Bailey Hanks Interview: Legally Blonde's New Star!

[@ania5038]

She seems so committed, more than it came across on the toxic reality show, and so sweet. I'm happy she won and she got her Broadway dream which people like to try to tear down now as if it wasn't a huge deal.

[@studgey9]

she is down 2 earth, beautiful, smart, funny, great actress,FANTABULOIS singer!!!!!

[@abbiemummert]

i mey bailey hanks and she is sooo nice! lov her! :)

[@broadwaylove52]

i love bailey!! haha the first time i watched the show on mtv, i saw bailey and i was like OMG!! shes gonna winn! i have these feelings. lol. like when i saw david cook on american idol the first time... anyway. bailey is just so real and i can actually relate to her. shes a great role model and she's pretty much proven you can just be small-town girl and still follow your dreams...i look up to her and LBB a lot :)

[@zillious06]

This show was filmed and taped 3 months ago, and they just showed the show on TV much later. BAILEY IS AWESOME! I'm so glad she won!

[@ruby7226]

bailey’s story is so adorable🥺

[@silenthillmaster755]

@berryzoa Let me tell you, im about as reliable as unofficial sources for this show gets. The show was dated for closing before bailey was even cast. Its the Palace Theatre, its one of the main theatres you see in NYC. the ticket sales were fluctuating it was just time. Laura Bell was really losing her voice (shes okay now) so she just had to stop, her contract was extended (twice i think)

[@sugarhoneyicedtea123]

She was dropped from her agent and now she works in a hair salon in South Carolina. That sucks so bad.

[@MiniMeags]

Sophie K omg ouch

[@LouDugray]

Sophie K which one ?

[@sarahhanson4569]

Used to be Blondie's kinda by Walmart on Liberty Hwy

[@Niqhtmusic]

Why did her agent drop her?

[@heidil851]

Seems like a real waste of talent

[@kaysue13]

her accent has changed from the beginning to even now in the interview.

[@BroadwayMusicalFreak]

I LOVE Laura Bell Bundy, SHE BLEW ME AWAY!

[@PowellMansfield]

omggg i love bailey! SO glad she won and SO glad for autumn being her understudy.

[@khendlewilliams]

Great job Bailey! You're so awesome! Luv ya!

[@whatthefrenchtoast87]

omg! you are sooo luckyyyy!!! i cant wait to see it!

[@butterflyywings]

i WISH I COULD SEE THE SHOW. and lived closer to New York!

[@LG4EVR1808]

yes her contract is only for 6 months but then it might be renewed also-i also heard that she was offered the part of glinda in wicked after legally blonde

[@ArIrIz]

She is the BEST.. i rooted for her since the first day. I actually saw her on brodway yesterday!!!!SHE WAS AWESOME!!!

[@CrayolaaWonderr]

March, oh my goodness!

[@hannahcarson1698]

I was so glad she won

[@BlondElmo97]

I wish I could know what all the tips were.. that would be awesome

[@MusiqMan21]

bailey is soo amazing

[@ClarinetGirl46]

Yayyy for the marching band outfit!! :D

[@s.j.johnson1961]

They must be at Sardi’s? Love that restaurant. I’m glad she won. She is very talented.

[@SarahSmithton]

I so agree!

[@BroadwayMusicalFreak]

Ask anybody, the show closed on October 19th at The Palace Theatre In New York City

[@kara2lucy]

Leave these people alone they just have their own opinions and theres no reason to give her a thumbs down.

[@cchillzz123]

bailey is amazing!! i went to see her first performance and it looked like she had been performing her entire life!! love her!!! and i hated autumn so thank god she didnt win =]

[@remnantpark]

Yeah, I understand what you mean. I just took it the wrong way. I just never heard anyone say that they are 'happy' that someone lost. Not that there's something wrong with it. Maybe I'm just weird. :)

[@BroadwayMusicalFreak]

The show did close, you probably just saw the tour!

[@TheChubbyDucky93]

haha she's coming with her dad to come visit my church tomorrow. can't wait.

[@Alliballet93]

ah i love her

[@kodakmomentsx3]

im also going to see the show!!!except that bailey is not acting as elle in the tour, she is only on broadway. becky gulsvig is elle woods in the tour.

[@DivoDC]

i was so happy when she won....and i was so close to getting tickets...but living in california sometimes the damn airlines dont want to coperate =[ ....fuckers....

