Reality TV Star in the Rent movie

Did anyone see this reality TV star in multiple shots of the title song?

re: Reality TV Star in the Rent movie

If it was the one from So You Think You Can Dance, then yes.
(Martha Graham from a letter to Agnes de Mille) "There is a vitality, a life force, a quickening That is translated through you into action, And because there is only one of you in all time, This expression is unique. If you block it, It will never exist through any other medium And be lost. The world will never have it. It is not your business to determine how good it is, Nor how valuable it is, Nor how it compares with other expressions. It is your business to keep it yours, clearly and directly, To keep the channel open. You do not even have to believe in yourself or your work. You have to keep open and aware Directly to the urges that motivate you. Keep the channel open. No artist is pleased. There is no satisfaction whatever at any time. There is only a queer, divine dissatisfaction, A blessed unrest that keeps us marching And makes us more alive than others."

Yes! Blake from So You Think You Can Dance!

Glad to know he got some extra work in.

The guy from The Mighty Ducks? What? The one who did like... Dawson's Creek, or something? He looks like him, but that's not him.

re: Reality TV Star in the Rent movie

Aaron Lohr was in the mighty ducks but I don't think that is who they are talking about. Aaron played Steve (and is currently being fabulous taking his shirt off in "See What I Wanna See" right now)

Seriously, it was a loss to the Rent movie that he didn't take his shirt off at some point.
Now what would you say if today I started over? Without a thing but this taped together four leaf clover And I'll pretend like everything is already alright And I'll run toward the sun till the castle's out of sight

re: Reality TV Star in the Rent movie

Ah, okay. The guy who plays Gordon (I think) looks like that kid who played Charlie, though. My dad thought it was him, and I had to keep telling him it wasn't.

It is sad that Aaron doesn't remove his shirt.

re: Reality TV Star in the Rent movie

Aaron Lohr's voice is QUITE awesome. re: Reality TV Star in the Rent movie I believe you're thinking of Joshua Jackson, Em...

However, for people looking for similar connections... in "La Vie Boheme", Kevin Stea is one of the bohemians. He was in Newsies with Aaron Lohr, and they both appear in the funeral "I'll Cover You (reprise)" scene.

Yeah. I have too much time on my hands... anyone wanna play Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon now? re: Reality TV Star in the Rent movie

re: Reality TV Star in the Rent movie

Yeah, I think that's who I'm talking about. Doesn't it look like I pay a lot of attention to my sports movies? re: Reality TV Star in the Rent movie

re: Reality TV Star in the Rent movie

hahaaha nothing is better than Aaron in SWIWS hehe

he was also Mush in Newsies and Mickey Dolenz in the Monkees movie for VH1

Wayne Wilcox who was Marty on Gilmore Girls was Gordon. he was good, but I dont remember him on tv. I must have skipped that season
hmm...

re: Reality TV Star in the Rent movie

No no, the kid who played Charlie is Joshua Jackson - he was the one in Dawson's Creek and a plethora of films. The guy who played Steve ....he was one of the "bash brothers" in Mighty Ducks 2&3 --- the tough kid who wore a leather jacket. He looks a LOT older now. When I saw Rent at the Symphony Space...as soon as I saw him I was like "wow he looks familiar" ...and when I got home I imdb'd him.

...Who was on the So you think you can dance show that was in Rent?

re: Reality TV Star in the Rent movie

Hmmm. This is rapidly turning in to an Aaron Lohr love-thread. re: Reality TV Star in the Rent movie Not that I'm complaining. I was SO SO happy that I had the chance to catch SWIWS last month.

lol... And sports movies? All sorts of attention!

... actually, I only saw the Mighty Ducks movies because of babysitting throughout high school. The kids I sat for LOVED those things. I tried to use the Aaron Lohr connection to introduce them to Newsies, but they weren't interested.

That was SWIFTY from Newsies?!? WOW. I didn't even realize! WOW. I need to get back to the movies right now so I can actually pay attention to him. wow.

And since we're mentioning what Aaron can currently be seen doing...Wayne Wilcox can currently be seen as Duke in The Great American Trailer Park Musical, which is sadly closing this Sunday. re: Reality TV Star in the Rent movie

guess you haven't heard or scene bare?
#17

re: Reality TV Star in the Rent movie

YUP. And I won't deny that I had a small Newsies fan moment during "I'll Cover You (reprise)" due to the connection... granted, I was a little busy crying at the time, but it was there.

re: Reality TV Star in the Rent movie

And wasn't one of the bohemians a dancer on MAdonna's tour in Truth or Dare?
#19

re: Reality TV Star in the Rent movie

I just saw See What I Wanna See last week and when Aaron took his shirt off I think I may have audibly said Wow. Nice body, but more importantly, great voice.

FYI: Wayne Wilcox was only on Gilmore Girls as a guest star. But he was cute.

re: Reality TV Star in the Rent movie

I saw Wayne Wilcox in the Dangerous Beauty workshop at Vassar College with Jenny Powers and Megan McGinnis
#21

re: Reality TV Star in the Rent movie

Wayne Wilcox was the best thing about the Rent movie -- hands down.

The reality show star that is in the Rent movie is:

Blake from "So You Think You Can Dance"...amazing dancer -- and he is in the background during the title song.

re: Reality TV Star in the Rent movie

Wayne Wilcox was in the pre-broadway (Chicago-Goodman for sure) run of Light in the Piazza, Fabrizio to Celia Keenan-Bolger's Clara....


He's hot.

and who is that guy with the crazy hair in the La Vie Boheme scene??? He looks so familiar and I can't place him!

and all that I could do because of you was talk of love...

re: Reality TV Star in the Rent movie

Wayne Wilcox played Marty in several episodes of Gilmore Girls. Rory's friend at Yale. I talked to my friend after she saw it and asked if it was Kirk Cameron. Umm... no.

The first time I heard of Aaron was when I saw SWIWS (I'm not a mighty ducks girl). I was so surprised and excited to see him in the RENT movie. He was amazing in both.

re: Reality TV Star in the Rent movie

grr. blake was such a jerk in so you think you can dance, like when they found the magazine he was on the cover of, and he was a complete jerk to the Dan teacher guy. (who's kid is he, he mentioned his parents were/are Broadway related)

Aaron Lohr is really hot in Bare, like at the rave when he picks up Jenna!

re: Reality TV Star in the Rent movie

Wait, who is the character of Swifty in Newsies? When I saw it I didn't realize that Mush was in it, and had to giggle to myself a little.
