Casual Screaming About Andrew Rannells

Andrew Rannells is nominated for a Tony for his portrayal of Whizzer Brown in the 2016 revival of Falsettos.
Andrew being the supermodel he naturally is.
If Andrew wins, this will be his first Tony. And, honestly, he deserves it. The man is good. He is amazing. His voice. His acting. He is great.
He looks like a real estate agent.
Let's start at the beginning. It was 2011 or 2012, when I saw a clip of Andrew Rannells and Josh Gad in Book of Mormon. I immediately crushed on Andrew and needed to find out who he was. But then I learned it was Broadway, and similar to what happened with Christian Borle, I did not know that you could be a fan of Broadway without seeing a Broadway show.

I nearly forgot Andrew until 2016, when I got into Hamilton and learned he played King George III for a short time. I finally got into Book of Mormon, when I started becoming a fan of the King George III of Hamilton, at the time, Rory O'Malley was talking about it. I listened to the cast album and instantly fell in love with it. It's a great musical. I HIGHLY recommend it. I got blessed with winning the Book of Mormon lotto and was lucky enough to go see it and I am still so stunned and I can happily say it was my first Broadway show. I didn't see Andrew as Elder Price, I saw Nic Rouleau who is amazing.
Andrew, Josh Gad, and the cast of Book of Mormon
Shortly after I got into Book of Mormon, I learned about Falsettos and I got into Falsettos and I watched Falsettos and I fell in love with Falsettos. Give Andrew Rannells his Tony. He did a phenomenal job playing Whizzer and Falsettos is one of my favorite musicals because of his performance. And everyone else's performance, but he did an amazing job. I'll include a montage of his performance.
I started watching Girls on HBO because of Andrew, but I really like it, so I'm going to watch it for him and because I just enjoy it.

Another musical I fell in love with thanks to him, is Hedwig and the Angry Inch. He did a great job with it. It is my second favorite musical of all time.
Again, supermodel
As of 2017, he has two Tony nominations. The first for his portrayal of Elder Price in Book of Mormon in 2011 and his second, this year for his portrayal of Whizzer in the Falsettos revival. I do hope that he wins this Tony, because he does deserve it.

Andrew Rannells is so good. Don't believe me?
Andrew performing "I Believe" from the Book of Mormon at the Tony Awards.
Andrew performing "Let Me Be Your Star" from Smash on Girls.

No, Andrew was not on Smash, but I imagine that if he was, he could have been Tom Levitt's happily ever after.

Andrew Rannells is crazy talented and not to mention he's drop dead gorgeous. Andrew Rannells is one of the most beautiful people in my opinion. I mean...





 He's a very good looking man. I hope he wins his Tony and I can't wait to see what the future holds for him. I hope he comes back to Broadway.

Why Blue is the Real Villain of Blue's Big City Adventure

Okay, so maybe "villain" isn't the right word. Blue is more like the antagonist. This post is about the Blues' Clues & You movie Blue's Big City Adventure. So there will be spoilers. If you have Paramount+, it's only an hour watch. I promise it is worth the watch if you have watched Blue's Clues in any capacity. Blue's Big City Adventure poster If you were born in the 90s or early 2000s like me then you most likely watched the original Blue's Clues show hosted by either Steve (Steve Burns) or Joe (Donovan Patton). I have an older and a younger brother, so I got to experience both. However, MY host was Steve, and I am a Steve fan til the day I die. I have Blue's Clues & You playing in the background as I write this post because I realized I haven't watched a single episode of the new series despite watching the movie 6 times. I cannot stress enough how much I love Blue's new design. She looks so much fluffier. The original Blue...

Fangirl Friday: Deleasa

 Heyo! Happy Friday! It's that time of the week when I ramble about someone I love! Today's subject is DJ and producer, Deleasa. His name is Mike Deleasa and while I normally refer to my subjects by first name in these posts, I will be referring to him by his stage name, Deleasa. NOW to understand how I became a fan of Deleasa, we have to go all the way back to 2012, when Kevin and Danielle Jonas' reality show, Married to Jonas  premiered. I bet you're wondering what does this guy have to do with the Jonas Brothers? Deleasa is actually Danielle's brother, making him Kevin's brother-in-law. He was featured in the reality show and I ended up falling in love with him. He was actually my parasocial "rebound" from Joe. You can read all about my parasocial breakup with Joe in my Fangirl Friday about him . But enough about the Jonas Brothers. That's not why we're here. Plus I've already written 30k words about them on this blog. However, I am for...

That Time Rod Stewart Found Other Ways of Doing Cocaine

 Heyo! Happy Monday! This week's That Time... is a doozy. If you're a classic rock fan or a fan of Rod Stewart, you probably know exactly what this post is about. This one is a short one, but an interesting one. So bear with me. Of course need to put a warning about drug use. There are plenty of other posts that you are more than welcome to check out if this isn't your thing. If you are unfamiliar with Rod Stewart, let me introduce you to the ICON! He's a rockstar who also has a few pop bangers. I grew up with his music and can't remember a time in my life without his music. The first song I think of when he pops into my head is "Do Ya Think I'm Sexy?" . I know it's the most basic song of his, but I have fond memories listening to the song on the radio when I was a kid. He's also dabbled in a few bands, but I am more familiar with his solo work than his bands. Though check out his band, Faces. In 2012, Rod released his autobiography, Rod: The A...
