Was any thought ever given to having Ethel Merman play Helen Lawson in the movie?

After all, the character is based on her.

Think how much funnier all Helen's lines would have been if they were delivered in Ethel's bright abnd brassy voice instead of Susan Hayward's.

"The only hit that comes out of a Helen Lawson show is Helen Lawson!... and that's ME, baby, remember?”
