I think that they are hiding the fact that he really really can sing. He went to a school that is second to Julliard and he was cast in Rent.

Go Constantine!

Stage presence. The fact that he was in a band prior to this has given him the opportunity to learn how to work a crowd. Plus he's sexy as hell!

AI isn't just about singining, it's also about appeal & likeability.
Chemistry, "It factor", stage presence, sex appeal, whatever you want to call it, he has it. Think Jim Morrison (The Doors) or Michael Hutchence (INXS) ~ those guys personified sex. Not that Constantine is in that league, don't misunderstand, but he reminds me of them.

There is just something about him that draws me to him (and no it is not because I think he is cute b/c he's not that good looking) Doesn't have the best voice, but has an "IT" factor that pulls you in.

yes, but plays/musicals are choreographed for you, & you are playing a scripted character, whereas when you're in a band, it's all on you as yourself (or your stage persona) to work the crowd & make them like you. That's what I meant.

I guess what I was trying to put across is that he's had "experience" and in order to be in a musical on Broadway like Rent you have to have something. You and I are going to be squabbling over this hunk all season trying to get it "just right". :rofl

That is why I think they are "hiding" the fact that he can really sing...they have portrayed him as "the rocker".


good luck in you impending marriage to the newly single Mr. Pitt :lovestruc

I've been trying for a while now to figure out who he reminds me of. I finally did. He reminds me in some ways of Scott Stapp (sp), the lead singer of Creed. He's not anywhere near as good-looking and from what I've seen, I don't think he's as good as a singer. But, there is some sort of a resemblence.
