Kathleen Bradley, Ice Cube, and "Hi, Mrs. Parker"

TVC 699.5: Ed welcomes Kathleen Bradley, the first African-American model to join ranks with Barker's Beauties on The Price is Right, and the actress known around the world as the voluptuous Mrs. Parker in the 1995 cult comedy Friday. Kathleen recently reunited with Ice Cube, one of her co-stars in Friday, on the set of Ice Cube's music video for "It's My Ego." (Kathleen appears prominently in several scenes of the video; she is the stylishly dressed churchgoer in the blue dress and blue wide-brimmed hat.) Topics this segment include how Ice Cube personally requested that Kathleen play Mrs. Parker in Friday; why it was something of a miracle that Kathleen landed the role of Mrs. Parker, considering that the producers of The Price is Right made it difficult for her and other Barker's Beauties to audition for parts in movies and other TV shows; and why making Friday itself was also something of a miracle. Kathleen's memoir, Backstage at The Price is Right, is available both at Amazon and at KathleenBradley.tv.
