- Andrew Rannells tells the real-life audition story that inspired his storyline in the final season of HBO's Girls and why his decision to sing "Let Me Be Your Star" from NBC's Smash was kind of out of spite.

Plot Twist: Andrew was actually auditioning for High School Musical 🏀
no please god why
TROY FUCKING BOLTON
Plot twist or fun fact?
@@stephaniezimbalist3757 plot twist haha definitely not a fact
I enjoy watching Andrew Rannells complain about stuff
Cosmic Creepers I enjoy watching Andrew talk about anything, honestly. The boy's got some serious sass.
I enjoy watching him in general
I watch it for breakfast every morning
He mentioned Christian Borle and I sobbed COME BACK FALSETTOS PLEASE WE MISS YOU
What is wrong with you, and what part of *limited run* don't you understand? If you want to watch this revival of Falsettos over and over again, you're in luck because they've filmed it: unless the White House completely eliminates public television, the new production will be on PBS next year.
This spring, Christian Borle is starring in "Charlie & the Chocolate Factory." He only agreed to a short (limited in advance) revival of Falsettos because it ended in time for him to start full-time rehearsals for his new musical.
There isn't enough demand for a full, open-ended Broadway production of Falsettos, and the actors weren't interested in committing to this: it's a small show that fit perfectly off-Broadway, and while it was a critical hit, it wasn't exactly a box-office smash during its original Broadway run 25 years ago.
Allie Schwarz I was literally joking. You don't have to be so hostile, okay? I know that Falsettos had a limited run. I'm not an idiot. That doesn't mean I can't miss it. Calm down, drink a cup of water, and stop being so quick to be rude to people. Have a nice day.
Allie Schwarz Also, I know Christian is in Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. I'm a theatre nerd. This is all I know. Also, we might not be getting the proshot because they might not "be allowed" to release it on PBS.
+Alyssa Haley You were screaming, and said you "sobbed" when you heard Christian Borle's name. What does "literally joking" mean? How is it different from plain, ordinary joking?
As for your statement, "they might not 'be allowed' to release it on PBS: Who or what are you quoting? The film exists and will eventually be available at the NYPL Theater Archive regardless of whether it is shown on TV - not that it matters much either way, because the archive is underfunded, most people don't know about it, and the library's underpaid staff makes the archive it shockingly hard for the public to access.
The 2016 revival's lyrics included some changes from the original off-Broadway and Broadway productions. I found the changes jarring at best and mildly offensive at worst; they were not an improvement and are not worth preserving. Then, the remaining lyrics were Bowderized for the two filmed performances, not because PBS asked for this, but because the producers didn't want to cause controversy by including the words "fucking" and "shit" on TV: it's a serious musical about dying of Aids, and children might be watching! So, if that's the archived version I'd rather they hadn't filmed this show at all.
Okay listen, I just made a simple comment, which was meant to be taken as a joke, and you turned it into a full-fledged argument. This is RUclips. Don't take everything you see seriously. I hope you're happy for making someone's day even worse. I hope you have a nice day, even if you still ruined mine.
"You're all supposed to be in musical theatre, we're not supposed to be good at sports!" That's me 😂
I have never related to anything more than Andrew Rannell's thoughts on basketball
"KA-KUNK!"
He's Something... Incredible
Prado73 ahhhh nice oneeee
he blows god’s freaking mind
Prado73 Truly something incredible. I’ve never seen an amazing actor of this kind. I’ve seen actors in the past, auditioning for shows which were there last but this is something incredible it blows my freaking mind!
Sorry😂
jayla._. s don’t be sorry this is amazing
He’s gonna be the actor to change all of mankind
I love watching interviews with Andrew. He's so comfortable and naturally entertaining. But I love the moment here right before they show the clip where he starts laughing and blushing like he's embarrassed. Just so cute to see someone so confident get nervous to watch himself perform.
I actually spit coffee in the first 5 seconds when he looks at Andrew sincerely and said "Can we talk about girls?" Too funny.
