Fans of Cheyenne Jackson, or 'Cheyenne­tologists' as they prefer to call themselves, can consider themselves very fortunate these days - the singer and actor can be seen and heard in various projects, including his regular guest stint on '30 Rock' ; his lead role on the Broadway stage in 'Finian's Rainbow'; and on his latest CD, The Power of Two,' where his musical stylings can be heard alongside Michael Feinstein's.

Jackson is quite conscious of his rising success. The '30 Rock' guest appearance which showcases Jackson's comedic timing is one which he considers, "pinch-me moments every day", reports the New York Daily News in their Hot New Yorker series.
