Darn, the tour's coming here and if she's in it, I may have to see it.
Jimmy, what are you doing here in the middle of the night? It's almost 9 PM!

I don't think she can buy out her LB contract....... so I think Sandy isn't happening.

I don't think she is buying her way out of the contract. I thinkn that this must be a mistake. I would assume that the producers of Legally Blonde offered her the spot on the tour first and she took it over Grease. But, I don't see how she could go from being part of one tour to being part of another one.

If this is true, good for her. If not, I'm still looking forward to seeing her in the Legally Blonde tour!

Max and Laura both turned down the opportunity. If the Grease contract is for a higher salary, Lauren can break her Legally Blonde contract, per AEA rules.

If this is true, who is to say she has even signed a contract, and how long her "out" may be.

I'm thinking that her ass is now owned by Legally Blonde & MTV. Could they have written in a clause preventing her from leaving for more money?

Wow good for her!

why is she Facebook friends with people she doesn't know?

All lot of Broadway celebs are apparently friends with people they don't know. Autumn has over 2000 facebook friends and many are high school kids who are fans. I think it's kind of cool. I'm tempted to try to "friend" her myself (even though I'm very far removed from high school these days).

My parents were at the Stardust Diner last weekend and they announced one of their waitresses got the role on tour?

Why on earth are they touring this dreadful production!?

Money, of course.

Matt, they must have misunderstood at the diner...we have a waitress that just got cast as Jan and another that just got cast as Patty. No Sandy!

I agree with defyingravity07. I was under the impression that she was "owned" by MTV and the Legally Blonde producers after having been in the reality show.
I understand that AEA will let you change shows after you have signed the contract so long as the show your changing to is offering more money. Could the producers of Blonde put it in her contract that she can't do that regardless of the situation? Or would that be against AEA regulations?

She must have deleted the story, but it doesn't show up in her mini-feed.

It wouldn't surprise me to hear she deleted it. A lot of producers don't like it when cast members announce they are doing a show via their myspace or facebeook before there is an offical casting announcment.

It's a performers choice if they want to Facebook friend someone. When I saw Legally Blonde, Autumn told everyone that she'll keep her fans posted on Facebook for when she goes on as Elle.

Exactly. There are a lot of performers who use their facebook/myspace as both a way to interact with their fans and as a way to interact with friends/family.

yeah she deleted the status from her facebook. But you can see a lot of the responses to it on her facebook wall. :)
also, check out this vid of her in Batboy the musical singing the ever so beautiful duet Inside Your Heart. She really shows that she has a great head voice. We already heard ehr great belting skills before, but her head voice is truly phenomenal. Wouldn't be surprised if someday she plays Glinda in a production, whether it be Broadway, US TOur, Chicago, etc.
