  • very squeaky i didn't like it srry

  • She is Excellent!!!! :)

  • I think she's more suited to Vivian, from how she is personified, and how she sings, but not how she looks - if you get what I mean XD

  • lauren handels the end after the dance really well

  • she looks like britteny spears like if u think

  • @SharpayEvansrocks237 She doesn't look like an Elle woods or sound like it either

  • i really like her more noe

  • She's amazing!! Sometimes she belts a bit too much, but now she actually plays Elle, shes harnessed her strengths! Well done, Lauren!!

  • ha, her I OBJECT is hilarious

  • 3:44 If she wants to get into harvard, she should probably know where her heart is...

  • @silenthillmaster755 your heart is actually closer to the center of your chest

  • bailey was a much better dancer

  • yeah

  • I absolutly Love Lauren Zakrin! Shes so amazing :)

  • she has improved so much! she was so good as understudy and i am so glad that she plays sandy in grease! and shes not the understudy either! love her!

  • Wtf? Why are those guys watching her change? Lol. I saw her as Elle on the 4th and she was amazing. It's clear why she didn't win the show but I'm so glad she gets to be Elle now. It's sad she's leaving the tour for Grease but hopefully she'll get her real Elle role someday!

  • i had wanted her to win. i'm glad she's playing elle. even if it is the understudy.

  • i just saw her as elle a couple days agoo.

    the way she portrayed elle is so different from this video.

    haaah.

  • She has improved SSSOOOOOOOO much! :D

  • lauren did good in this scene, but her voice is sooo much better now.

  • I saw her being elle yesterday too she was good

  • She and Autumn sound like Becky

  • I actually just saw her as Elle in the touring cast of Legally Blonde. She was an understudy. She did great, much better than i thought she would. I saw the show on MTV and she wasnt my favorite. But shes really gotten better at the part. she was amazing when i saw her.

  • she has a too deep of a voice to be elle

  • Im Sorry but this wasnt really good :(

  • why did they do that whole quick change challenge when it looked like they loads of time.

    they all sounded breathy during this. not the mark of someone who is ready for the role without a lot of rehearsal. just shows how much stamina LBB has.

  • Laura Bell Bundy had way more practise at this than the girls because of workshops and the SF tryouts so she was used to it. Some people don't have that much stamina naturally so it has to be built up.

    They also had to do that quick change challenge because when you're on stage, you need to be able to change quickly in between scenes.

  • absolutely, i agree with that. she did have a lot of worshop and rehearssal time but also had broadway experience.

    i know why had the challenge, just wondered why for this number. i guess it makes sense. i know the costuming for this in the show is very very heavy too. Lauren did the best for me in this challenge even if she couldn't zip her boots all the way to the top. (kidding)

  • in the show elle has a certain time limit to change.

    it is a very quick change but she does have some time.

    imagine the little scene with the 3 Harvard deans.

    that fits between her costume change.

  • i hate thumbs down when you just have an opinion or a comment.  i know now from all why they chose this one. anyway...a simple answer would suffice. thank you

  • she isnt very elle-ish to me but i want to see her do something on broadway....

  • she was my favorite of the girls. i was sad to see her go :'(

  • ahh i love her.....met her on the LB tour...

  • that was good..

    her boots unzipped..

    lol

    :)

  • I honestly didn't think that Lauren had the character right while on this show but after seeing her as Elle in Chicago I totally have to change my opinion because I thought she was brilliant on stage. acting and singing.

  • i believe you 100%. i can see that. i liked her better than Bailey.

    what is with the guys watching her change and helping her? women could have held that board up. lol

  • @DeeGreenified you can kind of cut her some slack because she do have to sing her heart and give her all on every song. but she still could do better

  • if only she sang it like this on tour.

  • understudy's aren't required to try and sound like the lead. they do try sometimes, but the point of an understudy is to perform the part as if they were the lead in the absence of actual lead.

  • absolutely. understudy's are also very very talented. a couple understudy's have gone to be bigger all around stars - one example is shirley maclaine. i say the difference between tour and understudy and lead is "a big break"

  • she looks like zenon!

    kristen storm, i think her real name is?

