Anyone who has spoken to me in the past year can tell you that I am a dedicated Hamilton fan who adores Lin-Manuel Miranda. Lin has so many amazing qualities, and he deserves all the happiness and fame that Hamilton has brought to him. Here are 5 reasons why Lin is an incredible man who deserves to be loved!
1) #Ham4Ham Shows
Lin understands that the ticket prices to see Hamilton are high and the chances of getting a ticket are low. Therefore, every Wednesday and Saturday show included a #ham4ham show. People could pay ten dollars to enter a raffle to win tickets. In addition, Lin invited different talents, either from the cast or outside performers, to come perform a skit or song for the people waiting for the raffle. He did this so that no one felt as if they wasted a day or were going home empty-handed. Thousands of people showed up to the #ham4ham shows to try their luck and watch an awesome show!
2) Husband Goals
Lin truly sets the standards so high for all other guys. Not only is his a genius, this is a fact not an exaggeration, he is also a sweetheart. He surprised his wife on their wedding day by having family and friends join in on a choreographed number of the song "L'chaim" from Fiddler on the Roof. This was super cute, and I now expect something like this to happen at my wedding! I included the link to the video, so watch and enjoy!
3) Interacts With Fans
Lin is the best at responding to his fans, especially over Twitter. He is always making our mornings and evenings with his funny and thought-provoking tweets. Also, Lin retweets and responds to questions that his fans have. He tries to connect with as many people as he can and show how much he cares about us. Here is an example of the lovely type of things he tweets in the morning to make our day!
4) He Is Extremely Talented
Lin is incredibly talented. Hamilton is an amazing piece of art which has impacted the lives of those around the world. Lin not only starred as the title role of Alexander Hamilton, a role which he was completely fantastic at portraying, but he also wrote the lyrics, score, and book for the entire show, an unfathomable task. But Hamilton is not the first show Lin has written. He is also known for his smash-hit musical In The Heights which was also a Tony winning production.
5) He Is Just So Darn Adorable
No arguments about it!
