Jake! Scruff! Flannel! Must share!

My tween crush Brad Renfro always wore a shirt like that in his Bop/Tiger Beat/etc magazines. So I had to have one too. He introduced me to The Ramones too. But not heroin. Sigh. Oh, I made myself sad.

This thread may or may not be lacking updates because Jake admitted he is allergic to cats. He's slightly redeeming himself to me in the classy way he speaks of Gerry Goffin. Now he just has to work on how he expresses himself about cats.

What You Need To Know About The New Carole King Musical aka Jake spews blasphemy about cats. It's not their fault he was born defective and didn't receive enough snuggles growing up. (I'm only 51.3% serious about this.)

Get? Get what??? An album? Oh yeah, Craig did that. And Jake did too. Beautiful: The Carole King Musical soundtrack is out.

Old news but pretty pictures: Photo Coverage: Jessie Mueller and the Company of BEAUTIFUL Celebrate Opening Night!
Another interview: THE FRIDAY SIX: Q&As with Your Favorite Broadway Stars- BEAUTIFUL's Jake Epstein

And Jake talks about leaving Degrassin in season 5. I could always sense his unhappiness.
Quote:
The decision to leave "Degrassi" was a bit nerve-wracking?
JE: Yeah, I mean… I was 19 at the time, and I was so unhappy, and I knew that I was too young to be that unhappy. I come from an academic family, [so] if you do something, you go to school for it. It was always encouraged to go to school. I never felt like I was leaving the film world behind. I needed to go and feel good about what I was doing and learn something and kind of come back to it on my own terms. Tons of people thought I was completely nuts, and I didn't know if I was just running away from it. I didn't know if it was the right decision or not, and I just really wanted… One of the things I love about theatre is how raw it is. There's no faking it… I really wanted to have a base in theatre, and that kind of opened up all these doors for me.

Whenever I watch this vid Jake as Spiderman makes a cameo appearance in my dreams. It is always very random, kind of goofy, and he is well, a bit useless...crime in a coffee shop? Superhero is playing in a park nearby after I barely escape.

Bummer he didn't get a Tony nom.

Quote:
Epstein, who portrays King’s first husband and greatest collaborator, Gerry Goffin, was passed over in the nominations, but displayed the vulnerability that made him a young star on Degrassi: The Next Generation in a scene he performed with Mueller, marking the moment when she first played the lyrics he had written to her melody for the song that became known as “Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow?”

And when King came on stage to join Mueller and the company for “I Feel the Earth Move,” Epstein was right there with them, a joyous part of the picture. “What a crazy night!!!” he texted the Star, soon after the moment was over.

Indeed. And a night for the stars, whether or not they took home trophies, to be proud of.
