It sounds like Kristen Bell may be growing tired being typecast as an adorably bubbly blonde — she's just signed on to star opposite Christina Aguilera in the musical drama Burlesque.
Bell will star as one of the club's headliners, a "loose cannon" who doesn't exactly welcome Christina Aguilera's character with open arms. Bell did the bad girl thing during her stint on Heroes, but for some reason I just can't see her as a risque pole dancer. Plus, she's supposed to be the big fish that intimidates Aguilera? Seems like it should be the other way around.
What's your take on this casting news? Can you envision Kristen scantily clad singing and dancing side by side with Christina Aguilera, or should she stick to what she knows?

Kristen has a very child-like voice and way of speaking, that I just can't see her as a bad girl
1I'm absolutely on board with this casting decision. I love Kristen, and of course am really excited about Burlesque.
2My viewing of Kristen's work is limited to Forgetting Sarah Marshall and her FABULOUSLY b*tchy voice overs on Gossip Girl, but I can see her nailing this part, and I think everyone on board is going to do such a fun job!
I can't wait!
I think she just wanted to try a role outside of what's usually offered to her. I hope this is successful for her - she's such a classy girl.
3this will definitely be interesting...i don't see it, but good for her!
4Kristen Bell played a major bad ass on Veronica Mars. if you have not seen her in that check out season one.
5Yay! Now I'm even more excited for this movie!
6yeah, Kristen Bell was a badass on Veronica Mars, and she's a great performer - check out Reefer Madness!
7Kristen will rock it!!
8Kristin is an amazing performer and singer... I can't wait!
