Seriously? OMG! WTF?

Patti Lupone is one of the biggest names in Broadway Musicals in the last 50 years. However, the Tony winner says she is done with them.

“I don’t know if I’ll ever do another Broadway musical cause I just don’t think they’re very good right now. They’re not writing for me,” she tells The Hollywood Reporter. “I don’t know if I want to do eight shows a week in a Broadway musical, but I would do a play in a heartbeat.”

Someone needs to write a Musical for her, but it won’t be Andrew Lloyd Webber. That is because she told the trade, “Andrew Lloyd Webber is a narcissistic, insecure man,” when asked about Sunset Boulevard.

Patti LuPone was on Bravo’s Watch What Happens Live yesterday, and she didn’t hold back, as usual.

Andy Cohen asked the legendary actress if she gives a damn about Kim Kardashian acting in FX’s American Horror Story. And she vehemently exclaimed that she doesn’t like it because the socialite is taking away from real actors.

“Excuse me. Excuse me, Kim,” a frustrated LuPone said. “What are you doing with your life? Don’t get on the stage, Mrs. Worthington.”

LuPone is referring to the Noël Coward song about a man telling a woman that her daughter should not act. Not that Kris Jenner would hear what that man is saying because all she sees is a paycheck.

Before LuPone gets too upset about Kim acting on the series. Has she seen AHS recently? Acting is not a requirement. And we know Kim can’t act. We’ve all seen Kim’s sex tape, and even porn stars were saying she couldn’t act.

Company survived pandemic closures and received 9 Tony nominations, but the lights will dim permanently on the Broadway musical at the end of next month.

They did not say why the show starring Patti LuPone is closing, but I have my theory. Yesterday, Broadway announced that masks will be optional come July 1st. And as we know, LuPone is a strong advocate for keeping them on. So I wonder if LuPone said she was done when the masks were done? And without her tickets sales would plummet.

When it comes to the mask mandate, I agree with her on this as the audience is packed in like sardines in a closed, confined room for 3 hours. You know, COVID-19 is going to start spreading faster than the news.

If you are going to see a Broadway show with Patti LuPone starring in it, then you should know you need to follow all the rules. If you don’t, then be prepared to feel her wrath.

Well, there was a woman who thought she could wear her mask below her nose in the front row and not get lectured by the Tony winner. Boy, was she wrong.

After a performance of Company, the cast of the show talked to the audience about the musical. LuPone saw the woman with her mask half on, and she had to say something to the woman in her unique way.

“Put your mask over your nose! That’s why you’re in the theater. That is the rule. If you don’t want to follow the rule, get the fuck out,” LuPone yelled. “Who do you think you are? If you do not respect the people that are sitting around you.”

The COVidiot responded by telling her, “I pay your salary.” I don’t feel bad for the maskhole for what happens next.

“You pay my salary? Bullshit. Chris Harper pays my salary,” LuPone explained. “Who do you think you are?” This time the woman said, “A patron.”

The video cuts off, but I am assuming that LuPone explained to her that the Broadway community has worked hard to safeguard all the shows so that they can go on. So by not wearing a mask properly, it puts all of their hard work at risk and the Great White Way will go dark again. Therefore, the actress is right. You don’t come into her house and not follow the rules. The theater is the star’s house, and the woman disobeyed the rules. I hope Broadway bans her from all future performances of all shows.

The actors and crew are doing everything in their power to keep the curtain up; the patrons have to do the same.

And seriously, how can anyone in this day and age think they can win against LuPone. I might be from The Bronx, and my innate toughness is no match for her. That is why she is so high flying adored!

Oh, and LuPone has a message for all the other people who think they pay her salary. To see what it is, then click here!

It has not been a good month for Patti LuPone. First, she was hit by COVID-19. Then she was hit on the head by roses while taking a bow during a curtain call after a performance of Company.

Was she upset by it? She told Page Six, “Why did the video go viral unless it was to give people a good laugh and a release from the insanity of the world right now, which I’m all for.”

However, she has a message for others who would like to do the same, “But I think we need to school people who want to throw roses to the stage to aim for the feet, not the head. And take the thorns off!”

And the person who threw the roses got lucky. Lucky, the gloves didn’t come off because I would never want to be on LuPone’s bad side, ask Madonna and Glenn Close.
