this is brand-new to our world. the subterranean surreal life that has been revealed and now you get to be a part of it including the awesome images you'll see from our friends at dji drones.

all right. let's get right into it. we enter through a claustrophobic crevice. you have to crawl to get into the biggest cave in the world. okay. this is small. then it opens up. i don't want to miss this part. and drops down and down and down. i can't see beyond the narrow beam of my headlamp, but i am keenly aware that those ropes are here because a fall would be disastrous. oop. sorry. this place does not look real. at the bottom i feel like i've landed on another planet. a subterranean rushing river. now i find myself in mother nature's sculpture garden filled with prehistoric boulders and stalagmites, gigantic columns built up from calcium deposited from dripping water. this is a stalagmite. >> we're actually inside a stalagmite here where the water is worn away all the bottom. >> reporter: after a grueling hour, an illuminating light a

thousand feet overhead. spectacular. every turn there's something else. this colossal skylight where the chamber ceiling collapsed is called a doe line breathing life into this underground world, it's a lush green oasis, our camp's white sand beaches lit up below. it looks like "avatar" in here. it doesn't feel real. >> no. >> reporter: this is that hidden world we've been chasing. son doong or mountain river cave, the planet's largest and visited by fewer explorers than outer space. just look at this. it is unbelievable. i'm standing on this colossal stalagmite. the jewel in the crown of son doong cave. it's the moment that took my breath away and it's also the moment i realized we're not even halfway there yet. we press on and suddenly i'm in a jungle under a second monster skylight. not atop of a mountain but inside it, way inside it, more

than 800 feet below the surface. >> you don't normally get trees and jungles in caves. that's why it's so different. >> reporter: jungle plants and animals from above adapting to this unique subterranean netherworld. >> we've come across monkeys with sticks thrown at me by monkeys. >> in here. >> in here. >> throwing sticks. >> throwing sticks. >> what a view from those drone cameras. this mammoth crater big enough to park two 747s inside and tall enough to fit an 80-story skyscraper. the cave's flowing river, the creator of this alien world, carving its way through a limestone mountain for 2 million years forming the largest underground chamber on earth. more than 1.3 billion cubic feet of subterranean awesomeness. that's more than 15,000 olympic-size swimming pools. appropriate since five months out of the year this underground marvel is underwater. >> the river goes 80 meters tall at least and 100 meters wide and flowing very, very fast.

there's no way you can get anywhere near this area. >> reporter: danger is everywhere here alongside breathtaking beauty like a fantasy world come to life. the punishing journey worth every ounce of sweat. what gives me goose bumps are the still unexplored passages that branch off our route tunneling deeper. >> good morning, america. welcome to son doong. the majesty of this place will take you on such an emotional journey. i feel superior because i climbed this. i'm part of history but i feel inferior because if something this grandiose was just found imagine what else is out there. ♪ beauty in the world ♪ >> this adventure is only for the elite. and their emphasis is on conservation and sustainability. as rough as it's been, it was totally worth it now that you can see those images, george. >> we sure can, ginger. we're looking down on you now. i know you have the drone there. can you send it up the wall and give us a sense of how deep

underground you are right now so we get a sense of the scale? >> yeah, at this point we are almost 400 feet underground but this is one of the more shallow places. there are places within son doong, that mountain river cave that are 1,000 feet below or more and they haven't even explored all of that. that's the crazy part. >> wow, that is just incredible. >> the technical crew to be able to pull this off too. kudos. >> well done. we'll have a lot more from ginger coming up. we'll be right back. >> yeah. >> great job, ginger.

reopened. it looks like traffic has dissipated.

>> i couldn't have known what i was getting into here but i'm so grateful i had an awesome team around me the abc team that got us out of here. i don't even understand how the engineering work but they do. dji, romeo durscher and ferdinand wolf awesome pilots obviously giving us those images and our adventure tour group so concerned about sustainability it's really inspiring. >> i know you're concerned about that. also concerned when you left here, you knew you weren't going to be shower for a few days but is everything working out? >> i'm okay right now. but it is not good. i'm going to need to get home soon. we have a couple of ponds, one that's cold. one that's lukewarm and we can wash ourselves in there. it's been rough. >> so worth it. ginger i i understand that there are fossils down there over 400 million years old.

