The stars tell me this new season brings more heart, more laughs and a Philadelphia icon!
"We have a wonderful diva from Philadelphia playing my mother-in-law, Miss Patti LaBelle," says Saycon Sengbloh, who plays Lillian Williams.
"I know you guys will love seeing that amazing, wonderful pie-making talent on the show. Philadelphia will not be disappointed in seeing Miss Patti!"
The coming-of-age comedy tells the story of a Black middle-class family in the late 1960s in Montgomery, Alabama.
Phoebe Robinson joins the cast as Lillian's "infamous" sister, Jackie.

"I come into town causing trouble, having fun, doing my own thing," Robinson says. "I am showing a little bit of leg, and doing all those things that little sisters like to do from time to time to push the boundaries."

Philadelphia's Lee Daniels is an executive producer on the show.
