"I think she didn't expect to get emotional so that caught her off guard"
She is an actor. She was onstage. There is no such thing as getting "caught off guard."

I just pictured a drunk Alice at the 'next to normal' after party.
It was priceless.

Posted: 6/7/09 at 11:40pmI did not care for her at ALL. the Next to Normal performance was dull and dragged on forever, and I thought she was very disappointing after all the hype I had heard. As for her speech, I think my girlfriend put it best, Agonizing.

Posted: 6/7/09 at 11:45pmShe is crazy of course, but is she crazier than Betty Buckley?

Posted: 6/7/09 at 11:50pmThinking back, I honestly have NO idea what the quote said. I was too focused on Alice's manic delivery.
#37re: Alice Ripley's Speech
Posted: 6/7/09 at 11:53pmWhy is her behavior so surprising. Most actors talk like that. It is in their DNA. Most actors are manic geniuses who are like overexcited little kids...

Nobody cares about your BFA, Alice.
It was a hot mess. She was all over the place with that damned speech of hers. They should have cut her off much sooner.

Posted: 6/7/09 at 11:56pmI think I would have been disappointed if she hadn't been bizarre and overly intense. SHE. CERTAINLY. DELIVERED. ! ! !
