Josh Groban has landed his first acting gig since leaving his Tony nominated role in The Great Comet on Broadway and he will be guest staring on The CW’s Crazy Ex Girlfriend. What he will be doing on the show, that more of you should be watching, we do not know because all Rachel Bloom, the show’s star and creator said this about his appearance on the show, “it’s a secret so don’t tell anyone.” !Too late the cat is out of the bag.
Meanwhile Grobs had this to say about his guest stint, “I had the best time shooting a cameo on Crazy Ex Girlfriend with the INSANELY NICE AND TALENTED @racheldoesstuff. This episode is a doozy. Can’t wait for you to see!”
We do not know which episode he will show his face on, but the musical comedy returns with all new episodes starting on October 13th. We also do not know if he will be singing on it, but I am wishing and hoping they give him a tune like Heavy Boobs or I Gave You a UTI. Those songs are classics and fun to listen to when you are driving with the windows down.
To all you Grobanites, who are not familiar with this quirky program, you can catch up on the first two seasons which are currently streaming on Netflix. It is so up Groban’s alley. If you like his sense of humor, then you will love Crazy Ex Girlfriend. Therefore, why are still reading this and not watching it on Netflix?
UPDATE: A rep for The CW told me, “He will play a mysterious and helpful stranger who will sing in the show.” At least we know he is singing!
