CZJ is going to give herself whiplash...
"Barbara Cook looks like she's wearing the amazing Technicolor dreamcoat."
My sister's wondering why I am lmao.
She also wondered initially if CZJ was supposed to be singing in another language.

That was a bizarre performance, Ms. Jones.
Wow. Catherine sucked the big one tonight.
Everything feels so off tonight.
"...nexT" Wow, talking about diction, but i kind of like the ending...
Memphis song was cheesey as hell
Poor Bobby, wanted him to win
I'm actually not digging Catherine Zeta-Jones' singing.
Waiting to have stuff thrown at me.
Didn't Ms. Cook wear that dress-thing a few years ago on the TONY's when she presented with Paul Shaffer?
I think she did.
Channeling Norma Desmond..
She is a bobble-head.
There have been many events at Radio City broadcast on television, including every single Tony Awards telecast since 200(3?). Only this and last year have problems with the sound occurred (with the exception of possibly one or two tiny instances I may not be remembering).
I would LOVE an explanation of what the issues are. Apparently everyone in-house can hear fine and don't notice anything (not difficult in that large venue. You can whisper and it would echo everywhere!).
"She holds onto that last note like it was from Tiffany's. And the last one in the world."
Catherine defenders, explain that performance to me, please.
"Barbara Cook looks like she's wearing the amazing Technicolor dreamcoat."-Wonderful.

The camera angle was very awkward.
Joseph coat. i am glad i am not the only one thinking this.
I didn't like that performance by CZJ one bit. I will get my bitchiness in like the anti kate finneran people if she wins.

NECKSSSS.... (oh yeah)... T... Year!!
I'm glad I'm going to watch Bernadette instead. :P
i am glad i'm not the only one who thought Norma Desmond was now appearing in A Little Night Music.
THAT was one of the most bizarre interpretations of "Send In The Clowns" I've ever seen.

If CZJ wins best actress, it will be a complete shame. That was probably the worst musical performance I've seen all season. Granted I didn't see the revival, buy I wouldn't see that performance even if I was paid to do so. Does she think singing is only about overenunciating consonants? I just loved her turning the word "next" at the end of the song into a two syllable word. That was nothing but a snoozefest. And last time I saw so much obvious, affected, and embarrassing emoting was by a typical community theater diva.
