kristina rodriguez can you imagine if they did Part of Your World as a duet though bc Eric wants to be doing other-than-princely things right? I would love that
I cant believe this man went from playing Harry Potter in an unauthorized college Harry Potter musical to nominated for an emmy twice Edit: and wINNING AN EMMY!!!
Can you please explain wdym? Literally no Emmy/Oscar/Tony winner had played in high-budget 10/10 series/movie/musical in the beginning of their career so I can’t really understand your logic, actors do develop actually :p
Ben Garrison well yes. In The Cursed Child Hermione is a black woman, Harry's first girlfriend in books and movies was Cho Chang, who is Asian, Dean Thomas, a Gryffindor classmate was a black man. There are a few others. I get your point, and you aren't wrong that there aren't nearly as many, but that is an issue JK has tried to fix starting with Cursed Child and some of the stuff on Pottermore.
@Gregor Clegane Those are irrelevant, minor characters. There isn't a POC main character. And even if there were - it won't be enough diversity. Because POC are priveleged + racist who possess institutional power over the physically and mentally handicapped peoples, LGBTP+, and undiscovered extraterrestrial and interdimensional beings who have not received their suffrage yet. This "show," Harry Potter, is incredibly racist, and I'm disgusted by the fact that you enjoy such trite.
Erin Lee YASS HE REALLY DOES! He’s already been prince Eric in the Hollywood bowls production of the little mermaid a few years back so it’s only natural that he actually be in a Disney film now!!!
@@sij809 hahahaha i knew he wasn't going into it so i was equally impressed, but he comes from glee so what do you expect. He is a true thespian lol. I was just wondering how he nailed him so spot on from what all I've heard about him. Scary thought to think you were in Fl at the time that monster was running around and they weren't finding him. If that happened today people would lose their shit! All because he was gay they didn't see him as a threat or care about the victims. Sad. I thought the stort filled in a lot of gaps nobody knew.
gwendy42 Thank you for the clarity. I am in NO way interested in, or aware of, anything HARRY POTTER. I had no idea how Darren was connected to it. I’m sure it was a great show,.
cards0486 Darren played HARRY FREAKIN POTTER in the A Very Potter Musical musicals parodies of the Harry Potter books/musicals. He the show along with a few more people. They are very funny and has amazing music. I highly recommend them and any other musicals Team StarKid does.
That's because you have a pavlovian response to the infantile propaganda peddled by one of the largest corporations in the world. They train lifelong consumers. In other words, you got caught up in America's childishness web. You have 72 likes because this response is generic at this point. Go to a dinner party or a get together. You will hear a variation of your comment more than once. Race, class, gender, and sexual orientation seem not to matter in this form of mass indoctrination. Just make sure that people cultishly repeat this line ad naseum. I'm not criticizing your love for Disney products. No. Rather, just showing you how easy you have been manipulated to be a free Disney ad. If it's that easy for Disney, just imagine what entities have you "trained" as well.
@@rocketfallen That's not what I'm talking about at all. Just go back to being a human commercial. That way you won't have to do the uncomfortable thing and think critically. That's the purpose you'd like to serve. Go for it.
where's the harm? Here's the harm: The way corporations make money is by doing things their competition are not yet doing, and the infantilisation of the American population (spreading across the rest of the world) seems an inevitable consequence of a vulnerability of the capitalist system: once a nation has been lifted into moderate affluence, it's increasingly hard to find profitable "low hanging fruit", and as soon as you do, some other corporation tries to steal it. When it's made difficult to make an honest buck, the stark alternatives are ruin vs dishonest practices (and this dishonesty is particularly pernicious when viewed through the lens of actions contrary to society's future prospects). So business interests corner each other into increasingly dodgy re-engineering of the consumer's responses, witness the exploitation of (by sucking shamelessly up to) the teenager, and eventually the child -- starting in the 1950s -- which involved breaking ranks with their parents, who in those days saw their job as being to deliver adults to the world, not passive, self involved addicts to gratification. Perpetual infants are easy to sell to because they have poor impulse control, and buy stuff they don't need with money they haven't earned yet. It may sound as though I'm claiming that the harm is innocent, and I'm not naive enough to believe there are not bastards with evil intent, like the Brothers Koch, but I think that players like that have just sped up a process which was probably inevitable. I guess they are more than proportionately responsible for the takeover of policy by lobbies, and Trump's appointments just make shameless what was already shameful.
@@louisebrown3276 Ben is just trying to get himself and his family killed. nazis like him are only useful as a stain on the floor. Make sure to torture this garbage first so he gives up the other roaches. Also, as a demoralizing tactic make sure you exhume his inbred forefathers. They were supposed to be buried in a pet cemetery. But, just throw them in a landfill and be sure to take a piss on them. It's good for the environment. Nazis only respond to murder. Anything else is a wasted effort
Double Malfunction yeah I know. He also had a video posted on his you tube page of him singing it. It’s a ooooold video, pre glee back when he had his Harry freakin potter hair. LOL
I feel like I'm the only person who was introduced to Darren through Hedwig. I saw the show for my birthday in May 2015. Then eventually I got to Glee, Gianni Versace, and then the AVPM Series
Darren as you see,Kevin mchale,chord ,Amber are song writing and singing(separate ,not together),jenny won a Tony as a producer for musical,yeah she does some Broadway,Kevin and jenny are holding(or probably in recent past held) a podcast show called showmance where they talk variety of things with glee cast mates. Chris colfer is a famous author for children's books (famously the land of stories)-not starred in movies or sung anything after glee,probably we'll have some projects by him in future,lea went on tours with datren criss(music tour), Naya died while saving her son from drowning in river (I Don't know the name),Mark committed suicide before getting arrest for his crime of possession of children pyrography photos and Cory died from drug overdose
These Starkid comments are sending me lol, but I actually have been to Tramp Stamp Granny's several times and wanted to talk about it a little bit. If you ever have the opportunity to go, DO. It's one of my favorite places in the world. It's a small place, with a full bar, a few booths, and stools around the piano. I usually get there when it opens at 8 and plonk myself onto a stool and stay at the piano until it closes at 2 (most people stand around and dance though lol). The pianists are FABULOUS, especially Laura Wiley. Darren isn't lying either, he's there a lot. He's shown up probably 75% of the times I've gone, and always hops on the piano for a few songs before hanging out in a private booth or outside (and it's a testament to how amazing the place is, because I've literally had to choose between getting to see Darren Criss hang out in the patio and keeping my spot at the piano stool, and I usually choose the piano). And when he gets on the piano, I'm literally less than 2 feet away lmao. Everyone there is so nice and so happy, it's just an absolute joy to be a part of. The bartenders are fun, the pianists are incredible, and I've never seen any drunk drama. They also have themed nights, Queer Cabaret, Disney night where they encourage cosplay, etc. I was lucky enough to win their first singing competition and their second Halloween costume contest (as Ursula), and my my won their first costume contest (as Maleficent). And despite being owned by the Man himself, it's not impossible to get in. It very much feels like a small, intimate piano bar that absolutely does get lit when they play the same songs they play every single time. I adore it, and if you're ever in Southern California, I cannot recommend the place enough. 💕💕
look at all these intellectuals quoting starkid in the comments im so proud

