well actually, Chita can be considered for NOW cause she is still kicking those legs, and projecting that voice in "Nine":

actually, Chita has been in theatre only 2 years longer than bernadette, and that doesn't really count any of bernadettes roles when she was younger....she had her equity by the age of nine. and plus it is not how many show a person has done....i could have starred in a huge broaday musical and won a tony award, and you could have been stuck in the chorus for like 5 shows, but still im better...see???? bernadette is the better of the two and always will be(mind you i am huge fan of chita too) go to my website and scroll down on the first page to see bernadette stage credits, (not including those of when she was really young) ::
