Not an official quote, but the way Patti LuPone said "Bobby" when presenting Company.

BOBBY!

I agree Priest.

And Julie White's whole speech.

Loved how Patti said Bobby. And White's and Wilson's speech. Fabulous!

Wilson and White by far. I also love how Patti's BOBBY reminded me of how much there needs to be a Whitney Houston musical on broadway

Wilson's speech was grteat as was white but being such a SA fan i loved when Gallager Jr said to quote his moritz: this is what heaven must feel like. That was so true and nice I felt good.

Julie White definitely. Whackos.

And favorite moment: Idina and Taye's reaction to Fantasia's performance.

^ WAIT! When did Patti say that!?!?

[MovieGuy1031]

Posted: 6/10/07 at 11:33pm

My absolute favorite was Mary Louise Wilson's scream.

...it kind of reminded me of Howard Dean, in a way.

But coming in a close second was David Hyde Pierce's (Although Raul should have been giving a speech at that point...) comment about Jonathan Groff!

haha i agree, my favorite moment was seeing taye and idina's reactions to fantasia's performance.

and, how can you end such a beautiful song with "YEAAAH YEAH!!"

[MissPB]

Posted: 6/11/07 at 12:49am

Taye actually mouthed "phenomenal"....

And then Julie:

"“To be nominated with such extraordinary women — I never imagined I would be on a list like this unless it was for dinner reservations at Angus!"

COME BACK TO BROADWAY!!!

Why do people on here repeatedly think that Idina and Taye were horrified by Fantasia's performance? Anyone with 2 eyes and a brain can see that they were bowled over by her. Totally impressed.

What is Stephen Sater on? No wonder he can't write lyrics...he's absolutely insane or on something.

I love Julie White. I had a heart palpitation when Sater gave a Guilty Ones shout out.

Why?

And favorite moment: Idina and Taye's reaction to Fantasia's performance.

That made my life. Gah, so many great moments.

Steven Sater does seem a little crazy, but he made me tear up a little.

When everyone was thanking "Ira" I kept thinking "Why is everyone thanking Ira Gershwin?" Haha. And then I realized who it was.

Why did it make your life? They were amazed by her.

Watch again. Look what word Taye mouths. Please.
