JC Chasez, John Lyndon, Michelle Williams & Brandon Boyd |
The tour will star lead singer of the Sex Pistols John Lyndon aka Johnny Rotten as Herod, Incubus lead singer Brandon Boyd as Judas, NSYNC's JC Chasez as Pontius Pilot, and Michelle Williams as Mary Magdalane. Jesus will apparently be played by Ben Forster, the winner of a UK TV reality series to find the next Jesus called "Superstar".
Am I the only one who is more impressed with the fact that there was a JC Superstar tryout reality show than about a bunch of washed up pop starts being in the tour?? I want to watch Superstar! How can I find it in the US??? It was either really bad if there was a bunch of crappy pop American idol types trying out or awesome because there were real rock singers from bands trying out. I guess I'll have to figure out how to watch the show to find out.
Boyd and Williams were on Good Morning America this morning to announce the tour and sing the title song. I have to say I'm pretty impressed with Boyd's performance, he has the perfect voice for Judas and I'm excited to see him on stage. Williams looks like she might break apart from being malnourished but I'm sure she'll do a decent job, she does have a good voice. The 12-year old inside me is actually really excited to see JC, because he was my favorite! I still think he's really sexy, hopefully he doesn't suck. I really don't know what to think about Johnny Rotten playing Herod, if he still has energy and his voice is still there it might be awesome, but he's pretty old now.
Someone uploaded a video of the entire 2012 Broadway production that they must have secretly taped. It's actually decent quality. If you have some time to spare check it out. And thank you to whoever took this video!
