I was a boy soprano. I had a natural kind of voice and then trained it after my voice changed.

I didn't have to do paper routes. I'd sing for 5 bucks a crack at weddings and church functions; I'd have four or five on some Saturdays.

I was an actor for over a year before I ever saw a play.

I pursued a theatre career, and Hollywood came calling.

I grew up in Winnipeg, in the Canadian midwest, the fifth child. It was a great household to grow up in - I was loved to sweet death.
