I started hearing about this quite some time ago, but this is the first time I've seen any article about it recently. Tony award-winning actress, Anika Noni Rose, will be the voice of Princess Tiana, Disney's first black princess. The 36 year-old, who costarred in Dreamgirls in 2006, is currently working on the film titled The Princess and the Frog. Set in New Orleans, Rose also points out that it is the first American Princess. Princess Tiana's mother is to be voiced by Oprah Winfrey.
Disney's Princesses include other multi-culture backgrounds such as Jasmine from the Middle East, Mulan from China and Pocahontas who is Native American.