He was Prince Eric in a live production at the Hollywood Bowl in 2016.

Bold of you to assume that AVPM wasn't the best thing that's ever happened to anyone's career.
@@filipd3679 I think the point was that it's super cool to see him succeed, since we saw him in AVPM.
@@filipd3679 he was in a college parodie musical of harry potter. That went viral in 2009

Oh Darren I love you.
Underneath these stairs I hear the snares and feel the glares of my cousin, my uncle and my aunt
I know I don't deserve these
Stupid rules made by the Dursley's
Here on

SPOILER ALERT: He wins the Emmy. And John Legend gets his EGOT anyway. Don't we all love a happy ending?
Awww yes we do 😂
did John get his EGOT with just music or acting too?
But Darren didn’t fall down the stairs :’(
Darren is just SO likable. Every time he does an appearance, I’m left wanting to be friends with him.
Sammmmeee tho I wanna be more then friends if you know what I mean!
filipino trait out there.... friendly...
Everyone wants to be friends with him
"You know him from Glee," sure Jan, that's what we know him from. Suuuure.
I FIND that you’re correct
I want to learn piano just to walk into his bar, sit down at the piano, and just take off with a thrilling rendition of "Gilderoy" from AVPSY.
i would pay to see that
I WOULD DIE FOR THIS
Actually i know this next guest as harry freaking potter, but okay.
Oh come on, you know what he meant! You're no fun.
Harry Potter is as white as the Ku Klux Klan. Where are the non-white, POC characters?
And that's totally awesome!

After they made Jonathan Groff prince consort Darren should be next
And don't forget he starred, sang and wrote songs as Harry Potter in "A Very Potter Musical" (as every Potterhead knows)!
piano bar
Also a pretty amazing run as Hedwig...
To be fair, the first time I heard he was playing Hedwig, I was like "So he's playing the owl as well now?!"

He has a own bar
I am personally offended that other people only know him from Glee.
I was really small when HP Musical came out xd
i was like 4 when AVPM was a thing i feel like i should be given the benefit of the doubt 😩🥺😔
i feel like its okay for people to only know him from glee but okay-
I will always see him as Harry Potter.
Haha true.
You mean, "you know my next guest from A Very Potter Musical."

Better than him being under the stairs
Darren Criss is one of the most amazingly talented young men in the business of show. Brilliant.
Thank you for not asking him Glee questions. Colbert's not like that.
Wait he was in glee?
Versatile_llama yea😂 hes the best character in the show
That hairgel dunk boy,open gay character,that's this guy
This guy is amazing in the Murder of Gianni Versace. Probably the most talented actor from the new generation I have seen so far.
it's never not gonna be weird to see mr. "harry freakin' potter" himself on late night shows and stuff wow
