Some of the perks of being on 90210.

There's a lot of young, good-looking people on the show, and that's fun, you know, everyone's nice and.

Young Hollywood

Okay.

Life In The

I mean, yeah, mildly.

I was considered attractive until I got on this show and then I was like, wow, I'm the ugly guy on set, great.

Young Hollywood

Oh.

Life In The

Yeah.

Life In The

All the beautiful women.

Life In The

There are so many beautiful women that are just constantly, you know, it's written in the script.

Life In The

They don't like want to have to kiss me.

Life In The

Um but it's written in the script, so they have to kiss me.

Young Hollywood

The people that you're working with are kinda cute.

Uh, seen better.

Nah, they're great.

They're all gorgeous.

Life In The

I'm like, every day I'm like, okay, really?

Life In The

This girl, this guy, this guy, like they're all beautiful and and talented and cool.

Young Hollywood

You can't drive around LA right now without seeing a a billboard of beautiful people in a swimming pool.

Young Hollywood

Uh-huh.

Young Hollywood

How do you feel about that?

Young Hollywood

They're everywhere.

Life In The

Um it's crazy.

Life In The

It's so weird and it's never going to not be weird.

Life In The

It stops like, it stops feeling like you're face.

Life In The

I had Topher Grace come up to me the other day and be like, hey, love seeing your face every time I look up when I'm driving.

Life In The

I'm like, oh my God.

Life In The

It's pretty surreal, you know, seeing, I mean, I'm from Smalltown Canada, so it's pretty cool to uh, to see the billboards and that kind of stuff.

Life In The

But I gotta to admit, it wasn't as weird as I thought it would be.

Life In The

Like, I thought it would blow my mind every time.

Life In The

But after a while, it kind of gets normal.

Life In The

Which I'm a little, I think, a little sad about.

Young Hollywood

They're everywhere.

Life In The

They're everywhere.

Life In The

This guy comes over and he's like, dude, every day I wake up and your face is like right outside my window, man.

Life In The

Do you ever seen the episode of uh, Looney Tunes when uh, when Bugs is just howling out because uh, the big orange monster is behind him.

Life In The

He's just going crazy.

Life In The

And then all of a sudden he pulls out a sign that just says, "Yikes."

Life In The

You can't even say it just like, yikes.

Life In The

That's exactly the feeling.

Young Hollywood

I have to ask about the wardrobe being a girl.

Life In The

I've got like a kinda Cluelessy thing going on these days, which I totally love.

Life In The

It's so much fun.

Life In The

Everything's color coordinated.

Life In The

Everything's just so fun and flirty and fresh and the characters are so different that I love walking out of my trailer and seeing what Jess has on today or what AnnaLynne's got on today.

Life In The

It's always crazy.

Life In The

The wardrobe every day is like, I'm walking into a candy shop.

Life In The

My character's like anything goes.

Life In The

So I'm always like the one with the crazy outfits with the weird prints.

Life In The

And that's what I love it.

Life In The

It's always fun to try something new.

Life In The

Usually it's a little sexier than this.

Life In The

Um it shows a little bit more skin.

Life In The

Um but I kinda like it.

Life In The

I feel like a farmer.

Life In The

And it like it it switches things up.

Life In The

And it switches things up.

Life In The

Naomi is really in the drugs right now and that's that's why her hair is like 1940s.

Life In The

The people at the coffee bean are asking me why I keep taking shots of espresso.

Life In The

And I've been doing it for my character.

Life In The

So that's all I'm going to say.

Young Hollywood

I feel like you guys keep getting asked the same questions over and over.

Young Hollywood

Like, you know what I'm talking about.

Young Hollywood

Is there one question you haven't been asked that you're surprised that you haven't been asked?

Life In The

How does it feel to be the only black person in Beverly Hills?

Life In The

I'm not.

Life In The

That's that's the that's the funny thing.

Young Hollywood

How did you prepare for all the drug scenes?
