Chicago celebrated their 10 year anniversary last night with a very special performance that brought out all the stars who have taken part in the musical. Brooke Shields, Melanie Griffith and Ashlee Simpson were all there for the special night, but what everyone was talking about was Melanie's Roxie performance. Here's more:
...the evening's most endearing moment occurred as Melanie Griffith started to sing and dance the song "Roxie." A lighting malfunction caused a persistent loud flapping sound as director Walter Bobbie raced to the foot of the stage. He asked Griffith to begin the number again after the problem was fixed. "I guess this is take two," a game Griffith giggled as theatergoers roared their approval.
There were multiple Billy Flynns on stage, too. The opportunistic lawyer was portrayed not only by the original, James Naughton, but by Gregory Harrison, Huey Lewis, John O'Hurley, Kevin Richardson and Christopher McDonald, among others.
"This is a cast made in theatrical heaven," said producer Barry Weissler after the scores of performers took their tumultuous curtain calls. He was joined on stage by Fran Weissler, his wife and co-producer, who summed up the evening by saying, "Except for giving birth, this is the most exciting night of my life."
Many more pics from the evening including a very pretty and once again very different looking version of Ashlee Simpson as well as Brooke, Backstreet Boy's Kevin Richardson and more so read more

I love Ashlee's hair. Brooke Shields looks scary in her costume
1I just can't get over how different ashlee simpson looks
2MG looks good.
3Overall not a very attractive group of people...with some excpetions of course
4i love chicago i have seen it 3 times. the show not the movie
5Wow. Looks like Melanie has finally let up on the lip injections. Thank God. She looks much better.
6Ashlee looks SOOOO cute! I love her hair!
~Bonnie~
7I think ashlee looks awful!! (ok, the hair is really cute) I mean, could she possibly look any more plastic-y? she looks like Skipper...
8I cannot even comment on Miss Asslee... I used to like her so much but, now I am a proud member of the brigade trying to bring those skanks down... This group of people are fugly and wtf is Kevin Richardson doing there.....
9Brooke does look scary.
10Congrats to Ashlee on becoming the new Jessica Simpson life-size barbie!! (only with no boobs)
11what is Ashlee wearing? god awful
12This is like a convention of the fashion don'ts.
and Antonio really needs to pull a Britt and dump that tart clinging to him like her skank life depends on it. I miss the old hot Desperado and Tie Me Up Tie Me Down Antonio.
13Everytime I see Ashlee I say who is that. She changes so much I could never keep up with her. I wonder if she's been having more plastic surgery. Her smile is looking alittle plastic these days.
14I know, Ashlee loks different every time I see a pixture of her!
15oh there seems to b someone there slightly resembaling ashlee simpson
16I am not a fan of Ashlee. She gets faker and faker every time I see her. She has lost a lot of weight. The boobs she was "proud of" are gone. She is a wannabe Jessica.
Brooke Shields ROCKS! I love her.
