I Heart Rosario Dawson

"and um I bought the soundtrack because of her"

You bought it already? From where?

Basic reading tells me that the poster meant the Josie... soundtrack.

I heart Rosario too.

Josie and the Pussycats was sung by the lead singer of Letters to Chleo.. If Rosario sang at all it was on backround vocals..

yeah she did backup vocals. but still she is amazing

Heh, good, I'm not the only weirdo out there with the Josie and the PUssycats soundtrack.

And I like Rosario Dawson. I never thought of her really as a individual actress until recently, but I've usually always liked her work. That sounds weird, I know, but it's like I've enjoyed her performances in movies, without then seeking out other movies she's been in, I just stumble upon them from time to time.

I always end up crying at weird points in movies with her as well, like one of her last scene's in Sidewalks of New York, where she's at the other guy's building and trying to find his buzzer. Yeah, I know I'm weird.

She's probably one of the most adorable people I've ever seen! She's so cute, I'm not so sure what I think yet about her voice, I'm undecided on that factor, BUT I LOVE HER TO DEATH!

I'mm 99.9% positive Rosario does her own singing for RENT. Where did you hear someone else does it for her?

I quite like her voice actually.

psh. She definitely did her own singing -- we can speculate at will about edits and studio assistance, but that's her.

I like her! She gives out cookies -- I mean, come on.

Somebody to me who heard if from somebody else who over heard it quite by accident, so I know it's true.

I don't know where I heard it I just did. I am apt to believe it too considering what I thought of her performance in Two Gentlemen of Verona.

Rosario Dawson has to be one of the most down to earth celebrities out there. Fame has not gone to her head. Here's a girl who at 15 was discovered sitting in the front stoop of her East Village squat to be in a movie. That movie was Larry Clark's controversial film, KIDS.

Fast forward 10 years later and Rosario (until recently) still kept her apartment in that same East Village tenement when most others would have been lone gone. She's never lost sight of where she's come from and stays true to her roots.

Mimi in RENT is by far her best role yet. I tink this will be the one to put her *over the top* and she couldn't have been more right for the role.

Rosario also always stays true to her New York City roots by starring in films set in and around the city, from KIDS to SIDE STREETS to SIDEWALKS OF NEW YORK to CHELSEA WALLS and now RENT.

As a New Yorker and most importantly as a Nuyorican I am extremely proud that she's up there "representing". She's come a long way and she has so much more ahead of her.

I completely *heart* her.
