Leslie Uggams - June is Bustin' Out All Over

This clip is one of the funniest things I've ever seen. A friend of mine is a Broadway fanatic, and he showed me this imfamous clip of Leslie flubbing the words to June is Bustin' Out All Over. This was broadcast nationally on (I think) PBS, and Leslie didn't take the time to learn the lyrics. She, instead, made up some words along the way. The first few lines are okay, but then...

Actually if you look at the audience there are a few dudes who are openly laughing once she starts into the lyrics lol

And I love how she jerks her head after the second "Miss Uggams!" evillol

Yeah, you know she had to be scared as shit, but she kept her composure. I think she's got a good sense of humor about it now. I don't know that I'd ever be able to come out of hiding after that. She's a real pro though. Did you watch the whole clip to see their "translation?" lol
