If true, Ace and Taylor would be passing in the night . I doubt that Taylor would remain in "Grease " for an extended appearance with Ace coming on board. Too much reality TV perhaps. Then again, the entire revival is based on the reality show concept. It will be interesting finding out how accurate this information is. Edited by mouser, Aug 15 2008, 04:59 PM.

Bringing in an extra $150,000 a week is more like a 'bon fire'! Yes~Season 5 had a 'hefty chunk' of talent for sure!

When Taylor started Grease there was a whole lotta attention brought to show (don't cha' know the Grease PTB loved that!) and it has been steady since with articles, interviews on the set, TV, etc. I wonder if the media will treat Ace in the same way since he is not an AI winner (as a matter of fact not even top 5). Also I wonder if there will be an Ace banner. Also, do you think Taylor might have called Ace up and said If you're interested in the Kennicke part coming up I'll put in a good word for you. Who knows, Ace might owe Taylor one. Which wouldn't surprise me in the least, I think Taylor has always looked out for his friends (i.e Limbo shadow tour) pp
