PREDICTIONS
Frangela: "Our predictions for 2009: We have seen the rise and fall of "Celebutards." Their reign was short and stupid, Frangela says it's the guys turn! Get ready because in 2009 it will be GGW-Guys Gone Wild. We believe we'll be seeing Shia Leboeuf, Daniel Radcliff and Zac Efron doing a bit of Guys Gone Wild. Plus isn't time for one of the Culkin boys to do something crazy?"
Melissa: "I think 2009 is the year that The Messiah comes, and by 'The Messiah' I mean Britney's comeback."
Chuck: "I'm hoping that pop culture will continue to be as popular as ever so that Best Week Ever can continue to be even more popular than it is. I also hope that for 2009 that celebrities continue to be as idiotic as possible so that I can stay employed."
AMY WINEHOUSE: HOT MESS
Frangela: "Our predictions on Amy Winehouse or as we like to refer to her, Amy "Crackhouse" are bigger and crackier. We expect to see MORE crazy Internet videos like the ones of her and the baby mice. Where is PETA when you need them?"
MILEY CYRUS'S PHOTO CONTROVERSY
Frangela: "You may not know, but Frances [half of Frangela] plays Roxy, Hannah Montan's body guard on the show and she will make sure that Miley keeps her clothes on because Frances needs a job!"
Christian: "Every time people want to make fun of poor Miley, they should remember one thing: her primary adult role model is Billy Ray Freakin' Cyrus. You try to 'keep it real' when your jackass dad sports blonde highlights and wears leather vests in public with no shirt underneath."
CLAY AIKEN HAS A KID?!
Christian: "This baby should give you faith that you can overcome any obstacle. You can't let the mere fact that you have absolutely no interest whatsoever in girls stop you from fathering a child, if that's your dream. Now I'm not saying that Clay Aiken is…oh wait, yes I am. I'm definitely saying that. Sorry, got confused there."
Chuck Nice: "Clay Aiken being a father is kind of like Chuck Nice giving birth to Asian children. And I mean, me literally giving birth. It's just that weird. What's he gonna be? A father in the closet? A closeted father? Like when people ask, 'Are those your kids?' is he gonna say, 'No, that's my cousin.'"
Frangela: "Gaykin is going to may a fantastic dad. Can you say American Idol 2025? Oh, yeah, get ready!"
Melissa Rauch: "Clay punched a paparazzi photographer for asking him what the name of his unborn child would be. I think it was a sensitive subject for him because the baby mama wanted to name it Christine if was a girl and Sam if it was a boy. Clay wanted to name it Sparkles."
Nick: "I think its great that someone like Clay Aiken can have a baby on his own. Not because he's gay but because he couldn't even beat Ruben Studdard so a kid's a huge accomplishment."
OOH AAH, MACBOOK AIR
Nick: "I like my computers like I like my ladies. Sleek, stylish and with an external hard drive that makes me carry 3 extra devices for it to work properly."
Chuck: "I bought a MacBook Air but then I dropped it down a drain so I'm never buying another one again. That's how thin it is."
SPEIDI MONTAG
Melissa: "Heidi said that she carries around make-up, a change of clothes and her bible in the Heidiwood bag she designed…Honestly, the Heidiwood bags are anti-Semitic if you ask me — I couldn't fit my Torah in that clutch!"
Chuck: "Every time I hear 'Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt' for some reason I say to myself, 'Who? Who?' And then I realize that they induce a particular form of Alzheimer's which is, 'I don’t want to know who you are.' That guy’s beard is creepy to me. You know, when you have a beard or a moustache that is the same color as your skin, shave! And Spencer better lay off Mary Kate Olsen. A lot of people don't know that the Olsen Twins are the original Children of the Corn. If you screw with them, they will scan your brain and cause your medulla to explode. Don't mess with the Olsens, buddy!"
IPHONE MAINIA!
Chuck: "I just love the fact that Apple is so brilliant that they can get people to pay twice as much for half as much and then come out with something else and just completely thumb their nose at the people who bought the first generation of iPhones. It's almost like a girl who you leave and then she loses weight and gets her teeth fixed and then flaunts it in front of you. That’s what Apple does. It's like, 'Oh you paid $600 for this phone. But you know, in a few months it's going be $200 and it'll do twice as much.' I'm gonna buy an iPhone when they come out with one that I can drive. That's when I'm buying an iPhone. Cause they will, they will, and I'm just waiting for it."
