Tori Spelling is NOT a bad actress. She was a bit rough during the first season of 90210, but after that she was more than fine. On that short-lived WB series The Help, she was extremely funny. I think it's just in fashion to bash her, along with the Olsens and even Brooke Shields, who may not be a great musical theater star, but she's not a bad comedic actress.

Yes, Rath, Tori has her moments. Ever see her in that film with Parker Poesy where PP plays "Jackie Oh" -- what is that damned thing, it was a play. Anyway, Tori is actually even memorable in it. She may be awaiting her Sally Fields event -- a Norma Rae -- to move her forward.

Rath -
hon, it may be in fashion to knock Tori, but you lost all respect from me by even considering her a passable actress. She played her role in Trick well - the role of a girl who CANNOT ACT! I'm sorry, she was not ever ever passable in anything she did. For god's sake, she was in a tv movie called "Mother May I Sleep with Danger." Sorry, I think you are crazy. She can't act. No way. No how. Now be gone, before someone drops a house on you too.

Yeah she's done some crappy tv movies, but who hasn't? Pay attention to her good work, like was mentioned here, Jackie Oh, she was quite good in that. She's not a GREAT actress, so she won't be able to overcome crappy writing and directing, but with good material, she does quite well.

I could not disagree more. Eva is spinning in her grave. Patti LuPone just fainted. I think it is raining frogs.

Tori Spelling deserves to play Eva Peron about as much as Ally Sheedy does.

Because of that scene in Wicked, its not hard to picture JLT or Cheno as Eva Peron. At the present moment, I can't remember Eva's range, so I can't really pick out someone. Its odd, cuz I love ALW!

I did say that someone else said she looked like Eva...forgot who, but I heard somewhere...so I was bringing up the point that JLT would possibly make a great Eva.

Does osmeone here not know hwo Ally Sheedy is? Everyone knows she was much more attractive in THE BREAKFAST CLUB than Molly Ringwald.

I just breezed through and didnt see this name yet and am shocked. Shes sexy, she can act, she has the right look, and she has one of the meatiest high belts in years, two words people, JULIA MURNEY. Get her on Broadway in a power house role like that and watch out.

I think Julia Murney could definitely do it. Absolutely.

If they needed a celeb, Jessica Simpson could do it and kick ass ~ vocally anyway.
