“I am sooooooo excited,” Winans beams. “Somebody has finally given me the opportunity to do the shows I’ve been carrying around in my heart for years. We’re going to do a little bit of everything: fashion shows, cooking shows, children’s shows, celebrity interviews, musical performances an d videos, comedy shows, etc. You name it and we’re going to do it.”
