Sutton Foster, Sherie Rene Scott, and JLT for me.
Mostly Sutton though. Pretty much everything that she sings will work for my voice.

LOL. JG, I swear that was my answer. I typed it and deleted it.

If "crap" is a Broadway star, then I'd pick that.
The really bad ones, ya know the ones who don't make it for a call back..that would be me.
Lol.
I have no clue whatsoever.
Most things that Sherie Rene Scott or JLT sing fit pretty comfortably. Idina's acoustic stuff too...but not when she gets all RENT-ish.
I sound exactly like Betty Buckley.

Wanna come over!?
LOL, I wish! she gives me goosebumps!
Um...I guess Audra McDonald...in a never really had voice lessons so I don't know what I'm doing kind of way...
I don't really sound like her but she's the only one I can think of with a voice that really borders on opera in the same way...I kind of copied her to learn to sing. That's a part of it too. I kind of wish I really sounded half like her though.
I'm hardly a legit singer, but Julie Andrews has sort of the same style of voice as I do...light soprano, only 118128 times better. Every last one of her songs works for me.

Well... I'm able to sing like Sutton a little, a little like Kerry Butler. When I overbelt I kinda sound like Idina and not in a good way. Thats why I'm trying not to do that anymore.
One that should be silenced.
I sense a wee bit of overconfidence by a few posters on this thread - that, or a hell of a lot of talent.
Me, the best I could sound like is the Narrator from Rocky Horror.

How about inflated egos?
And Jane2 - she gives me more than goosebumps!

errrrmm...if I sounded like any of them I would be on Broadway right now.
Odd BSo that you haven't answered. From what I've heard, your similar voice is quite unique and distinct...
Harvey Fierstein
In terms of me and singing anyway...I think...well she's not on Broadway but it's a very good comparison...I sing as well as Roseanne sang the national anthem.
Stephanie D'Abruzzo.
Actually, not as good as her. But I have the same nasl type bright sound.
