Tonight during the Democratic National Convention several Broadway stars, many who also have been on television, sang Burt Bacharach’s What the World Needs Now, and it was painfully awful.
You know it is bad when someone decided to put The Brady Bunch’s Eve Plumb in the middle and several people tried to Marcia Marcia Marcia her by not giving her the mic.
To make matters worse, they might be Broadway stars, but that doesn’t mean they can sing a song together. Not only did their voices not mesh together, several of them cannot sing that particular type of tune. Audra McDonald is one of the most beautiful singers, but this song was not made for her. Same goes for Idina Menzel.
Finally, they saved the worst for last. Just when you think The View was the worst thing that Rosie Perez could have ever done to us, turns out singing is a million times more irritating.
The ultimate way to tell how bad this performance was, Broadway’s newest darling Lin-Manuel Miranda was not even part of it. Where was he?
But I will end this on a positive note. It was nice to see Cagney & Lacey aka Sharon Gless and Tyne Daly sharing the mic as the belted out the chorus.

Before Lauren Graham had to do four Thanksgiving meals on Gilmore Girls, she partook in the worst Thanksgiving ever on Townies. She looks the same now as she did when she was 29 in that 1996 episode.
Sofia Vergara was seen looking like a vision in white, but why was she wearing, what looks like, a store bought wedding gown? Did Joe Manganiello and her have a quickie second I do? Is she a bigamist and marrying someone else? In that sense, yes she is cheating on her Modern Family husband and wearing the dress for the movie The Female Brain based on the book. No wonder Hollywood marriages don’t work, they are married to so many different people for the job that they don’t know who they are really married to when they aren’t working.

Netflix announced today that the Gilmore Girls 4-part event will debut on November 25th. Now, we know what a lot of people will be watching on line as they camp out for Black Friday deals and get over their Thanksgiving turkey comas.
Along with announcing the premiere date, they released a new promo for the revival. In it, Lorelai asks Rory if Amy Schumer would like her. Without hesitation, the daughter tells her mom, “no.” Later explaining it is because the comedian likes to do water sports and her mother doesn’t.
The declaration got back to Schumer and she Tweeted this response, “I’ve only done 2 water sports and they took pictures of it both times. I promise I usually just lay there (sex too).” Adding, “I would love her!” So if there is a 5th part, I guess we know who is going to take a trip to Stars Hallow for some water sports.
