Honestly, Bailey was kind of bad when she started but she actually got better as the show progressed, which is not a lot to say for other performers. For someone with no experience whatsoever before her debut, she's actually really good.
She was really off-key frequently and her vowel shapes were often closed. She also did not have solid breath control, which is the core for singing. Not on par with other Broadway singers. Her acting wasn't stellar either. It was okay, but if I paid that much money for a Broadway show and she was the lead, I would be very disappointed. She is a really great dancer. I will give her that. Also, people are allowed to have their own opinion. :)
I know it's kinda mean but it also sucks when you pay $100 + to go see a broadway show and the lead is off key like half of the time. So I understand why people are hating on her.
Going to New York just to see one of your favorite broadway shows, and the lead of the show is singing in the complete wrong key more than half of the songs, and you know damn well that Autumn shouldve won and would've done so much better than Bailey, it sucks
in my opinion bailey is cheesy but precious and i love her everyone is ripping on her but she puts so much effort and so much of her own personality into it
I actually liked Bailey! I think she fit the role really well. Laura of course is the best, but I loved how Bailey sounded more immature and more like what Elle Woods would sound like.
@@giabarrone7422 I mean my interpretation of the character she started very immature and childish because she got babied a lot because nobody thought she was smart for majority of her life. She obviously had that character development to become the woman she was at the end of the musical, but in the beginning she was definitely not mature in my eyes.
Was she the youngest Elle? Wow. It's also impressive if that was her first grand musical experience, which I don't really know but... I think she worked really hard and did her best on that super demanding role
Memé Lauren Zakrin was the youngest Elle. Even on tour (which opened just 6 months after Bailey replaced Laura) Lauren is two years younger than Bailey. Lauren was Standby to Becky Gulsvig, but Becky injured her ankle backstage, and was out of the show for almost six months. Laura Bell Bundy “emergency replaced” Becky, but did a total of 36 performances. Lauren did all over for almost six months. Rhiannon also had two performances as Elle because she was the other Elle cover.
@@kylekrichbaum2392 You're right, I had forgotten about Lauren! Ahh, she's great!! I really like her voice. And... how did these women do it, honestly... it's amazing to me that they could handle it all without going a bit crazy... I mean, playing an experienced lead character, with all the non-stop energy it required show after show, plus all the side effects in reality of being out there, often exposed, and of being successful women. And in this case, added to it all, many people criticized the show before even watching it. So, they managed all that... while being very young, really!! That's incredible
Honestly i think bailey did great when people compare her to Laura bell bundy who has done many musicals and is older than bailey it makes me mad like I get no one can beat the OBC but she’s new the the Broadway scene and it’s a really demanding role so give her a break
The thing is, Broadway is the TOP. No matter the age, It's not an excuse, it's a career, and a show which is really expensive. Well, the fact that it was cancelled after three months says it all 😅
One of the problems with making the “search for the next Elle Woods” into a reality show competition is that it really sends unwarranted hate to all participants. You wanted another girl to win? sure, that’s fine, but going out of your way to comment that on every video about bailey is something uncalled for sometimes
Ngl I've been OBSESSED with this musical since finding it. I've not even watched the movie but I don't even want to. THIS is the correct way to experience this story. And After my obsession I found the reality show and my god was it close by I think they chose correctly. What a banging performance I'm so Happy for Bailey. Like it's been a million years but What an amazing effort this show is to perform.
it’s been a year since you have commented on this, have you watched the movie yet? it’s very good, it’s a little different from the musical but i think both versions are very good.
@@reigningastrid339 Not yet! I always just watch the musical. But maybe I'll give it a try some day. I've had ppl talk about it and spoil it so I don't even dare waste my time on it but maybe I'll get a beer and set aside time to someday lol
@wyrmrealmvids8644 please watch the movie!!😢 You get to see the original Elle creation in the form of the adorable Reese Witherspoon! Seeing the movie and the musical is such a brilliant full circle treat.
If anyone is wonder where she is now we’ll she is now a mom and she named her daughter Elle🥺 and she’s also now a hairdresser and OMG her hair is amazing LOL
i loved bailey from the beginning of the reality show she blew me away and i hate that all these ppl are ripping off her and she followed laura really well.
She was so good when I saw her! And it seems that if you dream big you can get where you are! I love her southern accent and she reminds me of a teacher thats like that
i dont think they could have chosen anyone better to take lauras place after she left! bailey is fantastic, and embodies laura so well! of course laura cant be beat, but bailey is an amazing elle woods!!
