All Grown up ::: Rudy

All grown up:

Television
child star, Keshia Knight Pulliam, 29, has certainly out grown her role
as the cute adorable Rudy Huxtable of the family sitcom, The Cosby
Show. The talented actress has made a name for herself by turning her childhood success into solid adult roles. Pulliam has gone from working
with one heavy-hitter, the legendary Bill Cosby, to another-Tyler
Perry, a film/TV/theater legend in the making. A new generation is now
enjoying her talents each week on the top-rated TBS sitcom, Tyler
Perry’s House of Payne as Miranda. “It’s wonderful to work with someone
like Tyler Perry who is an innovator in everything he’s done,” said
Pulliam. “Being such a highly acclaimed show, it was a perfect fit.”
What’s next for Pulliam? Early next year she will star in the film
Tyler Perry’s Madea Goes to Jail. Pulliam will portray a troubled
prostitute named Candy. “I was so excited to play this role. It’s so
‘out the box’ from anything that anyone has seen of me,” she said. “I
know people will be shocked because they grew up with me as a child.”
