Christopher Meloni, aka Elliot Stabler, recently did an interview:
Quote:
Meloni has never shied away from acknowledging his gay fans. In a recent interview with Backstage, he once again mentioned his past history, stating that working at a gay gym was quite an eye-opening experience:
"The worst job was being a waiter—and I had some really bad jobs, whether it was demolition or working at a gay gym. I love me my gays, but I hadn’t been exposed to that as a young kid. But I hated being a waiter because I’m not good at people. The cornerstone of being a waiter is 'the customer is always right,' but I’m an actor who is being taught to challenge everything. There’s action and reaction. And you have to deal with these people who are reasonable or not very nice. I lasted three weeks."
But we were excited to learn that Meloni has his own (acting) crushes as well:
"Bradley Cooper, because when he’s on camera he’s so strikingly good-looking. When I watch him, he’s not using his looks—or he’s using them in the context of his character. [And] from day one, it’s been Daniel Day-Lewis. It’s almost upsetting how good he is."