what else can you tell us has been discovered down there? >> you know they bring scientists down here only a few so far and said as they bring them down they find something new every time an expert gets down here. already seven new species of new animals and know there's new plants to be found including those fossils. really exciting science-wise. >> we said yesterday there's no map of the trek so how do scientists know where to go? >> well that's the thing. we've got two english explorers that were the first explorers. they're the ones we went with and only ones that really have the right idea to go through this thing. that's just one path. remember, there are little caverns that go off the main cave. the largest cave in the world, you got this, could take another couple of decades before we fully understand what's in

there. >> tell us more about the crew. you were telling us earlier but there are people -- i want to call them locals but there's nothing local around there but the people you have helping you out. >> yeah this is the best part. so, you know even the guy behind the camera chris, he has had to do the trek too so he couldn't carry and lug his huge 0-pound camera around so he had help from local villagers that have now turned to the sustainable tourism to make money. it's really really inspiring because -- and the vietnam government loves it because they say, you know this is great for all these people who are just trying to live off the land. now this is a whole new industry they'll be able to get into. 60 people have been carrying all our stuff. it's so heavy. >> they're so protective of it because there is so much to be learned from it and there is as we've said, nothing in the world like it. what a treat. >> what a great job. >> get home safe ginger. tell everybody thank you for --

would you look who's here. doing this. actress queen latifah. hey. not only does she star -- she's also an executive producer of the new hbo movie "bessie." all about legendary blues singer bessie smith's rise from obscurity to international fame in this clip oh. the empress of blue that's what she's known as confronts her mentor model rainy played by monique. >> you're busted because they

was yelling for me. >> you better turn your damper down. >> i ain't scared of you. >> i ain't never asked you to be. all i asked you for was respect. respect for yourself respect for -- >> respect all this extra money i'm bringing in. >> oh let me get you. because i see you ain't learned your lesson yet. >> throwing some serious shade. >> let me get you, gal. >> it's great to have you, queen. you auditioned for this 20 some years ago and it's a passion project for you. you thought this story really needed to be told. why. >> i think hbo even has a video of the audition the original audition on the hbo website but it's a passion project for me because this is the role of a lifetime and when it came to me originally i was young and i had just really started acting. this would have been the biggest movie of my career to date. but what a character and what a life she lived and, you know she did such amazing things for

music, for women, for african-americans, for crossing barriers and color lines and really just lived her life as such a bold unapologetic way that this was a great role to play just was so many places to go. >> and to see it you know you and monique both just jump off the screen and the entire cast and you describe bessie very well. i mean she lived her life out loud. she had affairs with men, she had affairs with women. she was a hard drinker. she really just -- ahead of her time in many ways. i love how you said you had to take off your seat belt to play this role. >> i definitely had to because for me in order to really go there, i couldn't think about anything else. i couldn't think about, you know coming off a two weeks before that being queen latifah the talk show host or being queen latifah the partner of flavor unit entertainment or

being my mom's daughter -- i couldn't think about anything else and i couldn't have any fear in playing this character because she really deserves for someone to play her with that kind of fearlessness and i had to. taking a seat belt off wasn't just about fighting scenes. >> there were some -- there was a rough and tumble. >> oh there's a bunch of rough and tumble ones but there's a lot of vulnerability that has to be shown. there's a lot of heartbreak that has to be played and a lot of singing that has to be done and so you have to let go. i had to let go in order to really immerse myself in her world. >> we know how you paved a way for many to come behind you, other rappers and bessie did the same thing and people don't know her as well. but she really set the stage and really allowed the singer aretha franklin others come behind her. >> if you hear -- if you like mick jagger, if you like janis joplin, if you like billie holiday, then you like bessie smith. but that's what you don't know

because she was alive 100 years ago so maybe you're not familiar with her music but i'm hoping people will check her out and find out who she is because she has such a huge influence all the music that you still hear today and to me that's just unbelievable. she's such a powerhouse voice and i only wish there was more footage of her and audio recordings done on today's equipment like had she sang into a microphone like we have you would they have hear another singer on this planet who soups as amazing and powerful as bessie in that's something coming from you and i am sure she would be so proud of you and all that you have going on with your production company you alluded to. you have a film out. >> yes, "brotherly love" is out right now and many more to come shooting "catch-22" in latch out in a few months. so many projects we're coming up the line with. we have a show coming up with my stylist tim snell who everybody knows from the show on b.e.t. called "curb appeal." so excited about that.
