I don’t think he sings that well, but then again I didn’t see this programme to see if he was the best or not.
Either way, congrats to the both of them. :0)
OOH! Happy belated Birthday Jared!!! >.
i was so excited to see these 2 win!!! I have been rooting for both Max and Laura since the very beginning!! I can’t wait to see them on Broadway.
Laura may not be that great a singer, but she’s definitely more talented than this other reality show wannabe:
I can’t believe ppl watched this crap! Must be the same ones that watch IDOL.
I said C R A P why does it block the word C R A P of all words.
Booooring!
I hope people didn’t actually watch this s h ! t
Expect a short run at first, then a huge tunnel of money to drag the dead corpse down broadway for another 40-50 weeks.
P.S. Expect the same from the Legally Blonde show coming up.
For those didn’t like the show..do you even enjoy musicals?? Pop singers, like those on IDOL, and people in musical theater are completely different. Musical theater actors are triple threats. Acting, singing and dancing are tops. I thought this was a great way to get musicals out the masses. Both winning leads are great and full of charisma.
uhh…he’s very weird looking
Loved the show. Loved Max and loved Laura. Both are going to be absolutely terrific in the Broadway revival! Count on it.
YAY Max! YAY Laura! Both were born to play these roles!
(if people dont like the show or anything, then why do they leave comments???)
I stopped watching this show because it pissed me off. He’ll be an OK danny, but Ashley should have been Sandy….hands down.
