William Hung will be making his Broadway Debut in 2005 in 'Phantom of the Opera'!

in addition to his newly released Xmas Cd titled 'Hung for the Holidays' not kidding that is the name of it, you can also Look forward to hearing William Hung sing your favorite songs from one of the best Musicals 'Phantom of the Opera'!

i'm sure William will put his own Interpretation on these wonderful songs!
He has not yet said if he will be incorporating the "She Bang' move he made soo famous on that show we all love to hate American idol! lol

Hungs Xmas CD is out in stores i believe in Nov. so have yourself a Merry little Hung Xmas! LOL>>

I did not expect Hung to be casted in Phantom, but it should make an interesting show to say the least! lol...

did you read that on the same site that had a few people convinced Hung had died of a drug overdose this summer? i don't believe any rumors concerning WH unless Fox News confirms it.

Oh please. This isn't remotely worthy of discussion.

it's worth the reply, if only as a service to the gullible among us. wisely, no one will admit to it, but I promise you there are people who read that post and called their friends to share the news.

Casting William Hung as the Phantom...that means Wing would have to be Christine...

hi broadwaymatt..i missed ya! lol

well, william hungs Xmas Cd is very true and it really is called 'Hung for Xmas' i seen the album cover also on TV !

i just heard this rumor and so i really don't know if it is true or not, but with all the american idols hitting broadway it is just a matter of time that William Hung will also try to Diversify his Fame into a Broadway stint! ?

i guess we have to wait and see where William shows up next! either Broadway for Vegas seems to be the logical choice for Mr. Hung! ?

Are Florence Foster Jenkins or Mrs. Miller still alive?

hi jj, it's been awhile it's true. glad you haven't been scared off by the Good Vibrations backlash.

and I would not put it beyond Broadway to put Hung in something, but Phantom in NY has a very good track record with avoiding any kind of stunt casting. None of this Paul Stanley BS like in Canada.

well he does sing better than britney spears and jlo. those stars lipsynch and use technology to alter their voices.
he sings with ummm
raw emotion.

This will be on the same day that the Dance of the Vampires revival begins at the Winter Garden, right?

thanks Broadwaymatt...you are such a sweetie! i'm still around gotta love broadway lot's of action!

well maybe it's not Phantom and some other show William Hung is in? i heard it was Phantom, but that rumor could be wrong and it might be some other show!

Hung is quite funny, so he might make a good character in how about Miss Siagon? or i would like to see Hung in 'River dance' !LOL>> haha!

Is anyone getting Hungs Xmas Cd? I have to admitt that might be very funny to hear his sing Xmas songs! LOL>> I did not get his other Cd though! lol

I can only Imagine that Hungs Next CD Project will be Broadway songs ! Titled the Best of Broadway by Hung! LOL>>

Good Vibrations will Look like Shakespere Next to Hung in Momma Mia or Le Miserable? lol...

so would anyone Buy Hungs Cd of the Best of Broadway song book?

let me know how his Xmas Cd is i bet it's Quite funny!

JJ...was the whole Justin Guarini shilling debacle not enough? Now we get to hear about another American Idol loser...this time in an even more implausible situation...seriously...go back to the AI message boards...

[JJsugar]

Posted: 10/24/04 at 10:26pm

Mr. Hung is more famous then most the aspiring actors on this board i would not classify him as a loser, but a very smart business man! lol.. as for justin guarini he has made out quite well actually!

[broadwaybound3]

Posted: 10/24/04 at 10:31pm

haha- good one ljay- and as for JJsugar- yes... he did use his talents, or more like lack of talents, to get him far. Its kind of sad to think about it. All of those very talented kids struggling to get a shot in NY- and this man gets a record label. The world we live in today.

I'd believe you telling me William Hung is going to be the next POTO before you could convince me that Justin Guarini has made out quite well. Whether or not he deserved the slams, quite well, he is not.

[broadwaybound3]

i think the only person on that show that made out at least the slightest bit for the good was Kelly Clarkson. Which only lasted for about a year.

I'd rather hear Britney attempt Elphaba than listen to Hung sing Happy Birthday.

not sure why the justin haters on here, but he got great reviews for GV at Vassar college and he had over 5 million people vote for him to be runner up in american idol... to say he has no talent is like saying you don't need air to breathe!

this thread is about this rumor about william hung and i guess no one knows anymore about this!
