@RedCircles1425 Yeah I noticed that. I don't think she was faking the tears. I would be stunned too, and would have cried. I'm short--not like her--and very skinny so I might have needed help as well. Anyways, I <3 Kristin!
Ooooh my god...I LOVE her dress. I want it for myself!!! She is so cute and so beautiful. I admire her a lot because she has fought really hard for her acting and singing career.
If you think she looks tiny on TV, in person, oh WOW, she is SO petite! I got her autograph after seeing her perform in 'Promises, Promises' on Broadway and she was wear flat sandals; in bare feet I'm 5' 8" and I was about 9 inches taller than her
@cazia9 what??? are you serious?? I am petit also, I am 5'1''. Is she my height? Haha I just want to know because I am studying acting, so I would like to know how petite would normal people consider me hehe.......you know, that counts for castings!!!
@itzaramaja yes but you can use it to your advantage...look at Melissa Rauch who plays Bernadette on Big Bang Theory, she is 5 foot nothing and she uses it for great comedy moments in the show :)
The whole point of Vanessa saying no was an inside joke between all the Girls who were nominated, just watch Kristin's backstage interview with the press
If you are thinking of having an abortion this is a must see.
I watched this movie called 180 movie it was very good if you are pro-life or pro-choice, watch this award winning documentary and see where you stand at the end. At least watch the trailer and see if you are interested.
I wonder if Vanessa Williams chose not to participate or it was part of the shtick. It wouldn't surprise me if she was just like, "Um, I'd rather not.". Total stick in the mud.
Vanessa Williams was joking. She was playing her character Wilhelmina who would never be caught dead wearing glasses - that was the point. Give her a break.
omg i love her reaction rightafter they her name, and when she goes,"this is rreally heavy" haha awww shes so cute! xD i love tjat she cried. its okay to cry. cuz when you cry, that shows you care. :)
This is one of the few things that have ever made me cry. I'd never even watched Pushing Daises back then, either. This speech was beautiful and hilarious.
I love Kristin. She's so cute! I hear she had a killer migraine during/after this. And she was so stunned to win. She was like clinging to Tina on the way off stage because she was so surprised. So freaking ADORABLE!!!
@ritsfata It was something they nominated girls planned because they were the "funny girls" as Kristin Chenoweth described it in her book. Kristin is sooooo AMAZING!!!!
@yaystevie remind me again what role she was nominated for. . . . I'm sorry, what is the key adjective of that character? I think you just answered your own question.
Vanessa Williams not doing the glasses thing was PART OF the glasses thing. Apparently it was Amy Poehler's idea for all of them to have funny eyewear and then for Vanessa Williams to seem too cool to do it.
I saw her on broadway in july in Promises, Promises and she was amazing. This speech almost had me crying. And the glasses were pretty funny especially the pipe!
"This is really heavy.." hahaha it was so cute when she squeaked when she was like "I don't know why I'm crying" haha it's impossible not to love her!
@YiDog21 Kristin said "that was Amy Poehler's idea, the glasses and everything" so I think Amy asked the other girls if they wanted to do something fun.. ?
@sosleepee She just showed that she isn't acting on Ugly Betty because she made that exact same face on there all the time. It would have been funny if she had had on Betty's red glasses .Where's her sense of humour ?
I would give anything to see her perform in Wicked one more time. She is absolutely amazing I love her to death! She is so sweet and so funny! She definetely deserved that award!!!
@faggyboy2 I did read the book. I don't remember that part though. I was talking about after they said Kristin's name and she rolled her eyes like she was annoyed.

hmm I guess I should have said I love how **Amy Poehler** comes up with great ideas like this whenever she's nominated :) (like the 2011 one!)
