CATSNY--"RENT was always intended to feature new up-and-coming talent"-- were you friends with Jonathan Larson? Daphne was involved with RENT from the get-go....and yes- she was much older than publicized but boy didn't she look fierce?!

localone-- you arent the only one mamamia sammy stalks and taunts. he has nothing better to do. I recommend going into your settings and "blocking" him so his messages dont even show up in the messages boards when you're reading...

Were you friends with Jonathan Larson?
______________________________________

I was never a friend of Jonathan's. Only a select few of us had that pleasure. But, I have read the book of RENT and it doesn't seem to me that it was ever meant to feature "star casting" in this way. I think it takes away from the message when someone goes to see the show just because some celebrity they like is in it. RENT isn't about that, and it pains me that the producers continue to possibly hurt the reputation of the show by using people who could possibly "kill" the show....I mean I too laughed when I saw this headline. It's not right. But maybe it is... who knows maybe she'll pull it off...

I liked the "unknown talent" in RENT. It seemed to fit the show more. Not to say Scary Spice can't pull it off, she may be amazing, who knows...I absolutely adore RENT but I think its time is running out.

Daphne was NOT the oldest ever to play Mimi on broadway. Not very long ago one of the girls who played Mimi was just pushing forty.

Now- I don't know how I feel about Scary Spice being Mimi. I've heard this rumor countless times, and to hear that it is finally going to happen...that's kind of scary. I think she could probably pull it off, and I'm quite curious to see her.

How this will affect RENT??? Well, it'll be another Joey Fatone flock of teeney boppers who want to see stars from old boy/girl groups. Ticket sales will go up.

I have my books and my poetry to protect me...

is anybody worried about her accent?

she might be a really good singer or actress.

Does anybody know if she can do a NYC/American accent?>

I'd like to think she wouldn't have been cast if she couldn't sound like a New Yorker, or at least an American.

Uh, Bway diva, there was a reason why I did not include the name of the performer I was talking about because it's probably not something she wants discussed on a message board...

I CAN'T WAIT. I LOVE HER. I HOPE I CAN GET A PICTURE WITH HER. I JUST HOPE SHE DOES A GOOD JOB AND NOT RUIN SUCH A GREAT SHOW. LIKE SOME OTHER POP STAR DID A FEW YEARS AGO.
