  It’s been in the works for a while, plus it gives a backstory for Elle Woods

Lexi absolutely nailed Elle Woods. You can tell she didn’t just watch Legally Blonde once or twice. It feels like she studied Elle’s mannerisms, voice, walk, facial expressions, and energy for years before getting the role. She isn’t just copying Reese Witherspoon, she’s capturing the heart of the character. That’s what makes her performance feel so authentic. She genuinely feels like a younger Elle Woods.

That new Elle is so dull. Not sure whose idea it was to make this movie, especially with a forgettable D-list actress.
Couldn’t they find someone better?

  They had a huge auditioning process to find Elle. Even Reese Witherspoon was in the auditioning process to decide

Lexi is such a great actress– The resemblance to Reese Witherspoon was so spot on, and such a binge worthy show! I enjoyed watching it so much esp. with it being in Seattle

Backstage at Zara Larsson’s Viral Lollapalooza Show | Soundcheck | Vogue

LAVISHLY DEMURE

An exclusive behind-the-scenes look at how Zara Larsson prepares for her viral Lollapalooza performance. As the Swedish pop star gets ready for one of her biggest gigs yet, a show-stopping concert at Chicago’s iconic Lollapalooza music festival, she gives us an intimate look at her day. We begin eight hours before showtime in Zara’s hotel room, where she does vocal warm-ups, eats breakfast, and reminisces about the last time she played Lollapalooza, ten years ago. Once she arrives at the festival grounds, Zara gets into glam, drawing inspiration from a colorful, sea-dwelling crawfish. After spending time in hair and makeup, she heads backstage for a few final rehearsals with her dancers before taking the stage.
