Ugly Betty The Broadway Musical?
"Ugly Betty" is about to get gayer. Like that's even possible. Michael Urie who plays Marc on the show told a British radio station that an "Ugly Betty the Musical" might be in the works sometime soon.
He said, “They do want to do an "Ugly Betty" musical, a full-on Broadway musical, but it’s all hush-hush. I think it would be great, and they should use the cast from the show. I think we would all do it, although we maybe don’t dance and sing as well as professional singers and dancers. I think it would be fun for us to do it for a while, and then they could get real people in. They definitely want to do an episode that is a musical one, but then they want to do a full stage show. I think it’s a great idea. It would definitely work.”
Why did I picture him saying this without taking one breath?
Anyway, this is what happens in the world of show business. They strike gold with a show like UB and then find ways to completely fucking ruin it. The Broadway musical will be followed by a reality show, theme park ride and then a line of ponchos.
Although, if they insist on doing a Broadway musical they should get Jordin Sparks to play Betty. Every time I see Jordin on TV, I immediately confuse her with America Ferrera. They might be the same person.

Musicals are the new black.

Seriously, Mrs. Kravitz, I think it's all we can do at this point -- becuase they're all going to laugh at us!
This trend of making movies and now TV shows into musicals is disturbing. Broadway is becoming even more lazy and derivative with its lack of originality and creativity.
I'm waiting for "Apolcalypse Now!" -- the musical, with Gilbert Gottfried as Lt. Kurtz, Mary Louise Parker as Lance the surfer, Prince as Tyrone in the Larry Fishburne role, Kristen Chenoweth as Willard (Sheen's role), Clay Akin as Chef, and Nathan Lane in the Dennis Hopper photojournalist role. Gottfried screaming "the horror" in his special voice when Kurtz dies, would guarantee this piece of crap a Tony.
Do you remember "Carrie: The Musical"? It opened and closed in under one week. Here's the Wiki entry about it:

Christ on toast -- seriously there has to be better material out there!? Out of the billion playwrights in the world, we have to endure this crap?

Polaroids on the mantel will be next.
NO WAY! I ALWAYS confuse them too !!!
Ugly Betty sucks. No one looks like that! Even the nerdiest of the fug nerds. She looks more like a late 60's or 70s tv character from the 'Brady Bunch' or 'All in the Family'.
LMAO, Jordin Sparks as Ugly Betty!
~~~~~~~~~O_*~~~~~
the Ugly Betty MUSICAL la la la la la la fal la. :)yes!!!
Heh. Michael Urie looks EXACTLY like Owen Hargreaves (or vice versa). I'd like to see them swap jobs for like... six months. See if anyone notices. Drunk...

Did anyone cath Urie on Best Week Ever this past weekend? His one-man Jurassic Park was kinda funny in a weird way.

Vanessa Williams talked about there being a musical episode of UB during the writers strike.
