Sherilyn Fenn was in contention for the role of Louise.
"Actress Sherilyn Fenn, who stars in the film Fatal Instinct and is known for her work in the series Twin Peaks along with the films Boxing Helena and Three of Hearts, has studied with Joseph for at least three years at the urging of her manager, who told her to work on her voice.
'First of all, like anything, it's something you have to practice, and sometimes I get lazy. But I find when I'm really doing the work, there's just more of an ownership of who you are, of your sound, of having the psychological understanding of how people experience you and not be afraid of it,' she said.
Fenn auditioned for a role in the television remake of Gypsy starring Bette Midler. Although she didn't get the part, she credited Joseph with coaching her enough to even try singing."

"The gods who nurse this universe think little of mortals' cares. They sit in crowds on exclusive clouds and laugh at our love affairs. I might have had a real romance if they'd given me a chance. I loved him, but he didn't love me. I wanted him, but he didn't want me. Then the gods had a spree and indulged in another whim. Now he loves me, but I don't love him." - Cole Porter
