Rent - Rent (Drew Lachey & Jeremy Kushnier)

[xxtontixx]

Jeremy Kushnier is awesome.

[tankmaster1018]

most undramatic ending ive ever seen.

[USCthea89]

why does he sound like his tongue was numb the whole time?

[blyan85]

I just saw Jeremy Kushnier in Next To Normal. He was wonderful as the Doctor.

[FireAllianceNX]

lol I love this. I remember seeing Drew when he first started, and near the end of his run. Huge improvement! He had gotten a lot better. Also, it was weird to see Jeremy tower over him after seeing him with Matt. Drew's Mark doesn't handle Jeremy's angry Roger as good as Matt's Mark. hehehe <3

[shadowkid379]

this must have been boring.

of all the Rent's i've been too the crowd was totally siked and screaming and stuff when each song started.

they deserve the shouting and stomping from the audience.

[trec1080]

I've seen rent on broadway a few times. Drew is good. Period. I also Saw Jeremy Kushnier in a regional production of Chess a few weeks ago hahah.

[trec1080]

I've seen rent on broadway a few times. Drew is good. Period.

[Schulzman94]

Do you have 'Today 4 U' ?

[xemily91]

this is a great cast. I especially like Mark, but Roger's a little different...well, no, i take that back. He's a good Roger, (the actor, I mean, sorry, i don't know his name). I think he nailed Roger's "rockstar" personality & movement. Of course, I favor the originals. No offense to any of the other casts, though. I don't think I can hate a cast of this show.

[phantom7911]

god im so happy i didnt see this live. the mark and roger suck.

[ch0pstikx]

Hey, I've met Drew. Never knew he did this. weird...

[jesusfreak34988]

i want to know who's idea it was to put famous known singers into roles like this ...i mean is not bad but just not my cuppa tea

[teamfelton]

I think Drew was okay in this, but I don't see him as a Mark. He did better than Joey, sure, but I like them both. My favorite Mark will always be Anthony Rapp and/or Adam Kantor, though. (:

[drew1808]

Drew is not bad at all. They are all good. Drew is way much better than Joey Fatone. His acting is not bad. Drew started as a pop star so he is used to perform that way. He can sing and he can act. Maybe he is not one of the great actors in the in broadway but his not the worst. He can still improve. Maybe his personality doesnt fit his character.

[rcocenzo]

Yes, he got the look and vocal type for Mark. Maybe he needed more pratice. I used to sing and dance pop music when i was younger. Once i did an unofficial Rent´s performance. I was Mark´s understudy, was pretty hard for me to fit on the character. Not much on the act, but the vocals just freaked me out. I even got some sing classes of musical theatre.

[TheRealKonstantine]

all i have to say is that Drew Lachey is WORLDS better than joey fatone.

and what, Mel B played mimi?

What's with singers from crap 90s bands doing major Broadway roles?

[rcocenzo]

Yes, and Kevin Richardson (from Backstreet Boys) Playied Billy Flinn on Chicago (Broadway, Anniversary, West End and Japan).

[hamlet223]

Roger and Mark sound good here, but only in harmony. Alone, they sound kind of bored.

But considering what they have to live up to in Rapp and Pascal, they didn't do a bad job.

[TheLyricBox]

Wow... Drew Lachey Sucks...

[hcm8890]

drew was a pop star first. he is used to his performing that way. his "headlines, breadlines" move was pop starry.

[rcocenzo]

lol!but know what? maybe he was directed to act like that. When Usher did Chicago, he was instructed to do some hip-hop dance moves. Those pop fellaz are invited to call the atention of other kind of public.

[SBScjjo]

not feelin it.

too bad cause i feel like they're trying.

[bailee911]

theyre pretty good...adam kantor and will chase are my favorite =)

[biglittlekid]

Merle is a goddess <3

[TheDrama10111]

this mark sounds like he has stuffy nose

but ughhh

CANNOT COMPARE TO ORIGINAL MARK AND ROGER

[fatlumps32]

Y'all are crazy...aside from Drew...this is one of the best casts that was there!

[FarrSight]

Ew this Mark sounds like he's singing all nasally and the Roger isn't very good either :/

[lmw8880]

i love Jeremy, saw him twice in Aida, loved Merle, she's my favorite Joanne that i have seen (also twice) and I met Benny once (i can't remember his name!), however, stunt casting with Drew Lachey, not so good. He gets an A for effort though!

[erinl2]

Jeremy's great. He's been terrific in every show he's done - Rent, Footloose, AIDA, Jersey Boys.

