VIDEO: Todrick Hall Talks Taking on KINKY BOOTS' Lola on Broadway

Todrick Hall steps into the iconic shoes of Lola in KINKY BOOTS on Broadway, beginning tonight, November 1st. Today, Hall speaks to ET about what it means to fulfill his lifelong dream of starring in a lead role on the Great White Way. "I'm the most nervous I've ever been," he admits to ET. "I never dreamed that I would come to New York, let alone be in a Broadway show, let alone star in a Broadway show and have my picture outside of a theater I walked past for years and so it just feels very surreal." Watch the interview in full below!

Hall will serve as a guest judge on the upcoming season of "RuPaul's All Stars Drag Race." He has appeared on Broadway in shows like The Color Purple and Memphis, and rose to fame as a contestant on the 9th season of "American Idol," where he was a semi-finalist and garnered millions of fans. Since then, he has become an international personality, with millions of dedicated Youtube fans, and 655,000 Instagram followers (@todrick).

Kinky Boots tells the uplifting and heartwarming tale of Charlie Price, a young man reluctantly taking over his family's struggling shoe factory and looking for a fresh idea. Charlie meets and finds inspiration in Lola and together, they discover that it takes a good friend to make a great pair.
