Oh, I see there was an article this week already.

Let's talk about it :)

In my opinion the roles of Chris and Kim require extremely good singers.

I hope they take 2 unknown singers/actors for these roles, or people from the theatre world.

I don't think Jake's singing is excellent enough. Plus he might be a little too old for the role by now.

I think Nicole Scherzinger would make a perfect Gigi.

SIR CAMERON MACKINTOSH is hoping to make a movie of hit stage show MISS SAIGON if the upcoming big screen version of LES MISERABLES is a success.

While I do think Les Mis will be a successful film, it really really depend on HOW successful it is. And even then, it's still probably a big "if". But I do think Miss Saigon lends itself to film even more strongly than Les Mis. Even the original staging was highly cinematic.

So dub him. More actors need to start being dubbed in movie musicals or every one of them will star Hugh Jackman and Anne Hathaway.

Jessica Sanchez for Yvonne!

"Jessica Sanchez for Yvonne!"

Why not? A Mexican looking prostitute with a R&B voice and "Jennifer Hudson sound" will make a nice contrast to the Lea Salonga-type of voice that should play Kim.

Does Kim have to be played by an actual female?

Lea Salonga better has a cameo role in this! Maybe Kim's mother? But her body burning to the ground is too grotesque.

Burn Lea Salonga to the ground.

Poor Jordan

He will not cry, he will not think
He'll do his dance, he'll make them drink
When he makes love, it won't be he
And if they hurt him, he'll just close his eyes
And see
The Jake G in his mind
He dreams to give him head
If they can't have a date
He'll see his show instead

He'll see the matinee
And then come back at night
To blow after the play
Dream
The dream he has to find
The Jake G in his mind

I think Charice could do it. She is young enough.

What's wrong with Jordy? His herpes acting up again?

[themysteriousgrowl]

He's sick and wants Chinese food.
