It wasn't a made-up Perez story, he has a link to the Sweden newspaper Afton Bladet.

I love Liza too, but this would explain why there hasn't been follow-up news to her “illness”. I have been scouring the news every since the fall for something. And I saw the clip too, which has now been yanked off You tube, why did she need to be held up on stage. Even Marie Osmond gave us a little curtsey after she got up off the floor.

Travolta was honored last week at a party thrown by Bernadette Peters and Glenn Close to toast John Travolta's star turn as Edna Turnblad in the film version of "Hairspray" - for which he just received a Golden Globe nomination. Read more here for who else was there and why the article ended with the line "Those Broadway people can be such bitches." http://www.nydailynews.com/gossip/2007/12/19/2007-12-19_john_travoltas_brush_with_broadway_.html

She is funny, she doesn't take her self seriously, she's a real professional, I would love to see her in Wicked.

seriously I knew what the link was, but my posts have been deleted and I thought it was because of the links to outside sources.

Ok since my postings about Sutton Foster keep getting deleted, it must be because I am doing some copyright infringement. So I will just mention that if you read michael riedel's column in the NY Post,you can read about how the producers were thinking of having Robin Williams or Alec Baldwin play the Griffith's part, until Radcliff say he wasn't going to Broadway without Griffith.

Before the strike, my entertainment calendar, which is provided by the photo agency, stated that everyone that was ever involved in the production was supposed to return for the celebration.

My NY Times, which arrived yesterday, states 12/30. I wish it ended in Jan. I can't stand going to NYC during December with the crowds.

It's a little late, but heres a recap from the scene. My friend Sarah got there at 6am to wait for tickets. https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=19747701&postID=5604199848031811187&pli=1

Do you think Patti Lupone will go to the premiere on Monday? I imagine Michael Cerveris will attend, Johnny Depp praised his performance.

Perez Hilton had a video thank you on his site Thursday. He thanked Idina for being so trusting that she can leave her hot Taye in Hollywood for long periods because she trusts him so much.

Barbara Walters recently said the key to her success is that she doesn't sweat, nor pee for up to 12 hours. (Such a class act - LOL)

Who's taking care of her 80 kids?

If you're in NYC, the Film Society of Lincoln Center will screen some Sweeney Todd clips as part of an evening with Tim Burton at 8 PM on Wednesday, November 14 at the Rose Theater at Jazz at Lincoln Center. For ticket info, go to Film at Lincoln Center.

I wish I had worded the title differently, traditionally or ritually would have made a better dialog. Like what kinds of rituals do people do before they go on stage? Oh well.

I imagine a lot of actors/actresses have to kiss the director to get their jobs, what's your experience?

Is it common for the Playwrite or a director to kiss the stage for good luck at the start of the run of their show, as Terence McNally did when he kissed the stage of the Suzanne Roberts Stage in Philly? http://hughe2030.blogspot.com/

You might not recognize the name, Suzanne Roberts, but her husband owns Comcast Cable. So basically if you have Comcast, you funded this theater.

I'm a bit tardy posting these shots of last weeks broadway stars at the opening of Philly's new theater which honored Terrence McNally. Is it common for the Playwrite or a director to kiss the stage for good luck? http://hughe2030.blogspot.com/2007/10/terrence-mcnally-christens-suzanne.html

I saw the show Opening Night on Tuesday and thought it was terrific, especially the part which was choreographed with them in rolling chairs. That was amazing. They seemed to really enjoy that part too. I got goosebumps when she sang "Don'T Cry For Me Argentina". I attended the after party, and only Mandy Patinkin and the band attended. One of the theater people told me that Patti was indifferent and said not to expect her at the party, peculiar he said. She's not really into talking with the...
