Kelli O'Hara..You Wuz Robbed

So Chritina Applegate gets a nod but Kelli O'Hara doesn't.

That just tells you something's wrong.

And Matthew Morrison good enough to be lead actor?

And before we start whining, yes there were other people who should have been nominated (Ramirez).

Hell.... even SU Berry from the same show didn't deserve it.

But hey..look on the bright side. At least Crappy Crappy Bang Bang won't sweep.

Unfortunatly, a tv/movie star is allowed to make her Broadway debut, do a servicible job, and get a nomination over a hard working stage-only actress in a more challenging role.

But, guys, she BROKE her foot! She so deserves a Tony just for that!

Yes, kelli was robbed. Absolutely. As was Miss Ramirez, but I would not suggest that just because Applegate's name "carries more weight" because she is a tv/film star, she nailed the nomination without work.

Discrediting her work, performance, and/or ability just isn't fair. I am sure doing this show is not a cake walk. but I am also not saying she deserves the nom either.

im wondering if sara and kelli were both being considered as leads? and got muscled out in favor of the dessa rose ladies. if matt was lead, kelli certainly was. sara, who knows...

[bwaysinger]

I think there's no way they considered Sara a lead. She's in two moments in the 2nd act. I just think they were, surprisingly, unimpressed or else she was edged out slightly by someone else.

I hope Kelli knows she has lots of fans out here and most are in agreement she should have been nominated at the very least. But I have a feeling there is LOTS more in this talented performers future! 3 cheers for Ms O'Hara hip hip hooray!

I can't believe you guys are bitter over Christina getting a nod. Give it up.

Couldn't agree more ljay.

im not bitter over christina getting a nom... i figure all the off broadway noms have more to do with certain expected people being left out...

i love kelli. she is so talented. she deserves more than what she got. she's such a nice person too.

Lj and FO...when did you see Christina? What day?

[ShuQ]

Posted: 4/28/05 at 10:38pm

Sara didn't get the feature nom....all the more reason for her to win the Tony!!!

Kelli O'Hara provides not the slightest bit of charm, vulnerability, or simpatico to TLITP and is one of its greatest liabilities.

[Mr. Tuttle]

We have yet to hear from our "critics" why they didn't enjoy her performance that they bashed.

[FOAnatic]

Posted: 4/29/05 at 1:02am

Who bashed Kelli?

[WayWicked]

Posted: 4/29/05 at 1:06am

Ahh..you just agreed with Lj889 that she didn't deserve the nomination.

Hello...read your own post.

[FOAnatic]

Posted: 4/29/05 at 1:10am

NO...I agreed with ljay that Christina got a nod because she is a definite lead. I said nothing about Kelli not deserving a nod.

[Mr. Tuttle]

Posted: 4/29/05 at 1:11am

You're using logic. Something they don't teach in 6th grade.

So FO..how was the show? You agreed that Christina deserved the nom. So you've seen it. When did you catch it?

[munkustrap178]

Posted: 4/29/05 at 1:13am

Tuttle is just a blabbering idiot. After all, he thinks that talent is the determining factor in whether or not someone is considered leading or featuring.

Keli O'Hara is talented, no doubt. But she's very disposable in the part. I didn't find her memorable or exceptional in any way.

[Mr. Tuttle]

Posted: 4/29/05 at 1:24am

Please remember...one screen name per person.

[munkustrap178]

Posted: 4/29/05 at 1:29am

One screename per person? What are you talking about?

[WayWicked]

Posted: 4/29/05 at 2:49pm

Yes Mr T..I love it when other other comment on performances they haven't even seen. It's obvious Fonatic and Lj haven't even see Christina or even Kelli, but both feel the right to bash someones performance.

You are so right...they are 6th graders.
