'PARIS IS BURNING' FILM COULD BE REMADE BY LEE DANIELS

Mariah Carey's best friend 'Lee Daniels' could remake the iconic gay documentary 'Paris Is Burning'. Lee Daniels spoke about his new TV Series 'Star' which will star 'Naomi Campbell' and others about the two main actors.  Lee said that both Star and Simone are very poor and will do whatever it takes to survive.

Lee went on to say that he wants to incorporate things from real life in this series.  Such as Teyana Taylor dance at the MTV Awards, gay boys and girls voguing and maybe even remake Paris Is Burning into a musical as he told 'Queen Latifah'.  Here is what Lee shared:

The show’s main characters will do whatever it takes to survive. They’ll murder. They’ll f— you. They’ll rob you.  Star and Simone are very, very poor. They come from the foster-care system, and we explore the atrocities that happen there… That performance that Teyana Taylor did at the MTV Video Music Awards? Well, we’re going to get down in the dirt with mine. You’ll see the girls with the gay boys voguing in a way TV audiences are yet to see. It will be very much like ‘Paris Is Burning,’ which influenced me growing up. I told Queen Latifah that we should remake ‘Paris Is Burning’ as a musical.
