The voice of Judy Jetson in the full-length animated feature “Jetsons: The Movie” will be that of pop singing star Tiffany, not Janet Waldo, who was Judy’s original voice. Tiffany also performs three new songs on the sound track of the Hanna-Barbera film. Joseph Barbera said through a spokesman that “Tiffany’s voice is so promiment in the musical segments of the film that we decided to feature her in the spoken part as well.” A fully recorded sound track with Waldo was thrown out. Speculation that Tiffany was brought in to attract a teen audience could not be confirmed. Hanna-Barbera said that the decision was made by Universal, the film’s distributor. Universal could not be reached for comment at press time. The picture is due to be released at Christmas.
