Overheard someone talking about her joing the cast in some way, anyone hear anything about this?
Paula "from my kitchen to yours" Deen?
*les gasps*
NEVER.
Are we talking about "Son, what's your mother's favorite dessert? ... butter!" Paula Deen?

I don't know if there's any validity to this whatsoever, but I think she could do it. In fact, I'd pay to see her do it!

Usually, when a singer or TV star is mentioned as a possible addition to a show, people line up to rant about STUNT CASTING!
Now, we have rumors of a COOK coming to Broadway and everyone is creaming?
Now I am hungry. But why would they need her if they have Dollys name attatched?

I wonder what part she'd play? Or maybe she'd run the concession stand?
OMG - what about this as the poster:
Paula Deen Rachel Ray Giadda DeLaurentes
are working....................
9-5
with EMERIL as The Boss
I'd go seee it.

I'm guessing the only other possible female parts in the show would be the alcoholic secretary or Roz, the boss's nosy personal assistant. I'm thinking that it is unlikely that someone as "lovable" as Paula would play the unlikable Roz. If anything, she'd be the secretary. And that's assuming they make her role bigger in the stage show, since she's in MAYBE 3 minutes of the movie.
C'mon...hasn't ANYONE seen 9 to 5? Or is this gonna be like Xanadu, with all these sudden fans?
I love 9 to 5
brianidol, i heart you. hahaa
I love me some Paula (and her son) but I think she's too old to play ANY of the parts.
And just because she talks like Dolly Parton doesn't mean she can pull off the role of the 'office floosie'.
The other small role from the movie is the boss' wife, and I think she'd be a good fit for that.
I could see the bosses wife having a few short songs....sorta like the mother from rent? (ps I have never seen rent so that may be wrong)
