I wonder who it'll be!?!?

You're reminding me of people you hear at the movies asking questions every ten seconds, "Who is that? Why is that guy walking down the street? Who's that lady coming up to him? Uh-oh, why did that car go by? Why is it so dark in this theater?" - FindingNamo on strummergirl

"If artists were machines, then I'm just a different kind of machine...I'd probably be a toaster. Actually, I'd be a toaster oven because they're more versatile. And I like making grilled cheese" -Regina Spektor

"That's, like, twelve shows! ...Or seven." -Crazy SA Fangirl

"They say that just being relaxed is the most important thing [in acting]. I take that to another level, I think kinda like yawning and...like being partially asleep onstage is also good, but whatever." - Sherie Rene Scott

Alice is incredible in N2N and it's a tough call for me but ultimately, because of her constant string of stunning performance after stunning performance:

Can we at least be FAIR and let the time run out before we start getting all witty and sarcastic? Sorry. It's just for fun anyway.

You still got your vote #4 in for Ms. Ripley.. no need to be snarky to me.

Don't be bitter that she lost! I think Alice is amazing -- but I'm not sure HOW anyone can even think about putting Alice in front of Audra.

Talent, Experience, Versatility. Audra has that in the bag.

jazzsquare-- Sorry, I didn't mean to be snarky-- I tried to apologize as I typed that post. I just wanted people to at least continue voting before getting turned off. And I should add, I do love Audra and Alice both a LOT so I won't be too disappointed either way. :)

"If this is going to be a Christian nation that doesn't help the poor, either we have to pretend that Jesus was just as selfish as we are, or we've got to acknowledge that He commanded us to love the poor and serve the needy without condition and then admit that we just don't want to do it." -Stephen Colbert

"I'm not sure HOW anyone can even think about putting Alice in front of Audra."

I voted for Alice because she is one of the best actresses of our generation. I'm sure Audra is very talented too. I haven't seen her perform live, but she probably doesn't have four Tonys for nothing.

If Alice wasn't giving a critically acclaimed performance right now, would she even have made the finals? I love her and think she's wonderful, but nothing compares to McDonald's body of work and range.

The only reason Alice made it this far is because she is currently giving the year's best performance.

Cheyenne Jackson tickled me. AFTER ordering SoMMS a drink but NOT tickling him, and hanging out with Girly in his dressing room (where he DIDN'T tickle her) but BEFORE we got married. To others. And then he tweeted Boobs. He also tweeted he's good friends with some chick on "The Voice" who just happens to be good friends with Tink's ex. And I'm still married. Oh, and this just in: "Pettiness, spite, malice ....Such ugly emotions... So sad." - After Eight, talking about MEEEEEEEE!!! I'm so honored! :-)

Alice is certainly giving the female performance of the year, but Audra takes my breath away each time I see her. Despite being a gorgeous woman, she truly made me believe she was 'plain' in 110 in the Shade.
