She'll begin once she finishes her stint in Blood Brothers. I have to say I've seen Niki in blood brothers countless amount of times and she's so believeable! And absolutely unreal performer. She's came so far from X Factor!

I bet they're itchy though. I wouldn't want to wear one.

Wow, a 40-something woman is playing the role of a college age teen?

I would've expected her to get the Jennifer Coolidge nail salon gal pal part, not the Reese Witherspoon role....

Either way, good for her!

ETA: Never mind, I was correct. She's playing Paulette on tour, the ditzy, timid nail salon friend of Elle's. It's actually a supporting part:

Quote:
“She then returns to the Waterside Theatre in January with hit musical Legally Blonde.

“I play Paulette, it’s a really fun show so I should be able to laugh more.”

She should be a hoot doing the "bend and snap" though!

Good luck to her (although only if she's finally dropped the bitterness). But woeful casting.

Oooh, she was bitter? Please elucidate, I'm curious now.

I wouldn't say Niki was bitter. The woman's worked non stop since X Factor. Her version of My Heart Will Go On still gives me goosebumps.
