A birthday medley from Jeremy Jordan is the best present! Music director Benjamin Rauhala's birthday was on the same day as Jordan's concert Aventura, Florida, so he arranged a medley of songs for Jordan to sing all for the first time that night.

Rauhala said "For my birthday, Jeremy told me he would sing a medley of any songs that I wanted, no questions asked." The medley consisted of hits from Britney Spears, Spice Girls, Celine Dion and even Disney's Frozen.

Jeremy is a Tony and Grammy-nominated actor and singer. He most recently starred opposite Kerry Washington in the provocative Broadway play, An American Son, directed by Kenny Leon.

Previously, he starred for three years on the CBS and CW hit, Supergirl after being a series regular on NBC's musical drama, Smash. He also starred opposite Anna Kendrick in the film adaptation of Jason Robert Brown's beloved musical, The Last 5 Years, for which he was honoured with the Rising Star award at the Napa Film Festival. Jeremy starred opposite Queen Latifah and Dolly Parton in Todd Graff's Joyful Noise for Warner Bros, and he's the voice of 'Varian' in Disney Channel's animated series, Tangled.

He earned Tony, Grammy and Drama Desk nominations for starring as Jack Kelly in the hit Broadway musical, Newsies, reprising the role in Disney's 2016 film release of the show. Also on Broadway, he starred as 'Tony' in the most recent Broadway revival of West Side Story; originated the role of 'Clyde Barrow' in Bonnie & Clyde, for which he won the Theatre World Award; and was featured in Rock of Ages.
