...why do they have one of the stunts play Velma? Is it that the role requires REAL dancing?

Posted: 3/28/07 at 10:40pmThis casting doesn't surprise me at all for some reason. I'm not going to comment before I see it, but I wish both of them well...

Harry Hamlin will be interesting to see, because as we all saw on DWTS, he seems to have the personality of a branch.
Lisa Rinna I've been saying should play Roxie from the first time I saw her on the show. She can dance, she has charisma and energy to spare, and from her soap and MP days, she can do femme fatale. I'm very excited to see her take on the role.

Posted: 3/28/07 at 11:09pmHarry Hamlin has done a lot of stage work. He's hardly a novice.

Lynn and Aaron Echolls are alive and moving to Broadway!
Needless to say, I'm excited by this news

Posted: 3/28/07 at 11:24pmIt looks like I will be seeing her when the tour comes to Dallas. Hopefully she will be good. Last time I saw the show, Robin Givens was Roxie and she was pretty decent. I wanted to see Michelle DeJean though. Oh well..I will write a review of Lisa's performance when I see it.

Posted: 3/29/07 at 3:52pmI think Terra and Miss Rinna will make a great pair for those who will get to see the tour. Two femme fatales...genial!!!

Where is it on that message saying she's performing "Roxie" on DANCING WITH THE STARS? It might just be another 'special guest' appearance, like Drew Lachey did this past Tuesday night on the 'Results Show'. He danced with his winning partner, Cheryl Burke. She most likely will do the same -- nothing from CHICAGO.
