Theresa Randle, who also starred in "Bad Boys," flexes her acting prowess as she imperonates Dorothy Dandridge, Foxy Brown and Lovely. "Girl 6" will probably launch her career as a serious actress. Her range will amaze audiences. Randle can also be praised for her endurance. Her character changes her outfits and her wigs so often, it's a wonder that Randle didn't collapse from exhaustion...
