KHAN 'TERRIFIED' OF BROADWAY DEBUT

Soul veteran CHAKA KHAN is getting nervous about her impending Broadway debut. The I'm Every Woman singer, 54, is set to appear in the stage adaptation of Alice Walker's Pulitzer Prize-winning novel The Color Purple early next year (09Jan08). Khan will play Sophia in the eagerly awaited production, a role previously tackled by heavyweight talk show queen Oprah Winfrey in Steven Spielberg's 1985 take on the novel. She says, "It's exciting and scary at the same time."
