after her AMZING performance in Dreamgirls, im desperate to know what shes going to do now. anyone know?

She's rediculous suddenly. She's got three films coming out in the next year. Plus she says she's eyeing the Porgy and Bess revival that's slated to come next fall. She's a busy girl. It's very wise to use this Dreamgirls momentum while it's rolling

she would be an amazing Serena in Porgy and Bess.....

How brillant is she? I was in such awe of her when I saw Dreamgirls and can't believe she's not getting more recognition from film critics ect...

The Porgy and Bess revival sounds like a great opportunity and I would probably faint if I heard her sing "summertime"!

"It's very wise to use this Dreamgirls momentum while it's rolling"

More like common sense. She's be incredibly stupid not to.

As I said to you earlier Rath: I enjoy your posts. Mainly because of the innate common sense you continually display.

Ditto.

what did Rose win a tony for, again?

[Rathnait62]

Posted: 12/26/06 at 12:31pm

For being in a show that needed to be recognized with a Tony someplace, and Featured Actress is a little-cared about category, CAROLINE OR CHANGE.

Not that she wasn't good, I just felt she wasn't the best in her category that year.

Very interesting, jazzy!

She has a few films coming out.

Rose was wonderful in Caroline or Change, but the award should have been the non-nominated Ann Harada's.

[RustyRocketteBoy]

Posted: 12/26/06 at 1:26pm

what films is she in?

[blueflame]

Posted: 12/26/06 at 2:29pm

That Ann Harada was not nominated was CRIMINAL.

[Jazzysuite82]

Posted: 12/26/06 at 2:39pm

Ann Harada winning? I don't know because I didn't see her performance. I CAN say that jennifer Westfeldt certainly did NOT deserve a nomination for her role. She barely got through the songs. Maybe Ann should have had her slot.

"She's rediculous suddenly".
*ridiculous


I admired her performance in Caroline and I believe she deserved her award. That would be magnificient if she was cast in Porgy & Bess.

I saw the Porgy & Bess revival a few weeks ago, and I think she'd be really fabulous as Clara when it transfers to Broadway.

"Rath beat me."

Namo should get that printed on a T-shirt.
