During the long, cold winter of HBO’s True Blood hiatus, Rutina Wesley will be stepping outside her familiar character as Tara Thornton to provide the voice for a character named Yvette on FOX’s The Cleveland Show. The Cleveland Show, recently renewed for a second season, is a spin-off of The Family Guy.
Talking to TV Guide Magazine, Rutina said:
I’m playing Cleveland’s wife’s best friend. They’ve known each other since they were kids. She has a big butt, big earrings and a real big voice. I love her.
AceShowbiz.com reports that in the episode, Cleveland is upset when he finds out that Donna is still attending a single mothers’ support group.
Rutina brings such comedy to her role as Tara, who is such a masterfully witty character, this episode should really give her a chance to show off that talent without any limits. I’ll definitely be setting my DVR.
The episode entitled “Ladies Night” is set to air on Nov. 15.
