Legally Blonde: The Musical: The Search For Elle Woods: The Show

Not convinced that MTV needs to be sunk to the bottom of Whoops Ocean? Does this change your mind?

Wait, there's a musical on Broadway based on Legally Blonde? And it's a hit? And it needs a new lead? And Haylie Duff is leading the search? There are so many things I need to wrap my mind around before I can even start to wrap my mind around this TV show. It's like reading a Borges short story without knowing what a labyrinth is. But this show looks great (not great). There's something fascinating about watching people compete to the death for something you can't believe anyone even wants. It's not dissimilar to cracking jokes about people living in Queens when you can't even afford to buy a studio apartment in Flushing.
