Christopher Gorham (on Ugly Betty, Insatiable, Vanessa Williams, Ryan Murphy & Working Shirtless!)

Christopher Gorham steps Behind The Rope. Christopher is here to talk about his decades long career starring in many of our favorite shows. From his breakout role in Ryan Murphy’s Popular to his new role starring alongside fellow Ugly Betty alum, Becki Newton, we mention it all. Christopher chats Popular, the careers it launched - his, Leslie Grossman, Leslie Bibb, and what it was like to work with Ryan Murphy before he was, well, “Ryan Murphy”. We deep dive into Ugly Betty - working with the greats like Vanessa Williams, Judith Light, America Ferrera, the cultural significance of that show and the likelihood of a reboot. Say whaat? Of course, we talk about his new role in Netflix’s “The Lincoln Lawyer” and working with Alyssa Milano on that other brilliant Netflix show, “Insatiable” - gone, but never forgotten. Finally, we talk about just why Christopher always seems to be cast in roles that require him to be shirtless. Like we said, we mention it all! @chrisgorham @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef BONUS & AD FREE EPISODES Available at - www.patreon.com/behindthevelvetrope BROUGHT TO YOU BY: OUAI - www.theouai.com (15% Off Your Entire Purchase.
