Broadway Queen--thats me

Well last night I was in my "theatre glory" with the brand new season of Glee.  Kids, I absolutely adore this show more than breathing, I have it bad. Maybe it is because I am a "Broadway Queen" as they say but there isn't anything better than a great story with great music that you leave singing when you leave the theatre. Besides as a Broadway Queen you get your own tiara .  Kidding!

With a guest appearance by Charice, the Filipino girl featured on Oprah a few times, Charice plays a girl named Sunshine.  I was once again in love with this 16 year old girl with the voice of a grown woman.  Charice first preformed part of the Lady Gaga hit Telephone. 

Charice/Sunshine was fierce, to fierce actually for character Rachel who turns in to Miss Uber b*tch and sends poor Sunshine to a crack house for her audition.  Well kids you don't f*ck with diva's.  Trust me I know being a diva at time myself. 

Our girl Sunshine belts out one of my favorite songs of all time "Listen".  I know I have posted this song twice before but kids there is something that she brings to this song that I have not gotten before.  It is of course from the story line, it is the whole I know you sent me to a crack house because I threaten you well TOUGH SH*T!  Because b*th I am going deliver it and boy does she.  This kind of "F" you done with a song and all attitude.



Of course Rachel realizes she has been a first class jerk and decides to put her regret into song as well.



I bring this whole thing up because sometimes we just have those days where we want to be the uber b*tch for no real good reason at all.  Maybe the whole thing has been building for a long time and it just feels good to let the witch out.  Claws flying, attitude soaring, bitchiness in full force and we are embracing it and celebrating it.  Then we regret it.  At height of the moment it feels great, feels powerful and I guess my day was yesterday. I didn't blow up, but I probably over reacted.  Thank god no one was there to see me do it.  I have the good sense to keep my head in public and than lose it when I am by myself.  That way I am not embarrassed.

Oh well. I guess we all have moments where we have melt downs.  Thankfully mine are not that often and are hardlyever public.  Well kids thanks for the time we have had together.

More thoughts on Taylor Hicks and me

I don't want people thinking I was being a "big bitchy drama queen" about Taylor Hicks, I would just assume that if "they wanted you to buy his CD first" they would have announced it from the stage thats all. When I asked about meeting him the "bitchy" manager said rather snottily "If you want him autographing anything you have to buy the CD.  Thats when I asked we can't just say hello? Maybe the manager should have thought I didn't want an autograph, maybe I just wanted to meet him, say Hi I am a fan of yours and I enjoy your music. Once again told rather snottily "No, you have to buy a CD" and she stormed off--- in  a cloud of green smoke I swear to g-d .  Then the whole Taylor Hicks look as I know he heard me asking about just meeting him and nothing more, as no one other than Jim, the manager, and a Playhouse volunteer were standing there near him.  It just realy rubbed me the wrong way.  I would understand if it had not been for all the flying attitudes, and believe me mine wasn't one of them as that is not my style in public, my thoughts were not until I did the post here. 

Maybe I was in the wrong just wanting to meet someone, but I have meet slews of big name people including but not limited to the incredible Dame Elizabeth Taylor, Former Vice President Al Gore and had lunch with the late Seantor Ted Kenedy in the Seantors Dining Room to name just a few.  So I know it isn't me.  

I have paid once to meet someone and it was Martha Stewart at Williams Sonoma but WS made it very clear in order to meet her you had to buy her newest book and then only 300 people would meet her.  Well I was number one in that line and honey Martha was a delight.  But you know something Williams Sonoma had to make their money back somehow, someway. Like I said it just really sat wrong for some reason.  Well I just wanted to clear that up and once again I am sorry if I came off as bitchy, that wasn't the intention.
