bubbleblonde we are not saying you can't not like her, we are saying don't judge her performance until you have seen her recently or live.
I've seen her twice since she's been on Broadway, the last time being this past Sunday. Is that recent enough for you? She was, as I mentioned, as boring as ever. Her voice is great, but her acting is horrendous. It was fun watching Alli Mauzey wipe the stage with her in every way possible.

Posted: 8/12/09 at 11:58amI saw her in Chicago and she kind of made me never want to see Wicked again.

Because Dee Roscioli is just that boring that people found another way to entertain themselves.

Posted: 8/12/09 at 12:45pmI think it was a general reply to your comment... anyway I have no interest in seeing her live. I can't imagine recording devices hold a grudge against her and cause her to sound bland and appear rather boring so I don't really understand the logic. It's a very ad hominem argument.

Posted: 8/12/09 at 3:34pmAnd how f***ing dare ANYONE out there make fun of Dee, after alls she's been through. She lost her Aunt, she went through a divorce, she had two f***ing kids, her husband turned out to be a user, a cheater, and now she's going through a custidy battle. ALL YOU PEOPLE CARE ABOUT IS READERS AND MAKING MONEY OFF OF HER! SHE'S A HUMAN! What you don't realize is that Dee's making WICKED all this money and all you do is write this crap about her. She hasn't performed on stage in a year. Leave her alone! You're lucky she even performed for you B@$t@rds! LEAVE DEE ALONE! Please?

LOL.
They could put a Candied Ham in green paint and a pink tutu and roll across the stage and bring in over a million a week. In fact, Wicked has done that before. We call them Menzel and Chenoweth.

I know, right? Cuz the first thing Miss Size Of A House from Alabama think when bookin' her New Yahk City trip is spending $120 a pop for her, her husband, and all 35 of her squealing brats to see Dee Roscioli live in green person because they have been fans of hers for YEARS.
And really.. cuz you know, divorces and cheating men are such a rarity in this world.. Granted, I'm gay, so i haven't done the divorce thing myself, but a number of my close relatives have.. several times even, but cheating men? If I open that can of worms and talked about men cheating on me, it would be like the Shrek babies coming out of the woodwork in Shrek 3.

Posted: 8/12/09 at 6:53pmNickChopper you're an absolute idiot if you think that people going to see Wicked have any idea, or care who is playing a single role. 99% of the audience has no idea who the hell Dee Roscioli, Erin Mackey, or anyone else is, and they don't care. Frankly, that's one of the reasons those two women are here. They've never been on Broadway before, so they come cheaply. You're delusional if you think Roscioli is making anywhere the money that Menzel, Espinosa, Block, or Murney made.

"Um, she isn't making Wicked ANY money.."
This is the funniest thing I read on here. The show is ALWAYS sold out and the cancellation line usually has anywhere between 20-30 people in it every time.
"LOL.

Hahahahahahahahahahahahaha!

And you know this how? Did you personally ask everyone how much they make?
Why don't you stop seeing Wicked for awhile and spend all of your money paying people to stand in the rush line for you to see Next to Normal for the 100th time.

Val, I'm going to try and explain this in as simple terms as possible, because I know you're not that bright.
People who've been on Broadway before, and have originated leading roles always get more than someone making their Broadway debut. You don't have to "personally ask" anyone that. That's the way the industry works.
