Posted: 1/28/08 at 10:15pmWho are the performers that you completely love and support, no matter what (excepting maybe murder charges, maybe not). For me, it's Idina Menzel. I acknowledge that some of her fans are scary, that she didn't sound great at the end of Wicked, that she looked like an alien in Enchanted, and that she may be a diva, but nonetheless, I adore her. Any others?

I second Idina :) I don't even know what exactly it is about her, to tell the truth, as there are probably plenty of people who are just as good- if not better- than her. But she's just so... captivating? I don't know.. something about her is just amazing. haha

Wanna Be A Foster, I know she's having a concert tomorrow, but I go to college in Chicago, and have no way to get there, which fully blows. But knowing her fans, the whole thing will be posted on "thesite" before she gets home.
*edited because in a post where I state I go to college, I should spell words correctly*

For me the top two would have to be Raul Esparza and Sherie Rene Scott. Every time they are on stage it is exhilarating to watch and each one fills each and every moment of stage time. I think they're both pretty brilliant.
Cheers,

"that she looked like an alien in Enchanted, and that she may be a diva, but nonetheless, I adore her. Any others? "
Ew. This is extreme, and untrue.
LOL, but I'm a fan who acknowledges the other, true, things.

Mine would have to be Dee Hoty.
I supported her through Best Little Whorehouse Goes Public and saw Mamma Mia twice (in two cities!) just to catch her on stage.
I'd watch her open a door. And, by the way, I was happy to run into her playing a judge on Law and Order this past Wednesday!

Posted: 2/1/08 at 10:23pmstupidmansuit, for the record, I think she is beautiful, but in Enchanted, I don't know if it was her hair or what, but she looked weird. And she has never been anything but kind to me, but I was saying that even if the rumors of her "diva-hood" are true, it wouldn't matter to me.

Kerry Butler for me.. she's amazing I'd support her in anything she does.
We can add Idina, and Cheyenne to that list too.

Gotta be:
Kristin Chenoweth - for talent, cuteness and sense of humour.
Cheyenne Jackson - talent and sex appeal.
Rachel York - talent and class.
Bernadette Peters - talent, warmth and emotional connection with an audience.

Patti Lupone
There is just something about her that makes me love her, even when she's not so lovable.
