Posted: 9/8/06 at 10:27pmI was listening to Her lastest album and especially the song, "Listen" from the movie version coming of "Dreamgirls" and I reckon she would have the mean chops to tear Eplhies'song up biatch! lol. seriously her voice is amazing, maybe even if she just did a concert version....I'd be interested to hear everyones' critisim, le them flow and who thinks it may work? after all it is a very diva-pop score (-:

Posted: 9/8/06 at 10:46pmWow, I think old BWWers are getting soft. Anywho, I've never heard her REALLY belt anything. If I hear her do that then I might totally agree with you.
ThankstoPhantom

Hey, look... a loaded gun...I'm going to stick it in my mouth and pull the trigger. That sounds like a better plan than listening to Beyonce BUTCHER those songs...

Paris is good but how about Britney as Glinda instead?
Anyone remember those two creepy twin girls from The Shining? How bout we have Britney and Paris play Glinda as those evil twins?

Posted: 9/8/06 at 11:01pmDoes anyone remember the Oscar telecast from two years ago when Beyoncee sang every friggin' nominated song?

Posted: 9/8/06 at 11:03pmYes. I do. It was pretty bad. (Particularly hearing her flounder on the French song...)

Rotel1026: "Paris is good but how about Britney as Glinda instead?"
Britney is pushing it...she won't be able to do "Popular" with that accent. But Paris may have problems getting rid of "like" and "that's hot" in her vocabulary...which means, she may accidentally add that to her dialogue. Yikes.

ALW and his close cousin the wrinkled Persian monkey on the piano. Fake Phantom guy on staircase. $8,000,000,000 worth of mascara and jewelry on Beyonce. Priceless.
And you could tell the Phantom cast was thrilled that a star unrelated to the film was singing.
