Eh. I've always been able to tolerate Usher, but not to the point where I think he'd be a match for Broadway. He'll be able to pull if off, no doubt, but how perfect it will be, I don't quite know.
In related news, it seems as if without a big name, the producers feel like Chicago will close. I don't know if this is true or not, but it sure as hell might be. If the top three bills aren't filled by a Hollywood-known name, then the show will apparently flop. Boo!
