New Obsession: Glittery French Boys
So, yesterday I discovered Mozart: L'Opera Rock. Imagine the movie Amadeus (which, if you don't know what that is, is a movie based on the rumored rivalry between Salieri and Mozart), except musical, glittery and French, and with a lot more gayness between Salieri and Mozart.
This is Mikelangelo LoConte, otherwise known as Mikele. He is adorable and also Italian. He played Mozart.
This is Florent Mothe, otherwise known as Flo or Flow. He is gorgeous and French. He played Salieri.
Together they got up in to each others' personal bubbles, clutched each other, hugged a lot, smiled way more than normal while looking at each other, and eyefucked while singing. Just so you understand the sheer shippiness of this musical: there is a pretty sad love duet at the end, and it is between Mozart and Salieri, rather than Mozart and his /wife/, who just stands in the shadows crying. This is the official music video of their epic love duet Vivre à en crever (tr: Live Until You Die From It) from the end (the actual musical doesn't really look like this):

And then here is them on a French talk show, praising each other and looking way too happy about staring into each other's eyes as they sing:

The two songs they sing here are both from the musical. The first song is Tatoue-moi (tr: Tattoo Me), which conveys lustful desires and also talks about finding strength in one's quirks. The second song is L'Assassymphonie, which essentially means "the murder symphony" and is Salieri's big emo solo about his bitterness toward Mozart. (The level of happiness these two have in this video is not appropriate for either of these songs.)
Sparkly pretty ambiguously gay French boys aside, this musical also has ridiculously addicting music.
