i thought the same thing! the point is that she DOESNT look like that.
<-- Gwen Stewart, SOLoist at the last show of RENT Cages or wings?
Which do you prefer?
Ask the birds.
Fear or love, baby?
Don't say the answer

(Tick, Tick... BOOM!)
It's truly disgusting how conceited some of the girls are, given their lack of talent. The girl yammering on about how much she loved her voice and loved to hear herself sing? Oy...
How about the girl was so over-the-top sexy, all she needed was a stripper pole on stage.
And Hayley Duff...if she mentions her Broadway debut in Hairspay one more time...
Nauseating...but I'll keep watching just to see how bad it can get.
This has to be some of the WORST competition based reality TV I've watched in a while. This thing is so clearly staged, rehearsed and dare I say...scripted! by all involved. Emma Zaks audition in particular was so clearly performed sloppily on purpose. Having seen her as the Anne u/s in La Cage, the bit of singing and performing she had to do completely trumped anything she put forth on this first episode.
I feel like most people in the Broadway community more or less know that this is a semi-staged contest. They're all actresses hired to play a part..some of them were hired to play winners, some to play losers with one playing the star. There's no way Emma would've put that poor audition before Telsey unless she was instructed to do so. I agree that this is grade A DRECK. And don't even get me started on Duff!
i highly doubt bad auditions were scripted. why would these professionals want to look bad on national tv? and no trust me.. im not bitter :) i am just sickened by standards of todays broadway. i think ethel merman is probably spinning in her grave.
I love how everyone keeps saying that they're all professional actresses who have had some broadway and tour experience, and then follow up with talking about how concieted they are. They were told to be conciieted and bitchy. I'm sure that they were told to sing badly too. They want to show "how far they've come."

Thank you! You stole the words right from my mouth!
I do want to say that after watching some clips on the mtv website Cassie O has my vote. She truly is incredibly talented. She has clips on &&& tube as well that are beautiful. But aside from that, I am kind of not going to lie but, I am looking foward to watching tonight. Not bashing, just watching. I am curious to see how they handle Nikki "forgetting" lines.
Yay! Nikki is on tonight! I hope she can whip them in to... well actually I'd prefer if she just whipped them.
You must think I'm still sixteen.
I dropped out of high school for a reason.
And I don't care if you're pretty. I'm not admitting you are right.
My soul is not a stage.
I won't pretend I'm anything I'm not
"i thought the same thing! the point is that she DOESNT look like that"
That really bothered me when the writer said that none of the girls except for Emma looked like they could go to Harvard Law. The whole point of Legally Blonde is that Elle DOESN'T look like she could go to Harvard Law. It's kind of the plot.
I was just watching the online full audition clips of So Much Better, and they did a camera sweep of the theatre, and I think I saw Jerry Mitchell in the audience, sitting away from the judges. I think it was in Celina's audition. Anyone else see this?
Oh, and I almost forgot to mention...I'm the good cop, he's the bad cop.
"That really bothered me when the writer said that none of the girls except for Emma looked like they could go to Harvard Law.

Laura Bell Bundy certainly doesn't look like she could go to Harvard Law. I'm 80% sure the show is rigged, they just wanted to make Emma look better since she sucks and singing and acting but she's going to win anyway because of her dad and his four Tonys.
I figured that the show is rigged but what possible purpose would Jerry's being there or not being there serve? Sorry I keep pushing this, but I just find it so random.
