What to Watch This Weekend: Michaela DePrince on NBC

July 13, 2017

We can’t get enough of Dutch National Ballet soloist Michaela DePrince. Her inspiring journey from an orphanage in war-torn Sierra Leone to the international stage has garnered her attention from outside the ballet world, too. DePrince recently starred in a Beyoncé music video, was named a Jockey spokesmodel, and up next, she’ll appear on a special segment of NBC’s “Sunday Night with Megyn Kelly.”

NBC news correspondent Kate Snow sat down with DePrince in an emotional interview, which airs this Sunday, July 16 at 7pm ET. Discussing everything from her heartbreaking childhood to the moment she came across a cover of Dance Magazine and decided her future, the special also features exclusive rehearsal footage and clips of DePrince performing with DNB that you don’t want to miss!
