Can I just say that I am totally in love and obsessed with How Do You Solve A Problem Like Maria? On BBC. It is a show looking for the star of the new Sound of Music opening in 6 weeks in London- produced by Andrew Lloyd Webber. What isn't to love. Tons of musical numbers, a host wearing a metallic suit, ALW sitting on a throne- being very critical, and even a Maria from Romania-(what makes her think the public wants a Maria with a thick eastern European accent?).

So in conclusion Couldn't care less who the next American Idol is- never have- but I am passionate about the next big musical theater star. By the way totally brilliant of the producers to cast this way as I here the show is already selling out. And just in easy you are wondering I am pulling for the Irish Maria or the Fashion Student Maria, both of whom have names I will never remember, like Aoife (pronounced efva). The other is named Siohban

So if you have BBC you should totally spend next Sunday catching up on the past episodes and join me in my obsession with Andrew Lloyd Webber. Also- the opening is a recreation of Maria singing on the hillside, only there is twenty of them singing and fighting- hysterical.

Sadly finding this clips I found out that my two favorites come in third and fourth. So now I am kind of a little sad.
