Subject: Lady Gaga to play Cilla Black in Dionne biopic

Written By: Philip Eno on 05/13/16 at 5:31 am

Dionne Warwick wafted into Cannes this morning to announce a film is to be made about her life.

LeToya Luckett, an original member of Destiny's Child, will play the singer in the biopic - in which Lady Gaga will also appear as Cilla Black.

Warwick and Black had quite the rivalry back in the day, particularly when Cilla's version of Anyone Who Had a Heart eclipsed Dionne's original.

Asked on Friday why she regarded Black as her nemesis, Warwick said it was "because she stole my music".

Danny Glover will play Dionne Warwick's father in the film.

While I loved Dionne's interpretations of Bacharach/ David songs ... I preferred Cilla's versions of Anyone Who Had A Heart  and Alfie.
