The CMA Awards Red Carpet Looks That Stole the Show!

Leave a comment

CMA Awards are no doubt one of the most esteemed country music awards show in the industry. It’s 53rd annual show had some pretty rocking red carpet looks, along with some of our favorite people! It’s always fun to see who shows up to present awards and to get some non country artists there! Here’s a look at some of our favs in no particular order (except for Jennifer Nettles because obviously she won).

If the front of her gown which says “Play our (women in country) f@#!n records please & thank you” wasn’t good enough, wait til you see the back statement of “equal pay”

Former ‘Wicked’ Co-Stars, Idina Menzel and Kristin Chenoweth Are Dropping Albums on the Same Day!

Leave a comment

Is anyone else freaking out? The formed Wicked Broadway stars, Idina Menzel and Kristin Chenoweth are both dropping new albums… on the same day! September 23 is the magical date where our ears will be blessed with greatness!

Embed from Getty Images

 

Chenoweth is set to star in Hairspray Live! this December alongside an amazing cast!

She had been teasing about another announcement and at last she announced a new album: The Art of Elegance.

The album is not one of personal songs but her renditions of timeless classics. Chenoweth is excited to put out an album of some of her favorite songs, saying: 

“Of course I love to sing songs that people know. Songs that we’ve heard before are like our DNA; we know them in our hearts. Honoring the singers who have sung this repertoire is the most challenging part of the process, singing it from my heart and my perspective and my experience. It’s a challenge, but it’s a fun one. In every song I sing, I must find my own phrasing, down to the final breath. A lot can be said in a breath or a pause.”

TRACK LIST:
Someone to Watch Over Me (3:04)

(George Gershwin-Ira Gershwin)

I’ve Got a Crush on You (feat. Dave Koz) (2:54)

(George Gershwin-Ira Gershwin)

Let’s Fall in Love (3:12)

(Harold Arlen-Ted Koehler)

Bewitched, Bothered and Bewildered (5:00)

(Richard Rodgers-Lorenz Hart)

Zing! Went the Strings of My Heart (3:21)

(James F. Hanley)

The Very Thought of You (feat. Dave Koz) (4:24)

(Ray Noble)

They Can’t Take That Away From Me (3:20)

(George Gershwin-Ira Gershwin)

A House Is Not a Home (4:08)

(Burt Bacharach-Hal David)

I Get Along Without You Very Well (4:27)

(Hoagy Carmichael)

Skylark (4:41)

(Johnnie Mercer-Hoagy Carmichael)

I’m a Fool to Want You (5:38)

(Frank Sinatra-Jack Wolf-Joel Herron)

Smile (3:11)

(Charlie Chaplin-John Turner-Geoffrey Parsons)

You’re My Saving Grace… (2:51)

(Steve Tyrell-Stephanie Tyrell-Barry Coffing)

Menzel also posted about her new album coming out on September 23 and it’s self titled! She says her new album Idina is her most personal yet!

On having a self-titled album she says: 

“I want you to know me on a first-name basis, I guess. I poured my heart out and used my music as a place to kind of figure some things out. It’s a really personal album.”

She joked about her name being butchered a lot and even how John Travolta messed it up a little more recently (Adele Dazeem). 

There’s a little period after it that kind of gives a little attitude, but that’s just ‘cause of those, like, four guys that bullied me in middle school that always screwed up my name. And then maybe one older guy a little more recently.

Menzel also has a fun project in the works as she will be in the remake of the movie Beaches.

Not gonna lie we are pretty pumped for these albums from two great legends!

Concert/Live Show

Kristin Chenoweth To Star in NBC’S ‘Hairspray: Live’

Leave a comment

Kristin Chenoweth took to her social media accounts on Tuesday to announce some exciting news! Chenoweth revealed that she will be playing Velma Von Tussle in the upcoming Hairspray Live for NBC this December!

Chenoweth had been teasing some big news for a few days, some thought it was related to Wicked which just announced a big screen adaption of the tony award winning musical, while others guessed correctly about her joining Hairspray!

 

 

Hairspray is the 5th musical adaption that NBC has done! Over the last few years the network has brought The Sound Of Music:Live, Peter Pan Live, The Wiz Live!, and Grease Live all to life during the holiday season since 2013!

 

It’s no surprise that Chenoweth is part of this project, she has been doing television for some time. Splitting her time between musical productions and guest starring in series such as Glee, which showcased her musical talents!

Chenoweth is a former Broadway superstar and originated the role of Galinda in Wicked. We can’t wait to see her in Hairspray Live!

The Tony Award Winning Broadway Musical ‘Wicked’ Is Finally Coming To The Big Screen!

Video Leave a comment

The Tony award winning musical Wicked: The Untold Story of the Witches of Oz is finally coming to the big screen!  The movie has been finally given a release date – December 20th 2019. The movie has been in talks for over a decade and a theartical release from Universal Pictures has finally been confirmed.  

The director will be Stephen Daldry and the script is being put together by Winnie Holzman and Stephen Schwartz. Holzman is credited for writing the book of Wicked and Schwartz was the lyricist-composer of the play. All key parts of the movie are in place it seems, except for the biggest one – the cast.

Kristin Chenoweth and Idina Menzel played Glinda and Elphaba in the original Broadway Musical and they reunited just over month ago to perform the hit song “For Good.” It was the first time the two had reunited to perform a song from Wicked in 12 years. It was at an event to honor one of the producers of Wicked, David Stone. When E News asked Chenoweth if she and Menzel were planning another collaboration, she told them she couldn’t say because it was a secret.

If that wasn’t enough to get fans excited, Chenoweth posted a photo to her Instagram of her wearing a crown and promised big news was coming soon. While there’s no official word if it is Wicked related the crown does look a lot like the one she wore as Glinda and it’s got us freaking out!

 

Update* Chenoweth has revealed the big news! She will be in ABC’s Hairspray: Live! Read all about it! If she can be in Hairspray: Live!, we see no reason she can’t be in Wicked!

Although Chenoweth and Menzel have both expressed they are “too old” to play the parts, we are pretty confident everyone wants to see them reprise the role. Heck, use the original soundtrack, we don’t care! There is nothing better than seeing the Original actors in such an iconic role. It was amazing that Menzel got to be in the Rent movie after starring in the Broadway Musical, there’s no reason it should’t occur again! Menzel won a Tony for Best Actress in a Musical for her role as Elphaba. Wicked also won a GRAMMY for Best Musical Show Album which included the original Broadway Cast.

While there is no word on who will be casted in the movie, it does give fans of Wicked something to look forward to during the 2019 holiday season!

Watch the Video below of Kristin Chenoweth and Idina Menzel singing “For Good” together after 12 years apart!