Frangela: "Come on admit it (we won't tell), you're jealous. Who knew a phone could elevate you to cool by just pulling it out. It has that sleek touch screen that let your fingers just glide across it while the rest of us are left punching buttons like cavemen. Yeah, we're jealous too."
Christian: "I am a sucker for all things Mac. In fact, I would probably buy a steaming pile of poo, if only it had a little lower-case "i" in front of it in the store. By the way, the iDeuce hits stores in March '09 — only $599!"
THE PREGNANT MAN
Frangela: "Look, we were confused by the pregnant man too, but we totally celebrated it and talk about a great birth story! Come on TLC — where's that birth story!"
Nick: "I think we already covered Clay Aiken...."
THE JONAS BROTHER EXTRAORDINAIRE
Nick: "I don’t know who the Jonas Brothers are but if I go online now to try and figure it out I feel like I'll get arrested for pedophilia. Like if someone to were to look at my Google search they'd be like, 'Oh that guy likes boys.'"
GOSSIP GIRL ADS, OMFG
Frangela: "We felt like we needed a note from home to even look at the Gossip Girl Ads Gone Wild! Every time we looked at them it felt like we were going to get sent to the principle's office."
Chuck: "You know those ads say 'Your Parents Worst Nightmare' or whatever, I'll tell you my worst nightmare as a parent, the movie Juno! Not a bunch of rich spoiled brats running around spreading gossip about one another."
AMERICAN IDOL SMACKDOWN 2008
Melissa: "My favorite moment was when Paula Abdul got confused and attempted to give notes on Jason Castro's song that he had yet to perform. You can't fault her. Paula has an entirely separate competition going on in her head: It's a showdown of valium verses Johnny Walker verses California nail salons all set to the tune of 'Dance Like There's No Tomorrow.'"
Frangela: "Forget Obama vs. McCain. The Battle Royale this year was Cook vs. Archuleta! It was the battle between cotton candy sweet and goth rock god. We love how everyone came out for Cook and were like 'We aren’t gonna get Sanjaya'ed this year!'"
Nick: "It's kinda hard to call something a battle between dudes who spend like 3 hours a day getting their hair tousled just right. This was the first year I watched AI from start to finish but it was more to see the battle between Paula Abdul and reality."
Christian: "David Cook did a bit with me on Best Week Ever and I can report that he's a genuinely nice dude. And funny to boot. Frankly, I found it rude. Note to celebrities: Please be obnoxious in real life — it’s a lot easier to make fun of you that way."
THE WORLD GOES GREEN
Nick: "I went green after seeing all the corporate pandering to going green...like nauseous green. Insert waa, waa."
Chuck: "I don't want to go green, I want to go gangrene. I want to lose a limb. I don't even know what that means....But apparently Kermit the Frog was wrong because it's pretty damn easy to be green."
LOHAN-RONSON LOVE
Chuck: "Lindsay Lohan is what I refer to as a carbon dated lesbian. She has a half-life and it gets shorter and shorter. That's all there is to it. It's only going to be a matter of time before she's back to guys. She's Anne Heche, it's only a matter of time before she switches teams again and then no one can trust her."
CELEBRITY RUNS TO REHAB
Melissa: "All of these young celebs were getting out of rehab and having to wear alcohol detection anklets. I thought those anklets were gonna be as trendy as the LiveStrong bracelets, so I got one. They didn't help the fight against cancer, but they were definitely a leader in the fight against drunk dialing."
KATY PERRY'S "I KISSED A GIRL"
Chuck: "I think the popularity of that song says that our generation has finally accepted mononucleosis as a common occurrence. Go ahead girls, kiss away!"
JUNO SYNDROME: YOUNG PARENTS
Chuck: "Black people have been doing this for years. All of a sudden it's en vogue because white people are doing it. I'm sorry, but we were the original progenitors of teen pregnancy. Now all of a sudden it's popular. But you know, Black people are cool. Whenever they do something it's only a matter of time before it catches on. Black women have big butts now everybody's got a big butt and it's cool. Black women have big lips, now everybody's getting big lips and it's cool. Black girls been getting pregnant at eight now all of a sudden it's all right."
