- West End star Ramin Karimloo stops by Show People to discuss his NYC concert gigs, his upcoming run as Jean Valjean in Toronto and also takes on fan questions!
I love how at 18:01 while talking about Sierra Boggess, Ramin says "Well yeah, she's my best friend" - adorable :)
Ramin never had formal training which makes his accomplishments all the more admirable
With regards to formal training-- sometimes you can neither CONFORM nor SUPPRESS natural talent with an institutional mold!
Dear god he called her Si thats so cute omg *melts*
I think a lot of Phantom fans were hoping to see Ramin and Sierra in a regular run of The Phantom; ideally on Broadway.
"It turns out you're talented, too."
"Well, that's arguable."
NO RAMIN YOU ARE INSANELY TALENTED YOU'RE SO MODEST :)
Ramin: Ok, you win the argument!
I love how he talked about Sierra. You can see how much he loves her (As friends) and is inspired by her
I don’t know why and I don’t mean to seem rude, but is anyone else kinda scared of him?
Oh my lord. Ramin has something so attractive about himself. Simply the way he moves is intriguing. I wish I could meet him, but I live in Germany! Ramin, come to your angel of music!
***** LUCKY!!!! lol I wish I could meet my angel, friend or phantom... lol
Anna Lee you an me both, girl
I wanna meet him too!!😩😩
Really, though, from all the vids I'm watching, Ramin would be a great cast member. I'd LOVE to watch him perform and then meet him!!!
Jessie Charles Ich will ihn auch treffen! Wir sind schon arm dran :/
I need to say... His voice while singing is so strong, it has so much emotions and basically goes everywhere effortless but then he speaks normally and just... wow, his voice is so mellowed, soft, gentle and soothing. I feel like hearing his voice speak will put me right to sleep.
Secondly, the way he described when he met Sierra is like he has found his true love. And when asked what show he wants to do and with whom, without hesitance, he names Sierra. Not everyone can find such a person in their life, someone you can truly click with so well. I am happy they found each other and have each other in their lives.
aw "i saw sierra boggess as fantine" and ramin says quietly "amazing"
Ramin is such a beautiful human being
also can we bring Love Never Dies on a US tour with Sierra and Ramin? That's all I want. And... front row seats. (and to meet them but let's not get greedy here)
+Kristin Z to be honest my heart would exploded if i cry every time i hear ramin sing until i hear you sing i wouldn't be able to handle it live plus seeing him and sierra together ^____^(fangirls hearts will be slayed)
Kristin Z There Start Love Never Dies here in Cali,LA Hollywood In 2018
Love may never die, but that play needs to die and never resurface again
@@kikedragoon I hate to be this person but...
*LND is a musical not a play*
@@k.hizzle5376 I thought some plays were musicals as well
I love him. He's my favorite Phantom. He was my moms too. I'm sure she's listening to Phantom in Heaven. I can't read music either and I learn completely by ear. I sing and perform and Christine is my dream role.
And he actually got to meet Colm Wilkinson on the 25th Anniversary of the Phantom, how cool is that.
He actually met Colm Wilkinson in Canada after when he went to see Phantom again another time after a school trip and he asked for some advice which Ramin took. He first performed with Colm Wilkinson at the end of Les Mis in the O2 in One Day More
despite his success i love how he still is humble and feels that there is still a lot for him to learn and do. unlike other actors who act like they are entitled after a one or two big breaks. Love you Ramin!
mandy karimloo is a lucky woman...
googling "That Iranian Phantom" right now
ctn04132 I can't find it!? There's only pictures of planes? Link me please!
How come there were no questions about Hadley Fraser?! They have like the BEST BROMANCE EVER.
21:50 "Honoring your truth" you're starting to sound like Sierra there, Ramin :))
Well he is very inspired by her off and on stage . They are friendship goals😍😍
15:45 brings up playing Valjean on Broadway: "nah that's not in the cards." LOOK AT YOURSELF NOW RAMIN, YOURE PLAYING VALJEAN ON BROADWAY!!
"I don't think of myself as a singer, it's just fun." Oh Ramin😂 you're funny
My favorite Phantom of the Opera duo! Sierra and Ramin!
This guys looks like - and seems to have the same sweetness as - Mark Ruffalo! Like his theatre-as-opposed-to-film, younger brother-from-another-mother!
Oh yes! I saw 13 going on 30 earlier and my gosh they do seem alike.
Yes, I see your point, and you're quite right.
Holy crap they do look kinda similar too-
It's amazing that Ramin as Jean Valjean "wasn't on the cards" for him as he said, and here I am, having seen him as Valjean on Broadway. Amazing. Simply amazing. And I couldn't have seen a better performance. That man has the air power of a machine, and I was awed by his talent in person. I will continue to support him, and wish him all the best.
