Constantine Maroulis Rules.Is.

I recently saw the totally awesome Rock of Ages on Broadway. I use the phrase “totally awesome” not only because it’s fitting but because the show takes place in the ’80s and the songs are all hair metal band covers. (REO Speedwagon, Styx, Whitesnake etc.) Anyway, Constantine Maroulis (below) is the show’s star and because he was so great in it, we interviewed him for the upcoming issue of Front Desk. (Link to come.) And it must be said, he completely rules. He ‘s a Brooklyn-born Jersey-ite who is funny, a huge Yankees fan and told us he modeled his singing voice after Jon Bon Jovi’s. If you’re in NYC or coming to visit, go see this show before he leaves in September! Bonus: Tons of celebrities are flocking to this. When I was there, so was Whoopi Goldberg. A woman trying to climb past her in the aisle tripped and fell face first right into Whoopi’s lap, which made me die laughing.
