But who'll look after the inn? Reality sweethearts Tori Spelling and hubby Dean McDermott have been offered the leads in Broadway's Chicago, the New York Post reports. The couple, the paper adds, "are currently in talks," to follow in the footsteps of Amy Spanger and Michael C. Hall, and Lisa Rinna and Harry Hamlin to become the third married couple to costar in the show.

Tori and Dean in Chicago - just so bad on many levels.

I know Tori can't act, but can either sing? Has she or her hubby ever been on stage before? I hate to say this, but when a show gets this old that its stunt casting is this bad, do yourself a favor and catch the touring compnay in your hometown. That's where the REAL actors, singers and hoofers are.

The subject of this article fulfills reasons 1 through 100 on "Why I Will Never See the Current Chicago on Broadway". This play requires women who are triple threats - sing, dance and act. Can she do any of these (much less all 3 at one time)? Sounds like the producers are desperate, but what audience are they hoping to woo with this casting?

P L E A S E!!!!! There are so many more worthy and talented actors that can electrify the stage----do we have to suffer through more cast offs from phoney baloney reality shows!!!! Bad enough I catch a glimpse of these two when switching channels! Beverly Bonner New York City

You know, it's really hard to be happy for Tori Spelling and Dean McDermott about anything. When I look at them, all I see is Tori being with a man who was married and in the process of adopting a baby with his wife. And when I look at Dean, all I see is a very weak man. How they can just merrily go on their way when they caused and left so much heartache behind is beyond me. I can only hope that saying is true that "what goes around, comes around".

Weird. I thought Tori only got jobs through her father and since he's dead...

Such a shame since Chicago is one of the best musical experiences on stage sans the silly stunt casting they've done over the years. I've seen it a couple of times over the years with such wonderful stars as Bebe Neuwirth and Ann Reinking. To think of Tori Spelling, Kelli Osbourne and Ashlee Simpson in these roles just seems oh so very, very, very wrong.
