Pitch Perfect is currently the number one movie on Netflix, more than a decade after it was originally released in theaters, and all eyes are on the beloved cast members.

The movie musical turned Anna Kendrick into a huge star and rose the profiles of co-stars like Rebel Wilson, Anna Camp, and Brittany Snow.

Following the release of Pitch Perfect in 2012, sequels were released in 2015 and 2017. Now, Peacock is airing the spinoff series Pitch Perfect: Bumper in Berlin with Adam Devine reprising his role as Bumper.

We’ve gathered up the stars of Pitch Perfect, and ranked them from lowest to highest estimated net worth. You might be surprised who came out on top!

The biggest stars currently on Broadway were all at the 2023 Met Gala!

Lea Michele, Ben Platt, Alex Newell, Josh Groban, and Jodie Comer were just some of the stars who walked the red carpet for fashion’s biggest night on Monday evening (May 1) at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City.

Broadway shows are typically dark on Monday nights, which makes it possible for the performers to attend the event as it’s their one day off during the week. Did you know that Broadway shows are performed eight times a week?!

It’s the first Monday in May, and you know what that means…the 2023 Met Gala is tonight!

However, there are several celebrities who did not enjoy their time at the event, and they explained their reasons why. Some went as far as to proclaim they’ll never be back again (even though some did return to the annual event years later).

In addition, quite a few famous names have slammed the event and we can’t imagine we’ll see them on the red carpet again at the ball any time soon. Two have even been banned.

Ben Platt and Micaela Diamond are back on Broadway and getting glowing reviews for their work in the revival of Parade.

The musical celebrated its official opening night on Thursday night (March 16) at the Jacobs Theatre in New York City.

Among the celebs in attendance for the event were Shazam 2‘s Rachel Zegler, Tony winner LaChanze, and Vogue editor-in-chief Anna Wintour. New York State Governor Kathy Hochul was also there and visited with the cast backstage after the show.

Parade tells the story of Leo and Lucille Frank, a newlywed Jewish couple struggling to make a life in the old red hills of Georgia. When Leo is accused of an unspeakable crime, it propels them into an unimaginable test of faith, humanity, justice, and devotion.

Variety notes that Ben is giving a “stunning performance” and that Micaela is “terrific.” They wrote, “The couple’s deepening relationship gives heart to a show whose narrative is relentlessly chilly. Their second act duets — ‘This Is Not Over Yet’ and ‘All the Wasted Time’ — make the production soar and ground it in humans terms.”

The New York Times singled out Micaela‘s star-making performance as she is the one “you watch most closely and who breaks your heart. With no affectation whatsoever, and a voice directly wired to her emotions, she makes Lucille our way into a story we might rather turn away from.”

The show is on Broadway now through August 6. Get your tickets now!

Ben Platt is addressing the situation that occurred during the first preview performance of the Broadway revival of Parade.

On Tuesday night (February 21), anti-Semitic protestors gathered outside of the Bernard B. Jacobs Theatre in New York City.

“You want the truth about who you’re going to see tonight? You’re paying $300 to go f–king worship a pedophile, you might as well know what you’re talking about,” one protestor yelled, as seen in a video shared on Twitter.

Another is heard saying, “Romanticizing pedophiles, wow, Leo Frank,” referring to the musical’s main character, who is played by Ben, 29.

After the show, Ben took to social media to address the situation.