HEROES, HEROES, HEROES, EVERYWHERE: BATMAN, IRON MAN, THE HULK, INDIANA JONES
Chuck: "Finally guys who live in their mom's basements and only have a cyber-girlfriend can get some respect. Because they knew all along what we're finding out which is that superheroes are cool."
TWINS
Chuck: "What these celebrities are not telling you is that they're not really giving birth to twins. They have enough money to clone one baby so that they don't have to have another one. That way they only have to be pregnant once. They're lazy. Listen, pregnancy is hard and these women are celebrities and they don't want to go through that so they're just like, 'Look, let's tell them we had twins and we'll clone this one. That way I don’t have to get pregnant again.'"
In this film twist on The Taming of the Shrew, a spoiled little sister says, "There's a difference between like and love. Because I like my Skechers, but I love my Prada backpack."

I'm sure you're all familiar with the hit MTV show MADE right? You know the show, the one that hooks up with adorable ugly-ducklings, lovable nerds, and primadonnas and turns them into beauty queens, star jocks, and motocross racers, respectively, of course. Well this week a very special episode is hitting the airwaves! Not one, but three girls are getting the chance this week to be remade into supermodels. Talk about chance of a lifetime! But only one can win. So, let's give a big round of applause for Anna Johnson, winner of MTV's MADE: Model Challenge.
And for your viewing pleasure, below is a sneak peek of the episode that is set to air this week!

Looks like Joe Jonas isn’t wasting any time after ending it (over the phone!) with our cover girl Taylor Swift. Celebitchy tells us that the 19-year-old middle bro has moved on to 22-year-old actress Camilla Belle , who starred in their “Lovebug” because all the guys agreed that she was really pretty. Who do you think is better for Joe: Taylor, Camilla, or you?
Wow. This is pretty unbelievable and sad — Dlisted tells us that a woman who claimed to be Paula Abdul’s number one fan died of a drug overdose in a parked car outside of the American Idol judge’s home. It is believed to be a suicide. Well, I will have to say that you must be pretty crazy to be Paula’s number one fan, but this is shocking. Horrible for the girl and her family and for Paula.
Apparently, Gossip Guy Penn Badgley doesn’t really relate to his lonely boy character Dan Humphrey. Pop Sugar tells us that he gets frustrated with how rigid Dan is in his morals and that he needs to loosen up. You’re totally right Penn! He also told us to get ready for a Gossip Girl death! God, the anticipation is killing me. Who do you think it could be?
Xoxo,
Megan

Happy Tuesday to all the Cosmogirls out there. You all know it wouldn't be a terrific Tuesday unless a good ole' fashioned catfight ensued in the celebrity world! In the left corner we have the saucy Christina Aguilera and in the right corner we have the sassy Lady Gaga! Trust me when I tell you, these ladies are ready to rumble! During this year's MTV Video Music Awards, many people criticized Christina's new, futuristic image because they say she's blatantly biting off of Lady Gaga's spacey demeanor. Well Christina isn't having any of that! According to Perez, Christina recently spoke with the LA Times and when asked what she thought Christina said, "You know, that’s funny that you mention that. This person [Lady Gaga] was just brought to my attention not too long ago. I’m not quite sure who this person is, to be honest. I don’t know if it is a man or a woman. I just wasn’t sure. I really don’t spend any time on the Internet, so I guess I live a little under a rock in that respect." Wow! She didn't know if she was a man or a woman? Hmmm, sounds a little catty to me, but what do you guys think? Is Christina out of line?
In happier news, Lindsay Lohan graces the cover of the December issue of Harper's Bazaar and looks completely gorgeous! Not only is she looking like her old self again, but the young glamazon is opening up and speaking truthfully about her relationship with DJ Samantha Ronson. "She's a wonderful person and I love her very much," Lindsay lovingly told the magazine about her DJ du jour. And when asked if she thought she was bisexual, Lindsay simply answered, "Maybe. Yeah." It's good to see Lindsay getting her life back together and looking great again too. Do you guys think Samantha is helping Lindsay get her life back in order?
MTV News is reporting that Britney Spears was in for a scare this past weekend when her two-year old son, Jayden, was admitted to a hospital in Mississippi after he had a terrible allergic reaction to something he ate. The youngster stayed in the hospital overnight and was released yesterday with a clean bill of health. Thank goodness lil' Jayden is doing well after that quick scare!