  • OMG I KNOW!!! I used to watch her on Days of Our Lives and I said that Lauren looks like her! OMG! (:

  • no bailey did

  • Did Lauren Win?

  • No bailey did

  • I just went to Legally Blonde here where I live and Lauren went on as Elle opening night!! She was great!!

  • usally she's pretty good

    but at certain parts i think she sounds kinda alike a little boy

    but i still think she should've made it farther than Rihannon

  • Lauren & Rhiannon got eliminated on the same day, Rhiannon didn't get any farther than Lauren?

  • oh ya huh?

    totally forgot about that

    but still rihannon should've before emma

  • omg, she's like, amazing. I remember when she got eliminated. I cried. luv her. she was definitely my fave.

  • saw her..loved her

  • Lauren is good, she has a great voice BUT its too low, the voice of Elle had to be a bit higher then what Lauren was doing, I think, while I like Laura and Bailey is growing on me, I dont think Lauren would of been able to pull it off like Bailey has.

  • I saw lauren February 3 in Austin and she was pretty amazing!! Laura Bell was SO MUCH BETTER (no pun intended) But she is pretty great :)

  • I saw her Saturday and she was really Good. Her voice was on pitch and her dancing was really good.

    I was excited that she got to be elle the night I saw her.

    She has gotten ALOOT better.

  • i saw her yesterday! aaah lauren was so goood!

  • seeing the tour in july and hoping to gawd that becky is my elle! i want to like her but after the things ive heard about her live compared to what ive heard about becky.. id rather see becky..

  • i saw her last night. she sucked. i wanted so bad to like her but her voice was weak and terribly pitchy. i only liked her in the second act when she wasn't singing. she was funny! but oh man it wasn't nat'l tour material.

  • i was there last night too and i agree 100%.

  • I saw her today on the national tour. She was amazing!

  • I got to see her as Elle!

  • i thought lauren was good but she looked a little bit young to play elle. but otherwise, i loved her. :)

  • She is the Elle u/s on the tour and now that Becky Gulsvig is out hurt she and Laura Bell are alternating dates as Elle. The tour already came through my area so I got Becky again as Elle, oh well.

  • I just saw Lauren on tour in DC she played Elle in the matinee. I liked her on the tv show, but agreed that she wasn't quite ready to be broadway Elle. Last week i thought vocally she has Improved 100%! her acting was pretty good, but i thought much was lacking with the dance. She knew what she was doing but it's like she half-assed it. i just thought she should have hit her moves much harder... over-all i think she needed the experience of the tour... but she makes a good Elle.

  • listen to them each sing! bailey sounds good when she's standing still and full of breath. but after dancing, bailey is reallyyyy not a strong singer. lauren is a stronger singer all together, she can sing an entire song with breaking a note or missing a beat. plus lauren is a far stronger belter, and i feel as if she's more of the character. bailey comes off too fake.

  • i think she is pretty good! :)

  • babiley is soo better

  • shes better than bailey!

    bailey shouldnt av won!

  • she was so good; she was better than bailey. well not on the show. but in the actual musical, she would have been better. i hope to see her as Elle in Chicago on the tour. (:

  • she's the understudy for elle on the tour cast.

  • i saw her in boston playing one of the friends in the greek chorus.. i loved her on the show but i dont think she was ready to play elle

  • she is soooo good.

  • i think she is to deep. not as perky and high pitched as elle

  • i dont get it

  • such language...lol sounded so much cooler when i said it out loud...with a british accent

  • ha she didnt finish zipping her left boot lol

  • she's really squeaky, but good.

  • at 30 seconds in she said water!

  • a bit pitchy a couple of times but other than that she has a good voice.

  • I saw her on the tour she did so good and met her she was so nice!!!!

  • did you get to see her as elle or just as part of the chorus? I saw her yesterday as one of the delta nu girls/ typist/ every other minor role haha and she did so good. I wished she had been elle

  • I saw her as part of the chorus and did you see it in boston yesterday cause I saw it again today and it was in boston lol

  • She didnt say Warvard like Bailey Ill give her that

  • shes good not perfect but good

  • Lauren's really pretty but her voice is too squeaky.

