will was great as emcee but he is not a sam. yes he will draw the crowds but there is a chance that all the women who loved the movie and patrick swayze will laugh at the casting of will and say no way. there was a huge backlash with the first dirty dancing tour and the lead guy not being manly enough for that role.
So really what you are saying is because he is an openly gay guy he cannot or should not be cast in a heterosexual role. Rupert Everett was clearly right then when he said that performers should not necessarily come out. I thought this was the 21st century? So you have to be a murderer to play Macbeth? It is clearly a good job the "crowds....of women" are not aware that many of their favourite TV actors and presenters are gay but choose to keep their private lives private for the sake or their careers.
Should Will Young be cast - he will no doubt be very charismatic in the role with a spendid voice and excellent chemistry with his leading lady - it's called acting.
