Cedric “The Entertainer” & Niecy Nash Show you the Power of Soul in BE Entertained Magazine’s upcoming Power Issue

(July 31, 2013 – Atlanta, GA) TV Land’s favorite Soulful duo teamed up to bring the POWER for BE Magazine’s upcoming power issue. Both Cedric “The Entertainer” & Niecy Nash not only exude soul, they’ve managed to BEcome two of Black Hollywood’s most respected and highly regarded actors/comedians, truly showcasing the power of soul.

Cedric “The Entertainer” & Niecy Nash currenty play husband & wife on TV Land’s hit show “The Soul Man”, a show which actually parallels both of their lives in very striking ways. “The Soul Man” follows R&B superstar-turned minister Reverend Boyce “The Voice” Ballentine (played by Cedric) as he, his wife Lolli (Nash) and the rest of his family adjust to their new lifestyle. Going from being a soul singer, living the high life in Las Vegas at the top of the charts, to being a soul saver is quite the change – and not everyone is on board. “The Soul Man” airs Wednesdays at 11PM EST; here’s a snippet from last night’s show. http://www.tvland.com/video-clips/80498/the-soul-man-the-soul-man-sneak-peek–bride-and-prejudice
