I am happy for the success that Constantine has gotten thus far. It is quite an accomplishment to get the Lead Actor nomination. Good for him! He proved that an Idol landing a job on Broadway can be respected by the industry and acknowledged for their work. Simon was so wrong the “Broadway” label being bad.

Oh, wait a minute, one of those theater guys was runner-up for Season 8. Imagine that.

Constantine rocked the house last night. It is extremely hard to get a Broadway lead and he has had two. His talent is there. Personally, he may be as annoying as hell, I don’t know. But talent wins out.

Im definitely no Constantine fan but I do like his hair. I like long hair on guys if its clean and pretty. I liked Bo’s hair and Aces. Think it ruined Ace’s looks when he cut his off. Constantine always creeped out mugging the camera. I say WTG for the nom though, great accomplishment. I agree he is desparate for fame and uses every avenue to promote himself, which I guess you have to do to make it. He was even at Joan River’s party when she was on Apprentice this year. Am I the only one who notices Constantine has either lost a lot of weight or had some surgery because his double chin or whatever is gone??? That excess flab he had under his chin in his Idol days made him look “weak chinned” to me. lol

I could see him becoming huge in a part where he plays a bingo-number announcerÃƒ ¢Ã¢â€š ¬ ¦Ãƒ ¢Ã¢â€š ¬ ¦.

Bwah! Hilarious!

Constantine is so greasy, I feel like I need a shower just looking at him.

Connie has a sleaze about him that is offputting, but he’s also mad talented. I do feel proud of him, yes I do. He lit up the tv for me when he was on Idol, even if there’s things about him I don’t like.

I love the Billy Elliot movie, love it to death, wish I could see the play. I’m thrilled it won, thrilled for Elton John too.

I watched half the show, can’t wait to watch the rest tonight. NPH was okay, but a bit dull. I’d rather someone theatrical like Hugh Jackman, who put on a real show when he hosted.

That’s his mom Constance standing next to him. She was his date to the awards show. He also took his brother, his brother’s wife and his sister.

I thought Constantine and the cast of Rock of Ages totally ROCKED the Tonys like never before. I’ve watched the Tonys for more years than I’m willing to admit and I thought they were fantastic.

The performance didn’t have the traditional Broadway feel about it, which made it really stand out from the rest of the performances. I liked it a lot.

Loved NPH. I missed Constantine during the broadcast, but kudos to him for getting that Tony nod. These type of Broadway spectacles suit him.

Watched it last night. Constantine sounded really good and he looked thrilled to be performing the number on national TV.

The performers who did not sound good last night? The Mamma Mia trio. Yikes. Off key.

NPH rules.

Constantine? Not so much.

If he had won the Tony, AI probably would have invited him back finally (as they did with Jennifer Hudson after the Oscar, who should have told them to kiss her ass).

Watched the show. Still kind of surprised he was nominated, though it’s not like hundreds of shows open every year. He sounded good, though. I’ll give him that. I’ve never been a fan of his. Still am not. This show doesn’t look like anything I’d want to see. I notice NPH cracked a joke about him at the beginning. I doubt this will do anything to really raise his cache. I mean, what else would they cast him in?

Good show overall, though. Despite some hellacious sound problems throughout the show.
