Walker further asked him if it threw him into any anxiety, and he replied saying that if it did, it came from other people trying to define him and his journey. Wentworth explained he always refers to a quote from Toni Morrison's "Beloved," which is about definitions and definers, that "Definitions belong to the definers, not the defined.

Wentworth said the beautiful thing about growing up in Brooklyn is the city's rich cultural and racial diversity. No one really bothered about where he belonged racially. However, there were times when he would run up against someone interested in figuring out his race. He said that would come like a surprise and, in some cases, a slap in the face. Wentworth stated people of mixed race have the same story of being incorrectly perceived and deciding whether or not to allow that perception to continue or to correct it.

Wentworth understands that identity and race are much more fluid than defining one particular thing. Wentworth concluded that acting challenges him to address those particular issues. He also featured in "Resident Evil: After Life. In August , the actor came out as gay after previously denying he was in During his speech, he revealed that when he was a teenager, he tried taking his own life several times before he eventually came out as a homosexual.

He said :. You only cry for help if you believe there's help to cry for. Wentworth also discussed struggling in his line of work as an actor who hadn't owned his sexuality in the public and he revealed how his involvement in the Mankind Project helped him learn about being a member of a community. In a interview, he opened up about his decision to come out as gay, saying he feels more fully expressed. Then, last year, he announced he was no longer interested in playing film or television roles that portrayed him as a straight person.

Hence, Wentworth revealed he would not star in the next season of "Prison Break" if it were ever going to be produced. Michael Scofield. Show all 90 episodes. Benjamin Byrd.

Personal Quote: [] My new addiction [after having quit smoking after 10 years] is a BlackBerry I felt dirty, but in a good way -- on what are his favorite TV shows. It's really difficult straddling that line between drama and comedy, action and romance, sci-fi and reality and Sarah did it beautifully -- on who he feels are underrated actors.

I'm hoping that what I am or what I'm not ethnically doesn't limit me in anyone else's eyes. I guarantee you it doesn't in mine. What I would say to that younger [his year-old] self - what I'd say to anyone who's walked a similar road - is to focus less on the fact that you nearly ended your life and more on the fact that you survived, that you lived to tell the tale.

And then tell it. I'd say, 'What you think of as scars are medals. They're badges of honour, testifying to something inside you that is determined and tenacious and enduring. Their sentiments have zero nutritional value and, in my opinion, reflect an antiquated belief system that is not only harmful, but on its way out.

That said, the attitude expressed does open the door to some interesting topics. Like gender performance, gender policing, shaming, sexuality, projection, toxic masculinity, and the lowering of public discourse. I've read some lovely comments today.

There was a lot of food for thought. I also read a lot of advice. Much of which boiled down to 'It's only words. I recognize, and appreciate, that this is coming from a positive, supportive, protective place. If only it was true. Words matter. Labels matter. The way in which we speak to and about each other matters.

Politicians spewing hate from the podium one day translates into real world violence the next. We know this. What's more, IMO, 'You shouldn't let it get to you' is code for 'man up. For the record, this person's comment was momentarily unpleasant. Then it was over. It affected me because I'm a human being. I feel things. Then I move through them.

And one of the ways I do that is by examining the situation and looking for the gift. The gold. The lesson. And as someone who's been called a 'little bitch' before because sexism, misogyny, homophobia, toxic masculinity , this felt like an opportunity for dissection and discussion.

And I took it. Hence the repost. The situation [homophobia in Russia] is in no way acceptable, and I cannot in good conscience participate in a celebratory occasion hosted by a country where people like myself are being systematically denied their basic right to live and love openly.

I'm constantly on the 'CrackBerry'. I didn't want to try the nicotine patch because I thought, 'Chemicals got me into this I just want to stop, cold turkey on my own willpower. I think I'm done with it.
