7:03 on the left in blue - Is that Will Chase I spy?? I LOVE him! He's by far my favorite Roger I've seen (besides Adam). I've seen him in Aida too, which he was FANTASTIC in!! :D
Well, I understand cuz you're probably not used to this one, you probably are used to Rosario. I was too, then I got bored of her and saw Daphne preform "Out Tonight" on a video here on YouTube. Now, I think Daphne is better.
no she's not, the mimi here is daphne rubin-vega (and she's not very good). The original girl who played mimi in the movie is Rosario Dawson, there not the same person.
actually she had gotten the part in the movie offered to her because she was such an amazing mimi but she couldnt do the movie because she was pregnant
The thing about rosario is... the actors in Rent are supposed to portray real people.. you know? It's sorta supposed to be bad in a way... Rosario was too.. celebrity.. too clean sounding.. Dont get me wrong. It was a wonderful performance.. but that is sort of the problem with it. Mimi is a druggie. She needs to sound rough.
well daphne wes offered the job firt but she couldnt do it because she was pregnant but if she couldve done it it would have gone to her but daphne thinks it was good it went to rosario and that she did a great job
You must remember that these people were really young when they did rent and made it what it is today. So pay a little bit of respect whether you think she was horrible, she was the original Mimi who Jonathan Larson cast to be in his production - everybody followed on from her.
i do take in mind that they are very young but kepp in mind there are people at the age of 15 (very young) and are thrown into things like this and they do a very good job. and that's awesome that she was the first mimi but i am allowed to have my oppinion, and to be quite honest she is horrid, she cannot hold a note, well i think anyway
i think she means you have to take into account that sounded different and looked different back than they all did and as they got older their voices grew
i saw this live 9/14/07 and at the end when they all sang "No Day But Today" after Angel came back out i was balling! I couldn't stop crying for like an hour! lol.
i love love love u 4 putting up this clip!!!! could u possible put full versions of the songs from the RENT 10 performence up tho? pleeeeeeze? id love u even more...!!! :)
I would've given anything to be there!!

TIME LESSON:
The movie came out in 2005 (I think)
The MUSICAL came out in 1996
So, Daphne is the true blue original.

i think rosario dawson did a much better job, plus her voice just sounded much better.

rosario did a great job i adnit it but to me daphne is more believable but thats my opinion

Yeah, plus, I don't think rosario does a good job in saying today when she sings in another day. I know Im nitpicking, but still.
