Common
They cut to Common A LOT last night and WHY WOULDN'T THEY LOOK AT THIS MAN. Is his jacket too small? I DON'T CARE. TAKE IT OFF.
Josh Groban
I love Groban madly. Is his suit a little bit?
Josh Segarra
He plays Mr Gloria Estefan in On Your Feet!, the musical about Gloria (which I haven't seen, but which always feels to me like something that is going to do AMAZINGLY WELL in Vegas). I like his tie/pocket square combo.
Questlove
I ALWAYS have nothing be love for Questlove.
Bobby Cannavale and Rose Bryne
I sort of wish her dress would commit to one length or another, but the sequins are delightful.
Brandon Victor Dixon
BVD was nominated for Shuffle Along, which looked GREAT from the bits they performed last night, and his suit is super. He might be my best dressed man. (The night Shuffle Along took over the Tonys Snapchat was also GREAT. Adrienne Warren did most of it, and she was fantastically charming.)
Zachary Levi
The erstwhile Chuck ALWAYS wears something quirky, which I appreciate.
David Furr
David Furr was nominated for Featured Actor for Noises Off, a play beloved by high school drama departments all around the world -- which I can say without shame because I was the co-president of my high school drama society. He looks VERY handsome, although I feel like his pocket square is extra huge?
Savion Glover
I assume this is Glover's sweet child? They both look great. Apparently, he is the choreographer for Shuffle Along, which explains why I looked up at the TV during that performance and said, "THIS TAP-DANCING IS AMAZING."
Daniel Dae Kim
Speaking of amazing: The enduring power of DDK's cheekbones.
Michael Shannon
I think Shannon is a great actor, and he's also the one person who didn't seem particularly amused by being reminded that he had been on Law & Order, which, for some reason, I found MORE amusing than if he had been. (EVERYONE has been on L&O!)
Aaron Tveit
"Can't believe Corden didn't have me do any of the Les Mis bits in Carpool Karaoke."
James Corden and Julia Carey
Speaking of: They both look lovely, and I thought he did a very good job. He has much, much less of the smugness that NPH eventually got, and the full-body enthusiasm that serves him so well for Carpool Karaoke worked beautifully for the Tonys -- which are slightly corny, albeit in a wonderful way that I love.
Neil Patrick Harris, David Burtka
Speaking of, thanks to my -- inadvertent -- shot selection, they BOTH look sort of smug here. (But handsome.)
Liza Marshall, Mark Strong
Solid outing, you two. Very solid indeed.
Andrew Rannells
I heart you, Rannells.
Alex Brightman
Alex Brightman plays the Jack Black part in School of Rock and he was very dynamic in their performance (but also somewhat Jack Blackian). He was nominated for Best Actor in a Musical and surely knew he had no chance, but in a way, maybe that was relaxing. (Also, Andrew Lloyd Webber clearly LOVES to hire a Brightman.)
Jeff Daniels
Literally just almost titled this slide, "Jeff Bridges." Sorry, Jeffs.
Sean Hayes
They look totally nice and are dressed EXACTLY ALIKE. (That's Sean's husband Scott Icenogle.)
James Earl Jones
For a glorious moment, I thought JEJ was holding a cocktail, like a boss.
Blair Underwood
SO HANDSOME, even if this shot makes him look like he can't put his arms down.
Jesse Tyler Ferguson
I RARELY like a non-white shirt with a tux, but this is really, really sharp.
Justin Guarini
And then Justin Guarini showed up! And I was legit delighted to see him.
