Wouldn’t be shocked if Waitress book John if they end up returning to the West End, they like a celebrity booking and he’d make a fantastic Ogie imo

I went to see Waitress last night, it was fab. John would be great in it.

I was shocked when they booked Joe Sugg, one of my friends went to see him in waitress and said he was brilliant
 
I’m not sure about John as Ogie tbh other roles in other shows (maybe Brad in Rocky horror) but for me I just don’t see him as Ogie. I fell down a waitress bootleg rabbit hole in lockdown 1 (a YouTube channel collected a bunch of different recordings and they didn’t get pulled as fast as normal). When you compare John to the other UK castings such as Blake, Joe and Joel he’s a lot bulkier and I’m not sure the character would suit a bulkier actor. Just my opinion though. I’m sure if John worked on his vocals there would be shows he could go for if he wanted too.
 
I think the Waitress thing is unfounded as John has said not to believe everything you read and that if he has news, he'd be the first to share it. However, Waitress would be a good signing as they do stunt cast to draw in crowds and what better publicity than having a Bake Off winner in the cast? I do expect his news is something West End/touring production related as I can definitely see John going into musical theatre as he's already a pretty decent singer (more so than Joe, I might say).

He could be referring to the West End story in this:


But then of course it could be something totally different!

ETA - Sorry Filly, I didn’t see your post!
 
I realised I hasn't thought about Karen for a while so had a look at her insta and loved watching the videos of her teaching dance class. She looks like such a positive and fun teacher - no wonder she always gets on with her partners.
She is lovely, a very good teacher (speaking from experience) . I wish I had half of her chilled Zen!
 
They all dress like I did in my pre-teens during the mid naughties. Wouldn’t be surprised if Janette rocked up to rehearsals with a groovy chick tee and some leg warmers

We were all busy rinsing them for their terrible dress sense and then Mr Widd posts this ❤️. Might forgive him for today, what a little hottie!
