I love that article. I love when actors are incredibly candid about whatever's happening in their life a la Anthony Rapp.

Congrats, Raul!

Wow, just... wow. I mean, I knew, but, wow, in the TIMES! Congrats Raul, we love you! And, damn! What a way to do it! Did anyone else have to keep telling themselves that it was okay to read the article? That he said it and was okay with it being published? It was so very, very personal, I just felt so strange reading it, like a friend's diary or something.

Once again, congrats to Raul! People like him make this world a more open place, truly they do.

To those who don't have the actual paper: You can read it online.

Edit: I just saw that the link was posted on the Main Board. Oops. Eh, hehe.

Just finished reading the article, and think this is a wonderful step for him. Congrats to Raul!

Okay, whoa. Whoa. I should go read that article....

WHOA.


NOT a fan of the picture, though. :-/

What a fantastic article. I'm so glad he finally did it. Good for him. I hope he's happier now.

Amazed and so glad for Raul. An airplane probably wasn't the best place to be reading the article because loud exclamations aren't well received. But yay for Raul.

Wow, congrats to Raul!! I'm so excited for him :) Leave it to Raul to come out in the Times lolll That's wonderful though, I'm happy for him.

Congratulations to Raul!

Also bumping because I saw "Company" today. Raul (as well as the rest of the cast) was AMAZING. He was really, really, fantastic. "Being Alive" was electric. Meet the 2007 Best Actor in a Musical Tony winner.

Amazing acticle and so happy of Raul!

I'm eagerly awaiting the new Broadway.com interivew that's supposed to go up today...

[To The Stage!]

Posted: 11/27/06 at 11:40am

Oh, really? Yay. Do you know if it's about Company or is it more about his life/career, as in the Times article?

[luvtheEmcee]

Posted: 11/27/06 at 12:29pm

The little teaser thing says it's going to be all about Company.

[Zyla]

Posted: 11/27/06 at 12:35pm

Yay, Company! I, for one, would love to hear more about the show. (Still toying with the idea of jokingly asking my parents for tickets for a birthday/Christmas gift, no matter that it would be totally impractical.)

I'm sorry - I just posted my opinions on the Times article in the "Raul, if you're reading this" thread. Maybe (hell, apparently) I'm in the minority on this, but I'd rather read about an actor's work/art rather than sexuality/relationships (of any orientation).

Broadway.com interview

[Mandi Moo]

Posted: 11/27/06 at 1:51pm

The Raul that ate New York? That made me giggle.

I like the picture.

[luvtheEmcee]

Posted: 11/27/06 at 1:53pm

It made me laugh, too. And so do I. :)

I'm in love with that interview! And no, hun, your nose is not too big, and you don't need a magical rock to make you talented!

[snl89]

Posted: 11/27/06 at 3:59pm

oh wow, that interview is amazing.

Dear Raul,
TRUST me, you're nose is not too big, you are not scary looking (in fact, you're quite the opposite if I do say so myself), and in fact for the rest of the world it is really very much a PLEASURE to watch you act, both on stage and on screen. *g*
