Luckily Ryan Murphy has a great track record of really having his finger on the pulse of pop culture in a way that very few people do. And he is able to work things into stories in a ridiculously timely way - sometimes, before anybody else thinks it's going to be a thing, he is able to create these moments on television. I was thrilled to get to work with him, and I knew he would be able to tell that story with that same energy.

I haven't really made up my mind concretely about having kids.

I've certainly played those leading man or male juvenile roles, where you're not supposed to make people laugh.

My mother was predominately a stay-at-home Mom.

I love doing both theater and television.

This is a musical, ma'am. If there's no gay, there's a problem.

I figure, oftentimes the best way in is through humor, and you can deal with serious situations a lot easier, or at least bring up the conversation.
