Boutte1. What’s new/next Denise Boutte?
Where do I start? LOL!
Get Ready to Tune In... “For the Love of Ruth” Re-airs
Sunday, June 7th (check your local listings for times) on
TV-One! The film is inspired by the Biblical story of
Ruth that at its core, is a quintessential story of love,
commitment and loyalty. Denise Boutté (Meet The
Browns) stars as Ruth, an orphan who was in search of
her place in a lonely world, until Naomi Marachond –
played by Loretta Devine (Grey’s Anatomy) –enters
her life and provides the guidance and warmth
she’s been seeking. Rounding out the cast are
James Pickens Jr. (Grey’s Anatomy) in the role of
Stephen Marachond, Naomi’s sullen brother-
in law and Gary Dourdan (CSI) as Braxton
Marachond, damaged isolated cousin
Ruth’s love interest. So Loved portraying
this character! Wasn’t about the hair, the
makeup, the wardrobe but was strictly
a dramatic, character-driven role that I
had to believably ground and bring to
life. So love comedic roles but this a
wonderful opportunity to so range
10 Questions with
Denise
and chops. I’m no One-Trick Pony, LOL!
“The BounceBack” hits Theaters this Fall! I play
the x-wife, to Shemar Moore’s character, Matthew
Taylor, a relationship guru with a best selling book.
He’s on a whirlwind promotional tour, when he
meets a fellow relationship expert, portrayed by
Nadine Velazquez, who thinks he’s nothing more
than a charlatan. Their professional rivalry gets
complicated when they unexpectedly fall in love.
The Choir Director: Part two of “the Preacher’s
Son”... Bishop T.K.Wilson has done all he can to
make First Jamaica Ministries a success, but with
his last choir director getting caught in a scandal,
attendance and cash flow are down. The Bishop is
now counting on a new choir director to revive the
church. Little does he know, this decision may also
put his job as Bishop in jeopardy; as well as the
lives of his family.
I also have a Cookbook, Seasoning Blends and
a new episodes of my Cooking show, “Denise’s
Dish” on deck!

2. Why do you love acting?
The freedom of expression and creativity. It’s
especially fun to portray the Bad Girl Antagonist
because when the Director yells cut, and you
leave set, there are no consequences and I can
return to the cozy, comfort of home.
3. You look great! How do you do it?
Well first and foremost... Thank You! I’ve never
been much on gyms so whatever I can do to
be outside, enjoying the California sun, I’m
so there... Biking, hiking, tennis, jogging, you
name it!
Confession time... I find modern day’s obsession
with derriere’s pretty Hilarious! In high school,
I used to pray that gravity would take over and
drop that puppy but with a name like Boutte,
guess I have no choice, than to do it justice. Lol!
4. How does YOUR starring role in TV
One “For The Love of Ruth” impact your
life today?
“For the Love of Ruth” is an endearing story
that everyone can relate to, about the journey
through the peaks and valleys of life. I saw
the story as a humanized, more modernized
Biblical-based story of Compassion,
Commitment and Resilience. From a career
perspective, it’s significant to me, in that it’s not
about the hair, makeup, wardrobe... It’s my most
Character-driven, Dramatic role to-date and
shows that this girl has range and chops ;-)
5. What advice do you have for
young people?
To adopt the phrase “Why Not Me?” Wake up,
every morning with a purpose, Your purpose,
no one else’s and create a vision board that you
can reflect on, to motivate you, every day.
“From a career perspective, it’s

“To journey through life in true
Happiness, Peace, Health and
Prosperity, with the Family and
Friends I Love and are True, by
my side, every step of the way.”
-Denise Boutte
6. What dreams do you have?
To journey through life in true
Happiness, Peace, Health and
Prosperity, with the Family and
Friends I Love and are True, by my
side, every step of the way.
Everything else is icing on the cake
and on the vision board, wheels
already in motion. Stay Tuned!
7. What have been some of your
favorite roles?
Trina from “Why Did I Get Married”
is still tops on the list. That role came
at a time when I was so new to LA,
the world of acting... I mean, to be
Blessed with the opportunity to work
alongside the likes of Janet Jackson,
Jill Scott, Tyler Perry himself, folks
who’s work I’d admired, far before
the decision to pursue acting even
entered my mind?!?!? I still pinch
myself. My role as Simone Wilcox in
the upcoming Carl Weber film, “The
Choir Director” is certainly going to
get people talking. Put it this way...
Simone makes Trina, look like
a Saint! LOL!
