Musical theatre is, for sure, my first love.
— Jordan Fisher
There are over 400 parks in all 50 states that represent our country and that are enriched with stories that tell about how our country became what it is today. There is a lot of history frozen in these places.
I'd love to one day win an Oscar just as much as one day I'd like to win a Grammy.
I get a lot of my inspiration from the Jackson 5 and Luther Vandross.
As a species, I think if we could be half as good as dogs, I think the world would be a much better place.
In the '90s, I was the only kid around that looked like me.
I hated history in school.
I'm a huge NBA fan and have been for a really long time.
When I get the opportunity to do what I love while also taking a stance on things I believe in, it's a very beautiful thing.
Ultimately, I have one life, and you always regret the things you don't do.
I've always, always loved dancing.
For whatever reason, I love 'The Schuyler Sisters!'
My life is such that I can delegate with love.
Ballroom is its own entity, its own sport. And I have the most respect for what the pros do.
I love Black History Month and celebrating my ancestral roots, but not just my blackness, which is so beautiful. But my Tahitian and my Italian - everything that makes me, me.
My 'Collaboration Wish List' is a mile long.
I've always been a huge, huge gamer in general, and I definitely grew up with all Nintendo products, and the Super Mario franchise has been a franchise that has shaped culture.
I encourage everybody to hop on Google and type in 'national park' in whatever state they live in and see the beauty that lies in their own backyard. It's that simple.
I'm an artist through and through.
I love to perform. I love live shows.
Family is family. I grew up in a household where all the four-legged animals were as important as the two-legged animals.
I am adopted, and I am so grateful for my story, and that's what makes me who I am.
I grew up dreaming of being on Broadway and being able to do that - and 'Hamilton' - was awesome, and it was the hardest thing for the first few weeks, and then it was the easiest thing.
I was a science guy in school, numbers and science and formula: what made things work and how to bring them forward - not what happened.
It is very important to have deep friendships of the opposite sex to learn so much about yourself and what you need as a human.
Being a part of 'Hamilton' is remarkably special. It's a very powerful show that has spectacular emotional and political relevance.
I'm a very community-oriented person.
I'm a massive fan of Troye Sivan, Ariana Grande, and Justin Timberlake.
I'm normally based in L.A.
I've got great family.
I've worked at a Game Stop and had my service turned down before because of the color of my skin. And it's a shame.
Every great thing has to come to an end at some point. It's the way that it goes.
I love people, which might be a little rare for artists. I don't know if a lot of artists like people, but I do. I love love.
There are only a couple characters and people in the world where, in history, where you can go anywhere in the world and say that character or person, that name, that song, and everyone knows what it is. Mickey Mouse is one, Disney, in general. In terms of gaming, Super Mario, he's everywhere.
Coming out of 'Hamilton,' my patriotic spirit and love for my country is renewed. I think that's the case for a lot of people. It instills a newly revitalized spirit in terms of learning about the formation of our country.
My upbringing in Birmingham gave me a sense of reality. I could not pick another city I would rather have grown up in. Growing up around really good, solid, godly people, it helped me to find those kind of great people in L.A., too, which can be hard for some people.
At the end of the day, I want to do film, and I want to do TV, but I grew up on stage, and I love music.
I grew up saying that I love humans, but I love dogs much, much more.
'Rent' resonates with people across generations because it's really great art.
Being able to invest in my community and invest in areas that people might not really know about and monuments that people might not know about in their own backyard is a great opportunity.
No one really sees the hours of work you put into that moment that finally happens on television or in the theater; they just kind of see the result.
Being on 'Grease: Live' was a massive mile marker. It ultimately led me to 'Hamilton.'
When I was 13, I moved to Los Angeles to pursue television and film roles. I booked shows like 'The Secret Life of the American Teenager,' 'Liv and Maddie,' and 'Teen Wolf.'
I was gymnast for a long time, so that helped with understanding my body.
I'm not one to get too starstruck.
Lin-Manuel Miranda is a musical icon, and being part of any show of his is an honor.
I've got great friends.
I'm mixed, and I'm proud of that.
I started playing on my grandmother's organ at a really young age. I learned 'Chopsticks' and that kind of thing, but I didn't really start picking it up and start taking it super seriously until I was probably about 13, 14.
This is all I wanna do; I want to entertain. I want to make music. I want do film.
