I know nothing about her other than her annoying Proactiv commercials.

But Tom Cruise? Really?

I know! Tom Cruise!

Here's a good video of her dancing (with her brother Derek): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7KChBpxOA1M

Frankly I think he has the better voice but whatever

Ahh, I know who he is!

She's a good dancer too.

I dislike when people use the word "retarded"

little_missmimi March 4 2011, 02:37:02 UTC

This.

Could not agree more!

I actually think Jules could do really well with Sherrie. Her voice isn't the strongest, but I she's decent and I think she could really nail this character.

Ton Cruise on the other hand will never ever ever ever be Stacee Jaxx, sorry but he doesn't fit the part at all, and I can't imagine him singing as well.

I love Shankman, so I'm hoping beyond all hope that this will turn out good.

Forget the fact that I cannot stand Tom Cruise - since when was Stacee Jaxx 50?

The audition listing for the Broadway production describes Stacee as a "Middle-aged Caucasian man".