I absolutely loved Bailey as Elle! She’s the only one who I really felt embodied Elle’s personality and character - even compared to the original Elle tbh
@@josiemac7807 i think lauren actually got to play elle as an understudy somewhere in a traveling cast a few years later. i’m not really sure but i know she definitely played elle at some point
I think the one thing that bothers me about Bailey as Elle is the complete lack of connection she has with ANYONE ELSE in that cast, any video I see of her performing with Christian onstage, they have little to no chemistry onstage at ALL. It’s almost as if she was trying to overshadow everyone to such a huge extent that she completely forgot about the character and wanted it to be the Bailey show. When she says “I don’t have to act as Elle, I just am.” And that sentence just pisses me off because if you think you don’t have to act to fit a role, you don’t fit that role. Sure her voice may not be as strong but that can be fix. What can’t be fixed is a selfish mindset onstage. I hope she learns to throw that mindset out the window.
Yeah, this is what rubs me the wrong way. You can practice the singing or dancing, but if you don't get the reason behind your character's actions and their complexity (even though this is a light-hearted musical, it's all still there) then what's the point? It seems to me that Bailey just saw Elle as a fun, girly character and didn't focus much on the character development and transformation she has to go through. Kinda ironic since the whole show is about how there's so much beneath the surface.
She's from Anderson South Carolina absolutely love her I'm from Rock Hill South Carolina but she definitely has that South Carolina accent that I don't have because my parents were not born here it's amazing how she does such a good job hiding that accent during the musical
Autumn should have won by far, i’m so shook. You have this young 20 year old girl that can dance well and looks the part but has an average singing voice and acting abilities who hasn’t gone through the hardships of trying to break into the industry. Meanwhile you got Autumn who’s not a great dancer but has a incredible voice and makes solid and believable acting choices. Let’s be real, if she wasn’t 28 she would have got the part which is such a shame for someone so talented that has been trying to break into the business for a much longer time be pushed to the side because of her age. I’m just glad that Lauren toured as El on the national tour, she rocked it too!
Marlin Purssell the funny thing is that Laura was actually a year younger than autumn when she played this role lol 😂 Poor autumn just looks waaayy older than her age
. Autumn was good don't get me wrong. BUT, Bailey overall had the feel of Elle Woods. Although Autumns voice was clearly better I totally agree with that part. But Autumn BUGGGED me she was so rude, and ignorant. Overall I combination of both would have been perfect✔️.
lets be real being 20 at the time and doing what she did is so surreal like kudos to her. when I was 2o I for sure did not do 8 shows a week that's for sure
Y’all are ripping this girl, and I understand she’s not the OBC, but she’s one of my inspirations. Im a young girl from South Carolina with the same dream, and you don’t see many other people from down here that aspire to be on Broadway. My parents talked me out of chasing my dream for a more reliable and pretty decent paying job. So chill.
I feel so bad that everyone is calling her bad. I’d like to hear what everyone else sounds like when they talk about others like that, yes Laura Bell Bundy was PHENOMENAL and it’s hard for someone else to capture the exact qualities of her performance! And even if Bailey wasn’t the perfect Elle in some peoples eyes, I hope everyone can agree that she is a beautiful singer. No one is perfect and I believe she deserved that role!
I think the big thing with the reality show is people forget that, she was fantastic not saying she wasn't, but she is visibly better OBVIOUSLY because that was an AUDITION. You will always be worse when you've had a day to a week to work on something alone with minimal to note notes or working with anybody than you will after rehearsing it.
Bailey didn't have the best vocals (though she's still obviously a really good singer), but I actually really like the energy she brought to the role. I think she nailed the characterization.
Hahaha I feel like the first letter of her first name and last name should be switched. After I said the name “Hailey Banks” out loud, “Bailey Hanks” started sounding really weird in comparison.
No, no, if you see the second last episode, her voice was struggling through ‘what you want’. But, 2 years ago she did a production in NYC. Holy cow, she was AMAZING
It’s sad that everyone was bashing on her. Of course she’s no LBB, she’s Bailey and she’ll never be as good as LBB because she just isn’t. I don’t think she was the best Elle Woods(LBB was in my opinion) but she definitely wasn’t bad. I think it’s just sad to see how bad she wanted it. I think if she was the original Elle Woods and LBB came after her she wouldn’t be getting so much hate. But since she followed after an actual icon it made her look worse than she really was
why didn't they just get a professional performer out of college? Bailey clearly not classically trained in Musical Theater, at least her voice doesn't reflect it
She is actually professionally trained. She graduated from Coastal Carolina University in their Musical Theatre program which is nationally known and produced some incredible actors and actresses.
