After a successful run on Broadway, Jude Law wrapped up his last show as Hamlet last night. He took his time and met with the masses of screaming fans that waited for him outside the Broadhurst theater on 44th Street.
Fans got to take pictures and chat up the hunky Brit as he signed autographs for others. Law brought his rendition of Hamlet to New York after his performance garnered so much attention while in London’s West End.
I’ve even heard Jude could earn a Tony Nomination for his performance in the William Shakespeare play. I’m so sad I missed it while in New York!

He owns his own record label. He started his own clothing line. He raps. He produces. He mentors and develops young, talented artists. And oh by the way, add Broadway producer to the list. Recently, the multi-faceted mogul, Jay-Z, has joined the likes of Will and Jada Pinkett Smith as a part of some quality musical entertainment in the Broadway Production of “Fela!,” which is the celebration of the life and work of a truly great human being, the late Nigerian composer, performer, activist Fela Anikulapo Kuti.
Being inspired by his music, as well as the life of Kuti, Jay said this job as producer was one that he could not pass up. In an interview with MTV news, he also had this to say.
“It’s an inspiration, about the power of music. Here’s a guy that’s on the other side of the world who was influenced by James Brown, who takes this thing and makes his own sort of genre of music. I just think it’s fascinating.”
The musical portrays the amazing artistry that was pioneered by the innovator of Afrobeat, including his journey with his music and also his political activism. “Fela!” was written by Jim Lewis and Bill T. Jones, who also had his hand in the choreography. Kuti’s original pieces were performed by members of the Brooklyn Afrobeat orchestra Antibalas.

Antonio Banderas was in his native Spain to cheer on Fernando Verdasco during his match against German tennis player Philipp Kohlschreiber in Marbella, Spain yesterday. Banderas must have brought Spain luck, all three players beat out Germany in these quarter final game.
Next up for Antonio, Broadway! He returns to the stage for a musical adaptation of the classic film Zorba the Greek. He will play the lead role in the stage adaptation of the 1964 film based on a book by Nikos Kazantzakis.
“I want to go back to theatre because it is my main source, I’m more a theatre actor than a film actor,” Banderas said.
Broadway is soon becoming the place to find all your favorite Hollywood actors including Hugh Jackman, Daniel Craig, and Jude Law.

Those of you who read Accidental Sexiness on a daily basis know I love Keanu Reeves. I have to say though, I think he was looking sloppy at the Broadway premiere of Hair last night! Though its kinda appropriate with a show entitled Hair but maybe he should tidy himself up a bit! Maybe I’ve grown tired of that hat?
He was sweet though to stop and take photographs with some fans and sign autographs. I won’t lie, if I met him looking just like this I’d be just as happy!
