Somedays you just can’t get rid of a wub!

You know who we should get to be Vinyl?

@Itsthinking Guest starring: TORI SPELLING AS DJ PON-3 :D

@Fortune  
Ashleigh is also the voice of Pinky (yes that’s how you spell it according to the cast credits) on the new Pac-Man cartoon and whenever I hear her speak she always sounds like she’s doing her Rainbow Dash voice.
 
Some VAs do have slightly limited ranges of what voices they can do. For example almost every character Yuri Lowenthal voices sounds rather same-y, but yet I still love it whenever I hear the guy regardless, heh. (Nolan North gets that criticism sometimes too for apparently using his “Nathan Drake” voice a lot, but he seems to be getting less of that lately after his roles as Penguin in the Batman Arkham games and Deadpool sound nothing like his Nathan Drake voice)

At first I was like OHSHI-, but then I saw the last hashtag.

@The Smiling Pony  
the idea in a nutshell MLP staff says anything about the show. A few of Everyone take’s everything as canon.

@Itsthinking  
Someone would have recorded it, no? Closest thing is this:

Which, given that line about Derpy, sounds a whole like what I said: people shouted a bunch of names and there was a single generic “yes” response.
 
@Twinhead-B  
Only thing close is >>379536; people watch staff twitter accounts like hawks, if it was ever said and was up for over a minute, it’d have been capped.

@Itsthinking  
Singing is really the only time (in season 1) that you could really tell that Dash and AJ have the same voice actress.
 
With Andrea Libman, whenever Fluttershy raises her voice, she tends to sound a lot like Pinkie. With Ashleigh Ball, watch “Fall Weather Friends” and then marvel at how that’s pretty much one woman arguing with herself (at least, I never heard any Dash bleeding into AJ or vice-versa. Outside of singing in season 1. “At the Gala” is where you can hear it the clearest, imo).

@Twinhead-B  
Applejack is her only role that doesn’t seem to scream “That’s her!”
 
For the 2 lines she did as Nurse Redheart, it was obvious and (to bring “LPS” up again, but they do share a production crew and voice cast) try to unhear Dash when you hear Blythe talking.
 
But yeah. She does have the vocal quality that would fit Vinyl. Still, as far as known voice actors for the series, I’d prefer Kelly Metzger above the others.

you know what would be great? if mark hamill would do a voice for the show! ^^

@Twinhead-B  
She’s gotten better at differentiating her voices when she sings as the seasons have gone on.

@The Smiling Pony
 
If memory serves he also tweeted it, but said tweet has since been deleted. :/
 
@Fortune
 
Ashleigh would be perfect for that kind of role. My only concern is that it’d end up being too much like Rainbow Dash or Applejack.

Fake or not I still don’t see Vinyl being voiced by anybody other NoWacking. She does such a good job, so does Octavia’s.

@The Smiling Pony  
It was somewhere in the panel when Ingram would repeat names the audience yelled as saying they got songs.
 
@Fortune  
I still kind of think Vinyl’s voice would be, you know, kind of gruff. Not masculine or anything, just not syrupy and sweet. Why Libman probably couldn’t voice her.

@Twinhead-B  
If Kelly Metzger did her voice, that would be the best.
 
She’s great as Spitfire, and I loved her one episode role as (more or less from it’s behavior) as the stoner cat in “Littlest Pet Shop”.
 
As for Kathleen Barr, possibly. But from her roles as Trixie and Chrysalis (as well as Mrs. Trombly from “LPS”), I can’t really see it.

@Itsthinking  
Source on that?

@Fortune  
Yeah, most celebrities don’t like doing voice over work for some reason. I think it might be “beneath” some of them…

@Twinhead-B  
Or heck, Maryke Hendriske, Gilda’s VA?

.@Itsthinking  
The biggest name they’ve gotten so far was John de Lancie (and even that is incredibly minor) and that was for a main villain of a two parter who was pretty much designed to be one of his characters to begin with.
 
It was also said in a con panel that most celebrities say no to doing voice over work. Unless the episode is literally more or less “Epic Wub Time”, they’re sticking with in-house talent.

proper spacing motherfucka do you use it!?

@The Smiling Pony  
That someone was Daniel Ingram, who mentioned her by name.

@Fortune
 
Maybe Kelly Metzger (voice of Spitfire) or Kathleen Barr (voice of Trixie and Queen Chrysalis)? They’ve done voice-work for the show before, so it’s not too farfetched.

Wait, since when is it in anyway confirmed she’s going to have a speaking role? AFAIK the only thing we got is a crowd yelling dozens of names after being told “there would be songs” and someone just saying a single “yes”.
