there's an article on Broadway.com saying she might do it NO I WONT LET YOU!
"It's a great feeling of power to be naked in front of people. We're happy to watch actual incredible graphic violence and gore, but as soon as somebody's naked it seems like the public goes a bit bananas about the whole thing."
I want to write music. I want to sit down right now at my piano and write a song that people will listen to and remember and do the same thing every morning...for the rest of my life. - Jonathan Larson. Tick, Tick...BOOM!
NOOOOOOOO PLEASE DONT LET HER!!! It was bad enough having Christy Carlson Romano...PLEASE ONLY LET BROADWAY SINGERS TAKE ON LEAD ROLES!!!!!!! :*-(
And the other thing about the Phantom Lady was, Bert, she realized, in the city that never sleeps...
What did she realize, Kitten?
That all the songs she'd listened to, all the love songs, that they were only songs.
What's wrong with that?
Nothing, if you don't believe in them. But she did, you see. She believed in enchanted evenings, and she believed that a small cloud passed overhead and cried down on a flower bed, and she even believed there was breakfast to be had...
Where?
On Pluto. The mysterious, icy wastes of Pluto.
I am not sure how I feel about this. I know she has the voice. How about the acting?

I don't like her because she stayed while my favorite AI3 contestant got booted off. I guess she is talented..she does have one hell of a range and I think she's better than Christy CR, but I'd prefer the Susan Egan types back.

The choosing was not...

honestly, I wouldnt mind Kelly, I think shes one hell of a singer
But I want Brooke to stay OR give the part to Michelle Federer- I think she'd be good!

And for Girlfortart... No one is BORN a Broadway singer. I think Diana has the voice and the charm.
"Do you know what pledge time is, Andrew"? said the PBS Executive.
"Yes", Lloyd Webber replied. "My 50th birthday special must be one program that gets done a lot."
"No", mused the man from PBS heedlessy. "Not so much. Our Stephen Sondheim Carnegie Hall concert. That's a big one."
Spoons, forks and knives seemed suddenly to suspend their motion in horror, all around the table.
Having grown up and performed alongside Mandy Moore I can attest to the fact that that girl belongs on the musical theatre stage! I always thought she was selling herself short by becoming a pop princess, but I'm certainly very glad that she seems to be moving out of pop and into acting. I can still remember her rendition of "Adelaide's Lament" all those years ago and how wonderful she was at conveying every nuance of the number. Now, please don't think me a shill...we personally never really got along, but I can give credit where credit is due.
BACK ON TOPIC... I don't think Diana would be a bad Belle, but I'm not so sure she could sustain eight strong performances a week. My biggest qualm with her on last season's "AI" was that she seemed to get nervous, tense up and scream.
My vote goes to Raven Simone for Broadway's new Belle.
no im kidding im sure it would but tickets are doing pretty well, no?

I think she might actually be good too. And just for the record, Christy Carlson Romano was in JRB's Parade on Broadway. I believe she was Mary. So, she does does have a legitimate Broadway credit to her name. That said, she was DREADFUL as Belle.
It could be way worse. She really isn't bad, and she's pretty cute. Just think about Christy Carlson Romano if you're going to complain about this, though.
Yes, ITF, she was in a couple of Broadway shows. But as I recall, the problem with her Belle is that she can't sing. We already know DeGarmo can sing. I was pointing out her professional theater credits in response to the question of whether she can act. At least we know she has some experience. I didn't know that prior to reading the article.