[truss405]

I think Jeremy Kushnier has the best voice of any Roger I've seen. He was the original Ren McCormack in Footloose and absolutley nailed it. Drew Lachey is awful

[fashionislust]

ehhh, it doesn't seem like anyone completely commits to their characters :/ i'm sure if i haven't seen better productions i'd think this was pretty good.. buttttt OBC for life.. <3

[MyTangoMaureen]

Gah, they are ok. Not the best I've scene. They have good voices, but they don't nail their charaters. Sorry guys. And they are kinda pitchy at times and flat. And the collins. . .-.- But still ok-ish. The Joanne is pretty good though, along with Benny. He's pretty ok. Anthony and Adam are the bestest, though. :P

[Tyses]

-_-

[USCthea89]

ew lol

[Ropo07]

i cant believe this happened

and that they allowed it on broadway,

[macrent2]

@Ropo07 I know it wants to make me throw up!

[MrJohneybgood]

@Ropo07 What the hell is wrong with it?

[shavemangin]

this collins is one of the worst actors i have ever seen!!!

[trjfred]

adam and anthony only please!!

[musiccrazy716]

poor drew he just doesn't nail the part of roger anthony was amazing in it.

[KomplexiveMind]

you mean the part of Mark. Anthony Rapp was Mark not Roger

[cmonmarlene]

drew blows.

j kush is real good.

[km333222]

HAH almost as bad as joey fatone.

roger is good though

[mrsralbinopumpkinhea]

drew still sings like he's in a boy band. poor guy. his voice is ok though. but i dont think he got the character.

[MarandaEttawa]

Jeremy Kushnier is AMAZING!!!! WOW!! He resembles Adam. Drew, I'm sorry...so musical theatre isn't your thing!

[scaner3]

I first heard Jeremy as Ren on the Footloose musical soundtrack

[MarandaEttawa]

Really? He's actually doing Jersey Boys now. He was in Chicago for some time and he was the best Tommy DeVito

[rcocenzo]

This was his first experience as musical actor. He did Spamalot last year, at least it was better than this.

[broadwaygeek999]

i cant believe im saying this but joey fatone might have done a better job then drew lachey i mean god joey fatone sucked and if hes better then drew was a disaster

[Thewaiter525600]

I feel like I'm at a really boring meeting rather than watching RENT.

BOOOOOOOORING Drew Lachey.

[FacingItAlone]

Wow Drew is terrible..

[lennoshane]

god drew is awful- and not just compared to antony rapp, the final mark was in the same league as rapp. god hes bad

[crooklynking]

drew lachey cant act lik at all

[katygal86]

Eh it was ok........I wasn't tooo estactic about it though...that might be b/c I just saw Adam and Anthony in Philly and I'm spoiled..... :)

[ttlykate]

im pretty sure it was from 2005

[BassPlayingChick55]

btw when was this show?

like what year

[ZFHProductions]

this is why pop stars should not do broadway.

[crooklynking]

drew cant act

[greenemerald152]

only roger had the best energy, everyone else was just ehh

[BassPlayingChick55]

thats jeremy kushnier forrr youuu

hes awesome in jersey boys tooo

[5660201]

of course he can sing and he totally HOTTTT but the worst actor ever award goes to...

[Tannaw1234]

hes not the best mark but hes not the worst either the worst was joey from nsync

[SGB301]

true that yo! joey fatone was a complete joke lol

[ElEmAyOhSoFake]

i thought drew was great as mark! and i saw him as patsy in spamalot. :) it was great.

[lovecookies94]

Mark seemed really bad, sorry

[DivoDC]

um....ya....drew can for sure hump a door nob and die

[lilboyfresh40]

drew can suck a big fat one. adam kantor is the most amazing everrrrr.

[pixel1xo]

lmao.

[macrent2]

Yeah, pretty sad, huh? No wounder it is now closed!

[pixel1xo]

um.. drew isn't the reason the show closed, lol.

[erinl2]

macrent, that was a silly comment. This video was from a show several years ago.

[erinl2]

You obviously have never seen anyone else as Mark if Adam is your favorite. LOL.

[lilboyfresh40]

actually i've seen like 4 different marks. just my opinion. ass.

[Jenna10227]

I liked Adam, but he's certainly not my favorite...

[pixel1xo]

kantor owns.

[kittypurrrr]

@erinl2 Adam Pascal was Roger... Anthony Rapp was Mark...

[nemineminy]

I really liked him, too!!!

[LivLgh5]

yeah. drew def just ruined this song for me

[macrent2]

Its like he just don't give a damn!

[maximum18]

um drew sucks.

[mharden13]

Yeah...like why is he even in the show...he can't act...

[crazypoundpupp]

ahhhh jeremy
