So, this is the gayest thing I have ever posted on tumblr. Which is kind of saying something.
I present to you:
A piano mashup, featuring a song by One Direction (that was written by Kelly Clarkson) and another song by Lady Gaga, that was all brought about because of a tumblr post from Tyler Oakley.
(please excuse a couple finger trip ups, this was very impromptu and without any sheets)
i am looking forward to “elementary” but mostly i am looking forward to seeing what a fandom built largely upon spite will be like
some interesting fanfiction i’ll tell you what: “and then sherlock placed his lips upon joan’s, who was a woman and also lucy liu. and they kissed. with tongues. neither of them were benedict cumberbatch at all.”
Wow, you suck. A straight proposal in the middle of a NoH8 lineup in VIRGINIA, where marriage may not be universal for decades unless there’s federal action? Yeah, I’m super sure all of the queers in line wanted photos with you. So they could go home and tell their friends the story of your unbelievable privileged dickery.
You know, aside from everything else horrible about this, what’s really getting me is the bullshit, “OMG ALL THE GAYS LOVED US! THEY TALKED ABOUT MY MAKEUP! LOL YOU GO GIRL!!!” Jesus actual Christ, talk about your straight privilege. This is horrifying.
What a fucking asshole.
NGL, I felt pretty much the same way about that proposal video going around yesterday, the one set to Bruno Mars. Yeah the concept was adorable and all, but it just upsets me when heterosexuals flaunt their right to get married when so many people can’t. Call me a heartless bitch, I don’t care.
I hate that Bruno Mars song for that very reason. It’s like, oh we’re drunk and dumb let’s get married lolz! Um…sober, seriously committed for years or not same-sex couples can’t get married but your dumb drunk asses can just order a marriage license with a shot of Patron. Neato.
The NoH8 proposal couple are douchebags, potentially even assholes. But the Bruno mars proposal couple…? I’m pretty sure telling a couple not to “flaunt” their love in front of you is a thing we’ve already discussed at length. That’s the whole point of marriage equality. Their decision to get married has nothing to do with anyone else, it is about them being in love and committing their lives to each other. Now, if they both opposed marriage equality, then I think it’s fair to criticize them. But we don’t know that.
“I absolutely hate how much all of the Disney movies have been changed on Broadway. I went to see Beauty and Beast and had to leave in the middle because all of the added unnecessary comments and new pointless songs infuriated me so much.”
Are you fucking kidding me? They added so much beautiful music to an already beautiful score.
The characters are so much more developed and wonderful. This comment is ridiculous.
As much as I adore BatB, the stage show is a little too long for its own good. It really should be about 20 minutes shorter than it is.
It’s the average length of a stage musical.
Yes, that’s the point. Most musicals are about 2 &1/2 hours long, but that’s because they have a 2 & 1/2 hour long story to tell. The film told the same story in 90 minutes. That’s an extra hour of embellishment that wasn’t necessary to the story. Some of it is really great embellishment (like “If I Can’t Love Her”, “Home”, and the Beast/Belle scene in the library), but some of it is just filler (“Be Our Guest” and “Gaston” literally doubling in length, “No Matter What”). Disney Theatricals knew that nobody would shell out Broadway ticket prices for a 90 minute show, so they fluffed it up, and I think (as did many of the critics when it opened) that they over fluffed.
because im tired of seeing white people shit all over black actors and actresses when they play a role traditionally held by some white bitch
edit: thats WHEN they get a main role most which is few and far inbetween. most of the time they are in the chorus they are the baground.
Oh please. Let’s stop playing the victim. It’s old. There are plenty of roles that can be cast regardless of race. There are also roles made specifically for black actors/actresses.
“im tired of seeing white people shit all over black actors and actresses when they play a role traditionally…”
Your stereotyping of white people is no better than what you THINK they are doing to you.
Please just stop looking for a reason to complain.
If anybody is discriminated against in theatre it is probably Asians.
Cis White male telling me im wrong abt discrimination LOLOLOLOL
Broadway is racist as fuck hun
“White male telling me im wrong abt discrimination…”
Below you will find a picture of my friends and I from last year. I am in the yellow tank top.
I’m not white.
You’d like to believe that I’m white so you can say “You don’t know what you’re talking about. You don’t know what it’s like to be discriminated against.” But I do.
look below It is a picture of me not caring that your not white
your up holding whiteness so I really dont see the difference
*you’re
To the OP - “some white bitch”…I think you might have some race issues yourself.
That being said, Broadway (and the entertainment business in general) is still racist as fuck. It’s the only industry that is still completely free to practice workplace discrimination.
