Amanda Seyfried ditches Broadway dreams, keeps the nightmares

Amanda Seyfried admitted she once aimed for a Broadway career but backed out due to intense anxiety. The actress discussed her role in the musical film The Testament of Ann Lee, noting it helped her appreciate her current abilities.

She told a magazine that her vocal coach questioned her long absence from lessons. Seyfried decided against ever performing live on stage, calling the idea terrifying. She described having consecutive nightmares about a Broadway debut while filming in Budapest, realizing the pressure would break her.

This self-awareness felt freeing rather than weak to her. Seyfried first appeared in the 2004 hit Mean Girls, a film she still encounters on merchandise and television. She joked about residual payments, mentioning airport security personnel who cite it as a favorite.
