Hello all! I came across this article from the New York Magazine that quotes broadwayworld.com members extensively, including me! Check it out!
That article was hilarious.

With all due respect, the article is from New York Magazine Online, not the print edition.
Yea for ljay898, GYPSY1527 and of course to americanboy99 for starting the thread!
Omg! I feel famous lol.
holy crap!! That is soo funny! And to most that thread became just one big joke, and here it is the focus of a magazine article! A link to the entire thread no less!

Well thank god they didn't mention all the people who suggested Harvey Fierstein take a swing at it!
LOL!!! I'm directly named in the article!
And yes, I wasn't serious when I suggested Sally Struthers. Though I loves her.
But I was serious when I seconded the idea of Patti Cohenour.
Did they actually announce when she was leaving?
I believe she is leaving in October.
Didn't I mention Cyndi Lauper? That bitch.

What? No mention of Patti LuPone? La Diva will be writing a very heartfelt (read: bitchy) letter about this oversight.

tee hee!
Dude! They left off my suggestions of Edie McClurg and Dianne Wiest, too. One was pipe-dream-serious, and one wasn't. I leave it to the individual to decide which is which.
i wasn't ushering her out the door! i'm just a realist.
I love how he assumes the suggestion of Struthers was a joke because of the poster's name. Does this mean that he takes the suggestions of Fantasia and Rosie seriously?
And we've made it this far without someone pointing out the misspelling of Chenoweth's name?
Who?
I don't know. Some big fat blonde.
Ha! I started the thread from which these quotes were found!
YAY me!
