I don't think anyone can honestly think Britney would act the role better than Christina who is a versatile/well trained Emmy winning actress.

Britney is a Grammy winning artist. Does that mean she's a fabulous singer? No. And really, for Christina, that Emmy doesn't validate a whole lot either.

You know... they could have a LOT of fun with this. They could rework the whole show to work for Britney and K Fed.

For example... "I'm a Brass Band." The ensemble outfits would have to be changed to match the new 'mood.' Britney's had sexy schoolgirls and sexy flight attendants in her videos, I'm sure we can find a place for some sexy marching band geeks! And I'm positive no one will mind seeing scissors taken to those costumes. *shudder*

This also provides an excellent oppurtunity to throw away that choreography and start from scratch - because what they've got now does not provide Britney with nearly enough oppurtunities to touch her boobs. To make up for this, the new choreography for 'There's Gotta Be Something Better than This' is going to be solely Britney's signature 'boob-rotation' move. There ain't NOTHING better than that!

Oh, and Oscar? Psssh. Neurotic accountant no more! Let's try neurotic rap star. Those not interested in seeing Britney on stage will certainly fork over $100 to see Denis O'Hare in a doo rag. Worrrrd up.

There will also be many oppurtunities to incoporate some old Britney classics into this - let's face it - rather trite and boring score. Audiences will get a lift when Britney performs 'I'm A Slave 4 U' to the character of Leonardo DiCaprio (yeah... it was felt that theatregoers just couldn't "connect" to Vittorio Vidal.) Of course Britney will perform the heartwrenching 'Not a Girl (Not Yet a Woman)' during a scene at the Fandango ballroom where she questions herself, her life, and her breasts. And 'Oops! I Did It Again' will replace the 'I'm the Bravest Individual' scene, and will be sung after Charity farts in the elevator.

IT'S BRILLIANT!




(Disclaimer: EVERYTHING in the above was COMPLETE AND UTTER SARCASM - in case you didn't notice. I do NOT want Britney to come to Broadway. Thank you for your time.)

EVERY single review of Charity all recognized that Christina is a great actress and really did a great job with the acting. But this isn't a Britney vs Christina thread.

Point blank, Britney is WAY too young. The amazing, unbeatable, and legendary Gwen Verdon was in her 40's when she created this role.

If you know about the show. Charity is a character that has been around the block.

I have more issue with her classless husband being in the chorus than her being in the show.

Now Bobby, who said everyone on Broadway is classy?? Broadway has got its share of coke addicts too!!! :)

[Rathnait62]

Posted: 11/18/05 at 7:01pm

Bobby, maybe she's interested just for that reason - so that K-Fed actually has his own income!

[BobbyBubby]

Federline redefines classless though.

I think people should wait to pass judgements until it actually happens. If it happens, maybe Britney would surprise everyone and be really good... I know a lot of people are probably trying to figure out ways to throw things at me through their computers for saying that, but oh well. I mean, Britney started off-Broadway, then did Mickey Mouse Club. Just because her albums have lackluster songs that are WAY overproduced doesn't mean she couldn't shock the hell out of people and actually be decent.

I think the bigger issue is that she's completely wrong, and too young for the part.

[tagiunagi]

I think K-Fed is classless enough to play the whoreshop owner. (Oh, Geez, I forget the character's name!!)

Best Dance Song for "Toxic." All machine, baby.

[Rathnait62]

Posted: 11/18/05 at 7:05pm

That is one great song, though.

[tagiunagi]

Posted: 11/18/05 at 7:06pm

No matter what anyone thinks of Britney, EVERYONE loves some Toxic!!!

[Rathnait62]

Posted: 11/18/05 at 7:07pm

They need to find a way to fit it into CHARITY.

[BobbyBubby]

Posted: 11/18/05 at 7:07pm

I agree, Toxic is a good song.

damn it, why did you have to get her pregnant, BEn?!

if they needed a 'star' to replace Christina, jennifer garner would have been perfect!

[Rathnait62]

Posted: 11/18/05 at 7:18pm

She's way too young too.

I happen to agree with Munk.

If they can pay for Brit, they can pay for Sarah Jessica Parker.

Now she deserves this role!

[Rathnait62]

Posted: 11/18/05 at 7:31pm

Parker can't sing either.

Is this a joke? Even if it is, this is something I would definitely see.
