This is just a monumental diva moment on TV and Joy Behar’s comments sealed it off just right. Perfect.

Broadway Nowaday: “Ragtime” is out of time?
The broadway show Ragtime has been called off after 28 previews and 57 showings. We were lucky enough to attend one of such showings a few weeks ago. The news was shocking as the performance was amusing and the music was delicious.
Ragtime (Ragged-time) is a musical genre well-popular in New Orleans and St. Louis’s red-light districts between 1897 and 1918. Ragtime, the broadway show, was based on a novel by E.L. Doctorow. The story-line is about African and Jewish immigrants adhering to the American Dream. It merges three societies, the whites, the blacks, and the jews. Guess what brings them together? Music.
Sadly, the show will end this Sunday January 3rd, 2010 due to slow ticket sales that failed to cover weekly costs. Investors will be losing their initial capitalization of $8 million. We vote to keep the show running using additional capital for marketing efforts. Firstly, major changes should be done for their outdated banner!
Mariah Carey to be broadway actress
Another Mariah post, but when it rains it pours. There’s just so much news about Mariah what with the new album and tour and now acting career. Mariah is planning on taking the West End of London sometime soon. She’s getting paid a not so hefty price for it – $15,000, which is bad for a singer that gets a million for a concert date. But, this will be a good ground for her to start upon. With her movies Tennessee and Precious coming out soon. Her world tour and her album Memoirs Of An Imperfect Angel. I know I am heading to LHR for it.
