She’s gotten so better at singing!!! Absolutely beautiful!!!

I don’t really understand the controversy around baileys voice, it’s incredible! She hit every note and more in this song and it was just beyond perfect! Obviously no one can be perfect and I agree she wasn’t incredible at the start of the search, but she definitely improved and she has a voice that is so close to perfect

She's unbelievably talented, I believe that she's done her own way to portray Elle. Laura Bell Bundy did this accurate mature and goofy type of it and Bailey is doing a more girly and Passionate type. Well done!!!

I like what she brings to this song, there's a real sweet innocence to it

The way she effortlessly sang the C5 just proves she almost reaches Laura's level. She's amazing in this video.

I don't think there should be so many comments about Laura. Bailey is amazing on her own.

I think that if she had come before LBB, people would like her more. Bailey’s voice is more traditionally girly, and what I would except Reese’s Elle to sound like if she sang. Bailey is stellar and definitely made Elle her own, but Laura’s voice is so unique and identifiable, it’s hard for fans to differentiate her specific style from the role of Elle in general

i love LBB's interpretation but i think bailey did just as well, just in completely different styles. LBB's interpretation of the character is focused on Elle's strong personality and it's reflected in her performance. Meanwhile, I think Bailey's interpretation reflects more of Elle's feminine personality which is something every character in the story focused on. It actually reminds me of Sharpay Evans character in high school musical lol I think she'd make a great Sharpay. They both really did well~

@HeidiSueBloebaum

Yes. Sharpay Evans, but a Sharpay that likes everyone.

I feel like this "Elle" is cuter and younger

I think she does a better job of imitating Reece Witherspoon than Laura did. Of course, that wasn’t what Laura was trying to do, but Bailey’s interpretation of the character isn’t completely out of nowhere.

I know that Laura will always be the best Elle (on Broadway) but I really like Bailey tok and people should stop saying that she isn't as good as Laura. They played Elle differently and most people preferred Laura's interpretation of Elle but that doesn't mean that Bailey wasn't good.

I know Bailey personally, she is from my hometown and she graduated from the same highschool as me. I am very proud of her and I love her very much! ^-^

I was born in early 2005, so by the time I started listening to the musical, (I was about 5, I believe. My moms a broadway buff.) Bailey had already replaced LBB. She’s my Elle Woods. I see plenty of people saying how Laura Bell Bundy is so much better (pun intended) than Bailey, but I honestly prefer Bailey because of nostalgia. Laura’s singing is better, but in every other way I prefer Bailey.

I really enjoy her singing actually!

I love Bailey!! 😍

So im learning this song for a class and ive been listening to the LBB version along with the sheet music and its been challenging for me (a novice singer taking the class for fun) to get some of the timing right. It's just an eighth note here or an ad lib there that wasn't clicking. Bailey sings this just like the sheet music. I am grateful for that, even though I prefer to jam to the original.

Just watched the Legally Blonde Search for Elle Woods and blooming LOVED it! Bailey was great tv and seemed to be a good Elle from what I’ve seen. We had Sheridan Smith on the West End and she was pretty fabulous as well. All the actresses that’ve been Elle seem to truly possess that X/It factor and pure charisma, on and off stage. Also, just caught up with the Lockdown Legally Blonde reunion and it was fascinating!

Such a talented girl. :)

It actually sounds really nice!

*For everyone hating on Bailey. She’s trying to replace her, not be her*

I got chills. She is so good! I love her voice and her sass

Bailey is my favorite Elle! By far. She has such an amazing voice, she’s an awesome dancer and always hits her steps, and she is a great actress! I don’t know why everyone is comparing her to LBB! She is just as good! Everyone who is saying she is terrible and “ the worst Elle “ aren’t on broadway! It’s hard enough to do Singing, Acting, and Dancing at the same time. Remember she also is wearing a wig, full makeup, a costume, mostly through the show a pair of heels, a mic, and im sure of much of other things I don’t know!

Honestly, Bailey is the kind of actress I was expecting as Elle and I like her better than LBB. I know that it isn't a popular opinion but Laura's voice is a little annoying to me, I think Bailey is much more pleasant to listen to. With that being said, LBB is forever THE Elle Woods because she was the one who created the character (for Broadway. Obviously, Reese is Elle. Forever.)

What was this recorderd for?

I wonder if they did professional recordings of all her songs because I would love to hear them. 😭 But I’m assuming this is more for cuts to put in their advertisements at the time.

Although I LOVE Laura Bell Bundy as Elle, I think Bailey's voice is much crisper than hers. LBB's voice had a raspier tone to it that made it sound like she was gonna lose her voice. Not hating on either of them :)

Bailey did pretty good!!

who does that guy at 1:29 play?

I think shes good. I mean she has this role regardless of what people think of her so I am happy for her cause she is basically living my dream. I try to day dream of her life sometimes cause that life is my dream

y’all sitting here criticizing like you can sing as perfect as she did damn. no one will ever be LBB, but this girl is extremely talented so stop sitting behind a screen and picking on the poor girl

This was so good omg why does everyone have to compare literally EVERYONE who played Elle to Laura Bell Bundy? No person is the same, and everyone has different ways and techniques on how they do things like this, so I think that it's just weird
