I whole-heartedly agree that my list includes Braxton (hoed out Belle, lol!) Hasselhoff (thou if you closed your eyes, u'd swear it was Stevie Nicks....ba-a-a-a!) and Bach (whose only real talent can be found in a bottle of conditioner), I'd also include --
The Mackie gowns deserved top billing for the recent tour of Best Little Whorehouse instead of Ann-Margret, since they were the real stars of the show.
Both Liza and Rachel proved that there was no replacing Julie Andrews in Victor/Victoria. I just wish that Julie had a show worthy of what may be her last Broadway musical.
Ben Vereen really brought Fosse down and made the show alot less magical for me than when I saw the original cast.
Debbie Gibson in Les Miz. I didn't think Eponine was supposed to sing thru her nose.
Ally Sheedy in Hedwig -- Even Melanie Griffith as Roxie makes more sense.
Lou Gossett Jr in Chicago, thou if he were in it now, it would be fun to bet on who would run off the stage in fear first.
Stuggling film-makers (Rent), crafty lawyers (Chicago),and student revolutionaries (Les Miz) should never be cast from boy bands. That kind of pre-fab talent should be kept to Radio Disney.
Just my opinion.....
