I can’t stand Ashlee Simpson.

I think that it was just her hair that they were in talks with for Grease!

Grease?! This has got to be a particularly punny stunt by Ashton Kutcher. Britney = greasy. Hardi-har-har.

Harsh, harsh, harsh Ms Michelle! Hell knows I’ve been critical of Twitney in the past but I can see her making a decent job of Sandy. It’s not exactly a complex, multi-layered character – we’re not talking “Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf”! Sandy just has to look pretty and act winsome. And vocally she might surprise a few people. She pulled off some pretty high notes in Everytime (which I heard her sing live, with just a piano, on stage in London and it wasn’t bad at all).

Well, if the producers want their show to bomb, she’s the one to go with. On second thought, it might be a hit. You know-like in the way people watch Nascar hoping to see a crash. Britney can’t sing and I’m sure the theatre folks don’t want to go the extra lengths to set her up to lip sync as usual. Plus, after her “dancing” performance at the VMA’s, it’s not looking good. Maybe the directors are blind on the show by considering her. Sam Lutfi probably called them and said he was someone else and recommended her. Oh! One last point: I don’t recall Sandy or any girls from this movie baring their midriff, except maybe a little skin on Rizzo. That would probably be a better character for her to play. She could up the anti and flash her crotch too.

i think brit would do fine on the acting for grease bc she loves hamming it up and was on broadway as a kid. but there is NO way she can pull off the singing. sandy has some very high notes to hit and brit is not capable. olivia newton- john has left some huge “candies” to fill.

At least the gig might put her in touch with a decent stylist.

She’d make a better Rizzo. Sandy should be played by an unknown, but that’s just one man’s opinion.

KLO: What gives you the impression that she actually sing– not breath loudly, but actually sing.

I’m not saying anything against her in the pop industry, she has obviously done really well with her vocally enhanced tracks. I won’t lie, they’re on my ipod– but I cannot say that she has actual vocal abilities. She has great producers, along with dancing and entertainment capabilities, but singing is not her strength. She would pale in comparison surrounded by actual Broadway singers.