Peace Out,
CosmoDude Mike
Check out our Born To Lead issue to find out how our cover girl became a self-made success. Here, she opens up about her secret obsessions, her rough high school years, and why she's proud to be a good girl.
A LOT OF YOUR SONGS ARE ABOUT RELATIONSHIPS THAT DIDN'T WORK OUT. WHAT ADVICE WOULD YOU GIVE TO OTHER GIRLS WHO ARE GOING THROUGH HEARTBREAK?
Your feelings so are important to write down, to capture, and to remember because today you're heartbroken, but tomorrow you'll be in love again. And you'll appreciate it more when you can go back and read your journal and realize that the happiness you have is special because yesterday, you cried. I'm so lucky that I get to look at journals from when I was 13 and wanted [a singing career] so bad, but never thought that I would be able to have it, or to get to be on the cover of CosmoGirl.
SO YOU DIDN'T EXPECT SUCCESS?
No! The reason I was so driven was that I didn't expect that anything would just happen for me. But that doubt fueled me to work harder. My attitude was the opposite of people who are like, "It's gonna happen for me. It's gonna happen for me." My mantra was always, "It's not gonna happen for me. Go out and play that show or it won't happen." You know? I never expected anything to be given to me.
NOW THAT YOU'VE BECOME SO SUCCESSFUL, WHAT MAKES YOU HAPPY?
What makes me happy is just curling up in with my mom in her bed and watching a marathon of CSI and Grey's Anatomy episodes with pints of ice cream. It's amazing when we get to do that. I think that what people always want is what they don't have a lot of, and the thing that I haven't had a lot of lately is getting to curl up in bed and watch a marathon of my favorite shows!
YOU'VE TALKED ABOUT HOW ALL OF YOUR FRIENDS IN MIDDLE SCHOOL DESERTED YOU ONE DAY. HOW DID THAT AFFECT THE PERSON YOU ARE NOW?
I think the tiniest little thing can change the course of your day, which can change the course of your year, which can change who you are. I'm not quite sure how it affected me to lose all my friends and have to walk into school and go at it alone, but I can only hope that it made me a stronger person. And I got to write songs about it — my first songs were written because of trying to deal with that emotion. I will never be able to thank those people enough because it's like, you can't write a song if you're not feeling anything, and sometimes, even though you have to be feeling pain, it's worth it in the end. But it's so funny because even when I go back to high school now, when I go back to functions like a football game or a band concert or something like that, it doesn't matter how many people come up and ask me for my autograph, if I see like one of those popular people, I still feel like my hair is frizzy and people are looking at me.
YOU'RE KNOWN FOR BEING CAREER-FOCUSED AND NOT PARTYING. DO YOU CONSCIOUSLY TRY TO STAY AWAY FROM THAT SCENE?
No, I'm just being myself. I'm not a party girl at this point in my life. It's not a priority for me. I have to get up early and do interviews and I have to sing every night. I don't have any interest in going out to clubs right now. I love people, and I love socializing, I just don't have any interest in being drunk. I don't worry about [people who say I'm too much of a good girl] because the people who say that, it's like, wow, you are really trying to find something you don't like about me. And, honestly, if somebody wants to criticize me for not being a trainwreck, that's fine with me!

SAINT HEAVEN at the Village Theatre
If you're looking for a great date idea, try going to the theater. Going to a live production gives you the opportunity to dress up and try something different. And, there are a ton of different options besides the traditional play (like Blue Man Group, Stomp, and Avenue Q). If you pick out a good show to see, there will be lots of stimulating conversation afterwards. Plus, it’s even more romantic to put some thought behind your date plans than just seeing Hollywood’s latest blockbuster.
If you live in the Seattle area, you should check out this musical in Everett, WA. It was written by CosmoGirl's own Keith Gordon!
The new American musical, Saint Heaven is currently on stage at the Village Theatre in Everett, WA. Join audiences from around the Pacific Northwest who are enjoying simmering gospel, soaring ballads, and earthy country music that give life to a passionate tale of courage, faith, and coming home. Saint Heaven, Kentucky, 1957: Young doctor Thom Rivers returns to his hometown for his father's funeral, intending only to settle affairs and move on. But when he's faced with the friends and family he left behind, and he falls for a charismatic young woman with a special spiritual gift, he's forced to choose between his new life and the old home town that needs him.
