They have updated colored headshots, too. Adam's is odd -- what's with the movie promo photography not capturing how beautiful he is?

Anyway, yay Tracie! I met her at the Flea Market, and she was lovely!

This is my favorite part:
They thank me for my time and my autograph, and then I thank them for wanting my autograph! I'm such a weirdo! I think I might actually make them uncomfortable sometimes with my excitement. I'm so not the cool celebrity-type. I'm supposed to let the fan be excited, not be excited myself.

I love that; it's fantastic, adorable and so full of heart.
I love that what she says feels so *real*.

Now, if only it would let me submit my comment. It keeps telling me it's inappropriate, when it's far from it! haha!

I'm sure we will. We just did one in LA at a benefit for Multiple Sclerosis. There are talks of more performances, but I don't know of any specifically yet. We'll keep you guys posted!"

Did anyone know about this??

My friend was at the MS benefit, and did not tell me until a week or two afterwards, because she knows I would have died to go.

Tracie is awsome! Seriously, she's so adorable. And I'm really excited about her being part of The Devil Wears Prada movie. I love that book to death and it sounds like a great cast so far so that's something to look foward to in the future.

Emcee, I loved that one line too. Seriously, Tracie just keeps giving me more excuses to love her.

Tracie as Elphaba would be interesting. Heh, I just had this weird idea of Idina singing Popular to Tracie, trying to explain how to deal with all the crazy fans.

Everytime she opens her mouth, or writes something I always seem to love her some more. Go Tracie!

"Tracie as Elphaba would be interesting. Heh, I just had this weird idea of Idina singing Popular to Tracie, trying to explain how to deal with all the crazy fans."

^lmao. I would totally pay to see that.

From what I could gather (she is not a huge Rent fan) everyone was there but Idina and Taye. She said there were six there, four guys and two girls. The "cute black guy from L&O was there, but no other black guy, and no statuesque brunette." So, I gather it was Taye and Idina missing.

They sang Seasons of Love, What you Own, and I'll Cover you. She said they sounded great.

Because she is not a huge Rent fan, that is about all she could provide.

It was a fundraiser at the Kodak theater in Hollywood.

Aw, Tracie! I feel like she would be an awesome person to be friends with. Did anyone else watch her in Wonderfalls, the incredibly underrated, ill-fated Fox show?
