lol, I really thought she would get a nom because she's freakin' ELAINE PAIGE and she's in her 60's and who knows if she will be on Broadway again since this was like her 1st time originating a role in anything.
at least it shows that they won't do that kind of thing (same for Angela Lansbury) unless you truly deserve it. Elaine did nothing special in Follies IMO while Jayne Houdyshell really made 'Broadway Baby' her own which is hard to do for such a well known song. (plus didn't she join the show kind of last minute? that's impressive as well. :)

Elaine Pagels was robbed! She should have been a finalist for a Pulitzer for her book "Revelations: Visions, Prophecy, and Politics in the Book of Revelation."
Ellen Page was robbed. She didn't even do a play this year!

Magellan was robbed! The never do those "gellin" commercials anymore!
I heard he never even got royalties on those to begin with. So he was literally robbed.

Elaine Stritch was robbed because she was The First Elaine of the American Musical Theater until shorty showed up. But Stritch had the last laugh because she was the star of a British sitcom.
I thought she was robbed of her robe!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I liked Elaine but I wasn;t blown over by her, I was blown over by Jayne Houdeyshel and am very glad she WAS nominated. I hope Jayne wins
Loved Jayne too but if Judy Kaye doesn't win that will truly be a robbery.
Sorry Kevin, but all I saw from that post was that you were blown by Jayne Houdyshell.
I was not blown by Elaine Paige.
Thought she was miscast and awful in Follies.
She can keep her robe.
Not saying she is bad. Just bad in Follies.
Elaine Benes was robbed. She was the best part of that show.

Was that written in blank verse or something?

I wanted to run from the theata
Elaine Paige prefers ribbed?
How vivid!