Composer and lyricist Keith Gordon wrote the score for this brilliant new musical work. Teamed with book writer Martin Casella, the story truly takes flight on Village Theatre’s intimate stage. Previously seen at the New York Musical Theatre Festival, where it received the Director’s Choice honor, and at TRU New Musicals Festival, where it received the Best of Festival honor, Saint Heaven is both invigorating and uplifting. Come see the cast Seattle Weekly has deemed, “largely sensational, with standout performances everywhere.”

Well ladies and gentlemen, it looks like a pop royalty reunion of sorts took place last night in Los Angeles! Last time we saw Britney Spears and Madonna together they were busy locking lips like two high-schoolers at the senior prom, but last night at the Los Angeles stop of Madonna's "Sticky and Sweet Tour" the two pop powerhouses took the stage together for a few moments to perform one of Madge's classic tracks, "Human Nature." And as if that wasn't enough, Justin Timberlake even took the stage with the original material girl to perform their latest collaboration, "4 Minutes." Though it's always a treat to see Mr. Timberlake tear up the stage when he performs, it's even sweeter to see Ms. Spears getting back out there and hitting the stage to show the world why they fell in love with her in the first place.
And while we're on the subject of sweet reunions, it looks like the chances of a Sex and the City movie sequel is definitely/possibly going to happen...depending on who you ask that is! According to Perez, in a recent European interview, Kim Cattrall said that the ladies were most-definitely getting together next summer to begin shooting the sequel to the blockbuster film. After hearing that Cattrall had spilled the beans on the sexy sequel, Sarah Jessica Parker issued a statement saying, "I’m thrilled to know Kim is excited but all the deals are not yet done. With ‘the wind on our heels,’ we hope to make it a reality." All I know is I hope those negotiations work themselves out pretty quick because the world needs to know the next chapter of Carrie Bradshaw and her crew of lovely ladies! Are you looking forward to the possibility of a Sex and the City sequel?
You can now add two more celebs to the "wedded bliss" category for 2008! According to Perez, just weeks after her "official" split from Hugh Hefner, Kendra Wilkinson (everyone's favorite tomboy on The Girls Next Door) has gotten engaged to her football player boyfriend, Hank Baskett. Wow, those girls next door don't waste any time hooking up with new, young fellas do they? Best wishes to the couple though, I'm sure ESPN will be on 24/7 in that household!
Peace Out,
CosmoDude Mike
While Barack Obama was busy becoming our president-elect, the stars were out and about and running their mouths. Say what?!
Robert Pattinson, or vamp-god Edward Cullen, hung out at Planet Hollywood Tuesday to donate some Twilight memorabilia to the NYC hot spot. The jaw dropper had some shocking news for Twi-hards: he's Team-Jacob!
According to JustJared.com, R. Patts admitted that if he got to choose Bella's one and only, his vote would go to the werewolf. "Jacob is way more interesting," he says. "If you have a girlfriend that's like Edward...yeah, you're hot and everything, but just shut up." We at CosmoGirl beg to differ. (P.S. Ladies, only 15 days 'til Twilight hits theaters!)
If you haven't heard, Grey's Anatomy gave their cardio-queen, Dr. Erica Hahn, the boot. Tonight marks Brooke Smith's final performance as Dr. Hahn. Rumor has it that the hot and heavy love between docs Erica and Callie was a little too much for ABC execs to handle.
Patrick "McDreamy" Dempsey snuck out of Seattle Grace on his lunch hour to discuss with talk show host Ellen DeGeneres. After giving Dr. Hahn the ax, Dempsey said, "ABC actually sends me over what I should [say]...ABC's response...is that [I] should say: 'We’ve had a great time working with her and that the conclusion of her [character] has been orgasmic' — I'm sorry, I'm dyslexic! — 'organic' ending to the story line.' " How's that for racy, ABC?
And in an Ellen show airing on November 11th, country cutie Taylor Swift lets DeGeneres in on her own secret. On breaking up with the "mannerly" Joe Jonas, Taylor says, "You know what, it's like, when I find that person that is right for me, he'll be wonderful. When I look at that person, I'm not even going to remember the boy who broke up with me over the phone in 27 seconds when I was 18." 27 seconds? Ouch! Joe, my dear gentleman, "you're just another picture to burn."
Are you Team-Jacob? Are you disappointed that Grey's scrapped the lesbian love line? Have you had a worse break up than Taylor? Spill.