  • she should have won!!!!!

  • i can't fricking believe they are taking this show off of broadway

  • they are :o

  • Her singing was a bit off, but I love her facial expressions here.

    However, Bailey's dancing is about 1000 times better than Lauren's. I'm glad Bailey won, she really just exudes Elle.

  • She hit a few bad notes, but her voice, overall, is great.

  • she's good not perfect

  • u agree too

  • shes really good too!

    im seeing this on tour when it comes to CT. i wonder if ill see her?

  • i love her facial expressions.

  • How did you get this video?

  • Lauren's amazing, I hope I get to see her as Elle on tour!

  • she was out of breath.

  • I LOVE Laurens voice! some people think its annoying, but i love it!

  • Does it take that long to change the costume in the actual show?

  • Yes, but in the show there's more going on, not just everyone waiting for Elle. Actually, I think in the show the girls have more time.

  • shes elles understudy on tour!

  • If you compare the two lauren sang it better like 10 x better but bailey is by far a better actor and performer.

  • actually i think lauren is better actor and singer but bailey is a better dancer.

  • i love bailey

    but since the beging i have wanted lauren to win..i wish she did=/

  • i dont like it she seams like shes screaming laurens wayyyyyy better

  • could be age. I don't beleive she could be 21 or 22.

  • i still like bailey better

  • love her legal jargon

  • this makes me wonder why she didnt win.

    ughhhh

    like she was saying what they wanted was right in front of them. she is what we wanted lol

  • This was great =[ But im happy Bailey won, i was rooting for Bailey or Lauren to win. Lauren will get a big role soon <3

  • This is not her best performance. i do not agree with whoever said lauren is annoying becuase thats not fiar. THey should see her in other performances. She is not annoying on any level, she is great and she should have won.

  • i didnt like lauren she's annoying

  • she was DEFINETLY the most talented on the show

  • I love her but think that this role is better for Bailey...

    But I can totally see Lauren as Glinda in "Wicked"

  • Mar? haha

    anyways..

    I completely agree. someone should let her know.

  • u ppl are gona hate me 4 this but...

    i just thought she was ok. i didnt believe it was elle. i love Bailey.

  • talent is start but isn't all think experience will do her good, love her

  • She's so good but her singing is kind of whiney

  • I LOVE LAUREN <3

    From the beginning of the MTV series "The Search For The New Elle Woods" I wanted Lauren to win. In every episode, she practically blew me away. This is the only episode that she disappoints me in. My personal opinion, shes very immature in this audition, and thats the reason the judges let her go.

    However, all of her other auditions were phenominal! I don't understand why she had this random change.

    Lauren should have won. <3

  • I loved her so much. It's a shame she was eliminated for her age. I really think she should've won, even though this performance wasn't her best.

    I am glad that she will be the 1st understudy for Elle and Ensemble. It's great to know she got something out of the experience other than personal growth.

  • I thought Autumn was going to be Bailey's understudy? That's what I heard, but I'm not sure.

  • Yup, that's true. But Lauren is Ensemble, 1st understudy for Elle and Margot on TOUR.

  • i thnk this was bad :( i know she can do wayyy better than this

  • Lauren might not do Legally Blonde tour after all. She was just offered the role of Sandy in the national tour of this past seasons revival of Grease. It would be a huge opportunity and better pay. Legally Blonde is a better show...but starring in a national tour as a 19 year old would be outstanding and amazing for her career. She would skyrocket to stardom.

  • SHE SHOULD HAVE WON!!!

  • i wish she was elle

    shes so great

  • She should have won, no doubt about it.

  • she's so amazing was my fave

  • I agree. She should have won.. I dont think she was immature at all.. Better vocals then anyone.. They can teach her how to dance.. Baily winning is great tho

  • She is amazing :]

    i am 18 and am shocked that someone my age can actually pull this off and do so damn well. i was devestated when i found out that she was gone.

  • i wanted lauren to win badly!!!!!!!!

  • EnRproductions

    If you hate her so much, don't watch her videos. Lauren was obviously the best on that whole damn show, and because she didn't win, it completely turned me off to Legally Blonde.

