Will the dutch version of "The Wiz" come over here? and did Vanessa Williams play Glinda over there for a while?

No on both accounts.

Miss Williams has been involved for some time now with some little obscure television show on ABC called UGLY BETTY.

Anyone ever seen this show? Does she sing on it? Is she the 'Ugly Betty' of the title?

Who is Betty? And why is she ugly?

I just saw a picture of Vanessa Williams as Glinda in The Wiz on Nurlaila Karim's website.

Unmasked - Vanessa Williams didn't play the role. Why would she play a tiny role in a musical in Holland? Updated On: 4/27/07 at 11:33 AM

I actually saw her at the show when I went to La Jolla Revival.

Because she's on a hit television show that films in Los Angeles and has a bunch of kids at home?

That's Sophia Wezer, not Vanessa Williams.

She still might want to be in a musical so she can do live performing.

They already made 'The Wiz' . The original is better. Why try to remake something that doesn't need to be?
