Oh, but Raúl's old headshot is like, his single most unflattering photo ever.
All better.

awwww, I like the headshot actually :)
but HUZZAH that picture is amazing!! WOAH.
*dies a bit*
Did anyone view the pics on the home page of ASCENSION opening Off-Broadway?
Brandon Ruckdashel isn't bad, I guess...
Honestly, I don't understand the Michael Cerveris appeal. Is it because he's bald?
That's ok, Bwayboi. I know I'll get rapped on the head for this, but I don't get the Raul appeal either. *ducks*
My votes are nothing new:
Adam Pascal and Patrick Wilson top my list, with Steve Pasquale still awaiting his star-making role.

^for me, if I just saw a plain old pic of raul, I prooob wouldn't so much get the appeal, but the second you see that man step on a stage, or hear his orgasmic voice, or even just hear him in an interview, that's when you're just like *I WANT YOU* :) he is SO APPEALING... its just his personality or something, its just fantastically yummy!
MYB, have you ever seen him perform? His appeal tends not to be solely based on his looks, but rather runs much deeper. Although I do I think he's gorgeous, if he were just some dude I saw walking down the street, I wouldn't really fall over myself about it or anything, but there's something about him. I hate to call it like... just being overtly sexually charged, but that's sort of the vibe I think a lot of people get. And he's really damned smart, which never hurts.
Cerveris makes bald work. :)
I saw Raul in Rocky Horror, which he was terrific in. But there was nothing in that role that made me see through to the appeal of the actor himself. I should probably see him in a more traditional (less made-up) role. There are plenty of people out there for whome the appeal is a live thing, not a photographic thing. :)
Yes, Emcee. YES! Cerveris makes bald work. That's it.
I think Michael is ridiculously attractive, and I'm not even sure why. But... wow.
The smoldering look that's constantly in his eyes, perhaps? He also has a wonderful speaking voice -- something that I always tend to pay attention to.

I get the Michael Cerveris appeal actually.. like I can see why other people could find him really attractive. I personally just dont really know enough about him to judge well.. I've basically only seen pics... and he's nice looking.. but I think I'd prob need to get to know his personality a bit more to really find him attractive myself :)

I get Michael Cerveris's appeal, I guess. His eyes are so...blue.
Aaron Lazar's voice is great. I didn't like him in Piazza though.
Raul...yowza! WOW.
Josh Strickland is decent looking.
But Adam Pascal and Norbert Leo Butz... I love them both.
Oh I can name a few:
Adam Pascal--- Good lord, I have seen him on Broadway, in concert, in person... sexy as hell and he gives great hugs.
Gavin Creel --- Gorgeous voice, gorgeous man
Stephen Lynch --- He is so utterly adorable and has beautiful eyes.
Barrett Foa -- Yummy
Aaron Lazar -- I loved loved him in Light in the Piazza and he has such a beautiful, rich voice
John Lloyd Young --- Gorgeous brown eyes, so gracious, down to earth and such a sweetheart. His talent gives me goosebumps.
Patrick Wilson -- HOT HOT HOT
Hey - sorry to rabbit trail on here - where can I find the Les Mis rehearsal videos? Sorry - can't find it anywhere. Thanks!

They're more adorable than actually HOT, but oh how very incredibly adorable they ARE <333
and um, I DEMAND that there be more pics of stephen online. Seriously, there's REALLY not many like at all, and it is terrible! Buut, I guess the fact that I think every single one of his comedy videos is online (or it def seems that way anyway) makes up for it a bit :P
Thank you SNL89 for posting Aaron Lazar's picture! I adore him!!!

*Pssst...Snl...if you go to www.stephenlynch.com on the right hand side is a link to his Flickr page. There's the most pictures you'll find of Stephen anywhere, besides Cara's professional photos on the LynchMob, and hers require permission to use.*

oohhh yes I had totally forgotten about the flicker page! hehe. Thank you for reminding me!!
*goes to swoon some more*
:P
I agree Raul will get posted a million times - tons of talent - versatile and great voice.

I think the appeal behind Michael Cerveris has to do with the fact that he's so talented...at least it is for me. If an actor is really talented, I am immediatly more attracted to them, not matter how good-looking they already are. If they're not talented, I'm not attracted to them.
