Luckily for me I have a very supportive family and a loving group of friends.
I still can't shake the Nebraska off of me.
There are certainly actors who I felt rivalries with, but then, as time goes on, you realize that you have to keep your eyes on your own paper because everybody's doing their own work.
I had to be clean-shaven all the time to play a Mormon missionary, so after I was done, I grew a mustache out of rebellion. It was actually very polarizing. I became attractive to a completely new group of people and also repulsive to a new group of people. The lesson: mustaches are divisive.
I can't wake up at all without caffeine.
I've always been a huge fan of Tina Fey's. She's a very unique storyteller and has such a great voice and sense of character and comedy, and manages to do things that are oftentimes very broad but still have a lot of heart to them.
If you get into multicultural sort of casting for no other reason than to diversify, then it seems false.
Surround yourself with people who are going to support you regardless of what your sexual orientation is, and you can have a beautiful life filled with love.
I've been pretty career-focused since moving to New York.
I live in the East Village, and occasionally people will recognize me there. When I'm in Williamsburg, I always get recognized. Midtown, not so much.
I would always pick pop songs and would sing them even if they were not correct for the audition - which didn't always get me a lot of jobs, but sometimes they did.
At a very early age I knew I wanted to be an actor and then more specifically that I wanted to be on Broadway and be in musicals.
I've certainly played those leading man or male juvenile roles, where you're not supposed to make people laugh.
I feel very fortunate that while I had a little bit of personal panic or maybe a little internal struggle as a teenager, really coming to terms with the fact that I was gay, and also knowing I was going to have to tell my family. And, how was that going to affect things? And would it affect things? And ultimately, it did not.
I'm 6'2 and not a small person.
I used to do community theater with Conor Oberst.
I haven't really made up my mind concretely about having kids.
When I was a kid, there were hardly any gay story lines or characters on television that I recall. Then when I was in college, 'Will & Grace' started up.
As an actor, particularly in theatre, you're trying to get jobs on TV; but you're also losing jobs in theatre to people who are on television.
I think as a young person, you're kind of game for whatever sometimes.
