Tiff, there's a thread on the main board called "Rosario Dawson as Mimi" or something similar to that.
::hands Emcee drool bucket::
Thanks #1Elphie! I just found it, and I'm excited because I worked with Rosario in Josie & The Pussycats and she's such a doll! (Also, I'm about 90% sure that she didn't do her own singing in the movie, except for a bit of backup singing. Not that she'll be bad as Mimi, I'm just sayin'. This comment would probably be better served on the Rosario thread, but frankly, I'm scared away from Rent threads all together now!)
Adam love!
Wow you know what I just realized?
The high riff in "I'm With You" is stolen from "Which Way to Nowhere." I knew I'd heard it somewhere before. Listen and tell me what you think.
Well he can't steal from himself. He's just borrowing.
And Emcee loves Adam's falsetto.
So does NTG. She just feels dumb cuz it took her so long to realize.
She's also scared that she's talking about herself in third person.
::hides from Tiff::
Fee fi fo fum! Tiff has a grudge against people who talk in the third person!
::is still hiding::
Emcee made me do it!
And I'll huff, and I'll puff, and I'll---
Oh, wait. Different fairytale.
Fee fi fo---
Aww, F*CK it. Emcee, show yourself. Type_A_Tiff will let you die with honour!
<-- is very sorry.
I promise!
NOOOOO!
::throws self in front of Emcee::
I WON'T LET HER DIE!!!
*throws unidentified plasticware at the raging Type_A_Tiff*
::cracks up::
I know this is the 'Adam Love' thread but I'm just curious of people's opinions without starting a world war, so I'm not starting a new thread. How do you think Idina will get along with the new Joanne? She's built up quite an ego with Wicked and all... I'm just wondering how you think that will work out in Rent. Of course, being a drama queen/diva doesn't really contradict Maureen's character. I don't know, I was just thinking about how I would not want to be the newbie playing Joanne, no matter how good I was, because that would mean singing and acting and kissing/whatever else is in the script to add to the fact that they are lesbian with Idina. Do you think having been in Wicked will change how she portrays Maureen or how she acts around the other cast members?
If Idina really is a diva, I'd imagine she'd want a crappier Joanne so she herself would look the better of the two.
And Emcee, you SO did not just make a spork reference and expect me to give you mercy!!
Well, I think it's not really our place to say, since we don't *know* Idina. Personally, I don't think she's a diva - I think she's very shy and very humble. But, that's just me and my rose colored glass, maybe. Anyway, I think the same can be said in general about mixing these newbies with people who are arguably the ideal portrayals of these characters. I mean, Adam has an ego that's probably bigger than Idina's... he might react that way, too. Or, he might not. If we're wondering this, I'm not sure it should just be limited to Idina, but honestly, if they've al accepted the offers, they're probably willing to be open to new people.... or at least I'd hope so.
We interrupt your regularly scheduled programming to offer this little update of my fic:
Oh and incidentally...I'm a legend.
Chapter 5
I'm out guys...good night.
'If we're wondering this, I'm not sure it should just be limited to Idina'
well the Angel/Collins pair is the same (or at least it appears so) Wilson hasn't accepted yet has he? And we sort of already discussed the Pascal/Rosario relationship... nevermind. Back to the war against people who speak in 3rd person
And yay for NotThatGirl! Broadway Legend AND more fanfic!
Yeah, I don't think Wilson's accepted yet. Evelyn posted a clip from Variety on the Rosario thread and it says he's "still in talks".
lol, Glory - what I meant by that was just in general, not necessarily just within love interest pairs. I was thinking that the general vibe might be a little awkward for the newbies...
Oh ok... sorry it's been a long day :-b. Anyways yea I'm hoping that everyone will get along well. I guess as long as they have the talent they will at least be respected as performers. Even if they all hit it off as friends it won't be the same as back in 1996. Whatever. I'm just looking forward to watching this new person sing Out Tonight, even though Tiff sort of made it seem like she can't sinf... oh well I'm still excited and I know I'm getting way ahead of myself, but I seriously can't wait for the new recording. I'm really hoping that this time around they are about to get the 'rock concert feel' they were hoping for.
Well, Rosario might be able to sing but I didn't think she sang vocals on JatP. But I just read Variety and apparently she did. (I'm still a bit skeptical though.)
Give Emcee a minute - she's having an orgasmic experience with an audio I just sent her. (Yours is on its way soon!)
