The new Elle Woods will release her own "So Much Better" single..

On itunes, etc the day after they announce she wins.

Sounds interesting. I'll buy it.

So...they can use that if "the note" gets to be too much? :P

Sorry...couldn't resist. It does sound cool.

What?

I assume she'll be singing along to the taped OBCR orchestra? If they're doing that, why don't they just dub her into the entire show and sell that on itunes?

I'm with you on your "what?" Eris. More like "wtf?". I really worry about the education in America, if only from this board.

I feel like I need a translator at times because I, sometimes, have no idea what people are trying to say.

I agree with you about the education system. Two years ago I passed the NJ PRAXIS II for English and Composition but the state wouldn't certify me to teach because my GPA was a hair too low. My father died my freshman year in college and my grades suffered because of it. I was able to pull them up but not enough to raise my GPA to the level the state of NJ would like it to be. They make it so hard to become a teacher that the really qualified people give up rather than jump through the flaming hoops.

If they are recording NEW ensemble vocals, I don't see why they wouldn't re-record with the orchestra.
Usually when they dub into pre-existing tracks they do not use new ensemble vocals.

"So Much Better" - the most difficult "power ballad" currently being sung on B'way?!?!?!?!?! Let me queue up to get THIS one. *snort*

So are they still doing a 2-week clause in her contract?

I can't help but wonder if all this "two weeks" stuff has to do with somebody not fully understanding the Production contract and spouting it off like it's fact. Yes, in the Equity contract everybody is guaranteed two weeks pay after the closing notice is posted. If the producers choose to fire somebody, they are also guaranteed two weeks worth of pay. However, firing must come with just cause. Failing to sell tickets is not just cause.

However, I doubt that the producers of LB would have gone through all the expense of filming this reality show, as well as all the other expenses, i.e. rehearsal costs, promotional costs, recording the single of "So Much Better," if they only truly planned to guarantee two weeks worth of performances to the winner. That's nowhere near enough time to recoup those costs.
