But I made an impact.

I really wanted to change people's minds about my enthusiasm, my work ethic, everything.

So-

I wanted to be on covers that weren't just related to soaps.

I wanted to cross over and, you know, I was Arsenio Hall at the time, which you never had a soap opera actor on it.

Because he knew I was different.

I do.

I used to do a lot of appearances all over the country and there were just thousands and thousands of people, great fans that backed me up.

I used to do car shows.

From Detroit to Chicago and everywhere across the nation.

And the fan, I had to hire somebody to take care of my fan, you know, because we used to get like real fan letters.

So there were bags and bags on a weekly basis.

Yeah.

I mean, I worked with an executive producer, Wendy Rich, amazing person who really believed in me.

And I tell people, young actors too, you got to get together with people who really truly believe and see you for who you are.

And she really saw my enthusiasm, my work ethic.

and took it to the next level and really helped me a lot.

And she knew I could back her up too, and the show.

And I really was part of that show.

I really wanted to make the show the biggest show ever.
