I don't know if I believe that

Who on earth could she be referring to? Sondheim maybe?

Andrew Lloyd Webber.

Remember ALW was always talking about doing a stage version of "A Star is Born?" Please don't let it be that.

After trying her hands in children's book she now has her sights on a new musical. Ah jeez.

What does Madonna have against the British? The Princess Royal needs to say what she always says,"'Naff off!"

Oh...she sure is a pop icon, but...hope she will realize that is not her cup of tea. There is no flattering eye-bar lighting on stage (aren't you fed up with that weired eye lighting in her movies? Maybe she thinks she is Dietrich)...And lose that annoying fake british accent. Oh, well. I guess like it or not, when it happens, it happens. Happens all the time.

Can you see it? A musical staring Madonna, Debbie (Debra! excuse me!) Gibson and Cyndi Lauper!

Didn't the Bible predicted this would happen before the end of the world?

There is a major revival of Evita happening next year. The director behind it directed another movie-star's musical debut last week: Ewan McGregor..

Considering how the source of this news is Contactmusic, it's probably not true. Do they even say where the quotes came from?

i think it would be cool... she has a lot of charisma and in the right role she'd be a hit. Just hope it isn't sound of music... that would be bad!

Could it possibly be a musical where Madonna's character isn't required to sing? Let's hope so!

yes according to tabloid reports..madonna has penned a new musical called "Ester" a grass roots musical sung entirely by a cast of midgets off stage while the stars on stage hump and bumpt to tell the story of a young dancer who becomes famous, writes music, gets married, takes her clothes off, fails as an actress and has michael jacksons children before learning he is really latoya..racing into the second act we find this famous actress divorced working at mcdonalds and filming the new tv version of gimme a break starring james woods, alfre woodard and amanda bynes..alll in a all a good story line but the end is depressing when she learns her singing career is over and her acting career never was as she inhaled to many fumes from the fry cooker...alas good bye...rain........feel it on my finger tipss..rainnnnnnnnn
