Just an audition I had for a tv show this week. The care description was 50 to 6 is any ethnicity gay now I never get parts like these because when they say gay, they don’t mean gay they mean flamboyant gay like the guy is on modern family or jack from WILL and Grace and you know I’ve been straight for pay my entire career daddy hunt was the first gay character I ever played and he’s very straight acting so but this is assignment and it’s fun to do. I just know that I’m not gonna be a cast because I know how this goes right it’s always been weird because it was probably written by straight guy and they like to write these sort of Clowney over the top gay characters because they’re not threatening and the reason it’s funny is because he’s married right that’s the payoff that he’s got a wife. That is such an old trope right we’ve been seeing that for 30 years now, but it is sort of funny the writing so I just thought I’d post it for you guys. He does the make up for dead bodies.lol
