“Ugly Betty” Musical in the Works

As if this show wasn’t fun already, rumor is there’s an “Ugly Betty” musical in the works! We already know that Vanessa Williams, who plays Wilhelmina, had a singing career, but what about the other actors?
Ashley Jensen, who plays Betty’s BFF Christina McKinney, is a in a bit of a panic about the proposition of an “Ugly Betty” musical, however. Well, mostly she’s just nervous about sharing a singing scene with Williams, saying, “Most people have got a wee (small) voice inside them. It might not be Vanessa Williams’ standard. But I think what will be part of the charm is that it will be the characters singing.”
Marc Shaiman, who wrote the score for Broadway’s “Hairspray,” will compose the “Ugly Betty” music.
