I have no idea what his name is, but in the last revival of LA MANCHA, there was a member of the corps that, when he came on stage, I forgot about everything else. Gorgeous man, more solidly built than your usual dancer. Even now, years later, I can still vividly see him.
::sigh::

And finally, special mention for a show whose 2011 tour produced a crop of fine men indeed...

Well. Back when I was about 13 I went with my accordion school (yes, accordion school!) to a Broadway matinee performance of 1776. My brother, a friend and I were seated in the first balcony, situated directly above the stage. A young Betty Buckley played Martha Jefferson. At one point she stood singing directly below where I sat. As my 13 year-old eyes stared straight down the top of her dress, I fell in love forever.
Oh and the cute sailors in Anything Goes :P
After watching The Phantom of The Opera on Great Performances last night, I have to add Ramin Karimloo to my list.
Gator-You took mine! Ramin Karimloo is definitely mine right now. (And I want him to come to Broadway soon). Paolo Szot is another one.
Sierra is one lucky mermaid...are they still an item?
Gator-She's engaged to someone else (Tam Mutu I think is his name). Ramin Karimloo is married from what I understand.
Thanks...I was confused. .

I have had an enormous crush on Ben Wright and Robert Westenberg since I was a little girl, obsessively watching my Into the Woods VHS.

Audra. Hands down.
Vivian Nixon (dancer...she was in Memphis...those of you who watch "Smash" can see her in some of the choreographed numbers) runs a VERY close second. Not a star but an electrifying dancer...yum.
My talent crush is...
...Mandy Patinkin.
Alan Rickman as Elliot in Private Lives (delicious in a tux)
Claire Bloom as Clytemnestra in Electra (delicious in red)
Andrew Samonsky as Cable in South Pacific (just delicious)

Right now, definitely Nina Arianda...she was so sweet and gracious and hugged me several times and kissed me twice at the stage door. And just as the added perk, she looks amazing on stage, eh?

probably either Gavin Creel or Andrew Keenan Bolger...
the list would be endless, but Gavin Creel, Jonathan Groff, Aaron Tveit, Aaron Lazar, Andrew Rannells (after hearing him sing "Music That Makes Me Dance" at this year's Broadway Backwards, wow!) would all be right up there.
And always and forever, Steve Sondheim, whose work changed many of our lives.
And Audra McDonald, for sheer talent and beauty.
Jeremy Jordan. Aaron Tveit is a very close second though.
Kristin Chenoweth. I have a copy of the Wicked Grimmerie, and there is a picture of her in it wearing the famous Glinda Bubble Dress. Sexy.
