LOL. My roommate shawk said to me, at intermission, "A mouth fullll of teeeeeeeeth!"

Back when Alfie Boe was Rodolfo in Baz Luhrmann's Bohème, my friends and I were longing for him to at least record ECAET. It never occurred to me that he'd play Valjean (much less venture into musical theatre). So much love!

I of course couldn't miss that he was an opera singer. But, as an opera singer myself I liked it. I thought it was beautiful. And the quartet... wow. :)

omg I would have been so pissed to sit through Nick Jonas. Modern day auto tuned pop stars just aren't fitted for Braodway. They just don't have the voice training.

Well, no offense, this is kind of the sort of thing I mean. Just because he and his brothers were picked to make a boy band when he was a kid DOESN'T mean he's not fit for Broadway. Most guys from boy bands suck, yes, but good singers have come out of them.

So, I don't agree with grudging him the part JUST becuase he and his brothers are in an awful boy band. So, I was on his side.

I just feel let down.
