Fame Cast

Just add Fame to the long list of remakes and dance shows because the new cast is almost ready to go.

Here is the cast so far:

Kristy Flores

Paul Iacono (The Naked Brothers Band: The Movie)

Paul McGill

Naturi Naughton (Notorious)

Kay Panabaker (CSI: Crime Scene Investigation)

Kherington Payne (So You Think You Can Dance)

Collins Pennie (Half Nelson)

Walter Perez (Friday Night Lights)

Anna Maria Perez de Tagle (Hannah Montana)

Still pending is Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles‘ star Thomas Dekker, and Debbie Allen who played Lydia in the original. The $25 million dollar production is set to start shooting next month.

Truthfully, I’m kind of sick the dance movement that’s made it’s way on the big screen and television. It was really fun at first, but it seems as though every time I turn on the television I get either one of two things: 1)Dance Show 2) Re-make of a TV show or Movie. Ugh, can’t we do anything original anymore?

About

Although comedy is her profession, Nadine has accomplished a lot in her young age. She is a national champion black belt, a world-class soccer player, and an avid snowboarder. She started playing soccer at the age of 4, and continued playing through college where she majored in Biology, but quickly realized her destiny was to tell jokes, not to wear a lab coat. So she decided to be funny while finishing her Bachelors Degree in biology and continued on to get her M.B.A. Nadine’s comedy style is much like her athleticism, fearless. She’s made her way up the comedy ladder very quickly, and has become a club favorite at many of the country’s top comedy clubs, including the Improv chain. Performing in the Boston Comedy Festival and being noted as the “one of the youngest and brightest up and comers” and traveling to the Middle East to entertain the troops are just a few of her notable accomplishments. These days Nadine splits time between the stage, a radio studio, her computer blogging, and a television studio. Nadine’s TV, Radio, Writing credits include: national commercials, talking head roles on E! Entertainment, Showtime’s Hot Tamales Live, The Skinny: Fat Free News, The Sunny Side of The Truth: Real World Hollywood, TVgasm, Zazreport, Daddy’s Girls, Jerseylicious, celebrity interviews on Mania TV, a weekly half-hour television show that syndicates to colleges across the country for National Lampoon and a nightly radio show on XM Satellite Radio.

    continuing on:

    “Why is this coming together?…
    People will see it and cry (‘WHYYYYY!’)…
    I’m gonna make it my mission…
    To bring this show down in flames (FLAAAAAMES!)…
    They’re out of fresh, new ideas…
    I miss original “Fame” (remember? remember? remember?)

    love, J-Mo :)

    Okay, I so totally love Debbie Allen, I actually bought her album AND her 12″ single back in 1989 (yes, she released an album and a 12″ single for a song called “Special Look”, you would not believe the dress she has on on the cover) and I loved Fame so much… so I will share this…

    In high school I took dance instead of stupid P.E. Shockingly I was the only boy in the entire class, and my senior year we put on a showcase for the entire school where we had a skit in which we were trying to teach this one white girl how to dance… and I was put into the “Lydia” role where I was the one chanting “1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-AGAIN!” and berating this girl for not getting the moves right… *shudder*… the worst part was… I had a stick just like the one Debbie used in the dance studio on “Fame” and I was rapping it on the floor just like she used to when she’d get mad…

    I’m so gay it hurts.

    love, J-Mo :)