MayaBunny08 yes she replaced Laura sadly. Laura couldn't do it anymore because she was wanting to make another country album and because the song "so much better" from the show was too high for her and it totally messed up her vocal cords. So yeah
@@HeyItsSarah30 How about you try covering an accent for an entire Broadway show, tell me how that works out for you. Not to mention adding needing to be able to get the right timing for EVERYTHING and the correct breathing, eight shows a week.
Even off stage her accent is very toned down now, she must have gone through a lot of vocal training next to rehearsals
I mean, they could have also made her lean into her accent for the first few episodes of the reality show. Just sayin’
Ugh I love her. No one else could have followed Laura better. I know Autumn was amazing, but you can’t say she was more like Elle.
I knew she was gonna win the minute a saw her
Yo i called it from episode 2, got chills from her preformance episode 8 amazing job
agreed from episode 1 i knewit was gonna be her
i'm surprised she almost lost her accent all the way but 100 percent agree with you
Honestly, Bailey was kind of bad when she started but she actually got better as the show progressed, which is not a lot to say for other performers. For someone with no experience whatsoever before her debut, she's actually really good.
Michelle I agree. I didn't want her to win but I understand why she did. She is talented she just needed training.
Michelle her vocals got way better but her stage presence which made her stand out disappeared
Probably anyone would be better with professional Broadway vocalists and choreographers working with us, 24/7.
She wasn’t even bad to begin with, she just had more room to improve.
@@arabellastringer3788 4 years later, I actually agree! I think I just phrased it differently then! :)
jeez can people back off of her? she's done a really good job coming after someone like Laura, give her a break
Oonagh O' Malley she was very off key... wasn't very good at all.
Exactly!!!
Lauren should have won.
Ya especially with her accent!
She was really off-key frequently and her vowel shapes were often closed. She also did not have solid breath control, which is the core for singing. Not on par with other Broadway singers. Her acting wasn't stellar either. It was okay, but if I paid that much money for a Broadway show and she was the lead, I would be very disappointed.
She is a really great dancer. I will give her that.
Also, people are allowed to have their own opinion. :)
stop hating on Bailey she did a good job and did deserve to have this huge role. She’s not the best in the world but she’s certainly good.
It makes me sad to see so many people ripping on Bailey
same omg
I know it's kinda mean but it also sucks when you pay $100 + to go see a broadway show and the lead is off key like half of the time. So I understand why people are hating on her.
She's also homophobic.
Kelly me too! Her sister is my best friend and we go to church with each other
Going to New York just to see one of your favorite broadway shows, and the lead of the show is singing in the complete wrong key more than half of the songs, and you know damn well that Autumn shouldve won and would've done so much better than Bailey, it sucks

I actually liked Bailey! I think she fit the role really well. Laura of course is the best, but I loved how Bailey sounded more immature and more like what Elle Woods would sound like.
Elle wasn't immature though....
@@giabarrone7422 I mean my interpretation of the character she started very immature and childish because she got babied a lot because nobody thought she was smart for majority of her life. She obviously had that character development to become the woman she was at the end of the musical, but in the beginning she was definitely not mature in my eyes.
Everyone: Stop hating on Bailey!

She left theater after this and became a hairdresser

I actually really liked Bailey! X
I liked her she just wasnt ready. It's a super demanding part and they needed a more seasoned actor to follow the powerhouse that was LBB.

You wanted another girl to win? sure, that’s fine, but going out of your way to comment that on every video about bailey is something uncalled for sometimes

as soon as i saw bailey on the show, i loved her.
shes a hairdresser now just FYI
Sabrina BabyslutXO yikes
@@jojohaikey From what I heard, she chose to leave the industry because she didn't like the people.
Rly? How do you know?
Kinda ironic considering Elle was majoring in cosmetology
Sabrina BabyslutXO she named her daughter Elle lol
If anyone is wonder where she is now we’ll she is now a mom and she named her daughter Elle🥺 and she’s also now a hairdresser and OMG her hair is amazing LOL
i loved bailey from the beginning of the reality show she blew me away and i hate that all these ppl are ripping off her and she followed laura really well.
Lauren should have won
no one absolutely no one can replace Kate Shindle..she blows me away every single time. She is absolutely phenomenal!
