    I felt so sad for him when he was talking about not getting a tony nomination for next to normal, he absolutely deserved one- Gabe is the pivotal character/ aspect of the show, and Aaron was so amazing in the role!

    Aaron Tveit was robbed of a Tony nomination for Next to Normal!!!

    Aaron Tveit:
    - Actor.
    - Singer.
    - Perfect human being.
    - Life ruiner.

    This man is incredible. He seems constantly and genuinely surprised of what is happening to him. He deserves all of this so much, and more. We don't come across those kind of pure artists every day. Go get it all, Aaron.

    Smart, polite, grounded, handsome, talented. The only thing that bugs me about him is that I've yet to find a flaw.

    Aaron just seems so humble and real. Not a lot of people would admit to being upset about not being nominated, I think it was brave of him.

  • @SeasaltIcecream297
    @SeasaltIcecream297 Před 11 lety +3

    To everyone confused, Aaron is straight. The interviewer made a comment about the "3 straight guys on broadway" and he didn't deny it. And guys who do theatre are usually very open about it, at least by the time they're 27 years old. But maybe that's my hopeful fangirl voice talking. Whatever he is, he's gorgeous and extremely talented. God I love him.

  • @loveya718

    I was also devistated when he wasn't nominated for N2N and 3 years later, still am.

  • @213Saldana
    @213Saldana Před 11 lety

    I totally agree! I find it refreshing to have an actor honestly say that they were disappointed. I'm surprised he hasn't been nominated for either of his great shows.

    Aaron Tveit was robbed of a Tony nomination for Next to Normal. I still do not understand it. Bless him for being honest by saying he was devestated by not receiving a nomination.

  • @theburiedgirl815
    @theburiedgirl815 Před 13 lety

    And he got overlooked for the Tony's again this year. Unbelievable. I can't be the only one who saw him and definitely thought his performance in CMIYC was MORE than deserving of at least a nom for Best Actor.

    Had a huge smile on my face throughout this entire interview :D Aaron is the best actor on Broadway on completely deserved a Tony for his performances in Catch Me If You Can and Next to Normal. I'm waiting for the day when I get to meet him and be in a Broadway show with him. Aaron is my idol and I'm in love with his work. He inspires me to never give up my Broadway dreams

    @LPM12 Před 13 lety +2

    Had a great time at the show and Aaron, and especially Norbert were fantastic. But I am just now really feeling troubled about how a bad of a human being Frank Abagnale was, and am questioning why he would want to heroize someone like this.

    • @gracebaumgarten3926
      @gracebaumgarten3926 Před rokem

      I think he admired his ingenuity and also that he paid his dues, went to jail/prison and paid back all he stole and turned his life around. He grasped his second chance and changed a lot through the experience and the relationship he had with Mr. Hanratty of the FBI who was the “good” ( moral) father he did not have.

    Catch me if you can is a GRAND SLAM HOME RUN. I know,I just saw it on Broadway and it will not leave my head. WOW! **************** I would start calling the box office today for tickets,if you have not seen the show. Take the entire family and you will remember this show for the rest of your life. The REAL HOLLYWOOD is located on BROADWAY not in California where fakes can do their takes over and over again.
    Aaron Tveit is the best at his craft.
