Accomplished openly gay actor and singer Cheyenne Jackson was born in Idaho and raised in Newport, Washington. Working in advertisement for a magazine, he was immersed in the world of theater, which prompted him to move to New York City for his acting career. With roles in Broadway shows such as Thoroughly Modern Millie and Aida, Jackson would make his mark in 2005 as the lead in All Shook Up, winning the Theatre World Award for Outstanding Broadway Debut. Flourishing in his acting career, he would later guest star in sitcoms Ugly Betty and Glee to name a few, and have a reoccurring role in NBC's 30 Rock. In 2008, Out magazine recognized Jackson as Entertainer of the Year. Not only has Jackson taken the entertainment industry by storm, but he also lends his hand to the Hetrick-Martin Institute as a national ambassador and spokesperson for the LGBT youth center. HIDE