March March March of the Falsettos
ChckChckBoom march of the Falsettos madness
I'm not man enough for this
ChckChckBoom I

you can hear the nebraska in his voice. it’s adorable
you can hear the nebraska everywhere he goes the man doesnt shut up about it /j
I wish they never cancelled Smash, I loved that show!
He’s the one guest who doesn’t let Jimmy talk over him because he’s hilarious
I'm all for a Smash remake where Andrew Rannells replaces Katherine McPhee.
Lauren Ng yeees please!
Lauren Ng yes
hush now Kat was great in Smash. Yes they may of screwed up the stroy lines a bit but there were a lot of problems going on behind the scenes. For the most part Smash was a great show and I miss it and I loved all the cast members on the show.
PixieLowe1 it's a joke
soz :)
andrew: but that was kinda dicey for me because im not much of a dancer...
also andrew: *does book of mormon's intense but oddly ?satisfying? choreography amazingly*
Book of Mormon's choreography was so cute!
How about Falsettos, especially the opening number.
@@Anonymous_Guest Yess omg. Andrew was so good there.
@@Anonymous_Guest His Lil dance in falsettoland 🥺
How does Andrew Rannells know Let Me Be Your Star? Really? Maybe because he does musical theatre and Smash was a hit show about musical theatre...
Jimmy is an idiot.
lol yup
literally. anyone involved in musical theatre, whether they are actors or just like musical theatre, have a big ass repetoire with any song even remotely related to musical theatre shoved in there
I love Andrew Rannells! He lights up every screen, stage and room! What a delight.
“this is musical theatre, were not supposed to be good at sports!”
I kinda want to take him to Orlando
Citta Tresnati ORLANDOOO
I almost I love Andrew Rannells interviews more than his actual work.
Can they just have an Elijah spin-off? Is there a GIRLS suggestion box?
Just finished the whole series two hours ago. Elijah went from being a random character to my favorite. I’d totally support that spinoff
Right!!
@@DrMuffin1080 Andrew Rannells is the reason I checked out Girls and watched it. His character and his performances were worth it. SO GREAT!
This episode of Girls was so good. He's amazing!
I love Jimmy's face at 2:10 after Andrew says, "Ka-kung."
"We're not supposed to be good at sports!" Me too, Andrew... me too
i saw him in falsettos he was fantastic
Andrew: we're not supposed to be good at sports
Also Andrew: plays both squash and baseball in the same show
I miss Smash :'(
Sarah Paans same. the songs from the show have the most plays on my playlist
Me too
Oh damn, that was good. I mean, I knew he was good but it still blew me away. Did that even make sense? Never mind. I'm tired.
I miss his show the new normal and he was incredible in falsettos ❤️
Gotta say... SMASH is right up there with REVOLUTION as far as shows that in my opinion should never have been cancelled.
I just love him! 😍 I really hope I'll be able to see him in a musical show one day.
Yes - or see him performing at any venue as long as I get to hear him sing. He is remarkable. LOVE THIS MAN.
My goal in life is to be friends with Andrew Rannells!!!
He looks like cartoon character
he voiced a few
Tongue Less he's very... Drawable.
Precious Gregory 😂
Precious Gregory the simpons
God I get chills every time I hear Andrew sing
I love Andrew so much
How is he 40???????
Seriously. He looks 20.
He's not quite (I had to look it up) but I agree; wow!
I feel sure it's a hocus pocus situation, meaning he's sucked the souls of innocent children around him for centuries in order to maintain a youthful, glowing appearance as no one with skin that tight and hair that luscious has actually ventured far from losing all of his or her baby teeth, age wise. But seriously, he's gorgeous and ages well
There's probably a painting of him in some attic, all wrinkly and ugly, for sure.
+PoppingMagic He's not 40. He's 38. He's the same age as Joshua Jackson, James Franco, and Ashton Kutcher.
