*Ducks the brick thrown at head*


They have updated the behind the scenes pictures on Wicked's official site. Half of them are new, many are just bigger. Still very good stuff. Michelle looks lovely, and David is chugging Starbucks.

Is it just me or does Jeffrey Kuhn look too old to play Boq. Chris Fitz and Randy Harrison were atleast 30 something this guy looks 40!

Yeah I agree with you on that. He looks way too old to play Boq. I mean he, himself, doesnt look very old but he looks too old to play the character.

What I think is funny is I have NEVER seen him smile. He looks pissed in his headshot, and all the pictures of him in Wicked he has the same pissed expression. Chris Fitz was always Mr. Smiley, I loved that.


Pst- Get Elijah Wood to play Boq! He can sing!

Elijah supposively takes lessons, and he sang a bit on SNL (dressed up as Boy George no less). He's pretty good. I'm usually completely against stunt casting, but he would be great in the role. I'm sure he'll be considered if they make a movie, how many years from now that is.

Yeah, poor Jeffrey. Look, he might be talented, but he's just too old (sorry Jeff, but it's the sad truth). I mean, I hear he's good, but he doesn't have that thing that Chris had.

It is good that David Ayers knows how bad coffee is for your throath/voice..

That's really strange that David Ayers is drinking Starbucks before going on to sing... I don't know about you other singers out there but caffeine REALLY messes with my voice... not the greatest thing right before you sing!

people wow, when i went backstage i asked him that question why does he always drink starbucks before going onstage and its not coffe people its tazo tea NOT COFFE ITS TEA thank you

Lol okay well then that's good. It was a little confusing at first... esp. since the caption says he "caffeinates" before making an entrance.

Jeffrey Kugh looks WAY older than 40! It looks like an (almost)elderly man playing Boq.

David Ayers might be drinking tea w/ honey. Or maybe it IS coffee- I've read some nasty reviews about his singing.

Yeah, too bad tea is still caffeinated.

Not all tea is. Besides, if he wants to drink caffeine, that's his choice. Maybe he doesn't feel that it affects him.

Tea is still pretty bad for your throat in a short term sense....it dries it out, almost as abd as coffee does...

[SallyBrown]

Posted: 3/7/05 at 5:03pm

really? I was always under the impression tea was good for your voice...

Jeffery does look old to be playing Boq, especially with the stupid hat/wig thing. But in terms of his acting he does a surprisingly good job.

[LilMissBway14]

Posted: 3/7/05 at 6:24pm

Yeah, he can drink whatever he wants- I mean, he got the role somehow... I've heard some great things about him! Just thought it was strange. It's all good, it's all good.
