My massive crush on Jonathan Groff
I finally finished Mindhunter season two. It was emotional and complex and I have a lot to say about that later. But for now, JONATHAN GROFF!
I was introduced to him when I started Mindhunter, but it turns out that he was in Glee (Jesse St. James) and in Hamilton. He plays Kristoff and Sven in Frozen, and he's also been in a bunch of other Broadway productions. After I finished Mindhunter, I immediately went and watched a bunch of clips of Jesse St. James. He's besties with Lea Michele and Lin-Manuel Miranda, so basically he's a mega star and I had no idea. Most importantly for my purposes, he starred in a 2014 HBO show called Looking that has two seasons and a movie.
I immediately binged all of Looking season one and it's AMAZING! Very California Bay Area (where I'm from), a bit campy, very gay - I love it a lot even though it's basically a soap opera with a bunch of sex. It follows three gay best friends and their love lives (as well as their careers). This show makes me thirsty TM as hell, but also nostalgic for home.
He also was apart of a podcast musical in 2017 called 36 Questions, and I just downloaded it today.
I've fallen down a fandom spiral, that's for sure.
Jonathan and Holt are co-stars in Mindhunter, and they have such an interesting (and by interesting I mean sexy) dynamic:
This video is from 2012, and the lighting is terrible, but his pipes! There's so much joy in this song. I feel all the happy vibes from this performance.
Jonathan talks about his coming out story a little bit in this video, and then does a really beautiful serenade ♥
Anyway, my new goal in life is to see him in a broadway show someday.
