That's what i think too.
BTW she seems VERY suppotive of the reality show based on the BWW video oh her and Haylie Duff. The show IS going to cast her replacment so i think ur probably right.

I heard they are going to cast Jennifer Holliday...


"Whenever I get gloomy with the state of the world, I think about the arrivals gate at Heathrow Airport. General opinion's starting to make out that we live in a world of hatred and greed, but I don't see that. It seems to me that love is everywhere. Often it's not particularly dignified or newsworthy, but it's always there - fathers and sons, mothers and daughters, husbands and wives, boyfriends, girlfriends, old friends. When the planes hit the Twin Towers, as far as I know none of the phone calls from the people on board were messages of hate or revenge - they were all messages of love. If you look for it, I've got a sneaky feeling you'll find that love actually is all around."

Wasn't there buzz about how the winner might just be the understudy? wouldn't that mean that LBB is indefinite?

I thought Patti Lupone was leaving Gypsy to take over the role when LBB left?

LBB's understudy is not replacing her. Becky (Elle's Understudy) is going to be full time Elle on tour, which I think is amazing for her! I really do hope whoever was picked during the reality show is a girl that can keep up with the role because whoever it is I personally think will have a big shoes to fill.

Maybe after Erin's run...next summer?

I personally think LBB should take over for Kendra on B'way.

I think Laura should take over for Annaleigh. Kendra needs to let go.

Oh I thought people knew? Well, basically, just having to do with her breeching her contract as the stand-by for Kristin Chenoweth. I guess she went to CA or something and didn't tell them.

Laura was the original standby for Glinda in the OBC and Kristin was unalb eot go on, her understudy was also unable, and the only one left was Laura. Problem was that she was on a vacation somewhere and did not tell the producers.

she was not friendly with the crew there either. just saw a preview for the next elle woods still pissed about not lending it to a understudy for the first replacment. it looks like jerry was mad and didnt look they were connecting with the cast.
is it still in the talks that lbb got offered to be elle woods in the london production?. lbb is so sweet though and i love how she handles alot at once.

They wouldn't bring Erin to LA for her to do the show for less than 6 months. Or would they? I would love Laura as Glinda, especially since it's like impossible to get footage of her standby days in the OBC.
