RE: Haley playing in MLB All-Star Celebrity Softball Game
She should defiantly sing the national anthem. Shoot her and Cook can sing it together.
I'm going to pull a Randy Jackson... I actually met Jennie Finch about 7 years ago for a softball thing. And I have to see her and Haley stand next to each other, she over six feet tall and a stocky women. I think hales might look a little out of place, but also stand out (in a good way)....and maybe while she's out there she can make a Glee connection!?
