How 'bout actual actors in some of these shows?
F**k American Idol.
"Impossible is just a big word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live in the world they've been given than to explore the power they have to change it. Impossible is not a fact. It's an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration. It's a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing.”

Posted: 5/28/08 at 12:02pmI didn't know that about David Cook. I'd actually prefer him to do Broadway than make a generic rock/pop album, because the only time I really, really loved him was when he sang MOTN on ALW week.

Yeah, I DEF think Cook would be one of the few Idols who could actually be Broadway-worthy. He grew up doing musical theater, and.. I don't know, he just strikes me as the type who'd be a really good actor! He seems like he has the emotional.. maturity and presence for it. Especially something like Roger in RENT.
And vocally he can pretty much do anything! I mean, he sounded amazing doing Music of the Night and then yet he can also turn around and do rock musicals! Pretty amazing :)
Carly certainly has the belting power for Broadway... I wonder if she can act?
I don't need a life that's normal. That's way too far away. But something next to normal would be okay. Something next to normal is what I'd like to try. Close enough to normal to get by.
