Questions
Do
you have any siblings? Can you tell us a little about
your family?
I
have a good family
life you could say. I have one younger brother who's 14. He's a jock
and
definitely a lady's man. My mom has been behind anything that
I ever
wanted to do. We're very good.
Do
you play any instruments?
Somehow
I taught myself how to
play piano, guitar, bass, drums and the saxaphone.I just started picking up the
instruments and playing
them like it was nothing! Guitar is very similar to piano believe it or
not and
the bass is like the guitar just without the chords.
We
saw that you were on
Sesame Street when you were younger. How long were you on it? What type
of role
did you have?
I was on Sesame Street from 1989
– 1996. My mother on
the show ran the Daycare, so I was always on. It was fun! I got to meet
a lot
of interesting people and I still keep in touch with the guy who played
Elmo.
Have
you ever had any acting jobs?
I’ve been on
a
bunch of shows. Last season I was on Law
& Order and got killed. *
laughs * Law and
Order is such an intense week of filming! Before that I was on Sesame
Street
for 7 years. I was did a show on FOX called Johnny Zero which got
canceled
after they aired about 5 episodes, I was a boxing prodigy.
Who
have you met while acting?
All
the kids
I used to audition with are famous now
like Raven, Lindsay Lohan, Donald Faison, Jesse McCartney and Mischa
Barton.
It’s so funny. They were just regular kids. I also
remember bumping into
Chris Trousdale right before they were going to start Dream Street.
Do you keep in touch with any of them?
I see Raven, Mischa and Lindsay about
twice a year at clubs in Los Angeles. I saw Jesse at a few events over
the past
few years also.
We
see that you were part of Ford and
Wilhemina. Do you still model?
I
do still model actually, mostly print for all different
kinds of products. It’s really easy money.
Do you have an album out?
I’m in a boyband
called, “Close” right now and we’ve
gotten some offers so we’ll see what happens with
that. So, nope I don’t
have an album out in stores yet.
Could
you leave us a message for your fans and the fans of FTV?
Thank
you for all of the support and 2006 will be an even bigger and better
year. I’d definitely like to thank FTV. It was a
blast talking with you
girls.
*Thank you so much to Chris for taking the time to do an
interview with
us! We wish you all the best!
