The Devil Wears Prada Is Coming to Broadway and Inevitably Twitter Makes it Political
Earlier today, it was announced that The Devil Wears Prada will be coming to Broadway, and Elton John is doing the music. In a statement, John said “Re-imagining The Devil Wears Prada for the musical theatre is super exciting. I’m a huge fan of both the book and the feature film and a huge aficionado of the fashion world. I can’t wait to sink my musical teeth into this hunk of popular culture.”
“The Devil Wears Prada” is trending on Twitter, and people have lots of feelings about it. Some are very, very excited:

The devil wears Prada is being turned into a musical. So much yes but also…if Meryl Streep doesn’t play miranda then there is no point.
