Adam Pascal - tell the truth

Honest.

Here's how it happened, totally honest.

The first time I saw him in AIDA, I'm not going to lie -- he didn't look that great. Sure, he was cute, but he really didn't look his best. I loved the show, but I truly didn't pay him much mind at all. I bought the CD the next day, and I remember listening to it and latching on to that voice. It wasn't until a few months later that I started finding pictures.

It was his vocals that got me first, looks second. And yes, I do think his CD's are good, and that he writes well. If he were just gorgeous to look at, and nothing else, he would hardly be worth it. Would I listen to him sing if he couldn't do so, just because he's pretty? God no.

I first time I ever heard Adam's voice (without realizing who it was) was when I listening to "Light My Candle" from the original Rent. I completely fell in love with his voice. Then I realized that he was in School of Rock, hehe.

Heh. I'm with insomniak. I've been a Rent fan for a little while (not nearly as long as most people here, though), but I never gave him more thought than the "guy with the good voice on the OBCR." I didn't know what he looked like until I saw the movie.

I guess that doesn't really answer the question, though. To be completely honest, and maybe some of my fellow fans will hate me for saying this, but I don't think I would have ended up liking him as much as I do now if he weren't attractive. Actually, perhaps I should say that I wouldn't have become as interested in him as I did if he were ugly, *therefore* not enabling me to like him as much as I do now. Either way, I think his looks played a role in making me interested in him more than "just Roger on the OBCR," but I have an extreme appreciation for his talent as well. It's a bit hard to continue a fandom of a singer if he weren't good.

I first saw him in School of Rock and didn't consider him incredibly good looking, but interesting and a good singer. I still think his looks are unconventional. When I saw Aida, it was his stage presence and magnetism that got to me more than anything else. His attractiveness is a combination of looks, presence, and talent. I like his two CD's very much, much more than clips I've heard from the APB, but it's impossible for me to disentangle my feelings about his music from my feelings about him at this point.

The moment I saw him, I thought he was one of the most hottest guys I have ever seen. I still love him. Oh, and he's sooooo amazing. (singing, acting, etc.)

Marry me Adam... Wait, never mind.

I think "hateobnoxiousteens" is hinting at something with that screen name and I'm fairly certain he's a sock puppet.

Honey, you're not going to hear what you want to hear.

If I wanted plain hot, I'd loiter around Abercrombie.

"I think "hateobnoxiousteens" is hinting at something with that screen name and I'm fairly certain he's a sock puppet."

Hm, I didn't get that impresson from his/her post, despite the screenname. I'm sure this topic has been discussed various times for every good-looking Broadway star, but I find it at least somewhat interesting. ::shrug:: It seemed that hateobnoxious was just curious to me.

I forgot to add that Civilian seems very heartfelt to me, especially I'm With You.

Abercrombie, nia? That's hysterical.

There are shirtless guys on the bags and one of my friends cuts them out and hangs them on his wall.

Chloe, if I ever need a publicist or a professional morale booster, I'm hiring you.

luvtheEmcee-- the EXACT same thing happened to me. I saw him Aida, went back home and listened to the soundtrack endlessly. I saw Rent in NYC 4 years later and discovered who he was more. Then I came to BWW. Got both his cd's, and fell in love. His attractiveness has nothing to do with it... but it is a HUGE bonus.
