GREAT casting, judging by her voice on the CD.

She sang the crap out of "A Change In Me" in On The Record. I'm sure she will be amazing as Belle.

On the Record wasnt terrible... But Ashley was absolutely fabulous and was worth every single penny. If I hadnt already seen it, and liked it a little more, I would want to fly up and see her in it. Breathtaking... she was just fantastic! Now I think they should come out with a new recording... but you cant beat her LIVE!

She was superb in "On The Record." I think this will be the beginning of a long career on Broadway for her. NY audiences are going to fall in love with her.

She may be right out of college but she already did a big show! And if she's good, she deserves it!!!

Atleast they didn't go for some terrible stunt DeGarmo casting.

Glad she got the role. I was not a fan of the On the Record, but she showed great vocal talent and I loved her rendition of "A Change in Me".

She is right out of college. She graduated in what 2003? Landing a national tour/broadway gig within a year of graduation is pretty much right out of college.
