"Noah, someday we'll talk again. But there's things we'll never say. That sorrow deep inside you. It inside me, too. And it never go away. You be okay. You'll learn how to lose things..."
im still trying to figure out that why after all the people they could have picked, they picked al sharpton. i think they did it on purpose to get a lot of people talking about it. lol.
I thought they should have called up 4 celebs (my dream spellers: Idina, Erin Dilly, Norbert, Sara Ramirez) but Sharpton (as much as I hate him) was very funny. When they called his name, the people around me were find of laughing but in an "I dont get it kind of way" until he actually came out LOL.
I think Al DID have fun up there. One of the funniest things was that he kept a straight face. When he sat back down in his seat in the audience he had a HUGE smile on his face. I thought it was genius to get someone so serious and well respected to participate in such a fun and silly performance.
Even though I love Idina, I don't think that it would have been nearly as funny with her up there. Everyone knows Idina has a sense of humor. As you could see in the pre-broadcast when she was handing out the Tonys, she is very cute. And with the, "I like chocolate." "I like cheese," dance that she and JLT did on the stage at Wicked, we know that she can be silly.
Like I said, I thought it was great to have someone so straight-laced and serious up there with all the neurotic "kids." I especially loved, "He is running for class president on a campaign of racial equality and mac and cheese." :)
