'Nine' was a 10 in many areas, but I still think 'Dreamgirls' should've won Best Musical

''Nine'' had such a beautiful cast, and the lovely women were stunningly costumed, all directed by the amazing Tommy Tune.

And I recall the delightful Kathi Moss doing ''Be Italian'' on the Tonys. (Her only post-''Nine'' B'way credit was ''Grand Hotel.'')

But I wish ''Dreamgirls'' Henry Krieger and Tom Eyen could've tied with ''Nine's'' Maury Yeston for Best Score.

And scenic design. I'll always remember Lawrence MIller's astonishing all-white-tile-set at the spa for ''Nine.''

So I was really bummed when I caught the tour of ''Nine'' and saw that they had replaced it with an all-brown train station.

Anyone know why? Someone once theorized it might've been too hard to keep that all-white set clean, while on tour.