Andrew Rannells talking and singing voice tickles a part of my brain that I didn't know could be tickled
HES SO CUTE DANG IT
He need to lead a show, hilarious dude
Amazing voice! I hope we see more singing from him.
Mia Ria LISTEN TO THE BOOK OF MORMON SOUNDTRACK. HE IS ELDER PRICE
You mean after all the musicals he's been in?
LadyEmmiem. Aw, come on. He might have been kidding. At least it was positive!
LadyEmmiem. And btw you just gave my daughter emma a new nick name
Mia Ria falsettos, book of mormon (etc)
Andrew makes the world a better place I love him so much ❤❤❤❤
Andrew ❤ Rannells
He is literally my favorite person of all time!
"Why is everyone good at sports your supposed to be in musical theater!" 😂
Andrew Rannells is cool ✌✌
I like his personality.
ME TOO!!
Andrew talking about sports is actually me!!😂😂💜💜
the "keep vamping" hand wave to the accompanist at the end of the clip is amazing.
amanda kemmerer what does vamping mean?
I love him so much oh my gosh you don’t even know gahh

I love Andrew!!! He's so amazing!!!!
UGH I LOVE HIM
lol I saw Lysistrata Jones and Andrew Rannells was 100% the best part of it
Smash also makes a reference to Girls at some point
he did awesome he killed that song 😘😘😘
Andrew should have been on Smash!
"This is musical theatre, we're not supposed to be good at sports!!"
My feelings exactly Mr. Rannells!! 🤣🤣🤣
Andrew is one of my many Theatre spirit animals
What a ray of sunshine
oh dear lord I love him so much
Andrew Rannells is my spirit animal.
Andrew is my star!!
Fucking love that handsome ball of talent
just. love all of this
Such a cutie!
His head (face + hairstyle) reminds me of the young Jim Carey
He is the cutest omg
andrew in the intern just 😍
Wow that singing was amazing!!!
Fallon's laugh goes "HEHEHAHEEHEE"
Love him!
Smash is my favorite show of all time
Love him.
He is incredible
Him and Alex Wyse, the kings of basketball 💪🏼
So how was him singing that song a way to "spite NBC"?
AtomicBlonde Yeah, kinda missed that too
because NBC cancelled Smash
It's ACTUALLY because he had a show on NBC that got cancelled after its first season called The New Normal that got good reviews and reception but was still cancelled. They made fun of it during the 2013 Tony Awards with Lauren Benanti (Cougartown from NBC that got cancelled that year) and Megan Hilty (Smash, NBC, also cancelled) with Neil Patrick Harris which was hilarious. So now the running joke is they have a vendetta against NBC.
AtomicBlonde because he literally recreated the audition scene from smash but added a little bit of comedy to it. also because smash was one of nbc's most beloved shows and they still canceled it (which obviously crushed the theatre community) and Andrews show had also been canceled earlier the same year (which was also an amazing show that was canceled after one season)
Laura Benanti was never on Cougar Town and Cougar Town was on ABC, not NBC.
oh my gosh... I really miss that show now!! they shouldn't have cancelled it.
I absolutely loved that musical Lestrada Jones! It sucks that it didn't last on Broadway for very long.
Love Andrew
This reminds me of this one time when a super sporty kid and a popular kid joined drama and I’m like “I thought you had lives”
Dude when he sang “when she smiles” wrecked me in hs
i love this man

i miss smash so much
best character!
Could he be any more charming?? Me thinks not! 😆
In a musical I was in, there was juggling involved and it was a disaster. The balls sometimes rolled off the stage, sometimes ended up in the audience somehow... it's just generally known that theatre kids don't have that type of coordination lol
"We're doing musical theatre we're not supposed to be good a sports."
HONESTLY SAME
Thankyou! I tell people that I am a theatre nerd, aka I am not a sports person. They do not understand.
explains why they don't use real balls in falsettos
Iconic
I see AR, I click
