"I did see her - I was given a house seat even thought it was in the back-"
A house seat in the back? watchutalkinabout?

Posted: 7/1/13 at 6:18pmI love playing around and being stupid. This weekend a friend told me I inspire naughtiness in him when I'm around. Yay!

Posted: 7/1/13 at 6:18pmIf Wendy Williams want's to go outside of her comfort zone, that's fine. Just don't do it on Broadway's dime, baby.

Posted: 7/1/13 at 6:21pmBroadway producers are the ones who sought her out to be in the show to begin with, not the other way around. It wasn't as if Wendy begged them to put her in the show. They were banging on her door to make that dime you speak of, love.

Posted: 7/1/13 at 6:22pmWell, yes, it is the producers fault. Wendy is as much of a victim as the audience, really.

@lovebwy
I mean, she's not leaving anytime soon (well until August), so why complain? It's not like she's going to be fired and replaced immediately by the producers and a new Mama will take the stage on Tuesday...

Posted: 7/1/13 at 7:01pmExactly. She should at least give out some grape soda to people, right?

This whole Wendy Williams thing is really ticking some people off, isn't it? Like others have said, it's not like this is the first time a show has ever stunt cast and it won't be the last.
If you don't like her or you want to see her in it, don't go see the show. Seems simple enough to me.

Posted: 7/1/13 at 7:34pmExactly. What's the big deal? I'd be more worried that the show is in sloppy shape after all these years than in the usual Weissler stunt casting. They will cast a singing can of soup if they think it will sell a ticket.

Posted: 7/1/13 at 8:31pmI'm sure she's a lovely woman but she don't belong on Broadway, BABY. Broadway don't go in for that sort of stuff.

It would appear Broadway very much goes in for that sort of thing considering its long history of high-profile replacements (some with stage experience, some not) going all the way to the golden age.
Cool it with the personality changes for the evening, Miss Lawson.

Posted: 7/1/13 at 8:46pmLovebway, you have once again proved yourself to be a shrill, screeching, ranting lunatic, BABY. But at least every thread you are on is entertaining because it never ceases to amaze what a dumb-ass you are, over and over and over and over and over and over again. Keep up the good work.

Matt I very much regret whatever it was I did to incur your wrath.
If you think that Wendy Williams is good in that clip then more power to ya. LOL

Posted: 7/1/13 at 9:32pmEven though she's not passing out Slim Jim's and grape soda?

Broadway doesn't go for slims and grape. Not LB's Broadway!

Okay, well apparently Broadway "do," since she's in the show. BABY.

Posted: 7/1/13 at 9:41pmWell I personally am appalled by the behavior of some audiences, and that includes eating during performances.
Wendy Williams to play Morton in CHICAGO#171
Posted: 7/1/13 at 9:50pmIs that why you think her audience will come to the theater eating Slim Jim's and drinking grape soda?
Wendy Williams to play Morton in CHICAGO#172

One of her funny bits is heating up a Slim Jim with a lighter and eating it. I was making a joke that her fans in particular would follow suit.
Including grape soda was a mistake as I can see how that might be misunderstood and I apologize to anyone who have taken it the wrong way.

Posted: 7/1/13 at 9:57pmThat statement is like discount tuna fish - I don't buy it.

Jordan I'm sorry that you don't buy it. I don't exactly know why you wouldn't.
I just don't think Wendy Williams belongs on Broadway. Clearly there is absolutely zero stage presence there.
They should get Teri White who was so wondaful in Follies, to play that role!!
