Singer, Janelle Monae has got her eyes set on conquering Hollywood like she’s conquered the music industry. We know this because in the last few months, the songstress has been cast in no less that three screenplays. Most recent of all is her new role in new Disney‘s live-action adaptation Lady and the Tramp.

According to Chicago Tribune, Monae will voice the character Peg, one of the dogs Lady meets when she is taken to the pound.
