Holy crap.... that shot of the girls looking out into the theatre.
Breathtaking. The Palace Theatre is beautiful!
For every aspect of my life there has been a song to coincide - I live for the next track and I'll die for the greatest hits

lets go kate rockwell.
post from elles lounge:
According to my source who works directly for the Palace Theater:
Bailey is the winner. Amazon already leaked out her single of "So Much Better" through their website as a "preview digital download." Sadly, the song is a key lower.
Bailey WILL star in the show starting Wednesday night. She's on a preliminary contract (same as the GREASE reality winners) for two weeks and depending on how she'll do, they'll secure her for a longer term contract. It's kind of like insurance for Bernard-Telsey. But rest assured, there's a stand-by at the theater every day. According to this person (who isn't the House Manager and is actually higher on the food chain), BT and Jerry Mitchell are confident in Bailey, that they picked the right person (and no, it's not Amber AND Bailey as many rumors have stated). When I was at the show on Saturday, some of the cast members didn't seem to keen on the winner. I've heard that there's been some tension (perhaps fame going to the head too fast?).
Personally, I think Bailey was a very self-centered person. She has a lot of growing up to do. Her behavior and attitude towards some of the girls on the show, like Cassie, was very much uncalled for. "Do unto others as you would have done to you." Understandable it was a competition, but talking down and bitching about others doesn't make you look any better. And honestly, her voice isn't spectacular. She may have auditioned for American Idol, but that doesn't give her the right to perform on Broadway. What about all the starving actors trying just to make Equity? The ones who have been up there working 10 plus years, working two jobs and going to auditions? Silver platters and Broadway are just going to spawn out semi-talented has-beens. Just look at American Idol... Taylor Hicks, Ruben Studdard, Fantasia... has-beens.

Posted: 7/21/08 at 10:24pmIf it's really Bailey, their editing job was really faulty considering they showed Bailey in 2 different locations throughout the show when they didn't show any of the other girls there.

Autumn looks a lot better with the wig. I can see her more as Elle now.
Not that it matters, I guess, because it seems Bailey wins anyway.

Why isn't Bailey wearing the wig? I thought that all of the Elles wear it, even the natural blondes.
And her performance actually really impressed me, though Autumn's vocals were more polished.

Autumn does look fantastic in that wig!
Bailey did REALLY good i think on that first number.
But man Autumns voice was incredible
#892re: The Search for Elle Woods: The Spoiler thread
Posted: 7/21/08 at 10:35pmAutumn did incredible during Ohmigod You Guys. She really has a much much stronger voice than Bailey.
#893re: The Search for Elle Woods: The Spoiler thread
Posted: 7/21/08 at 10:36pmFront what I've learned about tracks and sets, is that some are on a timer. For instance the stairs are set to sit there for a bit longer in a normal show. I imagine the timers were turned off since they weren't going right into serious, leaving the great stagehands to move it back :]

Posted: 7/21/08 at 10:36pmAm I the only crazy who started to tear up a little? I mean, that's a huge moment in their lives and I'm extremely happy for either of them whoever wins.

Posted: 7/21/08 at 10:40pmAnyone else find it cute that Jerry mouths the words :]
#896re: The Search for Elle Woods: The Spoiler thread
Posted: 7/21/08 at 10:41pmHa, Rusty is playing Emmett. I'm wondering how long Christian will stay with the show after Bailey takes over.