I met Ramin Karimloo when he was in “Les Miserables’” on Broadway 🎭!! He is one of my favorite Broadway actors!! His tattoos are really great 👍. He should have won the Tony Award.
when he was talking about the person who said Raheem I died because I watched that video and that's what I was thinking
The fact that he was actually in the Phantom 2004 movie...how could they not have known they had the best incarnation of Phantom playing the bit part of the dead father? It wasn't like Gerard was a big name star then that they had to cast (he wasn't, in 2004 Gerard was known as "The dude that always gets killed off in movies", it was pre 300 and post Reign of Fire)---yeah I'll never get over it
+Julianne Hannes Can you please tell me which scene in the 204 movie we see Ramin as Christine's father. wanna go look it up.
Merthurmad the scene got deleted but Ramin was there and got credit for being in the movie, not sure if he sings in it
Julianne Hannes Tks for the info
+Merthurmad you can see him in the "Angel of music" scene.When Christine lights a candle for her father,you can see Ramin's photo! :)
+elinaki ooh ill have a look tks.
I saw him in London in Les Mis. He is literally the best Valjean I've ever seen (and I've seen the show multiple times).
He is amazing. He will always me my angel of music
His sparkly eyes will be the cause of my death someday 🥺
He does have very beautiful eyes. Let's face it, the rest of him isn't bad either!
I love his crow's feet, makes his eyes looks more gentle, sincere.. oh I love Ramin he's so nice.
He has got to be my favorite broadway performer. So talented and so good!
“We went on a school trip to Phantom, and I couldn’t think of anything worse.” WHAAAAT?! Oh, dear... he is legit KILLING ME!
HA! He said Les Mis Broadway wasn't in the cards for him. I saw him in the role las week!
Update: I've seen him in the role twice now
he's so humble
He is so fantastic... Best Phantom ever!
Thank You Paul I really enjoyed your interview with Ramin. It was brilliant and I will watch it many times.I loved the show too , Love Never Dies was brilliant . I think it needs more scenes of the stars and it would be more successful, but I still love it. Thank you again. ♡
Great interview. Loved how Ramin mentioned admiring the fabulous Terrence Mann, who is one of my longtime favourites (SO talented!). So besides acting talent, a beautiful voice, and being easy on the eyes, Ramin has great taste!
When I was a kid I was like in love with Ramin and now I'm hearing him years later and I never heard his accent and I'm shocked holy shit
I could watch and listen to this lovely man always he seems so humble and just lovely and humorous and funny,he has just finished a stint in Holly City and I will miss him in that roll as a surgeon not a happy ending.👍🇬🇧🎼🎼🎼🥰an old old fan xxx
YOU’RE TELLING ME 5 YEARS AGO I COULD HAVE SEEN RAMIN IN TORONTO IN LES MIS!?
I saw him play jean valjean in west end and he was absolutely amazing !the most amazing performer I have ever had the privilege of watching
OMG he is SO hot!!! when he spoke about Sierra " But when Sierra came in I kinda knew" realizing what he said changing it to" You" I know it's not a romance just an awsome friendship but still. Rierra is LOVE
I love Ramin Karimloo.
Sierra and ramin are on the top of my list of favorite best friends. They are so freakin cute.
I love how at the question at 29:00 he immediately said Sierra 😍😍
And i cringed and that last question
NO ONE but what show did he say he wanted to do with her
@@tiafakhouri2982 kids of the spiral or smth along that line
Ramin has this earthy, rugged beauty about him, which is actually reflected in his voice.
I know its a late comment, but in the video , Ramin said that he would never do Jean Valjean in Les MIs on Broadway. And here he is now Jean Valjean on Broadway. So ...
Such a humble and genuine guy
I just saw him in les miserable .... fantastically unbelievable performer!!
Same! I was crying so much at the end
"The part where you had to get naked?"
"Yea" *Smiles*
Dead... i love him!
The man is ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS...!!! Swoon me phantom swoon me. I'm a tenor 1 borderline contralto so lets do a duet together...;)
MY HEART IS MELTING HE IS PERFECTION
Thank god he asked about Sunset blvd! No one ever asks him about, that show is amazing. Also loved the bit about the accident he had when he played Raol ha!
Paul seems to really love Ramin! Well who does not!
He’s so precious. It’s not fair that I can’t have him
The thing I like about him is he sounds so modest and soft while talking. But when he starts to thing, his voice starts chilling everyone out.
so he's in les miz with sierra too? how awesome, they're a great duo, their voices are perfect together.
No he's not. Sierra was the Fantine in West End 12/13 I think.. And he plays now Valjean
Why not? :/
I love that he treats this like a conversation and not an interview. It just seems much more calming and flowy if that makes sense
I love him, he is so cute and handsome ❤️
I'd love to see him in Jekyll & Hyde.
Same.
Camila D yessss
I really want Ramin to play the title character in jekyll and hyde. He would be amazing
He said he wasn't gonna play Valjean in the new Broadway production...
So...apparently plans has changed! ;-)
Hearing him say les Mis bway was not in the cards for him is so strange. Saw him twice and he blew me away with his performance. He's amazing!
By far sexiest man alive... just damn
He is truly my fav phantom of all time!
