There's no doubt that she has a butt load of talent, but it could use a little fine tuning. And her acting is a little over done... But I definitely think she's talented enough to be there. Just because she didn't start out a broadway fanatic doesn't mean she doesn't belong there. People need to get off their high horses and give her a chance.
Pure raw talent. Always keep your image clean Jordan, don't let the industry goons influence you to drop your learned morals and principles. You, Melanie Fiona, Adele have mad talent - bring integrity back to the music industry.
remember that time the AI judges keep using the term "broadway" to describe BAD performances, then all their best contestants end up on broadway or in movies of broadway plays? maybe they should rethink their ideas of "BROADWAY".... and then maybe we'd have more talented winners in the last few seasons....
I'm so glad Jordin Sparks finally made her way to Broadway! Her voice- my GOD! Does she even need a microphone? Beautiful singer, who is pitch perfect, strong, with tons of emotion in her voice. What a future!
is it me or has Jordin gotten exceptionally better since Idol? I mean I've been a fan since day one! But her voice is so much bigger now it seems! Wow Jordin! WONDERFUL!
WOW! such a change from her pop voice! its great! broadway is so different, and she sounds staight out from little mermaid or sumthing, but she's AMAZING!
She's really good, though Mandy Gonzalez will always be my favorite Nina. Got to see her in December, and she's absolutely amazing. Hope I can see her in Wicked now that she's Elphaba!
I'm going to go see this on September 16th!!! I can't wait to see Jordin in this! She better not get sick that day!!! lol
And I have to admit that although I love Jordin, I was very skeptical when I heard that she was going to be playing NIna. After listening to this, however, I know that I have nothing to worry about :)
When it was first announced that she was going to play Nina, I was a little skeptical. After seeing this performance, I have no doubt that she'll be amazing! Break a leg Jordin!

Mostly because she's been so horribly autotuned on her pop albums, I wasn't sure what to expect here. But it's definitely a wonderful thing.
