Where's Big Blu?

Blogging about Mariah made me wonder whatever happened to Blu Cantrell. She was alright. Sorta like Mary J. Blige but not as old or good at singing (not good at singing in a good way).

The Wikipedia entry is decidedly pro-Blu, and in fact may have been written by Blu herself:

In the summer of 2005, a music video for the previously unreleased song, "The Cha Cha" was produced, but never released because the production agreement over the song was unfairly advantageous to the prodcuer [sic] and left Blu virtually out of the loop, so the video and the song were shelved. Also, in 2005, Hit 'em Up Style: Chart and Club Hits was released without any promotion in the U.S. It was a compilation/remix album containing Cantrell's two biggest hits, some other tracks from the former two albums and some remixes of tracks featured on the first albums. Blu continues to enjoy acclaim by European audiences. [. . .] Blu Cantrell is set to star in a play, on Sept 29th, called 'Gossip, Lies & Secrets'[2]. The stageplay will tour in 15 cities.

Answer: Big Blu is now an actress. Also note that Blu once reneged on a slated appearance in Playboy.
