Open Post: Hosted By La LuPone Bringing Back Her Norma Desmond At A Time When We Really Need It
Broadway is closed for business right now, but if you want some all-caps, bolded DRAMA and THEATRICS, go on over to Patti LuPone’s Twitter page. La LuPone’s lair of luxury (aka her basement) has become the premiere theater of the country, because she’s been regularly tweeting videos of the stir crazy theatrics she gets into down there. And yesterday, she got into half Norma Desmond drag to give us scenes from the future Tony award-winning musical extravaganza Sunset Boulevard II: Norma Goes To Reno (working title: North Virginia Street).
Patti LuPone Called Andrew Lloyd Webber A “Sad Sack” And “A Jerk”
Patti LuPone has no fucks left to give. In fact, I think Patti’s fuck fields have laid fallow since the mid-to-late 70s, and her fuck famine has persisted ever since. But that doesn’t mean she doesn’t still keep a tractor, which she uses with some frequency to drag her old nemesis Sir Andrew Lloyd Webber. Patti’s returning to Broadway this spring with the revival of Stephen Sondheim’s Company, so she’s doing some press. And whenever Patti does press, her long-standing feud with ALW usually comes up.
Some People Aren’t Happy That Patti LuPone Made A Gay Joke About Lindsey Graham
Usually when Patti LuPone opens her mouth, you’re either treated to the big, bold Tony-winning voice of a diva or a thoroughly enjoyable serving of diva attitude. Recently, Patti said something on Twitter that didn’t exactly have the audience rising to their feet with an enthusiastic standing ovation.
Today Patti LuPone Is Hating On Standing Ovations And Uma Thurman’s Theater Acting
Congratulations to standing ovations and Uma Thurman! You have now joined Madonna, Abby Lee Miller, Andrew Lloyd Webber, and theater texters on the illustrious list of Things That Patti LuPone Has Verbally Slapped Down. You should be honored.
Patti LuPone is doing Company in London in the fall, and to promote it she talked to The Guardian. And whenever La LuPone opens her mouth to talk, precious jewels of priceless hate falls out.
Patti LuPone And Andrew Lloyd Webber “Bury The Hatchet.” World Peace Is Possible!
Any self-respecting theater queen knows that Dame Patti LuPone (she ain’t technically a Dame, but she should be) and Sir Andrew Lloyd Webber’s “feud” goes back decades and has gotten messier than the Kylie Jenner-like lips on the movie Evita (aka Patti’s favorite Evita). But according to Page Six, Patti has put down the shiv and the two are working amicably together on a performance for the Grammys. The only correct way to respond to this is to grab each other’s hands and sing Kumbaya, because if Patti and Sir Andrew can stop fighting, so can the world!
Patti LuPone Finally Got To Display Her Signature Brand Of Divaness On A National Stage Last Night!
Since I’m a bit of a Theater Duchess (not yet a Theater Princess or Theater Queen), I’ve known that along with belting out musical notes in ALL-CAPS, giving her unfiltered thoughts on things is something Patti LuPone is not afraid to do. Patti was on Watch What Happens Live last night, and leave it to beef sautéer extraordinaire Andy Cohen to get her to go off on everything from Madonna’s “acting” to live TV musicals to Abby Lee Miller. A couple of the things that Patti said last night have been said before by her, but she finally got to say them on national television. Praise that shifty Andy Cohen for bringing out a true gift for us devotees to petty drama.
