People are easily intimidated when they decorate their home. They think it has to be one way. But there’s no one way. It’s your way, your style. At the end of the day, you have to live there. It’s your cocoon, your nest. You have to be happy in it Picture Quote #1

I grew up in a very celebratory town. We celebrate everything, from life to death and everything in between. So a lot of dramatics come into my aesthetic. And I’m an actor, so that adds more to the dramatic - I don’t mean over-the-top. The main thing is never to be boring Picture Quote #1

I always wanted to be an actor, but I always loved design, and growing up in New Orleans there was such great style, great architecture.

When people ask, ‘What role are you dying to play?’ I always say, ‘The one being written for me right now.’ Picture Quote #1

Be fun! I don’t like homes or rooms that don’t have a sense of humor or have some sense of whimsy or a personality. Your home should reflect who you are, and what you love.

I do find, coming form the stage and all that, I’ve always been conscious of my posture and my body, but also the style aspect, I do find myself throwing on a blazer and a nice pair of loafers more often. Daddy always likes a new pair of Guccis Picture Quote #1

I did grow up in New Orleans. I grew up right on the lake, right across the levee Picture Quote #1

My mantra is, ‘Don’t be afraid of color.’ What did it do to you? Do a color testing in alternate kinds of light you desire in the room because the pigment will change. And I refuse to believe that pale pale or white colors in a small room will buy you more square footage. Go with color all the way Picture Quote #1

As a rule, I try to avoid the French Quarter because of the crowds, especially Bourbon Street. But hey, some people love it. A great, wild, adult thing to see is the costume competition in front of the bar Oz on Bourbon early morning on Fat Tuesday Picture Quote #1

Im in love with red. I think its such a passionate color. Every flag of every country pretty much has red it it. Its power, theres no fence sitting with red. Either you love it or you dont. I think its blood and strength and life. I do love red. I love all colors. Great shades of blue, you find them in nature. Theyre all magic Picture Quote #1

When I did ‘Ugly Betty’ it was very similar to working on ‘Mad Men’ - great group of people in their own little world. But I don’t really see a lot of difference. Of course, on the cable shows, you can tackle subjects and be more specific, because networks have to appeal to the masses, but that’s constantly changing and evolving Picture Quote #1

I tend to wake up in the middle of the night with ideas crying to be documented Picture Quote #1

When are we going to stop labeling everyone? How many times have I been referred to as ‘out gay actor?’ Do we say, ‘out heterosexual actor’ when we refer to Tom Hanks? Picture Quote #1

Some actors have to make a choice. If they have the opportunity to become these huge megastars, making millions and millions of dollars and have to live a lie, that’s a choice they have to make. Not that I would ever be a big star, but I just had to live my life the way I saw fit Picture Quote #1
