I am on the "NO to Peter Pan" team for sure! Also, they will go for some huge name anyway (like Beibs, or one of the 1D boys, or whomever ...) I am sure singing ability is not a priority anyway... Chris C. would be a great choice, fits like a glove IMO! I don't think Beiber and has any acting experience apart from playing himself and I can't imagine him doing comedy or 'camp'. Did any of 1D do any musical theatre previously? Bieber was a guest star in CSI or Criminal Minds. He wasn't playing himself but that could be argued, lol. It was some kind of juvenile delinquent arrested from a car, later shown in an orange prisoner outfit, questioned and taken away. I remember how the scenes looked like but nothing specific of the plot (typical me). Anyway it was a small part with not much of screen time. ETA Oh, two episodes you say, ok. My impression too is that he was fine. |

Carry who is wooden and inexpressive and projects absolutely no emotions. Even her smile looks cold. Supposedly she can sing - but next to the exquisite talent that is Audra McDonald it was an excruciating experience. SO WHAT? The ratings were SUPERB and the networks are rushing too repeat the "formula", which is: cast a superstar and the masses will tune in.  |

Yay, LMD most requested (ie clicked) today on NRJ Finland!  www.nrj.fi/top10On the right, there's a headline 'NRJ TOP10 -LISTA 5.5.2014' (=top10 May 5) and LMD is nr one. What's on left and big is only the situation at the moment, it's a daily vote and they play the tracks at 18.00. I was buying shelves today and didn't hear what they said. But I did hear one play on saturday just before noon. It started with the six guitar notes and singing, sounded great. Waiting for other stations to pick it up, ATY is still doing fine. Also saw on twitter that LMD was played on Highweld station in Johannesburg, South Africa. Good! |
