Okay, so lots of people have debates about this, so what do you guys think? Do you have a favorite? personally, I believe each woman brings a part of Mimi to the role, and they all creata unique, wonderful Mimis.
I just want to say I initially thought by "Mimi" you meant the Mimi on the Drew Carey show. That being said, I was expecting something a lot, lot weirder.
I've actually never seen Rent, so I can't make a sound judgment on who captures Mimi the best, but I personally like the 2nd woman the best.
I realize now I should probably put who these people are, so, from start to finish: Antonique Smith, Tamyra Gray, Jaime Lee Kirchner, Daphne Rubin-Vega (Original Mimi, even back when it was in NY Theater Workshop, or before off Broadway) Rosario Dawson (movie Mimi), Simone, and Karen Mok. Yeah.
