It's official, Triple Sensation, the show I was on this fall, will be back for a second season. Producer Garth Drabinsky and the same Marquee Panel from Season one are back, and fiercer then ever*! And this year there are audition stops in even more Canadian cities. (Including Ottawa, which by-the-way was not on the roster last year, but is the city Jamie Hodgins and I are from...coincidence? I think not.) I cannot recommend auditioning enough to any performer. My experience with the show was nothing but positive and I can only assume that the second season will maintain the integrity and dedication to art that the first season had. I was treated with respect, and I felt the producers of the show were very fair and accurate in their depiction of all contestants. And you get to have a kick-ass time on TV. But if auditioning is not your thing, then I recommend you all watch the show, cause it's a family-friendly Sunday-night of performing arts on CBC, and who doesn’t LOVE a night like that?
So I was poking around Youtube today, as I so often do, and I happened to stumble across an account called "macsmith55" and he just happens to ave some of the most hilarious Wicked-Related Fan Vids I have ever seen. (And I have seen a lot of hilarious Wicked-Related Fan Vids...) This one has to be the highlight for me however, the lip-syncing skills these ladies sport would make Brittany crazy(er). From the costumes, to the incredible ensemble work, these ladies pull out all the stops. Highlights include: 1.The gal playing Elphaba, you can tell exactly how she feels about Glinda, watch very close for the almost too-real-to-handle push around 1:20. 2. The way the actress playing Glinda works the camera, especially on the word "strong". 3. The ensemble played by a life size, cardboard cut-out of what looks like David Boreanaz, brought to life by what looks like their mother.
It would not suprise me at all if these ladies dedicate their lives to "Wicked", "Buffy", (then "Angel"), and for a breif time in 2004, "Brklyn". Currently they are learning all the original choreo from a taped copy of the MTV broadcast of "Legally Blonde".
Hey! So this would be my first (official) Blog post! This is exciting. Since you have made your way here, I assume you have some idea who I am, and what I'm all about. If not, please feel free to take a look around, and see all of the other thing (yes thing) on my blog. Since I'm not sure what exactly you are looking for, I'm going to assume that it's a laugh. I can only hope that, like me, you enjoy a good 'ol hilarious video from the 'tube. This one is a perfect example of why some shows should be left in the hands of professionals...Enjoy.
As you may know, I was recently on a CBC television show called Triple Sensation, see official site here. This is a montage of some of my "on air" time. Enjoy! (And please stay tuned for my REAL blogging to start.)
