Yup. Monday again. It comes around too soon..!
Hey ho - on this Tacky Music Monday, I have a faboo new discovery to cheer us up - how about none other than "Baywatch Babe" Pammy's take on "Roxie Hart"?!
That'll do nicely...
The name on everybody's
lips is gonna be... Roxie
The lady raking in the
chips is gonna be... Roxie.
I'm gonna be a celebrity,
That means somebody everyone knows
They're gonna recognise my eyes,
My hair, my teeth, my boobs, my nose.
From just some dumb mechanic's
wife I'm gonna be... Roxie
Who says that murder's not an art.
And who in case she doesn't hang,
Can say she started with a bang.
Roxie Hart.
Boys...
They're gonna wait outside
in lines to get to see...
Roxie
Think of those autographs
I'll sign, "Good luck to ya!"
Roxie
And I'll appear in a lavaleir that
goes all the way down to my waist,
Here a ring, there a ring
every where a ring a ling
But always in the best of taste.
Mmmm, I'm a star...
And the audience loves me,
And I love them.
And they love me for lovin' them
And I love them for lovin' me
And we love each other
And thats 'cause none of us got
enough love in our childhoods
And that's showbiz...
Kid
She's givin' up her humdrum life
I'm gonna be, sing it!
Roxie
She made a scandal and a start
And Sophie Tucker'll shit I know
To see her name get billed below
Roxie Hart!
Have a good week, dear reader.
What are your thoughts on her performance? I admire her mature reinvention but was non-plussed by her Roxie.
ReplyDeleteShe looked terrified for most of the performance, I thought. Competent, not brilliant... Jx
DeleteI saw Chicago in London! Pam doesn't look 100% comfortable with the singing.
ReplyDeleteSx
We saw it too - way back in the year 2000. I agree, Pam doesn't look like a "natural" in the part. Jx
DeletePam looks nervous. Have you seen The Last Showgirl? She and Jamie Lee Curtis are excellent in that.
ReplyDeleteLove,
Janie
I would love to see The Last Showgirl. I've heard lots of good things about it. Jx
