Marina Diamandis would be amazing.
Alexa Vega would be great too.

[Musings]

I love Zooey to death but she might have some of the same issues as Leslie Feist.

I second Shara Worden or Marina Diamandas all the way.

Natasha Khan (Bat for Lashes) would be pretty awesome as well.

Ida Maria (a bit upbeat), Laura Marling (a bit light folksy), Lykke Li, Mirah, Sarah Blasko (Australian)er.... MEOW MEOW --> other possibilities to throw out there

Forgive me but what issues would zooey have?

As an actress, she's pretty famous -- that's the main issue.  I'd say she's about as famous as Feist is.

And I know she can act in all sorts of ways, but her singing voice, for me, has a very bubbly feel to it -- not quite flamboyant enough, as Amanda said about Feist.

Alexa Vega would be great too.

I knew you were going to say that!

Shara Worden
Melody Gardot
Janelle Monae
Lauren Pritchard

Some of 'em are repeats or questionable, but ehhh, why not...

Yes you are so right

Edie Langley of the Langley Sisters

Checked.  Wow.  Yes.

[Shojogamer]

I think some of you people are missing the point... I keep seeing pretty famous names on here... go with Kate Micucci. She's about as Indie as it gets. Her biggest claim to fame was a guest spot on Scrubs. She's a great singer and hilarious.

Lauren Ambrose

YES!

[Leisl]

She's a bit of a teen star but Alexa Vega gets some cred for being in Repo! The Genetic Opera

Also a very good choice.

Christa Hughes!!

The woman is fabulous! She was in Machine Gun Fellatio, and I believe she's been part of Circus Oz and other random solo things since they broke up. Her "Bikini Parade" video is up on YouTube also. Love it. The  woman is an amazing performer, and she's not afraid to get her tits out. What more could you want in a lady I ask you?

There is not enough Christa in this world..

Sally doesn't have to have a good voice - that's the point of the character - she's a wannabe.

But the songs are BIG and need a strong voice to get the most out of them.  Not an overtrained voice, but a strong voice.

Just to point out, Christa is pushing the boundries slightly with age, but she's too fabulous to worry about that

Allison Martin of My Dead Ego (formerly with Cavedoll) http://www.myspace.com/mydeadego - great voice, great stage presence, waif-like & ageless.

I also want to throw out there that I'm pretty sure she's talking about a stage production. Most of these actresses mentioned are film stars. Alexa Vega keeps getting thrown up but the musical she was in was a movie. She wasn't running around on stage. No editing on the stage my friends.

not saying I doubt her chops. Just saying its one thing acting in front of a camera and another to do it on stage.... I'm no pro, but I've done both and it's got it's differences that not all actors can handle. Or even they simply just don't translate as well on stage as they do through a camera.
