"Ugly Betty"'s Mark Indelicato on Justin's First Kiss

In what I believe are Mark Indelicato's first comments on his recent boy-boy kiss on Ugly Betty, he told New York Magazine:

When Silvio [Horta] sort of first introduced the character and what the character was going to do at the beginning of the season, I was very, very scared,” he said. “And I was very, very hesitant; I really was. It was just so awkward to have to, you know, let alone kiss someone in front of a camera, to kiss a boy, and to have that weight on your shoulders of knowing that it’s the first boy-on-boy kiss ever on television, that’s tough,” he said. "That’s what really nerve-racked me the most. It wasn’t kissing the girl or the boy or the this or the that; I didn’t care about that. It was, 'Am I going to do it right?' And I’m really happy with the way it turned out.

In the short interview, Indelicato also discusses the end of the series and how hard that is for him. (H/T AE reader Bennett.)
