PHOTOS Glee’s Darren Criss on dating show ‘You Rock, Let’s Roll’ in 2008
From the “Before They Were Stars” file are these great photos of Glee hunk Darren Criss on the Fuse TV game dating game show You Rock, Let’s Roll from 2008.
Just like all of the Darren Cris fanatics who found these photos before me, I’ve scoured the interwebs looking for a video clip of his episode with no luck at all. I traced the following screen capture back to a Tumblr blog which included a caption explaining its origin:
“So I was being nostalgic and went through videos that I still have on my dvr from 3/4 years ago. And low and behold in a promo for the Fuse show, “You Rock, Let’s Roll,” that didn’t last and guess who I seeee”
I did manage to find this preview clip for the show that includes a very brief appearance of a blindfolded Darren Criss at the :28 mark:
Here’s a disappointing, low-resolution screen capture:
Not only could I not find any video clips of Darren’s episode but I also couldn’t find any information on whether or not he even won! My guess is that there is a blond woman out there kicking herself right about now!
As far as the concept of the show, here’s the 411 from the Fuse web site:
About the Show
American Idol favorite Jared Cotter and All My Children’s Chrishell Stause are giving music lovers the chance to meet three good lookin’, eligible musicians from different musical genres. Then, we’re leaving it up to them to decide which musician rocks their world — without ever seeing them!
They’ll have to make their decision based on probing questions, physical challenges and the all-important final performance round where the musicians will have to rock their chops off if they want to win their dream date.
Watch complete strangers find love through the power of rock and roll. It’s why they invented TV!
And here’s a Photoshopped version of the screen capture correcting the color and perspective a bit:
