This makes me think that Diana DeGarmo isn't doing Hair:

"Hey y'all, check me out tomorrown morning LIVE from Nashville on MSNBC @ 10AM, EST talkin about Idol!"

Just like any other job...if she had a prior commitment BEFORE she was offered the job, they make arrangements. (I'm not saying she is or isn't in the new Hair cast...I'm only talking generalities.)

Doesn't she live in Nashville? Maybe she wants to announce the news on a "home town" station.

I don't think she's announcing anything about Hair. She usually does a few interviews, both tv and print, around the time American Idol starts up each season. She probably won't say anything specific about Hair until the show's producers send out the official cast announcement.

Diana has a February 12th commitment in St. Louis, at a fundraising event for Haiti. She'll be back in NYC Saturday.

Plus, Jay Armstrong Johnson was twittering about "Diana" coming to the NYC. Could be her or someone else, but just saying.

Diana also said this on twitter today which I found interesting: "changing my hair color YET AGAIN! But it's for a good reason " She also told someone "I'll be back in the city this weekend so don't you fret "

Diana is going to be in Hair. The role? I have yet to hear.

Brodway Boy has posted under Rialto thread that Jeannie has already been cast and it isn't Diana Degarmo so Diana must be Sheila.I'm waiting for the confirmation.

Is it going to be an entirely new cast? Is the entire original cast going to London or has that fallen through? Sorry, I haven't been keeping up...

Good for Diana! I'll definitely go see Hair again for her!

Josh Lamon is staying, but switching roles, I believe.

[rmusic11322]

^ Is he getting an upgrade on casting? I hope so becuase I saw him as Boq on the Wicked tour and thought he was amazing!

Joah Lamon is getting promoted to either Margeret Mead or Theo's tribe track. I forgot which. :/

[Bud1990]

He's the new Margaret Mead. He's already been in Teho tribe track since August at some point I believe.
