MiniBio

Chris Colfer always seemed to have a natural flair for entertaining, didn’t he? From the moment he stepped onto the scene as the stylish and sharp-witted Kurt Hummel on Glee—that quirky musical comedy series that aired on Fox from 2009 to 2015—Chris Colfer made an undeniable impact. The show followed a ragtag group of high school misfits in a struggling show choir, and Chris Colfer’s portrayal of Kurt, the fashionable soprano with a voice that could stop a room, quickly became one of its standout elements.

With vocal precision that felt almost otherworldly, dance moves reminiscent of a young Bob Fosse disciple, and an air of effortless cool that screamed “too smart, too talented, too much for high school,” Chris Colfer brought depth and dignity to a character who could’ve easily been reduced to a stereotype. Instead, he transformed Kurt Hummel into a beacon of resilience—a role model not just for LGBTQ+ youth, but for anyone who’s ever felt like they didn’t quite belong.

Sure, it would’ve been easy to label Chris Colfer as just the next gay teen icon, the face of coming-out narratives on mainstream television. But here’s the thing: Chris Colfer was never defined by just one identity. Soft-spoken yet fiercely witty, effortlessly talented across singing, acting, and dancing, Chris Colfer showed the world he wasn’t playing a part—he was embodying confidence, self-awareness, and quiet strength. In doing so, Chris Colfer became a symbol for every outsider, regardless of age, gender, or background, whispering without words: You’re seen. You matter.

Trivia

When it comes to Chris Colfer’s career highlights, one standout moment definitely comes from Glee: The Concert Movie released in 2011. Fans and critics alike gave it high praise, making it Chris Colfer’s highest rated film to date. It really showcased his talent not just as an actor but also as a performer, bringing the energy of the hit TV series to the big screen. On the other hand, Chris Colfer’s lowest rated project around that time was Struck by Lightning, which came out in 2012. While the film had its merits and even marked Chris Colfer’s writing debut, it didn’t quite resonate with audiences the same way. Still, it’s impressive how Chris Colfer has continued to grow and explore different creative avenues over the years. Whether it’s music, film, or writing, Chris Colfer consistently brings something unique to the table.

C. Thomas Howell
Actor Movie

When he was just a teenager, this baby-faced leading man saw his career take off in a big way—thanks to his deeply moving performance as Ponyboy Curtis, the thoughtful greaser with a poet’s heart, in Francis Ford Coppola’s iconic film *The Outsiders* (1983). Howell truly captured audiences’ attention back then, emerging as a standout among the young cast. For a brief moment, it seemed like Howell was on the fast track to lasting fame, gracing the covers of teen magazines and building a loyal fanbase. But as quickly as it began, that Tiger Beat spotlight started to fade after only a few years. Though he appeared in modest successes like *Red Dawn* (1984) and the comedy *Soul Man* (1986), Howell’s trajectory shifted. By the late '80s and into the 1990s, many of his roles landed straight to video or filled out TV movie slots—not exactly the kind of projects that reignite blockbuster momentum. Looking back at the all-star ensemble from *The Outsiders*, it's clear that Howell’s early promise was later eclipsed by the massive careers of his peers: Ralph Macchio soared with *The Karate Kid*, Emilio Estevez became a Brat Pack icon, and Tom Cruise? Well, *Top Gun* turned him into a global superstar almost overnight. Still, despite the changing tides of Hollywood, Howell never stopped working. He embraced his path with quiet determination, appearing in more than 50 films over the years. And while not all of them were critical darlings, Howell consistently brought sincerity and depth to his roles. Even when the scripts weren’t award-worthy, Howell held his ground as a dependable and heartfelt performer. So while the world may have moved on, Howell kept showing up—proving that a true actor’s journey isn’t always about the spotlight, but about staying true to the craft.
