Kristin Chenoweth overrated? What do you think?

Posted: 12/20/03 at 7:07pm

No I do not think so at all. I saw someone post a message referring to her as the overrated blonde and I just don't think that is true. I have only seen her perform a couple of times, but I think she has perfect comedic timing and a vocal range that blows most performers away. Even on her not so great television show, she was very funny. Maybe some people just get tired of hearing about someone and it turns into a case of sour grapes. I think she deserves all the accolades but that is not to say that I think Idina Menzel is not fabulous too. I only wanted to see if anyone else thought Ms. Chenoweth is an "overrated blonde".

No, I don't think so at all. I admit that I'm probably v. biased because I'm a fan of Kristin but I really don't think she's overrated at all, not in the least bit. I think she's a good quality performer that has worked hard to get where she is now. Just my 2 cents =)

Happy holidays everyone!

I agree with everything said so far. Kristin is irresistable. Her personality is to die for on stage. Her vocal range is fantastic- I enjoy listening to her sing anything.

As said, she is a good quality performing and worth paying for.

I like Kristin Chenoweth. I'm not her biggest fan and I thought she was horrible in The Music Man television movie (as was all of it) but I would never refer to her as overrated.

Readers of this thread really should check out the ongoing debate at the WICKED CD postings. All about La C.

I wouldn't blame her for MUSIC MAN. The whole enterprise was labored and heavy-handed. Her lack of chemistry with Broderick -- he just plain goofy and asexual, she about as desperate and spinsterish as a turn of the century legal blonde -- didn't cut it.

From what I have seen Kristin in, her singing voice is beautiful, really top notch, but she sounds like she just finished sucking on helium when she speaks, and its's incredibly distracting.

"Since I won't dignify that "other" thread about Chenoweths overrated-ness"....

I guess the original person who thought Kristin was overrated has taken back what she said but does not want to "dignify" this "other thread" because she sees that she is wrong. We all know that Kristin is not a household name or a superstar. Nevertheless, she is very talented and is very deserving of the praise she has gotten.

Like I said, you have to have a certain level of maturity to *comprehend* sarcasm and wit. Quite obviously, you missed both of those things in my post on the other thread.

One thing you got to learn if you are gonna post here: some people (one being Al Dente) love to fill their posts with sarcasm. I used to hate Al because he seemed so nasty (sometimes still is...love ya!), but now I just laugh because he is just being humorous. re: re: : Kristin Chenoweth overrated? What do you think?

I do have the capabilty to *comprehend* both sarcasm and wit. However, I very rarely find either of those componets in the posts made by Al Dente. I see that Al has decided to grace this thread with his presence which thrills me to no end despite my level of maturity.

I don't think Kristin is at all overrated. She is extreme;y talenetd and that is something tahts eems to be lacking on Broadway these days. Ther really are very few with her level of talent getting any work lately.

I also agree with teh statement about her version of the Woman in 14G (that may not be the exact title, I know). The way she switches styles flawlessly through that song is fantastic. Someone once told me that they had herad it was editted to make the style jumps appear to happen quicker on the Cd. I did hear her perform the song live and that isn't the case at all.

why she wasnt at CD signing

Posted: 12/21/03 at 5:46pm

I spoke to one of my friends in the show and apparently Sony Classic (whom she has her solo album) refused to let her promote another CD, i.e. Wicked.. so she was not allowed to participate in the cd signing.
