'Sister Act 2' music producer reveals that Whoopi Goldberg didn't sing a key part in the film's memorable 'Oh Happy Day' performance.

Mervyn Warren said Goldberg didn't sing the iconic "la, la, la" notes at the beginning of the song, as she's helping Ryan Toby's character build confidence.Entertainment Weekly's Oscars expert, 'RuPaul's Drag Race' beat reporter, host of 'Quick Drag' Twitter Spaces, and cohost of 'EW's BINGE' podcast. Almost all of the drag content on this site is my fault .

Warren recalled director Bill Duke coming up with the idea to include a specific scene in the film using the song "Oh Happy Day," which Goldberg's Sister Mary Clarence uses to inspire a student choir when she returns in the second film."The movie was already filming, so I was in the studio, I created that, I got some of the cast members, the kids, got them in to record it. I recorded Whoopi's part as a placeholder," Warren noted.
