Does that movie seriously have a following? I've never seen it, actually. I've been considering it, ever since Rosario got involved with RENT, actually.
I don't know if it's wide spread but at my high school it was a little out of control, everyone dressing as cats and such, plus i'm sure people are going to see idina in the cat suit and think it's a josie ripoff.
Anyone know if she actually sang in Josie, i know that Kay Hanley , from letters to cleo did the lead girls voice.
ha. That's a REALLY funny image.
I love Rosario, and grant it, I love Daphne, but I'm glad that Rosario is the replacement and not some Brittany Spears/Ashanti no-talent.
Rosario is going to KICK A$$!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I also think it's wonderful that Rosario is gaining much attention to this film. People are going to see this, and it will be a huge hit.
Well, quite frankly, I'm most interested in Rosario right now because the movie hasn't come out yet and she's the one that no one has seen perform the role -we all know what Idina, Adam, etc. are going to be like, but Rosario?
I'm curious gosh darn it!
i'm excited to see rtosario as well... but i am anxious to see Out Tonight - it might be softer and more seductive than the original which was more hard core and loud. but more than rosario, i am excited to see how the OBC have grown in acting ability, and how certain stage moments are translated onscreen (the fight between mark and roger, or teh recognition by roger that mimi is HIV pos, or when Angel gets sick.) things like that will be great to see as different or deeper interpretations.
rosario contributed vocals to the soundtrack of "josie", an outkast song and a re-mixed version of prince's "1999" entitled "rosario 1999".
she will be singing in the upcoming production of "two gentlemen of verona" at the delacorte theatre so those of you in NYC interested in hearing if she has any "vocal chops" should head on down there.

As for Rosario's vocals, I've been hearing nothing but wonderful things; by way of people I trust.
Without You is beautiful, and I can't wait to hear Out Tonight.
When i heard a clip of her singing 'without you' I began to have faith in her. But i love Daphen in Out tonight and i don't think that Rosario could sing out tonight like Daphen could.
Niiiiiiiiiice avatar. Very nice.
And let's face it. Nobody's going to sound like Daphne; her voice is one of the most unique I've ever heard. But that doesn't mean Rosario's can't be totally beautiful in its own way.
Two rogers ahhh *sighs*
True, Daphen has a extremly unique voice, so i geuss Rosario will never be able to sound like her. I'll miss Daphen as Mimi yet, i really am looking foward to seeing Rosario as Mimi. I am dieing to see how Adam and her work together.
rosario is the attraction for obvious reasons, but i wonder how she'll do...
I know alot of teens are probably going to see it because Rosario is in it, but i hope they get the message of RENT in the end.
I hope those two have boatloads of chemistry. ahhh.
Does Rosario really have that big of a "teen" following? I know she's more famous than the OBC members, but I never really thought her fanbase was one of all teenagers, or something. She's done a lot of good work, it seems; and not all stuff that would be geared toward teens.
Kind of off topic, but does anyone know when they update the rent movie site, i know it's every Monday and wensday but is it usually during the afternoon? I want to see Anothony do an Adam video interveiw (like he's been doing with the other cast members), though i don't know if Adam would do that...Lol.

I never thought that Rosario had that big of a following either, but apparently if your in Sin City, then you must be a pretty big star.
Actually, I have no idea... I just know she was in Josie and the Pussycats, Men in Black II... and other movies I guess people know her from.
"You look like your 16" 'I'm 19, and I'm old for my age'
I thought about those lyrics the other day, and I thought about how they could apply to this movie... interesting

Oh God, an Adam video blog would make my WEEK. I think it would be funny!
What do you mean, korenglish? About the "I'm 19..." line?

That the people in the movie are well over any of the ages mentioned in the movie... and they definitely don't look the ages said either. I could care less, but just a thought.
--korenglish
Well, they all look very young - so whatever. This is going to be the hottest film cast to hit the screen in a LONG time; they're all beautiful. Rosario's much younger than the rest of them, by the way - by almost ten years. I'm not sure how old Tracie is, but Rosario is definitely much younger than the OBC members.

wow... I honestly did not know that. It's exciting though, I definitely agree with you that the entire film cast is really hot. I love every single one of them, and I think remember seeing TMOLM with Tracie and Idina thinking... they are both hot, and very lucky.

if im not mistaken rosario is at the most 25 years old.
She was born in May of 1979, according to IMDB - so that makes her... 26.
yes. so she's about a decade, give or take a few years younger than the original OBC. she was at the most 15 or 16 when RENT premiered on Broadway.

wow that is really weird to think about now.
And about Tracie Thoms, I can't pretend to know anything about her... but she did mention in her blog that she auditioned for the part of Joanne during the OBC, and almost gave up Juillard for it...

Right, I remember almost having a heart attack when I realized that Rosario was almost nine years younger than Adam.
Why? I have no idea.
