Hoyaheel 1,821 Report post Posted July 12 How blind could it be - she's been audtioning publicly for it her entire life. The switch from Beanie to Lea is a little messy, no matter how you slice it. Beanie was going to be great, more like the real Fanny. But she can't do the songs. (ironically, apparently the real Fanny Brice wouldn't be able to either) Her reviews weren't great, sales slumped, it sucked. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
