AceShowbiz - Performing live on stage presents a unique challenge compared to acting for a camera, a difference that actor Jason Momoa has experienced firsthand. Momoa, known for his roles in "Game of Thrones" and "Aquaman", has recently taken to the stage with his band OOF TATATA, discovering the exhilarating and terrifying aspects of live performance.

"It gives me an opportunity to have two hours to really be scared," Momoa said in an interview with PEOPLE magazine. "I've never done theater, I've never been on stage - so it's another aspect that I've never gotten into."

Despite his nerves, Momoa has found a sense of fulfillment in live performances. "It's been fun to experience that," he said. "It's so exposed. And it's not something that if I mess up, it's just like, 'Oh.' You want to be perfect. But I think people are having a good time, so I'm just trying to go out there and spread a little love."

In contrast to filming a movie or TV show, Momoa described the distinct nature of live performance: "We are playing characters, and the camera's watching us. Being with a live audience, it's not my background. It's rejuvenating. You get that energy back from fans, so it's cool because, when you're acting, you shoot something, it's good right then, and you don't see it for two years."

Momoa's journey with stage fright is relatable to many who experience the anxiety associated with performing in front of a live audience. His openness about his struggles could inspire others to overcome their own fears and embrace the challenges of live performance. Despite his initial trepidation, Momoa has embraced the thrill and reward of performing live, continuing his multifaceted career with a newfound appreciation for the exhilarating connection with a live audience.
