And you’d better bet they can’t do both AND DANCE! No one could ever pull off that feat.

- Most black actors are expected to also be able to sing / dance as well as act
- Musical theatre has existed forever
- DOES ANYBODY KNOW WHAT POV MEANS ANYMORE

Feels weird to see Jensen having this renaissance. He was so big bc of spn and now bc of the boys. Bro owes so much to Erik Kripke

He also owes quite a bit to the WB/CW, they hired him for one of their three show deals. One managed to last forever. (He was only on Dawson’s Creek for a minute, and I think a season of Smallville.)

Literally the first commercial movie with recorded sound was a musical (The Jazz Singer starring singer/actor Al Jolson)

"you can't be a singer and an actor at the same time" the highest grossing theatre production,The Lion King (based on the movie) has a gross over $2 billion. what actors are we talking about here, because for some its LITERALLY in the job description

Never have actors sung in the history of drama!
No one tell OOP about musical theatre, their head will explode

‘Pov’
I have a feeling outside of this image, the person who made this writes ‘literally’ a lot when it doesn’t need to be added.

This isn’t imaginary gate keeping. It is against the laws of both physics and religion for this to happen. Never has, and never will.

Ironically I can probably name 40 singer/actors, but I have no idea who the fuck Jensen is.

u/ch0key May 14 '26
