me and Karen Olivo!
Friday. 04 September 2009. New York City.
I met KAREN OLIVO after watching ‘West Side Story’. I told her how I came to see the show especially for her and how brilliant she is. Also told her how amazing she was in ‘In The Heights’. (Even though I was never able to see her as ‘Vanessa’ LIVE on stage, all the clips I’ve seen & the OBC album is enough to tell her how amazing she was in that role. haha)
What a woman! Like Lin-Manuel, she also needs to reprise her role for the Heights movie musical. I would be the happiest guy in the world!
P.S. Whenever I hear Rihanna’s verses on Jay-Z’s “Run This Town”, I cant help but sing Karen’s verses on “Run This Tour”. Fcukin love it!
I’ve been listening to the “In the Heights” musical soundtrack lately. I saw it for the first time last week, with a different cast, starring Corbin Bleu. I wish i had seen it with the originals, because their voices are so wonderful, especially Karen Olivo. So i decided to post a picture of Ms.Olivo and I at the stage door from West Side Story, she’s as nice as she is talented. Love her <3
