Laura Bell Bundy Gets Sardi's Caricature- Page 2

[Not Barker, Todd.]

Posted: 4/29/08 at 1:17pm

I think the negative comments are from people who are simply bemoaning the fact that getting a portrait at Sardi's is no longer as big an honor as it used to be. No one is knocking Laura Bell, or saying she isn't a legit actress, just that it used to be that she would have to have had a longer career before this happened.

But I also agree she sure as hell is more deserving than some of the other recent additions.

Good for her! I'm digging the bangs.

Laura: looks thinner.
Her caricature: not much like her.
Christian Borle: awfully somber.

I'm sure the whole cast was invited. It was during the day though, and people have things to get done.

yes- i thought LBB looked awesome. I love Lorna though. She looks like she'd be a hoot.

Good for her! When I saw her in LB, contrary to other reviews on this board, she was right on point in every single song. She's a great performer and a true professional.

Also, did anyone else notice that she's wearing the shoes from Legally Blonde Remix? I mean, she is right? I'm not insane?

What a shame they have space!!!
Why does she deserve this above so many 100s of others ?

They should let people on this board decide who gets their portrait in Sardi's!!! Do you realize that the fate of all mankind depends on it?

I'm gonna preface this by saying... Laura looks really nice there. Good makeup, good hair, cute coat.

However, the "caricature" is far too kind. It looks a bit like her, if she were completely symmetrical, and she's not even kinda symmetrical. It reminds me of the Ken Doll Raul-as-Bobby portrait. The LBB portrait could be its Barbie.

no... you're right shh282 christian makes the same face in EVERY photo ever.. i have some stage door pics of me and him. and then pictures of my friend bob with him. Same face. Different photo.. i think one of two things.. he hates his teeth or he thinks it looks cool.

Once again I ask...

Anbody notice the shoes?

[shh282]

Posted: 4/30/08 at 10:58am

I don't think they are- I thought they were more strappy but I could be wrong..

WTF Is with all the bitchy queen comments...put your handbags away

Well done to her i say, shes working her arse of in that role at the moment and has done some great stuff before

Doesn't really look like her at all. Looks more like a "she's got her own cartoon" kind of rendering.

Sutton hasn't gotten one yet? Strange.

First Bob Saget now her. Who's next, Gaiken?

It's all just publicity anyway.

I have never thought those caricatures were very good. I had dinner there in the 70s and thought they were pretty crude back then.

And LBB deserves one as much as anyone else there. She opened a new show, she's created two roles on Broadway and has many fans. Look around and see how many totally forgotten faces there are on those walls.

I'm writing this as fire crews are mopping up the huge fire at the corner of Hollywood and Vine, just down the road from the Pantages, home of Wicked. I wonder if they'll cancel for the night?
