QUESTION EVERYTHING

No One is Going To Save You (and Other Life Lessons): with Nicco Annan


Listen Later

Actor, dancer, choreographer and star of the hit Starz drama P-Valley, Nicco Annan is bringing his magic to PRETTYSMART today. The Detroit-born actor refused to conform to a Hollywood template and instead has made a name for himself by embracing his individuality and following his intuition.  His portrayal of Uncle Clifford (the revolutionary + beloved character) has earned him critical acclaim as well as nominations from the NAACP and independent spirit awards. Danielle + Nicco discuss:

  • The meaningful lesson he learned in high school + how that has carried him in life. 
  • How being told he was too big to be a dancer helped him in the long run. 
  • Why it’s important to use all of your gifts when trying to achieve your dreams. 
  • How he was held at gunpoint at 14 years old. 
  • How P-Valley is helping change how we view sex workers and strippers.  
  • The role of intimacy in playing Uncle Clifford and how Nicco approaches the masculine/feminine qualities of the character.
  • What he’s learned from playing Uncle Clifford and how he knows this role is bigger than him. (and why his character is so beloved + impactful)
  • Why it’s important that P-Valley has all female directors and the male gaze.
