Eve has been tapped as a lead in Queens, ABC’s hourlong pilot from Zahir McGhee, Sabrina Wind and ABC Signature.In Queens, written by McGhee, estranged and out-of-touch, four women in their 40s reunite for a chance to recapture their fame and regain the swagger they had as the Nasty Bitches – their ’90s group that made them legends in the hip-hop world.Eve will play one of the women, Brianna.

Twenty years ago, Brianna was Professor Sex — one fourth of the iconic 90s hip-hop group, the Nasty Bitches — rapping about money, sex and her all-around glamorous lifestyle.

Today, Brianna is a proud wife and mother of five — in a stained sweatsuit who barely has a second to breathe. Not glamorous.
