Actor

I honestly love any good chick flick, as long as it's a good movie or pretty funny. 'Love Actually' is a no-brainer.

I understand that in TV, people like likable people. In film, you can get away with playing a terrible person. In TV, you're in people's homes every week.

As for my personal style, I like comfort a lot, like jeans and T-shirts. Having been a trainer for so long, I spend a lot of my days in tank tops, shorts, and T-shirts. Still, I do like the occasions where I get to wear suits and make that a thing.

People who act the most arrogant often are the most insecure, and they just can't even begin to accept the possibility that they might not be as good as they think they are.

I grew up in Chelsea on 22nd Street... I am really a native New Yorker.

I was a personal trainer for about a decade. I competed in powerlifting, and I did a bodybuilding competition. I was heavily entrenched in the personal training world.

In 2010, I was ranked top 50 in the deadlift in three different weight classes, and I won my first natural bodybuilding competition.

I started performing when I was 9 or 10, doing magic.

I'd feel weird on a show where it was a bunch of dudes that are my type. I like sticking out a little.

I wasn't athletic as a kid, and I was self-conscious about my body, but then in eighth grade I won a school contest, and the prize was a bunch of personal training sessions.

It'll be interesting to see if I ever have to play a typical, bland romantic interest. I'm quirky, and playing it kind of straight and bland doesn't interest me a whole lot.

I have a background in erotic dancing, but that's mostly just - it's not professional, it's just amateur.

I got a lot of empathy from my mother growing up, and I think it prevented me from ever really just writing people off.

There's some part of me, as an actor, that likes attention and validation, but on any given day, depending on the style and volume of it, it can be too much.

We need to create a society where girls and women are getting the same encouragement and support to build their careers as the boys and men are. From the start.

A place of freedom is the best place to have the most creativity.

I love the stuff that makes you laugh and cry. It kind of sucker-punches you a little bit. That's the thing that most interests me as a performer, in addition to telling the most captivating story.

It's nice being liked for playing the nice guy, but it's also fun to be the funny one.

I tend to be shy in asking people for photos - other actors that I really like and admire.

I was the youngest member of the New York International Brotherhood of Magicians. It was me and a bunch of 60-year-old Jewish men.
