Nicole Scherzinger and Jonathan Groff Bond Over NSFW Banter, Performing Sick on Broadway and ‘Patti F—ing LuPone’


Nicole Scherzinger and Jonathan Groff, the stars of 'Sunset Blvd.' and 'Just in Time,' discuss performing sick and their love of Patti LuPone.

This season, she’s dazzling audiences with her Broadway debut as one of musical theater’s most iconic divas, Norma Desmond, in “Sunset Blvd.” She won an Olivier Award for the show’s West End run. Groff, a Broadway favorite who earned his first Tony last year for “Merrily We Roll Along,” is crooning his way through Bobby Darin’s catalog in “Just in Time,” a new musical about the 1950s singer’s life and career. Their offstage personas couldn’t be more different, but they form an instant connection, giggling over their shared tendency to use NSFW language to describe their passion for being onstage, as well as their love for musical theater.
