Mya, the sweet and sultry songstress who was slated to make her grand Broadway debut in May playing Velma Kelly, one of the leads in “Chicago” was forced to temporarily call of the show due to a broken foot. This was officially announced by Barry Weissler, producer of “Chicago” recently on Monday. Weissler did not appear perturbed even though the elaborate Broadway production was cancelled. He expressed his opinions and said that accidents are not uncommon in the Broadway scene and that the entire incident was beyond their control. He was also quick to wish her a speedy recovery and will be glad to welcome her back to the production soon as she has recuperated.
For those not in the known, Mya was best known for her chart topping hits such as “Ghetto Superstar” and “Lady Marmalade”, sang alongside Christina Aguilera. Currently no one has been named to replace Mya as yet.
