#jaiyeorie Brandy was the actual first Black Disney princess.
The R&B legend played the title orphan in a made-for-TV adaptation of Cinderella in 1997, with Whitney Houston as her fairy godmother.
Until it made its Disney+ premiere in 2021, Rodgers and Hammerstein's Cinderella spent many years being relegated to the VHS collections of kids from the 1990s.

The clip features the R&B legend — who originally graced the screen as the iconic princess in the 1997 TV movie Rodgers & Hammerstein’s Cinderella — wearing a regal, voluminous gown of baby blue and matching overcoat with her hair in a long, blue braid. She even reunites with her co-star Paolo Montalban, who’s now graduated from Prince to King Charming.

Brandy’s casting was first revealed back in November when the project was announced as a Descendants spin-off titled The Pocketwatch. At the time, the movie musical was purportedly centered around Red, the daughter of the Queen of Hearts, and Chloe, the daughter of Cinderella and Charming — but there’s no word yet on whether any plot points may have changed along with the new title.
