Derek Chester, jacked muscled opera hunk

Is he dead? That Twitter hasn't been updated in 2 years

A Berkeley pal alerted me to this hunk after seeing this show:

[quote] I'd like to hit a few of his high notes.

You saucy minx!

Nobody wants to see a "jacked, muscled opera hunk."

He looks completely out of place.

He belongs in a porn video, not on an opera stage.

Yes, R4, because all male operas singers should be fat old men.

Look what happened to him

He's not an opera singer.

He's a trash box whore.

With his man, Walker

Dog dads

According to his personal Facebook, he's an Associate Professor at the University of Northern Colorado

He's an associate whore of whoredom at W.H.O.R.E. University.

Friend here, *raises hand

Any questions?

R4 Yes, it is out of place.

Handel's music transport us to a place of ethereal contemplation. But this man's body bursting at the seams reeks of try-hardism, sweat and the mindlessness of a Clydesdale house suitable for carting bricks.

I think you all know what I think of his body without my having to tell you...

He’s got a lot of instagramming done

R7, no reason that you can’t be both, dearie

"Derek Chester" sounds like a porn name.

R14, I didn't make him for YOU!

R17, he jokes about it.

Does all that excess muscle improve his diaphragm?

for R20:

No, but it certainly tightens his rectum.

Diaphragm

I’ve never heard anyone refer to an opera dude as a “hunk.” Oxymoron

That, R24, is because you are ignorant of the genre's modern changes. You've got a bit too much moron, and perhaps too much Oxy as well.

He looks like he has very low self-esteem.

R24, you’re either ancient, stupid or live under a rock. There is a whole website devoted to “barihunks”. And as someone in the business, the better the singer looks without his shirt on, the MUCH more likely he’ll be hired for the big gigs.

I look at Barihunks occasionally. There hasn't been a full nude singer for about 5 years now.

I'm sure it's a dog-eat-dog profession but I also think it's an axiom that the desperate singers display more and the quality singers display less.

Another cliche try to hard gay.

Try to hard gay what?

Looks like a hot couple to me. The jealousy from the out of shape, ugly bitches on this thread is thick as tar.

[quote]I’ve never heard anyone refer to an opera dude as a “hunk.”

I've never heard anyone refer to an "opera dude." Period.

I went to YouTube to listen to him sing. Awful. He should join a choir and call it a day. He doesn't have the voice or talent to be in a lead role or perform as a soloist, unless he took his shirt off while singing.

He’s doing leads all over the place, so either he’s being hired based on his looks, or your full of shit

Your full of shit what?

Why are so many functionally illiterate douches trying to attempt erudite comments about opera?

Ooopsie

He has nothing on Hayden.

He sounds like a countertenor at R2. I would have guessed bass from the looks of him. They tend to be more masculine. (I'm a basso profundo myself.)

Madam Buttaflyface.

He's got a good set of pipes

R37, I bet your musclebound freak can't sing a note on-key.

Yes, that musclebound freak probably can't even speak properly. But he is true to his calling.

There's the proverb 'let the cobbler stick to his last' meaning one should do the work at which one is an expert and not try to do the work of others. Singers should sing and not behave like whores.

BTW R41 That's a lot of vibrato in that Mozart

Does r37 know the words to "My Dick's Bigger than Your Dick"?

R37/R43, you're being snide and judgemental. You're stupidly presuming that opera singers shouldn't work out? They should all be fat? Idiot. Showing off his abs does not a whore make, queen.

Also, inserting your muscle WHORE into this thread proves your rudeness and complete ignorance of the thread's focus, which is not about your muscle WHORE.

Back on track with Derek!

^ What does that dagger mean?

From this article and his Facebook, Derek Chester has only recently come out of the closet. From the Facebook page, it looks as if he and his ex-wife get along. That's good for his kids, his ex, for him, and for his relationship with his lover.

He's hot!

[quote]...or your full of shit.

Oh, dear!

[quote]...or your full of shit.

Oh, dear!

R47, the dagger is just make-up for his role as Mack the Knife in a production of 'Three Penny Opera.'

I'm glad to hear it, R51.

Nothing says desperation more than a Middle-Aged man painting himself.
