Our reporter asked Rambo about the TV production.. she said: "I'm excited to be a part of Gospel Music Channel's Faith and Fame show. It is an honor to be considered and to share my story with people through their network. My manager Larry (Ferguson) is very excited because it's his favorite show. So in his mind.. I guess I have arrived."
