Michael Feinstein

What’s the story on him? Any dirt or gossip on this aging crooner? I know he’s friends with Liza, Mitzi, Kristin Chenoweth, and the likes. Anyone ever paid to hear him perform? And was it worth it?

I looked at that photo and thought, "My, k.d. lang has certainly slimmed down." Then I realized it is Feinstein.

Behold, the wonders of fillers and Botox!

I went to iTunes and listened to some of his stuff....it’s enjoyable enough but didn’t knock my socks off.

She’s got a couple layers of makeup on in that photo

Very old photo.

Bexley's finest. Blew a friend of mine when he was underage (the friend was, I mean).

He has a very controlling husband.

Seems like there’s a plethora of hidden personal issues with him. I can’t imagine how bad or low it gets with him, but I would imagine under-age boys, Crystal (Tina), gallons of vodka, poppers, and an extensive BDSM basement man-cave with slings and all.

We may not know the details of what goes on in his dungeon, but we do know all about his snacking habits.

His favorite snack is fruit. When he gets tired of that he eats dried fruit, because it’s a little sweeter. Vegan chocolate is very satisfying. Sometimes, when he wants something heartier, he eats a little bit of whole-grain cereal. He likes raw oatmeal sweetened with dates. He’s also discovered chia pudding, which satisfies his sweet tooth and is incredibly healthy.

He LOVES Jazzy’s balls because the dates, raisins, and coconut “are like different keys in a chord.”

In the 80s. Not what I’d consider “hot” but definitely handsome.

I remember he was big in the late 80's. I bought a few of his standards albums.

No one know who the hell he is any more.

I remember, when he was in the closet, he made some comment of a gay chorus wanted to sing some of Rodgers and Hammerstein's music and wanted to change the lyrics to reflect a gay relationship. He laughed it off with a "Can you even imagine that?"

Many years ago, my boyfriend was going to a party in the same building Feinstein lived.

They got into the elevator together. Feinstein moved towards my bf, sniffed him, and said, "Yummy!"

r6- The guy in the Beatles shirt is Broadway actor Cheyenne Jackson.

Eww

Looks like Alicia Silverstone in that picture too.

That Cheyenne is hot! Is he straight?

The botox is overused

by Anonymousreply 21November 1, 2019 8:16 PM

Poor thing. Once he lets the Botox, fillers, and hair dye go, he will look like the rest of us.

by Anonymousreply 22November 1, 2019 8:17 PM

R17 Cheyenne is not only married to a man, he's divorced from another man. Definitely gay.

I have seen him a few times. He's the last in the line of what I call "cafe pianists/singers," (Bobby Short was next to last). He's very talented and provides lots of interesting tidbits about American Songbook composers between songs (many of whom he got to know before they died). I believe he sold his townhouse in the UES and has moved his vast music collection to Carmel, indiana (why there, I don't know).

I was there the moment opera legend Leontyne Price first met Bobby Short.

Did he then throw his caftan over his head?

I actually met him at a gay hotel pool in a Guerneville, California. It was “Sunday Funday” and we were all drinking mimosas and cocktails and toward the end of the afternoon he got up on a table and sang “Somewhere Over the Rainbow.” I was mid-thirties and still had a tight body. His hands were all over me, but I didn’t let him blow me, which he had asked if me by whispering in my ear. The next morning I saw him at breakfast and he hugged me and left the hotel.

He's the music director of some theater or something in flyover land...

Sad ending to a mediocre musical career.

Miss Girl got $15 million for her townhouse on East 63rd, so am guessing is set for life.

I always get him confused with Harvey Fierstein, LOL!

by Anonymousreply 31November 1, 2019 10:16 PM

Saw him perform twice, once with Liza and once with Christine Ebersole. Obviously talented and has a vast amount of knowledge regarding American Songbook/classic songs but as a performer, he’s nothing extraordinary, and you could feel the audience wanting him to just let the divas sing more songs instead of doing solo turns.
