A horrible shame the musical is no longer on Broadway. The appropriate stunt casting possibilities is still endless... including this fabulous Belinda Carlisle bit.

A revisit to the West End's HAIRSPRAY is already on the list for this Christmas. Gotta support our Go-Go's gal.



NOTE: refrain from any 'cracks' regarding her face work. She's STILL our Belinda... just a bit tighter.

I'm right there with you, Brody. She looks great as Velma!

I also saw the Go-Go's not that long ago and her voice is still in top form as well.

I have always been a huge fan of hers, but you couldn't pay me to see Hairspray again, even with her in it.
I think it was a fun show, but it got old, just like Wicked.

One time that, on paper, stuntcasting makes sense.
If I was in London, I'd definitely go see this.
