You know, i've always been sceptical of Liisi....when she was cast the first thing i did was research her having never heard of her. Came across a lot of youtube vids of her covering songs and performing in talent shows ect and have always been worried that her voice seemed pretty weak and under powered and she seemed to have no real acting or stage experience.....
It's possible she will really grow into things though i suppose and i shouldn't just judge based on a report and not even seeing her yet.

I just don't know how she got cast, when everyone around her is so brilliant. I felt nervous watching her as she really cannot sing it. The title number being a particular car crash vocally. It's brutal but she should be replaced. She's that bad. Her acting is fine, but on a stage of sensational voices, she sounds like a bad X Factor audition.

Which category will Amber R be eligible for at the Oliviers?
If it's Supporting, it's in the bag. If it's in the leading category- I honestly think she's so stunning in this, and London has never heard vocals like this, that she could possibly beat Glenn Close to that too.

I agree she'll 100% win if it's supporting but I think it's more likely to be leading. She'll be up against Glenn and Sheridan too so that category is certainly going to be the strongest! |

Could be either I guess. At the Tonys the role was leading alongside Deena (Jennifer Holliday winning over Sheryl Lee Ralph) but at the Oscars the role was deemed Supporting when Jennifer Hudson won it. I'd guess they'll go with Lead Actress at the Oliviers. Amber has definitely been pushed and promoted as the lead so far. |

Entered the lottery for tonight. Fingers crossed Did you win Alece? Unfortunately not. Never win anything. Never mind as the weather forecast for tonight is awful anyway. Going to try again for Wednesday, so no one else try please as I want a free run lol. |
