Voting has started. Let's try to keep it real, unlike last year with tons of undeserved nominations for the girls (and some guys) in Spring Awakening.

Posted: 5/8/08 at 8:33pmPrediciton- Grease wins a bunch of crap. And these awards are crap, by the way. And I always keep it real.

Posted: 5/8/08 at 8:38pmSomething tells me Sierra Boggess is going to win Best Actress... just a feeling.

Posted: 5/8/08 at 8:39pmNo, Christine Ebersole won (deservedly) last year for G.G. Maybe it'll go to La LuPone.

I'm thinking Grease, Little Mermaid and Spring Awakening will get some that aren't deserved.
I really don't know why I care so much, these don't really matter. lol!

Posted: 5/8/08 at 11:17pmOk here's a noodle scratcher...how was Lea Salonga not nominated for best replacement in Les Mis? Of course after Daphne's "performance", I think a dying cat would have been an improvement.

Posted: 5/8/08 at 11:44pmWho wants to bet that clay wins for breakthrough performance?
#11re: Broadway.com Audience Awards 2008
Posted: 5/8/08 at 11:50pmI was thinking the same thing about Lea Salonga. Was she maybe nominated last year since she took over for the role in February or March 2007?

Posted: 5/9/08 at 12:00amI think it's cute that Noah Weisberg is eligible for Best Featured Actor in a Musical for SOUTH PACIFIC.

Posted: 5/9/08 at 12:11amI haven't seen a lot of these shows...actually I haven't seen any of the new shows this season. I voted for Glory Days a few times because I feel sorry for that show.

Posted: 5/9/08 at 8:00amHow long has Jonathan Hadary been in Spamalot, because he is by far my favorite replacement. But he's not on the list, was he last time? They only have 5 listed for last season.
I killed the boss, you don't think they're gonna fire me over a thing like that!!!!
#19re: Broadway.com Audience Awards 2008
Posted: 5/9/08 at 10:41amI'm pretty sure I saw Jonathan Hadary in Spamalot last January (2007) so he was probably a part of last year's nominations.
