Alright, I am now convinced that Taron Egerton is a VERY handsome wizard and here’s why: 1. Sang Your Song to audition for RADA-has played Elton John himself and is good friends with him 2. Has mentioned several times that Rachel Weisz has been his childhood crush- just did an interview talking to Rachel Weisz. He manifested that shit and I just wanna know where he got his chakra crystals from and what Hogwarts house he’s in 😂😂😂😂

@beckyfleming4537 11 ай бұрын

He likely felt like he didn’t want to go there for a couple of reasons: 1. He’s told many of those stories repeatedly during many other interviews especially during Rocketman tour and 2. Not often he can have that kind of creative focused conversation with such a respected actress. I think he hit the notes just right.
