Toni Braxton, Kenny ‘Babyface’ Edmonds in first Broadway show

They have 16 Grammys between them. And now Toni Braxton and Kenny ‘‘Babyface’’ Edmonds are sharing the Broadway stage together.
The dynamic vocalists hit the Great White Way to begin their turn as headliners of the musical “After Midnight” in New York on Tuesday.

The 46-year-old actress/singer looked stunning in a white gown with capped sleeves, lace gloves and white shoes. Her hair was styled akin to the look typical of the ‘30s and accented with a white rose on one side.

She wore bright red lipstick and could be seen belting out numbers as she threw her arms in the arm.

Toni’s 54-year-old co-star looked positively dapper in a crisp white suit with a silver bow tie.

While this is Kenny’s Broadway debut, Toni has previously appeared in Disney’s “Beauty And The Beast” in 1998 and then again in the 2003 production of Aida.

“After Midnight” is produced by Scott Sanders and Wynton Marsalis, and celebrates Duke Ellington’s years at Harlem’s famed Cotton Club during the 1930s.

Last month, Toni and Babyface released an album of duets entitled “Love, Marriage & Divorce”.

The duo first collaborated on Braxton’s self-titled debut album in 1993, which Babyface produced.

Earlier this year, Toni also announced the release of “Unbreak My Heart: A Memoir” set to hit stores on May 20.

It’s an exciting change of affairs for the star, who declared bankruptcy for the second time in her career a little over six months ago.

Toni and Babyface will continue their performances in “After Midnight” until March 30, after which singer/actress Vanessa Williams will take over. — Daily Mail.
