Could Beyonce be headed to Chicago on Broadway?

I hate to be *that guy*, but PerezHilton reported her having seen the show recently and she went backstage. She has said she doesn't plan to go back to recording until she does a Broadway show, and let's face it--the producers of Chicago probably saw that and couldn't wait to get their hands on her. Do you think she could possibly be headed to Chicago?

She would sell out her run in the show very quickly, I bet.

Do you really think someone as hot as Beyonce is and has been for years is going to be the 29608625 replacement in Chicago?

I saw the pictures on Broadway.com and... where's the picture with Beyonce AND Michelle?

OH, is Michelle in the show right now? That might make more sense. My bad.

She said she wants to SEE some broadway shows, not star in some.

Beyonce is NOT going to do a Broadway show right now. She's trying to get some film credits in. She really wants AIDA to happen...

not a chance in hell she joins Chicago. Only way she'd appear on Broadway is part of an original cast of a big NEW musical(of course, as one of the leads).

She obviously visited her friend and ex group member Michelle.

"The to-do list consists of "random things. I want to go to restaurants, maybe take a class, see some movies and Broadway shows." (Beyoncé says she would love to do a stage musical, eventually.)"

I guess I read it incorrectly a few months ago--thought she wanted to be on Broadway while on break from recording/touring. Again, my bad.

She has said she does want to do a B'way musical, but not now. She sees it as a more a steady life than the music business for having a family, she said. (She'll learn.)

And I imagine when she does one, it'll be in the first company not a replacement. A new musical? Doubt it. Those don't happen anymore.

I just remembered... didn't she announce that she is pregnant?

besides, i don't think they can afford Beyonce. can you imagine all the crap she'd demand, aside from her actual salary?
