Was I the Next American Idol’s Understudy?

After viewing a couple of the promo spots for American Idol 6, I recognized someone:

Dudes! I totally went to high school with her!

We did drama together! We were always competing for the same roles, except for the singing ones because she could sing and I could…not, like at all. Luckily our school was too small to do that many musicals. In fact, the only one we ever did was some low-rent knock-off of Beauty & the Beast. She played Beauty. I played a broom, or something. Or maybe a princess? I didn’t have any lines, but I think I had to waltz.

However, I DID land the role of Miss Havisham in our production of Great Expectations over her, because no one can play crazy better than me.

NO ONE.

Of course, I have to wait until January to see if she gets any screen time beyond the screaming-crowds-of-hopefuls shots. But that’s good, because it gives me time to dig out some old photos and my yearbooks, just in case the tabloids want to buy them. For lots of money.

(Seriously, we all look like total tools in them. Totally perfect for a Before They Were Stars segment. VH1! Call me!)
