Mmkay, first order of business: Zac Efron.
I hated him just because everyone else loved him during the whole High School Musical craze... until I actually saw it and realized it wasn't nearly as bad as I thought. But I mostly liked Lucas Grabeel (Ryan) after seeing that, so even though I didn't think he was a douchebag anymore, I still didn't like him. But now... oh my. Hairspray was AMAZING. And he was fantastic as Link. I didn't really like Link when I saw it on Broadway, but Zac was greeeat. And hot. zomg. Now I see what everyone else has been talking about for months. I've been watching the video for "Ladies' Choice" like fifteen times a day since Wednesday, and I don't really see it stopping anytime soon... because he's awesome. And hot, did I mention hot? Because, yeah. Not to mention slightly empowering, because he chooses the fat girl in the end. Rock on.

Nice.
Next up, Darren.
He's not doing a real tour in the States! Ugh. He said he was, I wanted to see the Time Machine tour so bad... now he's just doing a round of club dates. Booooo, Darren. BUT! He's also doing a signing tour at random Borders stores, and he's going to NYC, and WE'RE GOING OMFG. And he's doing an acoustic set there. OOOMMMGGG.
Next, Clay.
HE'S JOINING THE BROADWAY CAST OF SPAMALOT HOLY SHITE. My mom says we can go because it's over my birthday and income tax. EEEEEEEEEEE. I SO hope he comes out (lol) to meet people afterwards. I may actually die.
One last thing.
Zac Efron.
Mmm.
