Sleb opera

[chickenfeet2003]

Irwin Schrött, Uruguyan baritone and partner of Anna Netrebko, is running a Twitter competition asking which celebrity one would like to take to which opera.  My entries so far:

The Pope to Verdi's Don Carlos
James and Rupert Murdoch to Menotti's The Telephone

Dominique Strauss-Kahn to Don Giovanni

Gerald Ratner to Rheingold.

Carla Bruni to Idomeneo.

Steve Jobs to Nixon in China.

[chickenfeet2003]

Dick Cheney to Tosca

[chickenfeet2003]

plus rules state "live" sleb which may exclude both Jobs and Cheney

Which is way better than my suggestion which was going to be Nixon & Mao to Nixon in China.

Which also falls foul of the " live celeb" ruling anyway. Perhaps we could replace Jobs with Philip Green.

Aung San Suu Kyi to Fidelio.

except in Britain where a ministerial certificate would make it illegal to disclose that Florestan had ever been imprisoned

Dammit, where is the "like" button?