She was so good when I saw her! And it seems that if you dream big you can get where you are! I love her southern accent and she reminds me of a teacher thats like that
Aaaand Kate Shindle steals the show rrrrright at the end. (4:58)
I absolutely Bailey!! She worked so so hard to get to where she was at that point and she’s so freaking cute ❤️
All of those 54 dislikes are from the girls who didn’t get the part of Elle Woods
61
Na they are all that one annoying girl that nobody liked on different accounts
i dont think they could have chosen anyone better to take lauras place after she left! bailey is fantastic, and embodies laura so well! of course laura cant be beat, but bailey is an amazing elle woods!!
I absolutely loved Bailey as Elle! She’s the only one who I really felt embodied Elle’s personality and character - even compared to the original Elle tbh
I just finished the Search to find the next Elle Woods and this came on my recommended. I’m so happy for her!
hi i think I’m the only person here BUT bailey recently had a child and named her Elle! So cute 😍
Anyone else come here right after watching the search for the next Elle Woods? I sure did! Go Bailey!!!! Also, 2019 anyone?
Fansie 25 yupp
lmao...2022
OmK... Bailey was my favorite from the beginning. I was sad to see Lindsay go... But OMK. YAY
Kathryn Shaw I know, and also Lauren, she might have been a little immature but they didn’t give her a chance to improve.
@@josiemac7807 i think lauren actually got to play elle as an understudy somewhere in a traveling cast a few years later. i’m not really sure but i know she definitely played elle at some point
I love Bailey, I know autumn was great but Bailey deserves it
totally agree
i’m so proud of her omg((:
When the whole point of the video was Bailey as Elle but Kate Shindle was the best part lol😂
Molly Donahue was Kate vivienne? Because if so that last part of the song was killer.
Dionte Brown Yes Kate played Vivienne.
Literally tho
She's living my dream
I think the one thing that bothers me about Bailey as Elle is the complete lack of connection she has with ANYONE ELSE in that cast, any video I see of her performing with Christian onstage, they have little to no chemistry onstage at ALL.

Autumn De-Morette best part of the video!
I love her I’m so proud of her
Bailey was always my favorite on the reality show!!!!!!
She improved so much since the beginning so stop ragging on her!
She’s so amazing!!!!!!

Yeah but Elle is a strong dancer so if autumn couldn’t keep up she shouldn’t have got the role. Bailey deserved the role.
. Autumn was good don't get me wrong. BUT, Bailey overall had the feel of Elle Woods. Although Autumns voice was clearly better I totally agree with that part. But Autumn BUGGGED me she was so rude, and ignorant. Overall I combination of both would have been perfect✔️.
@Lila Coogan Lives OMG Lila coogan! She was amazing on tour as Anya! (Sorry I just love Lila)
Cute video! btw I am just obsessed with Kate's ending belt on that high A-flat :)
I think Bailey had the look of Elle that was hard to replicate. I think she looks more like Elle than even Laura.
I watched every single episode!
honestly, autumn should have won in my opinion, but Bailey isn’t half bad. Just be thankful that Cassie S didn’t win, she was awful
Kenzie Bye Cassie was my fav
Kenzie Bye nahh
I’m just thankful that Rhiannon didn’t win!! She barely can sing let alone on Broadway
Cassie S was too annoying
Emma should have won
OOOh I love her. This is such a good show.
She was really good on What You Want
she is flawless
This has nothing to do with Bailey, but at the end...the Brooke Wyndham like lowkey scared me and sounded like someone had sewn her mouth shut 😟
lets be real being 20 at the time and doing what she did is so surreal like kudos to her. when I was 2o I for sure did not do 8 shows a week that's for sure
I feel like she needed to have a little more experience before she starred on broadway
Elsa Moen well how does one get experience if you don't give it to them?
Dionte Brown smaller roles on broadway, like ensemble and character roles. But giving someone whos never done a broadway show a lead role? Sheesh.
Dionte Brown they could start of with off broadway or off-off Broadway productions, and if they can, do a national tour production
Astro Wiz how do you know what she has done?
Sophia’s DAILY LIFE She’s a broadway performer- her theater history is public.
Y’all are ripping this girl, and I understand she’s not the OBC, but she’s one of my inspirations. Im a young girl from South Carolina with the same dream, and you don’t see many other people from down here that aspire to be on Broadway. My parents talked me out of chasing my dream for a more reliable and pretty decent paying job. So chill.
I love Bailey Hanks.
who else watched the auditions
Her and Emma were my favorites on the show
I feel so bad that everyone is calling her bad. I’d like to hear what everyone else sounds like when they talk about others like that, yes Laura Bell Bundy was PHENOMENAL and it’s hard for someone else to capture the exact qualities of her performance! And even if Bailey wasn’t the perfect Elle in some peoples eyes, I hope everyone can agree that she is a beautiful singer. No one is perfect and I believe she deserved that role!
