yeah legally blondes airline is jetblue, but i guess they can take it since jason patrick sands was orginal ensemble member in the show. forgot mario...i am looking forward to seeing jason. i feel mario just got casted because of dwts and he needs a carreer boost and plus the rest of the cast busted their asses to get to where they are. i hope dwts switches from la to nyc so we can all go. i am praying the three billys perform electricity on the next season of the show if they have one. its advertisement for acl broadway plus the tour and also for broadway spotlight.
in the photos it didnt like jps looked happy about mario in the cast.

Posted: 5/6/08 at 9:33pmI can't believe Mario is falling behind in the choreography in I hope I get it. Of course the rest of the cast nailed it as they all have been doing for quite some time before Mario came aboard. But, it saddens me that he can't do the entire thing with the rest of the cast.

I really enjoyed watching the cast of "A Chorus Line" on DWTS. It was fun watching everyone strutting their stuff and giving a great perf. I must admit that I couldn't take my eyes away from Nick Adams. Mario Lopez is o.k. looking, but Nick had the edge in that dept., not to mention dancing ability. from RC in Austin, Texas

I lowered my voice and said 'Hotel detective. Have you got a gentleman in your room?' He answered, 'Just a minute, I'll ask him.'" (Beatrice Lillie)

Or Natalie Cortez, Dottie
Did they film this yesterday? It makes sense because it didn't seem live. Tom didn't come over to talk to Mario or the rest of the cast, like hosts normally do on when casts appear on TV.

Posted: 5/6/08 at 9:37pmNick was AMAZING!!!!!!! I couldn't take my eyes off him! And everyone else was great too!(except Mario)

Could Nick Adams' arms get any bigger?
Except for his his extention, Mario did a lot better than I thought he would.

Mario Lopez looked rather awkward and uncomfortable.
And why didn't they wear the golden costume? I think that's more suitable.

My Life, I believe they taped this a couple of weeks ago.
You're right about Natalie.

Posted: 5/6/08 at 9:43pmI think they filmed this a week or two ago. I noticed 4 people were understudies. Michelle Aravena for Diana. Lyndy for Kristine. Mike Cannon for Al. Jessica Lea Patty for Cassie.

Posted: 5/6/08 at 9:43pmis it really supposed to be this slow? Why do I think that its slow...

No Katherine, either.
That... wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. Mario wasn't horrible, but he needs to step it up. He looks awkward and he needs to work on the choreography some more. And what was with the weird count off? I'm probably the only one but he sounded kind of strange.

Posted: 5/6/08 at 9:53pmI am very surprised that Marissa has just made it to the quarter finals. I'm not saying that she's not doing well in the competition dancing wise, but she doesn't have a huge fan base compared to Kristi or Mario (well, at least when the show began).

Posted: 5/6/08 at 9:56pmI'm pretty sure it was live, but I could be wrong.