I love that Sierra was my Vegas Christine and originated Love Never Dies London Christine. :)
I always pronounced Ramin's name as "RAH-MIN", it's actually "RAH-MEAN" Hahaha.
same
Ramin has a sweet voice tone and when he sings OMG one of the most powerful voices I heard! It's pretty amazing! He is very attractive no wonder why he was Phantom, such a sex appeal!
I CANT EVEN EXPLAIN HOW HAPPY I AM THAT BROADWAY.COM FINALLY MADE A VIDEO WITH RAMIN KARIMLOO OH MY GOD I LOVE RAMIN :)
I love how he compares their friendship to siblings of sort. I personally believe that they are soulmates (not romantically)
It’s funny when the last question is when are we going to get married?
Me: Mam I think that’s illegal. 😂
I love the song the girl was playing for the shower question! I love him and that was a really creative question.
I want to watch Love Never Dies! :'( Why isn't it on DVD?
The Australian production with Ben Lewis and Anna O'Byrne has a DVD but not Ramin and Sierra's original London Production. There's some bootlegs of the London production roaming around on RUclips though.
I love it
I have never head God sing but im sure he sounds something like this
He is God
such a gentlemen!!
Im sorry I know he is married and she was engaged...but i ship Sierra and Ramin forever!
I just saw on a fan forum that he's newly divorced... don't know how true that is of course but I'm all for Team Rierra if neither of them are seeing anyone else! :)
I've tried. I can't find anything else about it. That's why I said I don't know if it's true. I certainly hope it isn't but if he and Sierra have any kind of relationship I will lose a lot of respect for both of them if he's cheating on Mandy.
Fan forums aren't very reliable to be honest, it may have even been a Fanfiction. I love Rierra too but I would kill myself if Ramin and Mandy divorced. I highly doubt the article was true.
It could be a rumor saying he's divorced when really Ramin is in New York playing Jean Valjean on Broadway, and his family is still in London because his sons have school and so he's living alone in his NY apartment for weeks at a time before his family visits him again. That's where the forum you saw could've come from, it's just a rumor.
Katie Tucker I hope it's just a rumor, too, but I did notice on the second Broadway.com interview posted 11/24/14, he's not wearing his wedding band. Now that could be for multiple different reasons, obviously, and I can see where its absence might stir up some rumors. Both IMDB and Wiki still have him listed as married to Mandy as of 12/13/14.
Whatever the case, it must be hard on all of them being separated like that.
He's Iranian?! Eeeek! :D I thought so by his name and the Farsi on his arm but I wasn't sure because of his accent. He's so handsome and charming. Guh.
He's Iranian-born but he grew up in Canada. His family moved out of Iran in like the 70's
He's gorgeous. I fell in love with his voice before finding out more about him.
I SAW HIM IN BROADGRASS AND HE BROUGHT ME UP ONSTAGE AND LET ME SING WITH HIM AND I AM STILL NOT OVER IT OKAY
Did he say he can't read music??
Yes. He's not a formally trained musician. As he said, he learned how to sing, act and all that shit from books
+PeteStranger interesting that he's not formally trained, since he's such an amazing singer! He's just super-talented :D
+PeteStranger Does it mean that he can't read notes?
No, he can't!! Amazing, right?
Oh that's fine though, just do it by sound right?
I was just watching this like "Wait, this is phantom? The guy who screams about his salary? No wayyyyy."
Ramin is so handsome looking in this interview.
AH! I am SO excited to see him live!!!! Cannot wait!
He's so sweet
Woohoo Richmond Hill represent! :p Got to see him perform in Toronto and it was amazing!!!!
I wanna meet him so bad, it'd be great to just hang out with the best phantom (in my opinion)
get him in wicked with lindsay mendez, they'd be AMAZING
or stay with sierra, either way!!!!!!
My favorite Ramen is Sapporo Ichiban...but in a pinch I will eat Cup O Noodles
I have been a fan for a while and I still pronounce his name wrong from time to time. lol
Are you just a fan or a "Phan"?
At first I thought his name was pronounced Ramen so now I call him my noodle
I loved, LOVE NEVER DIES
amazingly talented, beautiful and so humble- SEXY PERSONIFIED
In reality I’m 31, but every time Ramin Karimloo crosses my screen I turn into a giggling 13 year old girl again... #swoon
Lol... me too, with the giggling. 😃
Oh, Ramin, how I love you so.
16:48, 28:50 about Sierra
Ramin karmiloo is the best actor that has ever happend to me he is awesome! I would be in heaven if I met him in real life!
I just LOVE Ramin 💓
Everyone : OH MY GOSSSSSHHH
Me: so THATS how you say his name.
Ugh he's perfection. Dimple man :)
Paul: You coming to Broadway?
Ramin: No. Not with that, no. It's not on the cards.
Ha. Good one, Ramin.
What a brilliant interview, just a tip, try and find the video where he is joined by one of his sons in a duet 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍🥰
Looooove him with the beard😍😍😍😍
I love him so much!♥