  • at first i was offended by your comment because she is my friend but then i saw how old you were and i realized that your age reflects your ignorance.

  • why do you hate her

  • she totally should of WON!!! and it would be kool cuz she like lives in michigan and so do i!!!! but bailey was my second choice!

  • i was either for her or rhiannon.

    but bailey is very good too !

  • she went to my bros school last year! =]]

  • lauren is amazing. yesterday she was in her first broadway reading and it was for Catch Me If You Can, with Norbert Leo Butz, Kerry Butler, etc. What an amazing opportunity for 19 year old her! She's also FIRST understudy for the US Tour of LEgally Blonde! I guess that makes Rhiannon second or something. What a promising future for Lauren, and she's STILL a teenager. RIDICULOUS! :)

  • bAILEY ISNT FAKE BAILEY IS GREAT AND SOO IS lAUREN THEY ARE BOTH GREAT AND HAVE GREAT VOICES AND AMAZING ACTING ABILITIES BUT BAILEY ISNT FAKE OR UNORIGINAL SOO DONT SAY THAT THEY ARE BOTH AWESOME AND THEY WERE BOTH MY FAVORITES AND SO WAS RHIANNON AND THIS VIDEO LAUREN IS REALLY GOOD

  • and if anyones fake and unoriginal its bailey not her

  • That was really good.I thnk the reason y she left is cauz they wanted someone like more mature and more as a woman ya know?I don't thnk it had 2 do with her talent or like acting ability cauz shes amazing

  • I like her, but I still see what the judges meant by her acting young. The beginning part wasn't as strong as I thought it would be. But her voice is still really good.

  • I really want to see Bailey's audition of this song do you know where I can find it?

  • Hey Layren is really good and soo is bailey they both are good. I love them both either she or bailey should have won and Bailey did win but lauren was also good so dont say she wasnt nearly as good as Bailey or LBB they are both Great!!!

  • how could she NOT have won? she is SOOOOOOOO much better then the rest of the girls. i was really pissed when they sent her home she has had the best auditions through the season! grrrrrrr

  • I cried when she went home. I'm still happy she got as far as she did though :D

  • i cannot believe she did not win this competition. she's PHENOMENAL. i love her so much more than bailey, who came off as really mean and self-entitled, like she should win this just because she's in a sorority and has blonde hair.

    besides, elle is young and she doesn't act 22 until she decides to buckle down. that can be taught. that vocal power cannot. bailey is just so whiny sounding.

  • i think she was so much better than bailey

  • WAY BETTER VOICE THAN BALIEY!!!

  • Haha, I like the way u think. I COMPLETELY agree. =]

  • yeah and baley is 1 year older and she won

    i really wanted luren to win

  • PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE somebody I am begging please post episodes 6, 7, and 8 (when it's aired) so I can catch up before it's too late and everybody knows who's Elle! Youtube has been the only way I can watch the show as I live in the UK but I am a HUGE Legally Blonde fan and I would anything to be able to see these episodes! Please, if you have them, post them!! Thankyou.

  • Why didn't they pick her!? The whole "you're too young" was a big piece of smelly cowpie (wow so random)!

  • I am mad. Did they not hear Rhiannon. I mean i love Rhiannon, but she sounded really winded and her voice was like nails on a chalkboard. Lauren shouldn't of been sent home. --nuff said

  • i Think bailey will win but rionnion should have gone home when emma did cause she sucks!!!

  • Why did she not win? Lauren was perfect in this role. The 'she's too young' thing was crap. If age was the case they should've kicked her off earlier so their argument makes no sense. Why why why did they keep Rhiannon? She better be off next or else these people (ie judges) are idiots.

  • I agree. That "too young" thing makes no sense. Rhiannon is only 1 year older, PLUS Lauren is far more talented and seems older! Don't get me wrong- I do like Rhiannon, but she just seems more... immature than Lauren, you could say. So age shouldn't have been a factor in all that. Besides, what did Paul say after Rhiannon's So Much Better audition? "She just feels so young!"

  • i never said she was JUST an understudy. i've been in theater for years, i know how it works.
