Hugh Jackman, Josh Groban, Idina Menzel, and More on Their Most Embarrassing Musical Auditions
I love how they all had these awful, failed attempts but it didn't stop them, they laughed it off, worked harder and look at where they are now. So inspiring, we all have to start somewhere!
The key to actors and actresses. Never take any thing personally.....in audition. Just keep going and prefecting the craft. And keep going to auditions.
Indina Menzel's Story is HILARIOUS!
This shows that even some of the best of the best aren't perfect and mess up once in a while.
i'm gonna miss him as wolverine but omg he is so handsome (Hugh)
Thanks for clarifying, thought you meant Josh Groban
Jeffely Heffley oh, I thought he meant Idina menzel
Mr Not That Famous Hugh is hot, he’s a man’s man.
well if it isn't aaron burr, sir
Leilani Sosa LESILE is great.
😂😂😂
ALEXANDER!
@Faagalo Collins oh well sure, sir, Im Alexander Hamilton. Im at you're service sir. I have been looking for you.
I honestly cackled when I read this
My parents saw Hugh Jackman in that beauty and the beast production and they still talk about it now😂😂
I WATCHED THIS JUST FOR HUGH JACKMAN LAST TIME, BUT IM BACK FOR IDINA- OBSESSED WITH THIS QUEEN RIGHT NOW
Hugh Jackman is so multi-talented . He is one of my favourite actors & man crush.
Hugh Jackman is the best!!!! My favorite!! I just received his autograph! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
I love Hugh so much on broadway 😍
Idina us so good that her screw up landed her one of the most iconic roles in broadway history lol
I can’t imagine wicked without idina
Omg 6 years later and Josh is finally playing Sweeney Todd. And he is AMAZING!
this why I love Hugh Jackman
I'd love to see Josh do Sweeney Todd now! That must have been so dishearting at that age for him!
Hugh is so so handsome and cute!! And oozing with tremendous talent!! 🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗
I love Lucas Steele so much omfg
0:25, 3:27, 3:37, 1:17, 2:25, 3:52 Gotta love Hugh's stories. :)
I love Gaston's "proposal" song!!!! Hugh singing that just made my day
Idina: ...because he thought I was so evil and witchy
Also Idina right after: *Wicked Witch laughs*
My girl Idina with the f word. She rocks that word better than any Wicked song she sang.
I have a man crush on Josh Groban. I’ve been a fan of his for ages, I think he’s got one of the most beautiful voices I’ve ever heard. He’s a great performer. If I ever make it big in the music industry, I would love to have a career half as successful as his.
I also love Hugh and Idina. The Greatest Showman and both Frozen films all have some of the most iconic songs ever.
nothing but respect for my president Josh Groban
this is amazing and funny and Josh Groban is amazing
I guess Idina didn't get the memo that your embarrassing story is embarrassing because you had a "fail moment" and DIDN'T get the part :/ Like, tell us about a FAILURE so we relate! WE KNOW WHAT HAPPENED AFTER WICKED! haha
Angelique Felice It was a fail 😂 it was just a good one that boosted her career
I mean...it was probably still hugely embarrassing - breaking in any audition is on a par with forgetting lines during a performance in terms of how much an actor does not want to ever experience it. In any other audition, her cursing would probably not only result in *not* getting the part but also those on the panel not wanting to see her again for anything else. It was basically just plain good luck that it went the complete opposite direction.
Fast forward to 2023 and Josh Groban is selling out the Lunt-Fontanne Theatre as a Tony-nominated Sweeney Todd.
He is AMAZING as Sweeney
Leslies singing makes me melt
It’s hard to even see wolverine in Hugh’s innocent kind face 😂😂
I love you hugh

Wicked idina?!?
I'M IN LOVE WITH HUGH JACKMAN ! IF ONLY I WAS OLDER AND I MET HIM BEFORE HIS WIFE AND I SEDUCED IM !!
Woah chill
okay....no actual footage?
Of the auditions? There wouldn't be. These were likely all (excluding Ben Platt's) auditions for stage productions - typically, the only time auditions are filmed are if the actor will need to be on camera (so really only if they're casting a movie/TV show) or on the very rare occasions the director is unable to be there in person.
Elsa < Wolverine?
1st?hahhaha
2nd

Does Idina annoy anyone else or just me? Idk guys she is just super annoying to me, since Enchanted
Just you
I know this is late, but why? I think she’s really nice and funny
