| Monica! The Musical! |

| Second time as farce... A musical based on the sex scandal that turned Bill Clinton into the first elected president ever impeached is set to debut next month on Broadway. "American Idol" veteran Frenchie Davis will play the role of Clinton's White House secretary Betty Currie in "Monica! The Musical!" - which premieres Sept. 21 as part of the New York Musical Theatre Festival. Actress Christine DiGiallonardo plays the thong-snapping intern, with actor Duke LaFoon potraying Bill Clinton in all his cigar-savoring glory. "Monica! The Musical!" reportedly has its own "toetapping" signature song - "Blue Dress." Other characters featured in the Clinton Sexgate extravaganza include Vernon Jordan, Janet Reno, Ken Starr, George Stephanopoulos and of course - Hillary Clinton. Producers have invited the real Monica Lewinsky to attend the opening. No word yet whether Hillary Clinton is planning to see the show. |
