He's been my director, wonderful man. His organization and creativity is unmatched, having the ability to truly maximize individual strengths and minimize weakness. He can create some of the most amazing choreography with non-dancers that can easily rival professional productions with strong dancers.
I remember when I was visiting a friend in New York I saw Jacob Brent running down the street and into the theater. I guess he was late for rehearsal or something because he was hauling tail! LOL. I wanted to stop him to get an autograph but decided against it since he was obviously in a hurry.
Wow. This guy looks exactly like my cousin and has the same mannerisms. So, I can't think he's hot. That would be weird. He is the best Mistoffelees though.
I love him! If he wasn't gay, I would so marry him. :) I wish he was in more musicals though. He's too amazingly talented to be just in CATS! Although he's my favorite Mr.Mistoffelees ever!
@890rich WHAT? WHAT DO YOU MEAN THEY STOPPED TOURING???!!! NOOO PSHT ITS PROBABLY CUZ THEIR GOING ONTO BROADWAY...PSHAW DUH PSH YEA....AND JACOB BRENT SAID THAT HE THINKS THEY WILL COME BACK AND HE IS NEVER WRONG.... SOOOO NO NEED TO WORRY....GAHHHH!!!!
Who cares if he's gay? Gay men are often very sweet and gentle. Actually I like him for being gay, but why did I have to be born in HOLLAND of all countries?! XD I feel SO like moving to the US to meet Jake. I have to move to an English peaking coutnry anyway to improve my skills, so I'll subtly move to Jake's place.:P Where does he live anwyay?
And not long ago this phenomenal CAT Produced 7 Kittens Right out of A HA---T, And we all say Oh well, a Never was there ever, a CAT so CLEVER as MAGICAL MENTOR MISTOFFELEES, I just did a Tutorial to his Makeup.
I loved him in the film. I think the casting was amazing for that film. All the people in the film were not just great dancers, they all got these very expressive faces and they were entertaining and remained in character even when they were in the background. Jacob, of course, danced and acted them all into the ground.
I fell head over heels in love with this man when I was 8, only to find out a couple years later that he was gay. I cried for two hours, no joke. They get all the good ones.
Seriously when I was watching the dvd and adoring him and looking for bonus of him I never thought there'd be a day I'd find so many fans of his all of a sudden!
I'm am soooo glad that I am not the only one who has a crush on one of the cats in the video! I just watched it and I have a huge crush on Mr Mistopolis. :3
Right place right time my eye! You got talent coming out your ears! You deserve that part Mr.Brent❤ Also it should be illegal for one human to be this charming. Just saying lol!
Sweet summer child (born in the same year as my mom, a-hem). So innocent. So pure. Couldn't hurt a fly. Would die for immediately. Best magical cat ever -- no offence, Fireheart.
I distinctly remember seeing this on broadway in like 99-00 or something like that, was that him playing mistoffelees? Because the original actor passed away
see this guy says three times that misto is a teenager ok we get it, obviously he knows only so much about misto himself, and you have all this fans making up stuff like family lines and scenarios between misto and victoria that dont even exist, get over it ppl...
I'm going to New York City in the middle of October to see cats I'm so excited it's a late/early birthday present I have wanted to see cats on broadway ever since I was 3 years old when I first saw cats on video thats when I knew that I loved this musical not that I actually knew what musical theater was or is at that that time
Oh I love him in this! This was the second musical I ever saw on film, the first being Annie, and I instantly fell in love with the dancing like I'm not a dancer in the slightest and so I just loved how they could convey a story only through dancing and Mistoffelees was always my favourite character like to this day I can't name it but there's just something in little things he does like he's a drama queen lol but also just in the way that Jacob chose to play him xxx
i had a huge crush on him coz of cats as a kid - still rmb that i would watch the vcd over and over again after school. watching the interviews here on youtube has brought so much memory back.
@willowezralee hes not in skimbleshanks's number....I think it's because he has to get ready for his big number, changing, new make up, coming down from the sky, etc.
mr. misto issss my favorite cat! i used watch the cat musical every day on video cassset. when i was little :] this is the first time ive seen him without his costume on
And What a Fantastic Video it is Too, but It's Not Definitive, Because it cut a Huge Chunk out of Mungojerrie & Rumleteazer, 1 What's a Jellicle Cat, and Doesn't Have Growltiger's Last Stand, The Return of Grizabella, or Me, But it's Still good. Sorry I'm a Tough Reviewer.
Well I don't get vibes from every member of the cast. There are plenty of men in tights who dance ballet in cat costumes in Cats who I'm fairly sure are straight. It's his voice, the way he presents himself, and his word choice that told me for sure
Well, if you think about it, how many straight guys do you know who would dress up in spandex cat costumes and sing and dance and act like a cat? That's what I asked myself. :3 At least for this one.
I just love looking at him. . . *sighs* once u hear his voice you just wanna SCREAM!! I luvv JACOB BRENT!!! SUCH A TALENTED PERSON!! I can't believe i got to see him!! *gasps* I wish i could replay that sudden moment when he looked at me. . . *sighs*^-^
OMG....HE'S AMERICAN?!?! When I saw the movie, I just assumed he was, I dunno, British. *shrugs* Not that it matters, of course. He's still fricking hot and an amazing dancer. And I personally don't care if he is gay. I have a lot of gay crushes, honestly.
