Congrats Clumsy!
"If this is going to be a Christian nation that doesn't help the poor, either we have to pretend that Jesus was just as selfish as we are, or we've got to acknowledge that He commanded us to love the poor and serve the needy without condition and then admit that we just don't want to do it." -Stephen Colbert

Wanna Be Foster : Thanks for the Cheyenne love! <3
Questions:
1. Who is your favorite a) actor and b) actress currently performing on Broadway and why?
Actor: I wish Cheyenne was on Broadway right now. But- I would have to say Christian Borle from Legally Blonde or Raul Esparza from Company. They have amazing voices and are fantastic actors
Actress: Jenn Gambatese.
She's such a talented singer-actress and she's such a sweetheart!
Also, I love Laura Bell Bundy, she's adorable and hilarious.
2. Where do you see yourself 5 years from now?
Hopefully, performing in shows somewhere. Not necessarly Broadway, but hopefully one day.
3. What is your favorite a) food and b) beverage?
Favorite food: Hm. I'd have to say steak.
Beverage: Coffee [cream and sugar, please!] or Diet Coke
4. Out of all the theatrical experiences in which you have served as an audience member, which has been the most inspiring and why?
I have to say, what a great question. I'd have to say All Shook Up, the second time I saw it: sitting front row and just the way Cheyenne and Jenn were so fantastic and made the characters pop off the stage and seem real: Jenn in the way she made you believe she was this small town girl with big dreams and Cheyenne because he had such bravado and confidence and being a chubby teen, its inspiring to see such confidence as a performer it inspired me to continue to follow my dream like Chad said. Also, I'd have to say Marissa Jaret Winkour in Hairspray was inspiring as well, she reprented for the chubby teens and made me feel like I could do anything.
Boobs
* Words to live by: "Go confidently in the direction of your dreams. Live the life you have imagined.”- Henry David Thoreau.
* What is the most disgusting food you have ever eaten?
Hm. I had snails before which were really digusting.
* If you were making a movie about yourself, what actor/actress would play you?
I get that I look like Daniel Franzese who played Damien in Mean Girls and that who could be twin just based on that character, so I'd say him.
* When you go to the bathroom in public, do you put toilet paper down on the seat on the toilet before sitting on it?
Yes, otherwise, it's digusting.
* Who are you jealous of?
Cheyenne Jackson's boyfriend!
* What is the #1 priority in your life?
To be happy and make my dreams come true.
* Do you have any bad habits?
I snore.
* What store would you never be caught dead in?
One of those stores with sizes no self-respecting chubby person could fit in and where they treat chubby people like second class citizens: Mainly, Hollister and Abercrombie and Fitch.
* If you were another person, would you be friends with you?
I'd would. I'm pretty friendly to everyone.
* Are you a daredevil?
Eh, a bit.
* Do you follow or lead?
A bit of both. But mostly, I'm a leader.
* Have you ever told a secret that you swore you wouldn't tell?
Yes.
* Do looks matter?
No, it's the person's personality and attitude that attract me. I like self-confidence and kindness and humor. All those things are extremely important
* Are you trendy?
Eh. Not really.
* What do you do to prevent anger?
Listen to music or sing.
* Do you like sappy love songs?
Yeah.
I'm a hopeless romantic.
* Do you keep a diary?
I keep a blog.
* Have you ever intentionally hurt another person?
No.
* Do you like sarcasm?
Yes. Very much. Most times people can't tell when I'm being honest or sarcastic.
* Do you feel understood most of the time?
Yes.
* What is the first thing on your Wish list?
The first thing on my wish list? Hm. Personally: I want a person in my life to love me and be with. Superficially/Material: Tickets to the TONYs or Cheyenne Jackson!
* What word do you use when you think something is good?
"Awesome!" or "Amazing!" or "Fan-Freaking-Tastic!"
* Would you ever bungee jump?
With a group of people, yes, but by myself, no. I'd be too scared.

Finish each day and be done with it. You have done what you could. Some blunders and absurdities no doubt crept in; forget them as soon as you can. Tomorrow is a new day; begin it well and serenely and with too high a spirit to be enbered with your old nonsense. ~ Emerson

No problem, Boobs.
I was shocked to find I was even Celebrity of The Day
I was sitting in my computer class and I logged on to BWW as I usually do and saw a PM from mateo telling me he had named me Celebrity of The Day.
I freaked out and got extremely happy.
Your questions were fantastic, very well thought out.
I had a blast answering them.
I was in the midst of a boring computer final.
Also, being Celebrity of The Day makes me feel good, because I feel like I am well-liked here.

Interesting amusement park story:
When I was ten I went to Disney World with my family and I got on the Tower of Terror not realizing exactly what it was. When we went up to the top and door opened I said "Wow, what a nice view, now we go back down right?" and my brother goes "No." And I go "Then how do we go... DOWNNNN!" as I finished my sentence the car dropped and I screamed loudly and crazily. The picture was hilarious. I was in the seat with the handles and I looked a hot mess.
Favorite thing about BWW:
The incredible people who post on here and their love of theater and how they teach younger posters, such as myself, about things they know about theater and just how through this site we learn so much about Broadway and theater in general.
Other place you waste time online:
Myspace. I'm a myspace whore!
