B.I.G. Shoes To Fill

Here is a behind the scenes look at the casting calls for the Biggie Smalls biopic, Notorious. The producers of the film had a unique way of getting the best possible performance out of the would-be actors, by having them all line up in a row and rap over each other at the same time?

Is it just me, or is it kind of creepy to have his mom there? "You do not remind me of my dead son. You do not remind me of my dead son. You do not remind me of my dead son. Oooh, you remind me of my dead son. This one reminds me of my dead son. Over here, this one. You remind me so much of my dead son. You're going to be great reminding everyone of my dead son." Whatever, she can do what she wants. Moms are the best.
