This Thursday, “CBS Mornings” offers a blend of music, history, and culinary delights, a mix as eclectic as Alicia Keys’ career itself. The Grammy-winning artist sits down with Gayle King to discuss her latest venture, the Broadway musical “Hell’s Kitchen.” While Keys is no stranger to the spotlight, this project marks a notable expansion of her creative empire, bringing her signature blend of storytelling and soul to the Great White Way. What inspired this theatrical leap? What challenges did she face translating her musical vision to the stage? King is likely to extract some revealing answers.
Nate Burleson, never one to shy away from an adventure, journeys to Harlem’s legendary Apollo Theater. This iconic venue has hosted generations of musical legends, from Ella Fitzgerald to James Brown, and its walls surely reverberate with stories.
And for those whose tastes lean more toward the culinary arts, Chef Masako Morishita joins the “CBS Mornings” crew. While the specifics of her segment remain tantalizingly under wraps, the presence of a renowned chef suggests a possible cooking demonstration or a conversation about current food trends. Perhaps she’ll even whip up a dish inspired by “Hell’s Kitchen,” though hopefully, one less fiery than the title suggests.
“CBS Mornings” airs weekdays from 7:00-9:00 AM on CBS.
