On playing a gay character: "It's been great, man. It's so awesome how much support I get, all across the board. I'm just definitely honored to play this, because this is a very different character, and it's been such a joy to see him grow, and people really love him. I love that, because this was such a successful show. It's kinda like, you know how double dutch is, like, someone's already jumping in, and I actually made it. And people aren't like, 'Who is that guy?' They're actually excited to see Mason. So, it's just been an honor, a surreal moment, and I'm just very proud to play this guy. It's just great."
On fan reception: "It's mostly on social media. But that's enough for me. Because I know people, that's their way to kind of connect to people they look up to. Just seeing some of the tweets, and how I've had a positive impact on people just by doing what I love. It's a great experience, and I'm honored to do it."
