Oh Lord. What a silly looking ad.
I didn't know Celie could afford a dye job.

Posted: 3/1/07 at 2:23pmI couldn't help but chuckle that the Chicago company will feature yet another American Idol alum (LaToya London). I'm just waiting for Ruben Studdard to get in on the act.

well on Oprah she asked her if she enjoyed the blond dye job but emphasized it was "just for now".
not to mention doesn't she wear a wig during the show?

EVERYONE in the show wears a wig, for practical purposes (and head-mics).
It's rare that anyone on Broadway doesn't wear a wig in a show, male and female.

That has to be the worst thing I've ever seen. I hope someone got fired for it.
A musical about love? Is that really their tag line?

please tell me they don't intend to display that anywhere publicly. The picture is waaaaayyyy too wrong for the show
the blonde hair
the modern clothing
the happy "oh yeah girl" look
You're reminding me of people you hear at the movies asking questions every ten seconds, "Who is that? Why is that guy walking down the street? Who's that lady coming up to him? Uh-oh, why did that car go by? Why is it so dark in this theater?" - FindingNamo on strummergirl

You guys are ridiculous.
They're just showing a picture of Fantasia on the COLOR PURPLE ad. It's not "THIS PICTURE IS OF FANTASIA AS CELIE IN THE COLOR PURPLE." PLEASE. You have got to be kidding. They're just announcing her addition to the cast. It's not intended to show what she's going to look like in the role.
People on here KILL me.

Oh and PS, as for the ad, I don't see anything wrong with it. I prefer that picture and the blonde hair to how she looked on Idol when she announced her stint.
...eww. That dress was not pretty on her.

This seems like an awful lot of nasty... over a ho-hum ad. I thought she was fantastic on Oprah.

Munk, that doesn't negate the fact that it's highly unattractive and that the layout is just poorly done. I know you were probably talking to the other posters who keep harping on the dye job, but I'm just talking about the banner itself regardless of her hair or manly features. I don't care if it's only used to let people know she's in it, the job is to make Fantasia in the Color Purple seem appealing for people to buy tickets. Even if most people who will do that are already fans of Fantasia, it doesn't hurt to make the banner look good.

Best.

"You travel alone because other people are only there to remind you how much that hook hurts that we all bit down on. Wait for that one day we can bite free and get back out there in space where we belong, sail back over water, over skies, into space, the hook finally out of our mouths and we wander back out there in space spawning to other planets never to return hurrah to earth and we'll look back and can't even see these lives here anymore. Only the taste of blood to remind us we ever existed. The earth is small. We're gone. We're dead. We're safe."

Much better tag line than "The musical about love"
I thought they were just using that for the Valentine's Day period but it stuck, lol
