Newsies received 8 Tony nominations yesterday and at least a few of its (cute) cast members broke the actor stereotype to wake up by 8:30 a.m. and watch the announcement.

Some of us may have made ourselves uncomfortable for wanting to hump a hologram after a reincarnated Tupac and his masterfully animated six pack debuted at Coachella.
