curious george (BLAGDEN)

It's been *counts fingers* four months since Les Miserables was released in UK cinemas, and ever since I first saw the boys of the barricade singing their hearts out about the failed revolution, I've been curious to discover more about the people behind the characters, and while I've already made a weak attempt at trying to explain my love of Aaron Tveit, I think my fascination with George Blagden is more explicit.
First of all, observe the following video. There are a few videos on Youtube of Blagden singing songs by a variety of acts such as Ed Sheeran and Thom Yorke, however his most recent upload is this beautiful cover of Hallelujah (made famous by Jeff Buckley) :



Following his success in Les Miserables, he'll be hitting the big screens again later this year in The Philosophers, alongside Bonnie Wright, Jacob Artiste and Freddie Stroma, as well as making his television debut in the well-received American historical drama Vikings which is available on LoveFilm from Friday in the UK !

With his humble demeanour, breathtaking voice and impressive history (he was part of National Youth Theatre and attended Guildhall School of Music and Drama!) he's bound to go far - just remember that you heard it here first!)

If you're still not convinced of his immense talent, here's his cover of Ed Sheeran's 'This'
