Remember when Xena TV star Lucy Lawless proved she was more than a warrior princess and played Rizzo in Grease! on Broadway in the fall on 1997? Those days may be over, but Lawless is back singing her heart out these days thanks to her success on TV’s Celebrity Duets last fall, in which she placed 2nd out of the eight celebs who competed (Broadway baby Alfonso Ribeiro took top prize). In fact, the gorgeous mom (who can now be seen on TV’s Battlestar Galactica) made her club debut with a rock back over the weekend at The Roxy on Sunset Boulevard. Broadway.com’s Bruce Glikas was in town for the Golden Globes and offers the following backstage photo peek.
