Impossible to have a bad audition when you’re so ridiculously talented

[@juffurey]

don't forget adorkable

[@1LankyLady]

Actually....not impossible to have a bad audition....no matter how brilliant one is. She simply isn't living in the negative past. All actors have challenging absurd auditions. Best to let it go. Jimmy is a comedian & is using it to create comedy....clearly brilliant in his own right. Two wonderful entertainers.

[@kymkantaris7821]

Isn't she just amazing ❤❤❤

[@Amanda-ex6em]

exactly, when you got it, you got it

[@scottieapplseed]

When guests and hosts show appreciation for those that get very little if any light, it is one of the kindest gestures. Staff and understudies need that love too.

[@TheTradge]

She was phenomenal in Anything Goes last year, and I was lucky enough to snatch a second row seat at Music Man in the spring, what a cast, her and Hugh's chemistry is amazing, but my god the FREAKIN' ENSEMBLE in that show are truly incredible, especially all the kids, some serious talent on that stage all around!

[@leahmoore6820]

Anything Goes was in 2011.

[@islot40]

Sutton Foster is just the absolute best!

[@michellekeyser8085]

Saw her in young Frankenstein on pre broadway previews in Seattle. Mel brooks was sitting two seats from me. Total magic. This woman is incandescent when she is “on”.

[@j69confessional]

It was always a goal of mine to see her perform live. Finally saw her in The Music Man. She stole the show. Her voice, acting, dancing was breathtaking! 🥹

[@annefitz7346]

I don’t think she was as dazzling as I expected like she was in Anything goes which I’ve only seen on TV. Love her in You her & Bunheads Just saw her with the Boston Pops. Great show but needed a bigger finish

[@cashboymusic245]

I saw her and Hugh perform the Music man, a night I will never forget. Her voice is mesmerizing and will put you in a trance

[@LoveForLudwig]

If you have not read her book, please do! It was better than therapy in some ways for me. Absolutely amazing.

[@jaeves007]

It's a great listen too - she narrates it so beautifully.

[@heatherh4791]

Is it for people that don’t care for crocheting? I’d like to read it but I don’t like to chrochet.

[@LoveForLudwig]

@@heatherh4791 Crochet is just a hobby that helped her during difficult times. She does lots of crafts!

[@Camrynn.ol14]

She is the absolute best!! How can you not love her?!

[@Bekisutton]

Ugh I adore her so much 😻

[@bmyra]

Me too!

[@Amanda-ex6em]

I tried to see her in Anything Goes and I got her understudy and ever since then I've vowed to see her in every single show I can so I've seen her in Violet, The Music Man, Once Upon a Mattress, Sweeney Todd and in concert 3 times. When I saw her in The Music Man, she literally posted a video the next day saying she had tested positive for covid and I was like flop sweating that I almost got her understudy again! My new goal is to own an original crochet piece by Sutton haha.

[@loveinthematrix]

She has such nice energy Omggg!!

[@jerryjones7838]

Such a lovely lady.

[@rebeccasharp4056]

I love her laugh.It is so infectious!

[@intisaraamer532]

I loved Unbeakable song which was sung by Sutton Foster, please it should be on Spotify😢😢😢

[@camara1194]

THIS WOMAN IS JUST❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@AlanaClarkLovesRWRB]

I read Hooked last year! It was very good!!

[@crbohannon]

Dying to see her in something! Please be in a show in Sep 2024 when I'm in NYC!

[@ameliakay9646]

Were you able to see her in Sweeney Todd? She was amazing and I’m going to see her a second time!

[@jameslarosa2396]

I hope you got to see Once Upon a Mattress.

[@juancarlosbarrazayanez5279]

Que hermosa mujer y talentosa

[@drumbum3.142]

I've Always Fell (VERY) Hard for that Name.. 🎨🎨🎨 SUCH A LOVELY Talent..🎨🎤🎙🎨 🎼👏👏👏🎵🎭🎶💃🎶🎙

[@bizkitngravy4936]

Loved her in Younger. Her and Hilary Duff were great together

[@NaNa-pn7cp]

Hilary and Sutton in Younger.iconic

[@sallysmiles3214]

She’s so lovely!

[@bryanmartin5901]

This is the best thing I’ve seen on YT since 2005…

[@haro2830]

the first 2 minutes of this interview he didn’t let her speak

[@michaelw7980]

Exactly. He has ruined the Tonight Show

[@Lonely3rrior]

She is gorgeous ❤

[@melrox8809]

Sutton foster is such a lovely woman.

[@annefitz7346]

People, please check her out in the Tony award show. Anything Hoes & Thoroughly modern milly. Amazing. Those got me hooked on Sutton. Dazzling performer & performances ⭐️

[@reneekad]

There were things I posted on Facebook that came up later. My aunt with a pressure cooker, something about Michele and books, etc.

[@NoferTrunions]

I'm still sad about Bunheads

[@NitaMeToo]

I loved her as Fiona in Shrek the Musical

[@reneekad]

The lady at Ponce taught me how to knit.

[@reneekad]

When I wrote “Adam Dominici” in 2019 that one news guy tapped on a table. Why that matters idk.

[@Lazy_Sundae]

Right off the bat he just talks about himself instead of asking his guest questions 🤦‍♂

[@fredd8556]

Did Jimmy audition for the part Chris Fitzgerald ended up having?

[@AbiS1018]

I think so!

[@reneekad]

Smthg bad happened with that cartoon lady who said “YESSSS!” But I think it was altered. A lot of concerns like that where kids can’t question what they are perceiving.

[@reckoner1913]

In the first 99 seconds of this video the legend that is Sutton Foster says 28 words, and politely laughs a few times, whilst Jimmy tells his crappy story. About himself, obviously.

[@reneekad]

Something about Martha Stewart and cozies. Maybe an SNL reference.

[@janeoleary8454]

Where is her wedding ring. Just curious

[@bigred8432]

Maybe she doesn’t wear one? I mean??!!

[@janeoleary8454]

One third of the “interview” was Jimmy talking about him, so self centered

She's like an older Melissa Benoist.

[@veggigoddess]

I only know her from Flight of the Conchords. "She's so hot, she's luke a curry". Funny she was in a musical show, and never sang a single note 🤣

[@AbiS1018]

“She’s making me sexist” 😂😂

Coco broke up the flight of the conchords...

[@reneekad]

Smthg about a scary story and a lady who covered her slit throat with a necklace of scarf.

Ive never had a gf because once I had one and I bought us tickets to Fred Astaire and flowers and it all! and she said no we had to stay home and shes puttin on the grits thats why I cant do it again! :(
