Musical Inauguration

SOLVED!

EXCLUSIVE!

[Blind Gossip] While there are reports that nobody wants to perform at Donald Trump’s Presidential Inauguration, that is not true.

In an interesting turn of events, we just found out that the producer of one theatrical show is currently negotiating for their entire cast to perform at the Inauguration!

There are a few details that still need to be worked out in the contract, but it looks like attendees would be treated to more than one musical number from the show.

Although the show’s producer was quite antagonistic towards Trump during the past year, it looks like that is not stopping them from putting the show first!

By the way, this is definitely NOT about the cast of Hamilton!

SOLVED!

It’s the cast of Hamilton!

Just kidding.

It’s the cast of Broadway ShowStoppers!

Blind Gossip told you a month ago that a theatrical show’s cast was going to perform as part of the Inauguration festivities. Broadway ShowStoppers performed at The Chairman’s Inaugural Dinner last night.

Broadway ShowStoppers is a musical review from Las Vegas that performs the biggest hits from Broadway musicals. Dozens of singers and dancers and a 30-piece orchestra.

The show includes selections from shows like Chicago, A Chorus Line, and Caberet. All the Broadway songs are performed with a distinctly Vegas twist (see video below). Who could ever get tired of watching One from A Chorus Line being performed? No one!

Steve Wynn had a few clashes with Donald Trump during the primaries, but is now a full supporter of Trump and has been playing a key role in securing entertainment for the Inauguration.

The show was originally called Steve Wynn’s ShowStoppers, as he commissioned the show for his wife, who absolutely loves Broadway musicals. The show performed at Wynn Las Vegas from 2014 through the end of December 2016, but performers were asked to do one additional performance for the Presidential Inauguration celebration.

(Note: Their performance was completely voluntary. If an individual performer did not want to go, they did not have to go.)

We gave you the biggest hint right in the blind item: “…that is not stopping them from putting the show first.” Stop… Show… ShowStoppers.

Vegas, baby!

Nobody got this one right, but kudos to everyone who provided witty responses! And to fulfill a request from Conchord, who wanted to hear Donald Trump sing Razzle Dazzle from Chicago, we give you the next best thing from ShowStoppers:

  1. I know so many gays that have voted for him but too afraid to admit. One guy who’s voting for trump for the same reason I did. Syrian refugees still practice hatred for women and gays. I know Cubans from my beach condo in Miami that voted trump because Night club. It’s sad that people fear being harmed for voting.

  2. Good for Wynn. Now he’ll get my business when I’m in Vegas. I want to see La’Rev so this sews it up.

    I love it when entertainers decide to entertain and not play politics.

  8. These musicians should just shut up and sing, as half of their fans are more conservative and voted for Trump. They’re behaving so immaturely and come across as tantrum throwing crybabies.

    I don’t usually watch the music and inaugural balls anyway, but if Kid Rock, Hank, Jr. and Lynyrd Skynyrd performed, I would probably watch and rock out a little!

    I bet Trump surprises us all and makes a pretty good President. He likes to succeed, so he will strive to be the best. Jmo

  9. I’ve got no idea what musical is involved here. But as for what I want to hear him sing, “Sweet Transvestite” from Rocky Horror all the way.

  11. Please be Book of Mormon

    Optional: Either “It Ain’t Necessarily So,” “Always True To You In My Fashion” or “You’ve Got To Be Carefully Taught”

  12. Yes, it is true that nobody wants to perform. There’s this cast – and that’s it. Andrea Bocelli said no thank you after he realized most of his fans were aghast.

  14. I have no idea what theatre production this might be, but I’d kinda like it to be Kinky Boots.

    Trump should sing “I’ve got a golden ticket”, filmed in his room full of gold and gilded objects.

    Or maybe “Gimme a head with hair, long beautiful hair, shining, gleaming,
    Streaming, flaxen, waxen…”

  16. I’m thinking it’s the cast of “Kinky Boots” and the song would be “The History of WRONG guys”.

  17. Is the producer forcing the cast to perform? It seems unlikely to me that any LGBT people would want to perform for Trump.

  19. Show: American Idiot. Billie Joe Armstrong has been very vocal about Donald Trump during the past year!

  22. Does the Moscow Ballet count as a musical show? 🙂

    Song I’d like to hear: So Long, Farewell (from the Sound of Music)

  24. Show: Cats, since it’s nine lives were used up 25 years ago.

    Song I’d like to hear to hear it sing: “Let the sunshine” from “Hair” Because he’s just so stupid.

  25. Sweet Baby Jesus, can this please be Trey Parker and Matt Stone (Book of Mormon)?!! I would love to see how many knocks they would throw in that I am sure will go right over Trump fans heads.

  28. I don’t know which show it is, but the song I’d most like Trump to sing is “Goodbye Cruel World” from Pink Floyd’s The Wall.

  30. No one cares and no performer of note wants to be connected to this travesty of a man who stole an election and three million more voters wanted the other guy. Let him hum.

    • I think he should sing “Let It Go” and dedicate it to all the folks like Crandahl who just don’t seem to grasp the reality that he won.

  31. The cast of Hamilton. If so, brilliant on the part of the cast, the show’s creator and Trump. Everyone wins.

  37. Cast of The Producers. They want to perform “Springtime for Hitler”

    Or maybe the cast of A Little Night Music will perform “Send in the Clowns”.

    I have no desire to see Donald Trump doing anything.

  42. Most people don’t care who doesn’t perform at the inauguration. They just want to see Trump become President.

    They will happily listen to and watch the military bands instead. In fact, that would be their preference.

  43. Ohhhh, Ace, daggone it!!! I was hoping it was Hamilton’s cast, etc!!!!

    Song for Trump to sing: “If I were king of the forrest!”. He reminds me a bit of that lion.

  46. If it’s not Hamilton, I’ve got nothing. Sure would be fun to hear DT sing from Les Mis or Rent haha. He can’t relate to most of us

  47. Ugh. Maybe Andrew Lloyd-Webber and School of Rock?

    I’d like to hear him sing “So long, farewell, auf Wiedersehen, goodbye!” from The Sound of Music.

  51. Producer is Terry Schunk

    show maybe Beautiful the Carol King Story?

    What song do I think should be preformed “Do you hear the people sing” from Les Mis. (food for thought)

  56. Wicked..

    I don’t know diddly about musical theatre dahling…and I’m as gay as a goose.

    Little Orphan Annie… cause of the red hair likeness?

  57. Glad it’s not Hamilton. I would never respect them again.

    Jersey Boys?

    He should sing “It’s the End of the World as We Know it” or something devil related.

    • I guess you missed last week trump made a business deal that provides tens of thousands…of jobs. He’s already done more than Obama has in 8yrs.

    • Softbank had been planning this deal and intended it to go through regardless of who won. Son will look to use Trump to get the merger of Sprint/T-Mobile pushed through and find other ways to make use of him. Trump had nothing to do with this, he simply benefitted from it. It is the same with the Carrier deal. If Pence was not Governor of Indiana, and able to give the tax major incentives that he did, the Carrier jobs would not have stayed in Indiana.

    • Obama actually increased jobs by the millions, after Bush lost millions of jobs, so I don’t know where you get your facts.
