Thanks. I found a video (not youtube). She looks and sounds amazing! I can't wait for a new project for her on Broadway.

Hey whatever happened to Lea Salonga and Wicked? In her Carnegie Hall concert last year she mentioned that she wanted to be in Wicked. She sang Defying Gravity and Popular in her concert.

I'd be really disappointed if Lea choses to be in Wicked.

Anyways, that was amazing! =)

I love Lea's voice in this one. Reminds me of her Disney and early Miss Saigon days.

AnaGFan, Lea did mention something about that but according to her agent, she really couldn't do it because of the pregnancy back then. And now, she seems to be quite busy in Asia. There was a rumor of an Asian production so, we'll see what happens to that rumor.

Any truth to the post in one of the Les Miz threads here that she is in negotiations to play Fantine?

For her to be Fantine would be amazing!

I am not sure about the Fantine rumor, though I am sure she will be great if it is true. I did write a message to her, on her blog, asking about the rumor. Lea hasn't said anything yet, though I imagine she will when/if there is anything worth saying when she is able.