I (Heart) Hollywood.

My name is Emily, and I'll admit it: I'm a video game addict. So when I found out I won the Xbox Global Crew contest featured on CosmoGirl.com, you know I was ecstatic! My prize included a trip to New York City, an Xbox gaming console, a ton of games and a digital camera. I'd never been to New York before this trip, so that was the clincher for this amazing surprise. Once all the travel information was set straight, I was set and ready to go, hardly knowing how amazing this was going to be. After a long flight, including a plane transfer in Atlanta, we arrived in New York City, and I was instantly shocked. I'd never seen so many people in my life! After a day of sightseeing then some well-deserved rest, the day came for the Xbox 360 Gen Next event. Microsoft created this event to showcase their newest and most popular games. For me, the best parts were the tour around the event before anyone else got there, five hours in a room full of video games, meeting other gaming teens, and eating the delicious finger foods. After a long 'jam session' on Rock Band 2, I was coaxed away to take another tour around the room, this time with Rose and Laura (both web interns) from CosmoGirl.com. Then I interviewed Heather, a director from Xbox. She told me this whole event took about 4 months to pull together. I just want to thank CosmoGirl and Microsoft for this wonderful opportunity and to the good people at Xbox, if you ever need a game tester you know where to find me.
Did everyone have a fun Halloween? I know I did, and it certainly looks like Heidi Klum did too. I mean, look at her amazing costume. She definitely went all out as a six armed Hindu god for her annual Halloween bash. Other celebs at the party included Pink, Jessica Alba, and Project Runway winner Christian Sariano as Cruella De Vil. What did you dress up as?
So we’ve all heard horror stories about the paparazzi. Hello Princess Diana. Well now, Just Jared tells us that Jessica Simpson has a story to tell. As her and her BFF/hair dresser Ken Paves were leaving dinner in LA this weekend, they were attacked by the paparazzi. Lucky for Jess, Ken was there to protect her — but not so lucky for him, in doing so he got hit in the head with a camera and had to rush to the hospital where he got nine stitches!
Hottie actor and Mr. Scarlett Johansson, Ryan Reynolds, ran in the NYC marathon yesterday and finished in under four hours. That is pretty impressive. Celebitchy tells us that Ryan raised over $80,000 in contributions for Parkinson’s disease research through Michael J. Fox’s Team Fox. Ryan’s dad suffers from the disease as well. Wow, Scarlett, you should be one proud newlywed.
Xoxo,
Megan

What happens when while innocently riding the R train to work, you bump into your Broadway crush?
Don't lie: I know you have the Phantom of the Opera soundtrack on repeat, too. You can work those jazz hands better than any Chicago cast member, and you're just as popular as Wicked's Glinda for it. No? Really?? Well, find it in yourself to embrace my New York City spirit and my love of Broadway.
Last week, much like any other Thursday afternoon, I hopped the subway to work. Little did I know that I would be sitting across from none other than Broadway babe, Patrick Wilson! (I won't hold my breath this time.) Patrick, who was classically trained in musical theater at Carnegie Mellon, was in the movie adaptation of Phantom of the Opera with Emmy Rossum and Little Children with Kate Winslet. Casually toying with his Blackberry while smiling at street performers, Patrick sat quietly, anonymous to those around him, until he finally got off at the 49th Street station stop.
The stop is just a few blocks away from the Gerald Schoenfield Theatre, where Patrick is currently starring in a revival of Arthur Miller's All My Sons. If you think you're unfamiliar with this snippet of Masterpiece Theater, think again. Patrick is featured alongside Ms. Katie Holmes, or Mrs. Tom Cruise.
Katie isn't the first Hollywood star to walk the Great White Way. Ashlee Simpson played Roxy in Chicago, Aubrey O'Day was Amber in Hairspray, and even Clay Aiken has a part in Spamalot! Still, celebs tend to get a bad wrap when it comes to stage skills.
Thus far, Katie has been receiving lackluster reviews from theater critics and audiences alike. She's been called everything from "the pretty girl in the high school play" to downright untalented. Meanwhile, her other cast members, including John Lithgow and Diane Wiest, are being overlooked. After dedicating themselves to eight live performances a week, it seems unfair for the cast to receive such a serious beating.
Can Tinseltown take the Tonys, or should Hollywood starlets be banned from the Hudson River Line?
Love and all that jazz...
