Posted: 8/26/06 at 4:02pmThat is right, Phantom2, and it makes me very sad because I could tell from Piazza that he must be a wonderful dancer.

Posted: 8/26/06 at 4:03pmYou've never seen him shakin' his buns as Link in Hairspray? Did you just land on this planet?

I only finally saw Hairspray last spring with Andrew as Link.
I saw a lot of theatre, but more Off Broadway and new plays than Broadway. I never paid much attention to the Tonys.
I wish I'd seen Matthew in the role. Perhaps one day I'll see the recording at Lincoln Center Library. But it's not the same as live performance with stage presence.

Posted: 8/26/06 at 5:27pmMatt's dancing in Hairspray was one of the best experiences I ever had in a theater ! He is BRILLIANT in everything he does, but if I was forced to choose between his acting, his singing and his dancing I'd choose his dancing !

We saw Matt's last performance as Link here in LA before he went to film MATTRESS. He represented himself outstandingly on all three fronts - acting, singing AND dancing.
And his back wasn't bad, either

Sank you bebe.
Coming from a sweet thing like you with that glorious hat in your av I can only take it as a compliment.
And was it the beak, the sunglasses or my resilient fondness for Mr. Morrison that gave it away? Ah, vas eet merely ze francais!? Pas de tout.

He actually did work in a few learn to dance hiphop videos, if I'm not mistaken. There's a site out there to do with tubes that has some Hairspray things on it. The boy can REALLY move! O_O

I think that he needs to originate another role. I'd like to see other sides of him!
Oh, and if my french is correct, doesn't "nous" mean "us?"

Crass comment #3: I'd like to see his front side.
I'll try to contain my enthusiasm on the boards from now on!

Well, Tagi, perhaps he'd like to see your front side, too. But then you might see only his back as he runs off, terrified. Ah dunno. But it might be very dramatic.

Well, Tagi, I do not advise tossing all your clothes off at his next stage door.
Nor would I advise sending him your naked photo.

I personally would have no objection if Mr. Morrison wanted to toss all his clothes off around me and dance about naked. I would just think of it as some ancient Dionysian ritual. I'd give him vine leaves to wear in his curls.
I would only object if someone suggested that I remove my garments.

Posted: 8/26/06 at 7:31pmThere's also a something on a website that has to do with tubes that has the OBC cast of Hairspray doing YCSTB on the Today Show and... well, you can kind of see something... PLEASE don't tell me I'm the only one that noticed that...

Posted: 8/26/06 at 11:32pmI want to be like one of those girls on MTV's "Sweet 16" and through a lavish party and have Matty all greased up and carrying me into my ballroom of a party...

You want Matthew all greased up and you want him to carry you?
Sounds slippery.
How do you mean all greased up? Like an auto mechanic? Well, you wouldn't want to wear your best if that's the case.

Posted: 8/27/06 at 12:00amGreased up like he's been dancing in the sweltering heat in Egypt. And I want him to wear a pharoah's hat.

You'd cover his hair?
Have you been drinking?
Now the male version of harem pants I could see.
