You already know what the rest of the Legally Blonde girls have been doing since the show -- so I figured I'd hit you with an update on what FMP's (that's "Formerly Missing Persons") Cassie S. and Rhiannon have been up to. (Oh, and for the record, Lauren swears she's alive and well, and told me she's gearing up to go on the LB tour as Elle's understudy!)
And speaking of Elle Woods, Bailey's performance last night was UNBELIEVABLE! Check back later today for a Q&A where Bailey answers your top questions PLUS live video coverage of her opening night.
CASSIE S.
What have you been up to since we last saw you?
I have been training! YAY!! Plus I have been spending lots of time with my nephew (because they do grow up FAST!) I've also been teaching, which is such a pleasure, and -- of course! -- working. I have a few things in the works right now and next up is a guest star on the Showtime hit, DEXTER. So mostly, I have been auditioning and growing up!!!
Tell us something we don't know about you from watching the show. OH BOY!! EVERYTHING! Besides the fact that I'm not evil, I am an avid Orbitz Spearmint gum chewer. Also, I really dislike when my ice sticks together in my water, I religiously try to avoid going to the cleaners and I eat everything out of a bowl. OH! And, I LOVE performing. Not sure if that came across.
Any regrets? What, if anything, would you have done differently?
No. It is what it is. I said everything and did everything in my power. [I wish] what actually made the cut wouldn't and shouldn't have been the pick, but THE FOOTAGE IS THERE!! I thought that the worst part about being on the show was being the villain [but] as time goes on, I realized that it was one of the best things -- because I have been given the opportunity to handle not only the show, but the pressures of the media. I've always wanted to play the "mean girl".... GRRR!! hehe!
RHIANNON
What have you been up to since we last saw you?
Just waiting to move to NYC for rehearsals! Babysitting my cousins for the summer and hanging out with my little sister! Plus, I was offered the role of Margot and Elle's Understudy on the national tour!:) I am so excited for that and can't wait to get into rehearsals!
What was the best/worst part about doing the show?
The best was making so many good friends that i will have for LIFE!!! I love all the girls and I am so happy to have worked with all of them! And the worse thing had to be the stress of the auditions! GAH!!! They totally stressed me out! LOL!
Where you surprised by who won? Who did you think was your biggest competition?
As funny as it sounds, not really! I love Autumn's voice and think she is AMAZING, but Bailey was Elle from the second she walked in. And she was my biggest competition for that reason!
