Just a little bit of fun... if last nights nominations were that of the winners from the last 5 seasons (this years winners included) Who would you say would've won in each category listed and why?

Steve Kazee - Once Billy Porter - Kinky Boots Neil Patrick Harris - Hedwig And The Angry Inch Michael Cerveris - Fun Home Leslie Odham Jr - Hamilton
LEAD ACTRESS IN A MUSICAL
Audra McDonald -Porgy and Bess Patina Miller - Pippin Jessie Mueller - Beautiful: The Carole King Story Keli O'Hara - The King And I Cynthia Erivo - The Color Purple
FEATURED ACTOR IN A MUSICAL
Michael McGrath - Nice Work If You Can Get It Gabriel Ebert - Matilda The Musical James Monroe-Iglehart - Aladdin The Musical Christian Borle - Something Rotten Daveed Diggs - Hamilton
FEATURED ACTRESS IN A MUSICAL
Judy Kaye - Nice Work If You Can Get It Andrea Martin - Pippin Lena Hall - Hedwig And The Angry Inch Ruthie Ann Miles - The King And I Renée Elise Goldsberry - Hamilton
I've not seen many of the winners performances, but love to hear from you guys, the experts, who have.
I do not think Neil Patrick Harris would win( nor did I think he would win the year he won). I believe Audra McDonald would win for Best Actress in a Musical and a Play.
In our millions, in our billions, we are most powerful when we stand together. TW4C unwaveringly joins the worldwide masses, for we know our liberation is inseparably bound.

should be: Jessie Mueller (Audra is my Goddess, hence my avatar, but I love Jessie as Carole.. Audra can win in another category for best lead in a play for Lady Day!)
Great to see some different perspectives. Michael Cerveris is definitely the most popular for the Leading Male, with Cynthia Erivo and Audra tying for Lead Female (no love for Kelli O'Hara or Patina Miller yet)
Daveed Diggs and Renée are the most popular in their category's too, showing that their Hamilton performance wins this year, were right.
