The Moment is Me (Live) (feat. Vella Lovell and David Hull) - The Crazy Ex-Girlfriend Concert

My favorite story is that Vella found out it was a musical show after her first audition and so this was pretty much her original reaction when she was told she would be singing in the show lol. She is the best!

Headcanon: David went off script just to mess with her and try to make her break character and laugh, as a prank, and she loved it.

[@erin_3569]

@@edwardqueen5791 is it a headcanon ? Her laugh doesn't feel scripted, and the face she's making after this is totally her trying not to burst into laughs

[@boojingleful]

This was probably my favourite part of the whole concert - I'm impressed Vella managed to keep a straight face for as long as she did!

[@themripley]

Oh man. Coming back to watch this and the pianist that starts playing causing her to say "Oh ok, Adam" is Adam Schlesinger who co-wrote the Crazy-Ex Girlfriend songs and passed away from Covid. RIP you talented man.

[@joelavrunin347]

I clocked that throwaway line which is now so melancholy. Instantly thought of this gem from Adam: "You want things to be wrapped up neatly The way that stories do You're looking for answers But answers aren't looking for you Because life is a gradual series of revelations That occur over a period of time It's not some carefully crafted story It's a mess, and we're all gonna die If you saw a movie that was like real life You'd be like, "What the hell was that movie about? It was really all over the place." Life doesn't make narrative sense"

[@janedoex1398]

If she hadn't said it ......but now 😭 Edit and I have no streaming services, due to being used to poor sleeping patterns and extreme nightmares I saw the show maybe 2 years after the US or anyone with a VPN did - which I couldn't afford. Heck I couldn't even afford my meds and a brain tumor ( mostly benign) for 6 years and I am NOT IN THE US.

[@matthewsmith6057]

Best part is the look he gives at 1:16. She was clearly not expecting that.

[@SweenyTodd98]

I love that most of this is David trying to get Vella to break. Almost funnier when you know that David Hull had to perform her parts in "Girl Squad" and "Let's Generalize About Men" in other live shows because Vella wasn't available.

[@micaellalanders9027]

it takes SO much control as a dancer to be able to take the choreography and make it THIS funny AND to dance under yourself. he didn't block her once and he was literally in her spotlight nearly the whole time. you can tell his extensive training paid off lol. We
