      He truly stole the show each time I saw him (yeah, I went 13x, lol.) To this day my favorite Bwy show ever.

    I met Constantine at a starbucks right before seeing the show. I started crying and told him he rocked and he said, "no, YOU rock" and it felt like a complete Stacey Jaxx moment

    • @everettjohnson5709
      @everettjohnson5709 4 ปีที่แล้ว +7

      You're breathtaking! Constantine: No, you're breathtaking!

      @cathyhardy6563 ปีที่แล้ว

      Conny is so talented. I remember him from his ultra cool role on "Bold and The Beautiful", and I was in the front row at the Chicago show in September of 2009. The musical show was amazing the film version was not!

  • @ShakespeareanWannabe
    @ShakespeareanWannabe 10 ปีที่แล้ว +421

    3:18 That's how you steal a show in under 5 seconds.

    • @joelle9026

    • @ShakespeareanWannabe
      @ShakespeareanWannabe 8 ปีที่แล้ว +8

      Charlotte D Haha, now all I can see is him doing the Rumor Has It dance! He was so great in Smash!

    • @charchaz00
      @charchaz00 8 ปีที่แล้ว +7

      ShakespeareanWannabe
      wasn't he just? Funny seeing their smash characters try so hard to make it on broadway when in real life the haven't had a problem at all XD well, they're ridiculously talented so of course

    • @ShakespeareanWannabe
      @ShakespeareanWannabe 8 ปีที่แล้ว +9

      Charlotte D I know! Jeremy Jordan is a freaking rock star, Krysta is a BAMF, Andy Mientus is adorable, Wes is hysterical!

  • @ashleenicole5799

    PS to everyone watching "the guy at 3:19" is Wesley Taylor, and yes he is amazing

  • @ilsezijlstra7481
    @ilsezijlstra7481 5 ปีที่แล้ว +42

    Currently in a production of Rock of Ages and almost the whole cast thinks of 3:18 whenever we’re singing 😂

  • @cathyhardy6563
    @cathyhardy6563 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I was gifted for my birthday in 2009 to front row seats by my brother's wife. The whole family went in Chicago at The Band Of America Theater. Conny was excellent. Fantastic musicians and singers and the choreography was top notch! Phenomenal Chicago Cast. Skip the movie version.

  • @citrushottie123

    Back in the '80s who would have guessed that they'd be playing a Twisted Sister song at the Tony awards

  • @gramps2matt
    @gramps2matt 14 ปีที่แล้ว +45

    WOW! That Constantine can sing and you know he's just totally enjoying this whole experience. His "whoa" near 3:29 I'm sure is spontaneous and just perfectly underscores this great performance.

  • @dontstopdancinggirl7

  • @Justlov4
    @Justlov4 15 ปีที่แล้ว +16

    I think it was probably mic problems. The whole night there were mic troubles. I don't think they were lip synching. I still think 3:19 is amazing. He owns everyone with that note. haha

  • @SASSY20
    @SASSY20 15 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    haha this is so weird. i saved this performance on my tv and showed everyone and we all obsessed over the guy who hits the high note.
    and now i come on here and everyone else loves him too :]

    So happy Constantine found his niche. He was born for THIS stage. THIS is where he belongs. On THIS stage, NOT the R&R stage, he TRULY shines. HERE... he's BEYOND an "American Idol." HERE... he IS a SUPERSTAR.💕
