| Here's what she's maybe not so great at: knowing what kind of roles she should play. She's really just not a Fanny Brice. But Ms. Michele has a spectacular instrument. That voice is gold, people. Pull up her "A Boy Like That / I Have A Love" from "Glee" if you don't believe what her voice can do. Her tone color as she moves from chest into mix into head voice is just a genetic gift, straight up, and not many people have voices like that. Linked below. Yes. She has that habit of doing register break 'pops' too often. (I'd argue that she popularized that vocal trick so much that it influenced other Broadway singers.) But Ryan Murphy saw Ms. Michele and saw the kinds of roles she can / should play, and the way he's continued to let her explore other sides of her acting chops on TV has been good for her. She's got star quality, she's telegenic... And yes, she can sing like a bird 8 times a week. We'd be lucky to have her back on Broadway. But I can't fault her for taking the TV / film paychecks while they're coming, though. - GMB |
