She was a judge for their talent show. Did she perform? She was in costume. I just saw the last 20 minutes.

I think she's got an amazing voice!

She is PERFECT for the soloist in Rent! Does she also play the bag lady?

Yep, she does the Bag Lady too.
And my honest opinion is that her solo is wonderful, although not nearly as "riffy" as some other soloists have done. I really expected her to belt her toes off, but she doesn't. She does a really nice job though.

Her Bag Lady is not nearly angry enough in my opinion, but she holds her own up there.

Frenchie Davis would be an awesome Tracy Turnblad!

Hmm...somehow I don't think that to work very well...her as Tracy. There's some reason, I just can't recall it right now...

Can't you just see Frenchie tied to the baed as Seweed cuts her free and she belts out the "And now I've tasted chocolate..." line!