[@TheSongSiren]

Why is Laura Bell Bundy NOT Elle anymore???

[@HeyItsSarah30]

TheSongSiren because the song "so much better" was too high for her and it totally wrecked her vocal cords and also she was wanting to work on her 2nd country album.

[@tiffpink]

Wow they went through the whole big competition and she only gets 3 weeks? or does she get 6 months? Im confused.

[@GryffindorTable]

ANDERSON SC PRIDE!!! Love you Bailey!!

[@rentluvr]

[@dancerqt12]

[@whatthefrenchtoast87]

OMG! I AM SOOOOOOOO JEALOUS! :( Can you sneak me in? lol

[@Samvick12]

Sweetie this kind of shows are recorded a while ago. For example is like the bachelors they record the show a long time ago then who ever he chooses have to hide out until the end of the show airs so the rest of the world won't know. Do you understand now? Is the same with this show sweetie.

[@HPL236]

wow.................

[@SweetYumPotatoes]

@X0X0kimmieX0X0 legally blonde isnt on broawdway anymore..

[@Tyra09Joe]

What happenned to Laura Bell Bundy?

[@bonniegreenblatt8862]

Laura Bundy was great and now Bailey Reeses Witherspoon must be so proud of Bailey

[@Niqhtmusic]

Laura bell left because she was losing her voice, her contract was extended twice.

[@ash4evagrl]

i want a pink car!!!

[@disneychickoobleck32]

um bailey was chosen by a director not mtv okay she was chosen by THE director of LEGALLY BLONDE THE MUSICAL so yeah and laura bell bundy quit they HAD to pick someone else and the some of the TOP broadway judges ever and the director picked bailey thats gotta mean something!!!!

[@Niqhtmusic]

Ana Leiva Laura didn’t quit. Her contract was finished and she didn’t renew it. Do you know how theatre works?

[@BroadwayMusicalFreak]

What is she doing now?

[@keiragerstley8756]

Thomas Gall she’s a hairdresser

[@RealBigPair]

no shit wise ass thnks for the info.........

[@MissBellaBabe24]

I think she means Laura Bell Bundy...

[@ArIrIz]

Actually I didn't get to see her but i got to see that gay judge in the show.. Honestly her voice is even more Phenomanal than ever. SHe has kinda lost her accent and i got orchestra seats!!!! IT WAS AWESOME!! i luv her

[@preppygal3]

She quit Legally Blonde to do a country music cd...not to rest her voice.

[@SarahJsSims]

i still think tht reese witherspoon is the best elle

[@xodramaxo]

aw shes sweet =) but lauras still my elle

[@RachelRamras]

good job on losing the accent bailey!

[@44diamondsymone]

i used to see bailey riding in her car all the time. but not anymore

[@RealBigPair]

damn baby dont let these hollywood types tell u that u have to speak in a certain way ur carolina accent is beautiful damn i hate to hear u talk this way........

[@remnantpark]

hey, you shouldn't be "happy" someone lost. autumn went to the finals for a reason, and the people who decided were professionals. Bailey is great, too. But I highly doubt Autumn is like how you described. She wanted this role, and even dared to audition at the risk of being on a reality TV show. But yes, Autumn wasn't right for the role. But she was amazing in other productions (Little Women).

[@ipodfreak1o1]

she is taking time off but to spend time with her friends and family ,and also to rest her voice

[@silenthillmaster755]

Honestly I don't even know XD

[@shwammy27]

Bailey Hanks is full of her self.

[@xoTossTossxo]

wait kendra WICKED kendra or a different kendra

[@Niqhtmusic]

A. Josie do you know how many kendras there are!?

[@silenthillmaster755]

LIES

[@ghorhams]

Didnt she get killed?

[@allthingsgirlymarie]

Unknxwnz huh?

[@keiragerstley8756]

I don’t think so...

[@ppg886]

What?

[@Niqhtmusic]

WHAT THE HECK!? NO! she’s a hair dresser!

[@yovelaviv]

she makes me ashamed of wear i come from. she talks just like the people i have to live with, uchhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

[@jrcappuccino7295]

What's really shameful is that I'm able to write with proper grammar, use punctuation, and correctly choose appropriate words, despite the fact that I wasn't born in a country with English as its default language.
