Joey Fatone is actually a good performer.

"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.

Scary Spice, without a doubt, in RENT. I saw her twice, and was pretty horrified. More disturbing than her singing was her acting, however. "Angel was one of my closest friends," said with a thick British accent? Try again. This is Broadway.
On the wayyy other hand, Drew's made really good progress as Mark. He's not my favorite (probably not even top 10) Mark, but he's not bad at all.

What about AIDA? Toni Braxton, Michele Williams, Taylor Danye? Did anyone see them?
Or Beauty with Toni or Michelle Gayle? Heard it was pretty entertaining when Belle turns into a soul queen.....
Can you count Deborah Gibson as a stunt casting these days?

I saw Michele, and she was good. Her singing was better than her acting, and she tried to do this weird accent that would drop in and out. But, all in all it was a decent performance
