Darren Criss performs "Teenage Dream" at The Grove LA

Darren Criss performs "Teenage Dream" at The Grove LA on November 22, 2010. This was before the interview he does for Extra. My camera ran out of space at the end. :(

[@starkidiva]

everyones just stood calmly, i would be dying

[@kywha1e_]

tybruns starkid I'm pretty sure everyone there is dying on the inside

[@hannahmorris7264]

Maybe bc its so somilar to the one in the break up

[@kywha1e_]

I don't understand what I feel when I watch Darren performing. Because it's a mix of being absolutely smitten and being envious. I basically want him and want to be him at the same time. He's the closest thing to an ideal human being I've ever known, yet I literally want to do everything I can to be as similar to him as possible. Is that weird? That's weird.

[@rako_5378]

1:53 😂😂 this little noise and the mouvement that comes with it

[@Acoontey]

1:51 "My heart stops *PING* when you look at me"

[@iiLoveJonasBrosOxo]

[@Reepicheep28]

I love watching his expressions as he sings. You can tell he's as in love with what he's singing, whatever he's singing and whatever he's playing, as much as we fangirls are in love with him and his singing and playing and amazingness...

[@cathcatou]

[@X0X0ELIZABETH22]

[@shamidkpzd]

The awkward moment when this is 10x better than the original. Seriously, I'd buy this version of the song if it was available on iTunes. I love how animated he is. He really gets into his performances not matter what the venue.

[@OlgaZhigunova]

Darren Criss is an amazing singer/actor/Blaine Anderson/Harry Potter

[@iShannonCR]

@toshikotsu The baby was clearly crying with joy at the sound of Darren's voice.

[@adryem873]

[@LPaige14]

@Dziyahh you're so right!

[@tonkslupin103103]

Yes.

[@hydroulicks]

the blonde is really pretty. Im not worried about her staring at his head. That little girl though... While he did part of your world she stuck her fingers in her ears. am i the only one who sees a problem with that...

[@shamidkpzd]

I so want this acoustic version on iTunes.

[@TheCraig243]

[@kirmitiskool2]

the blonde girl with the quiff behind him looks so much in love with him

[@EvidentSnail]

I think that baby is actually singing with Darren! Cute.

[@ussabrefencer07]

Okay, I have one question. How do those two blond girls behind him NOT reach up and touch his hair?!?! It's just so amazing!

[@OlgaZhigunova]

@cakemakerheheh123 his name is actually Blaine Anderson, but his school's glee club thing is called the warblers, so sometimes they use warbler :)

[@BunnyHanyou]

He better watch out. If I see him on the street, I might just. . .OMG

[@heyyy3210]

BROADWAY - Saturday the 21st. Applaud for Darren. DON'T SCREAM. Just clap. I know it'll be hard to resist, I mean it IS Darren we're talking about here, but it'll be beautiful and warranted and organic. It would be be great if he knew that people actually respected him for his work, instead of just the fact that he's ridiculously attractive :)

[@AvaGracey]

he's darren freakin' criss

[@lalalaabbs]

I actually cried..+jizzed..

[@iBleedTeal44]
