floating on a starlit ceiling
parterre mascot Izzy Anderson returns with yet another bash at “La donna e mobile.” Video impresario Wenarto obviously is working his connections like mad since he has managed to film this scene on the Act 2 set from the Met’s Tristan.
Unless… you don’t think maybe if Gary Lehman cancels, Izzy will go on opposite Debbie Voigt?


La Cieca, you placed Deb’s head on Birgit’s body!
This is actually MUCH improved since his previous efforts. And I LOVE the ballet interlude.
I don’t care how he sings; he just makes me horny.
The picture is clearer and he is shot from a closer angle, so we can now see clearly the nipple piercings. I miss the sarong but like the addition of the Burger King crown. Worried about the alcohol consumption and that totally unnecessary female dancing around him! (Get that trash outta there, he’s mine!!!). However, it is dramatically appropriate, sigh…
Vocally there are few off pitch moments and his top is sometimes better, sometimes worse… Italian is rather improved, dontcha think??? Loved hearing him speak at the end.
Why do I feel like that gentleman from the Times when I see dear Mr. Anderson? That said, I’m surprised by the lowered key. Could our Mr. Anderson be a baby bari-hunk?
The mind boggles…as the pulse races.
And if you enjoyed that, be sure to see his cameo turn as Octavian in the closing duet from Rosenkavalier:

Finally, a historically correct rendition. I always believed that the Duke needed nipple rings. Is there a tenor / haute-baritone role called ‘Prince Albert’ somewhere in the repertoire? Please?
In a bit of optical confusion, I first read your headline as “Floating on a Straight Ceiling,” Thought I’d gone to the wrong website…
As for Izzy’s Octavian, he unfortunately looks like a lousy kisser. Unless, of course, it’s because he’s kissing a GIRL!
You know, I could watch Mr Anderson sing all day.
I could sing Sophie to Mr. Anderson’s Oktavian *tomorrow* – it’s merely a question of tongue-kissing and fondling his muscles…
He is singing out of his ass… But I dont care. I wouldnt mind ruffing him up while he does it anyway. ALTHOUGH… if he IS singing out of his ass, then I wanna SEE the ASS!!!
Fabulous! Those nips are quite something – I could gather up his body anytime and take him to Valhall.
He has a gorgeous face. Needs to work on his abs and lay off the beer. Who cares how he sings? Singing like a pig hasn’t hurt Netrebko. And he’s better-looking!
The singing is more accurate this time (both in pitch and rhythm) and his Italian does seem better. But overall, I prefer him in a towel.
We should be careful about giving him too much publicity, though. Simon Cowell might snap him up for something like Il Divo and then we’d have to share him with the world. I wonder if he also has a guiche?
Your photo with Deb’s head imposed on Birgit’s bod and facing three tenors may be prophetic…I heard that the Met is toying with the idea of a 3-tenor TRISTAN…seriously!
I was wondering if Big Ben will be recovered for tonight.
Well it’s announced…Lehman tomorrow night and the dreaded TBA for next week…including the HD broadcast….
kashania – I assume you mean tomorrow night. I just looked at the Met’s web site, and the Tristan is… Gary Lehman.
Thank you, dnitzer, for the “Rosenkavalier” link. That may be my favorite YouTube clip ever. And dcrazmo, I have no idea what kind of erotic arts you are used to, but Izzy’s kissing sure looked fun to me. And of course the queen playing the Marschallin in the foreground is the absolute cherry.
I wonder how a fellow geek like Wernato manages to persuade so many yummy hunks and twinks to perform half-naked on his videos. If he can get them to sing and dance for him, who knows what else he may persuade them to do…
OMG! How low is low, and how low can you get? This an abomination in the third degree. Even as a joke it’s pathetic! Who’s next? Mike Bolton?
What a delightful enchanting young fellow. I think his career would be best advanced more quickly if he came to live with me for about ten years, special tuition included. I have a spare cupboard in the bedroom where he can rest in between lessons :0)
Ruxton: I feel that his career would benefit from some time in Europe kneeling at the feet of our great masters. I am always happy to lend a hand to a young artist of Mr Anderson’s obvious talents and so suggest that he uses Oxford as his base. It’s very handy for Heathrow and having time in the UK on his CV will ensure he gets a constant supply of minor roles in all the US houses.
Oh, and Mark, if he needs to work on his abs then I need to work on – well – everything!
I think Izzy is actually more of a Melot currently. Actually another Parterre Box poster boy is itching to sing his first staged Tristan and perhaps the Met should phone him…
Clue: Magic Earring Ken

Oops that Earring Magic Ken!
