Hi all! I recently joined rufus_daily on LJ, but thought I'd join this place too, since r_d is mostly a place for pics! Oh, let's see.... I've only recently became a FAN of Rufus. I first saw him in a magazine MANY years ago, and thought he was very beautiful, but I hadn't seen him in anything. Then, about 3-4 years ago I was channel-surfing and caught a glimpse of him in 'Charles...' on PBS, I was in-awe of him, but for some reason I had to leave (or something) and couldn't watch the movie. Then, yet again(!!), I spotted him on tv ( Middlemarch) and I thought, "there's that gorgeous man again!" But, once again, I couldn't stay to watch him. All these years I didn't even know his name (I'm blaming that on living in the US!), and stupid me, didn't think to search for him online. Fast forward to earlier this year, I rented The Illusionist...I was so excited to see him in it because, finally, I'd know his name and could search for him online. And, ever since, I've been rather obsessed! I've seen a lot more of his work now (still have a lot to see, though!). I'm just in-awe of him, he's so stunning and incredibly talented. I'm 29 and have never been THIS bananas over a celebrity before!

Welcome to this incredible site - it is probably the most comprehensive Ruf site around. I believe it to be one of the best celebrity sites, having visited others, this site is lite years ahead of the others. Most importantly, the people here are super!

welcome missoctober. you're among good company. I think most everyone here has a similar story. As to obsessed... well as you may know Rufus has been officially confirmed for Rock 'n' Roll on Broadway (a role he originated on the West End in London last year and a few of the er, hem, uh, fans here went to see from as far away as Australia ) and we are already making plans for our next pilgrimage. Jump in. Have fun. And tell us what you love about him. Because we'll sure tell you.

G'day missoctober! Welcome to the bunch of bananas - I think we can all relate (OK I admit to being (one of the) Aussie(s) who flew across the world to see him on stage). We're a happy bunch as we can all talk Rufus to our heart's content and no one thinks were are crazy!

Thanks, Ree! That's the great thing about the internet - finding people that share your crazy obsessions, that you otherwise wouldn't know about. hehe
