The amazing Luenell

Luenell may have a somewhat brief role on the new Logo series DTLA, but she sure does make it memorable. As the mother of a young gay man finding his way in the world, she is both hilarious and heartbreaking. And it looks like she makes some amazing chicken.

We caught up with Luenell before the premiere of DTLA, coming to Logo October 24 at 11/10 c, and had her answer our nine questions.
