Javert: Zsah-vair, it's pronounced Zsah-vair.
Pecry: But it's spelled J-A-V-E-R-T Javvurt.
Javert: Repeat after me Zsah...Zsah....
Percy: Oh! Zsa-Zsa! Like the Gabor sister! Well I personally have always prefered Eva.
Javert: (Looks for gun)

Patti should have won, hands down. I am so, so disappointed. I saw TCP, I found LaChanze to be little more than glorified set dressing (sorry to those in the LaChanze camp, I'm so not a fan at all).
Nonetheless, in spite of my opinions and slight bitterness, I congratulate her on her win.

Haha NYC4Life--that made me laugh.
I am SOOOOOOO happy for her. Her performance truly deserved a Tony. The transformation she makes in that show is mindblowing. Where did she get her training?
#31re: GO LaCHANZE !!!
Posted: 6/11/06 at 11:16pmI love LaChanze and I'm so happy for her that she won =)

Posted: 6/11/06 at 11:17pmdiva from hell wackjack??? i disagree. patti is amazingly talented, and definitely deserved the tony for her lovett. lachanze is talented but has a way to go until she reaches lupone.

Posted: 6/11/06 at 11:18pmSurprised yet very proud for her. I'm so glad she won the Tony, she most definatly deserved it.
#34re: GO LaCHANZE !!!
Posted: 6/11/06 at 11:29pmShe was the true underdog in this catergory, I was on the phone when they were announcing her name...and I almost screamed into a friend's ear. I'm totally happy for LaChanze! She carries TCP and rises above it's flaws. So many people discounted her or tried to place her up there with Patti. Patti Lupone is a legend, has earned the right be a diva, and will always be iconic while LaChanze may not reach that level of popularity, she has always been a class act in terms of character, performance, and spirit. Congratulations to her for her Tony win because the way this night was going who knows.

What a preformance she totally deserved it.
Worded Grace i totally echo your comments
#36re: GO LaCHANZE !!!
Posted: 6/11/06 at 11:36pmi'm very happy for her! It's so great to see the emotion and excitment in her.
A dancer might dream to see her name in lights and mean it,
but all she really dreams is to make someone
else feel the way she did when she first saw a dancer.
And that is so beautiful-Anonymous

Posted: 6/11/06 at 11:37pmLaChanze went to UArts majoring in dance/theater. She definitely deserved the Tony. She gave a raw, emotional and star-making performance, just like Patti did with Evita.

I'm sure LaChanze will never become another Lupone. She's too nice.

Well Patti Lupone butchered the role of Mrs. Lovett
She should just stay with doing Evita until she dies
She's amazing dont get me wrong
But Patti is not Mrs. Lovett

Posted: 6/12/06 at 12:21amThis is the one acting awars Sweeney didn't win that I'm okay with. My preference was Patti, but I'm okay with LaChanze. What a voice.