Bailey deserved it. 🖤
Elle qualities do not involve homophobia.
when does she say that??
I think the big thing with the reality show is people forget that, she was fantastic not saying she wasn't, but she is visibly better OBVIOUSLY because that was an AUDITION. You will always be worse when you've had a day to a week to work on something alone with minimal to note notes or working with anybody than you will after rehearsing it.
Guys she is so good!
Bailey didn't have the best vocals (though she's still obviously a really good singer), but I actually really like the energy she brought to the role. I think she nailed the characterization.
i like her mood
Bailey she’s so cute I love her I hope she’s doing great right know
Hahaha I feel like the first letter of her first name and last name should be switched. After I said the name “Hailey Banks” out loud, “Bailey Hanks” started sounding really weird in comparison.
Hahah this is amazing
I love Bailey
She's so adorable and sweet being a small town girl in a big city :)
I honestly thought, out of when there were 15 people on the show, Bailey or Lindsey were gonna get the part
Soooo Bailey is only a year older than Lauren and Lauren was eliminated because she was too young? #TeamLauren #2019
Lauren should have won
lydia haworth agreed
No, no, if you see the second last episode, her voice was struggling through ‘what you want’. But, 2 years ago she did a production in NYC. Holy cow, she was AMAZING
Lauren was 18, Bailey was 20
lydia gracias Emma should have won
No one I have read the comments of have been hate, they’re just stating their opinion. Jeez grow up y’all
i love bailey
Kate Shindle 😍😍👏👏
This show did so much better in the UK
No can beat Laura bell bunny
Stop comparing her!
*bundy
It’s Laura bell bundy
Nahhh
It’s not a competition
Yes baileyy!!!
OMIGOD OMIGOD U GUYS U KNOW THAT LAURA IS BETTER AT THIS PRIZE
of being broadway
From the beginning I predicted bailey would win!!
Go bailey!!!
It’s sad that everyone was bashing on her. Of course she’s no LBB, she’s Bailey and she’ll never be as good as LBB because she just isn’t. I don’t think she was the best Elle Woods(LBB was in my opinion) but she definitely wasn’t bad. I think it’s just sad to see how bad she wanted it. I think if she was the original Elle Woods and LBB came after her she wouldn’t be getting so much hate. But since she followed after an actual icon it made her look worse than she really was
where can I find the full version of this show?

th-cam.com/video/xjkscx9Osmw/w-d-xo.html
i love bailey full tea sis
Give her a break guys. She’s phenomenal!
Autumn, Lauren and Bailey would all make a perfect Elle, but I do think Bailey was the Elliest Elle of them all
All I see are people saying “omg stop hating on Bailey” and I literally don’t see a single comment hating on Bailey
why didn't they just get a professional performer out of college? Bailey clearly not classically trained in Musical Theater, at least her voice doesn't reflect it
They wanted a reality show for exposure and to promote the show probabl, but whatever it was like almost 11 years ago
Theres also the fact that she has to cover her accent for the entire show
She is actually professionally trained. She graduated from Coastal Carolina University in their Musical Theatre program which is nationally known and produced some incredible actors and actresses.
She has a cute southern accent. I really like her.
Jeez whats wrong with the audio in those clips of the show? Even the orchestra sounds like it's playing wrong notes
I love how they kept the same cast but just chose a new elle
Spread the word about god
So did she take Luara bell bundy because I remember that she couldn't do it anymore
MayaBunny08 yes she replaced Laura sadly. Laura couldn't do it anymore because she was wanting to make another country album and because the song "so much better" from the show was too high for her and it totally messed up her vocal cords. So yeah
I wish we could have seen Rhiannon play Elle
I think it’s amazing how well she could hid her accent
She manifested that s*** good job
3:04 how did she get the part
I thought bailey did fairly well!
Was Paul playing Kyle here? Cuz the person playing Kyle here doesn't look like Andy Karl nor Matthew Risch.
Woah... is it just my ears or did something happen at 3:04?
JRipley15 no she was off key. As usual. I swear like every other word was off key from her 🤦🏻♀️
@@HeyItsSarah30 How about you try covering an accent for an entire Broadway show, tell me how that works out for you. Not to mention adding needing to be able to get the right timing for EVERYTHING and the correct breathing, eight shows a week.
Anon you sound pressed and personally offended...they are talking about Bailey, not you
She’s cute but she doesn’t really embody Elle behind surface level attributes
everything went off tune... I think Bailey hit the wrong note and it sounded like everything was off.
