Daniela? Even though she should be playing Camila, age-wise.

I wonder if she'll eventually be replaced by Ellen DeGeneres?

Bianca Marroquin.
Apparently all the other women who've played Diana were unavailable to replace Priscilla Lopez.

Um.....did she have to sing during the audition? Paula can't sing Camilla's song. Seriously this is BAD!!!!!

This has to be a liability nightmare too. Good luck getting her to show up not under the influence.

Ugh. To add insult to injury in regards to such a lackluster theatre season.

To quote Liz Lemon...what the WHAT?

And people complain about other casting news. Paula cannot sing. This is hilarious if true.

Does Camilla's dreadful song really require much singing? I thought Lopez was wasting her talent in the show.

Honestly guys, this is what everybody was saying about Bleusnavi. But he turned out to be phenomenal. Give it a chance.

Yes, but Paula CANT sing live. Corbin can. Plus, Paula has never acted and Corbin has. Paula always seemed messed up on pills. IF anything this will draw people in to see a possible trainwreck. I have no idea what creative team would hire her for a live stage production.

Yeah, but Paula is a proven drunken nut job who can't sing.

The show is horrible. If it wouldn't be as bad as it is, I'd go see Paula in a heartbeat.

"Yeah, but Paula is a proven drunken nut job who can't sing."
i am not defending the choice, but i have to say, Paula's thing is not drink. it is pills. pain pills. she was in a helicoper or plane accident with emelio estevez when they were married, and coupled with her years and years of dance and coreography she has been in constant pain. had surgeries, etc. i know she has become a joke, and i agree sometimes it is hard to take, but people don't realize what chronic pain is. i have a sister who needs needles like paula, in the stomach tissue to even block some of it out. not pretty. the pain killers she takes obviously knock her for a loop.
people forget at one time she was a sought after coreographer and thought of as a supreme talent.
she can tap dance like nobody's business as well. or at least used to.
again, i agree it is a "jump the shark" moment, but just wait. it is going to one of two ways.

^ How is tap dancing gonna help her in this show? The character of Camila hardly dances at all in the show. It's more of an acting role, which Paula has never done (or if you want Bruno to count).
