Lmao she had her chance to play Nancy and turned it downSomeone (Carrie?) said in the ‘questions’
You’d be a PERFECT Nancy!
To which she ‘replies’
I’d LOVE to play that part
Really?
How convenient are these questions
Never mind Carrie’s tell all book
I’d love to read Oliver’s
I’m lucky enough to go in August (we’re staying at the value Pop Century, something Carrie would NEVER do), and I budgeted enough for (1) fancy meal, since were only going the pedestrian five days instead of two weeks. I can’t imagine how much she’s spent on table service restaurants.
Luckily there’s a handy revival coming up very very soonLmao she had her chance to play Nancy and turned it down
She probably doesn’t spend much on that since most of her trip is a disney freebie tbh. Wouldn’t be surprised if the meals are also free for her.Lmao she had her chance to play Nancy and turned it down

Then again I am not sure how the meal plan works in WDW hotels
That question sounds fake. It sounds like something you’d ask on a tourist board not to a micro celebrity
A real working class person would not be able to answer that question
Bet they were all gifted too!!
I'm working class and can answer it, I've been to Disney twice and luckily both times I went you got the disney dining plan included in the package. I also saved for my holidays like a lot of other people I know who are working class and go to Disney so I don't think it's as privileged as it's being made out to be able to select a favorite restaraunt. Someone I work with goes every year and they are far from privileged. They just work hard and save and choose to spend their money on Disney holidays rather than other things
If you can get to Walmart it's the best place to buy some snacks to take to the parks as disney snacks are hella expensive, the tipping on the dining plan is absolutely disgusting.
Fair play, perhaps I’m overgeneralising.
Was listening to Samantha Barks sitting in for Elaine Paige on Radio 2 this afternoon.
Thank f*%@ that Care Bear didn't get that job. Samantha is no E.P. but she does at least have her own anecdotes and experiences about so many different shows and one-offs and awards ceremonies and tv appearances and meeting other stars.
Can you imagine if Carrie stood in for E.P.. Every other record would have to be introduced with an anecdote about "did you know I starred in Les Mis" or "Let me tell you about Addams Family / Heathers" before being back to Les Mis three records later. And talking about her famous brother for half the show.

But usually when we talk about it, we're referring to Carrie's claim of growing up working class in the 1990's and her family going to Disneyland every year. It's different now, going to America is way cheaper and more attainable in the 2020's.
The area I grew up in (90's - 00s) was financially diverse. Working and middle class students at my school. None of the students I knew went to 'Disneyland in America' without their parents saving up for it for a couple of years at least. That's the middle class families. Those of us who were working class went on coach day trips to Eurodisney.
So for me personally - that's why I call BS on Carrie in regards to her claims of a working class childhood. And I loathe her attempts to romanticise it when people can't feed their kids AND heat their houses right now.
It's interesting when you hear tom talking about his childhood. He pretty much said how his parents worked all hours to give them all these opportunities..so fair enough. But he also recognises that out of the 4 in Mcfly, him and harry grew up privileged. Tom has spoken about this a few times (as well as other members of mcfly) so it's interesting that Carrie seems to be trying to hide it. They weren't exactly millionaires growing up, but still better off than Carrie claims to be
I always wonder how they manage with the accent for Billy Elliot in the US.A lot of the time if Uk people do an American accent it’s usually “Valley girl- oh my goood like totally Paris Hilton” and if Americans do a Uk accent it’s either “RP Queens English” or Del Boy
I know someone who saw Billy Elliot in New York years ago- they said the accents were a bit dodgy but the dancing made up for it x
Yeah, our hotel, including ticket prices was $1600 for late August. It definitely fluctuates throughout the year. I’m splitting half of that with my sister. Plus airfare which is an additional $300. It’s not too egregious, especially if you have someone splitting the costs with you and you budget properly.
I think she's covering all of EPs time off as she's on next week too.
Yeah I first went to Disney in the 90s as a family and that was a once in a lifetime (we thought at the time) trip that took savings and an inheritance to pay for. This idea that disney is affordable to go to often is a relatively new idea. It's historically been a much more expensive bucket list type of place.
I'd describe us as working middle class lol (as in somewhere inbetween) in the 90s. If you were going every year in the 90s you were definitely middle class and fairly comfortable.

I hate Carrie acting like she was poor…she’s a middle class person saying she grew up poor because she thinks its aesthetic. “my parents were poor but they worked long hours so I could go to disneyland and so Tom could go to that performing school” oh Yes, those kids on the breadline…if only their parents worked longer hours… 
the whole “work long hours and maybe you’ll afford things” is a horrible horrible attitude. Some people work long hours and can still not afford to spend out like her family could. What an awful message to tell your followers.

I really hate the mentality that you have to work ridiculous hours in order to afford nice things. That's not how it's meant to be.I hate Carrie acting like she was poor…she’s a middle class person saying she grew up poor because she thinks its aesthetic. “my parents were poor but they worked long hours so I could go to disneyland and so Tom could go to that performing school” oh Yes, those kids on the breadline…if only their parents worked longer hours…

That's why it annoys me that Carrie is so boastful that she is busy all the time. It's not something to be proud of.
