Posted: 4/21/10 at 5:19pmI thought it was pretty good. I can't believe they let her strip on tv so early in the day. Granted, it's pretty tame, but it seemed like a performance that would have been more acceptable for the prudes on one of the late night shows.

Posted: 4/21/10 at 5:30pmI had the same thought I usually have when I see her - she has to be one of the most beautiful creatures who has ever lived. She just turned 47, and looks like THAT!

I agree, Q. I was astounded to see how gorgeous she looks when I saw her in the show. Wow!

she is absolutely stunning and so articulate in interviews.
it sort of surprises me about her complexion. she was a part of an infomercial for bad skin and up close you can see it. i know that doesn't matter a whole heap, but was just surprised.

Posted: 4/24/10 at 12:46amShe's fantastic! I think she's making some serious ground to make up for her witch in this show.

Posted: 4/24/10 at 2:17pmI liked when she was stripped from a nightie to an equally sized and shaped nightie. Racy!

Posted: 4/25/10 at 10:00amVanessa Williams's work on Sondheim on Sondheim far surpasses her work in Into the Woods. She's sounding great and I think that this kind of material - along with other songs she sings in the show (like "Losing My Mind") - suits her better than the Witch's songs. While I'm not crazy about the fact that this number is basically Williams and a handful of boys - one of the reductions that unfortunately goes part and parcel with the revue format - the number is better suited to a generic revue setting than it was in London's Follies, where it was a compromise made for the actress and the production, one that only served to remind those who know better that it's a substitute for a song that works better for both the character and the show. I can't believe it still ends up in productions of Follies today. So, yes, I enjoyed Williams's performance on Live! with Regis and Kelly and I also found it quite amusing that Regis seemed a bit worked up at the end of the song.

Posted: 4/25/10 at 2:19pmWhat do you think she was still wearing after she disappeared off-camera and threw the costume back to the boys? The dressing gown - and Regis's reaction - indicates it was not much.

Posted: 4/25/10 at 2:23pmShe was wearing no less than when she scampered out of camera range.
