And there are some interesting tid-bits . . . he talks about his fight with Rosie and when someone asks him to marry them he responds with "I'll ask my wife if I can marry you. And I'll ask my boyfriend too!".

An appropriately 'Taboo' answer.

Wow. Taboo and very accurate!

Scratch my last post - it doesn't matter if he has one or not - I love his talent and thats all I need.

Hmmmmm. Very interesting. Sounds to me like he was "sugaring up" the storming out story.

Yes, he has a boyfriend. And he also has a wife.

Which I suppose isn't a secret anymore now that Raul said it himself!

screen tested for RENT?? Him and Justin Timberlake as Mark and Roger?? I can't see either of them in those roles... but i will admit I see Justin as more of a Roger than I see Raul as a Mark Updated On: 12/13/03 at 02:52 AM

I think his reply to that question was played as being "taboo" - I really doubt he has a wife AND a boyfriend. Not many wives would go for that.

Speaking of the *never was* Rent movie casting,I remember hearing that Billy Porter and Orfeh were also strong contenders, as Maureen and Tom Collins respectively. I like the idea of people never having been in the show, being in the movie...well, except for Timberlake, whom I've repeatedly made no bones about intensely disliking.

You know I've seen 'Rent' once and, from what a recall, Roger was pretty clearly supposed to be a rock-n-roll sort of guy, not a Michael Jackson-wannabe pop diva.

You nailed that description of Timberlake.

I was surprised he wanted to play Angel. Can you picture it?
