It looks like Frankie Grande of Big Brother 16 is headed back to what he knows best: Broadway! And in his dream role, as he has been cast as Franz in the Broadway production of Rock of Ages. Frankie had mix reactions during his time as a member of the Big Brother 2014 cast, but we all saw his over-the-top personality and Broadway is perfect for him. Get the details below in our Big Brother 2014 spoilers!

Big Brother 2014 Spoilers - Frankie Grande in Rock of Ages

In an interview with People, Frankie talked about the casting news: “I’m so unbelievably excited. I have wanted to play Franz ever since I first saw the show. I think it is one of the best, funniest, most clever roles.”


We all heard about his time on Broadway, which he talked about a lot during his time living in the Big Brother 2014 house. Apparently he was close to booking this role a few times, but was never picked: “I’ve actually had three final callbacks since the show originally opened. Every time I made it down to the final two people, they went with the other guy. The first time I wasn’t blonde. The second time I was too blonde. The third time I was too short. That is how Broadway works. They have a surplus of actors, so they can be that picky.”

Frankie will star in Rock of Ages on Broadway from November 10 until January 18.

Congrats to Frankie and if you missed pictures of him, check him out from this past weekend, as he got done up as The Flamingo, from the comic book cover photos on Big Brother 16:
