Hollywood’s Rising Stars – Taye Diggs

One of Hollywood’s rising stars, Taye Diggs may very well be the next Denzel Washington. He exudes a masculine charm and sex appeal that leave women breathless, and contains a screen presence which cannot be denied.

The eldest of five siblings, Taye Diggs and his family grew up in Rochester, New York. He was often called upon to help out his young siblings, changing diapers and making sure they stayed on the straight and narrow. The children were all encouraged to express themselves and the environment at home must have been open to the arts – besides having an actor in the family, there are also two musicians and a dancer. Taye attended a Fine Arts high school and later earned his Bachelor of Fine Arts in Musical Theater.

After his senior year, Diggs performed in a Broadway production of Carousel. His talent was certainly showcased well as he was promptly signed by an agent. Diggs spent some time performing as a Carribean singer at Disney’s Tokyo theme park before coming back to New York to perform in the Tony Award winning Broadway production of Rent as Benny, the evil landlord.

In 1997, Taye made his way to daytime television with a recurring role on the soap opera Guiding Light as Adrian “Sugar” Hill. He appeared on the show for just over a year before moving on to bigger projects. First came a prominent role in the big screen adaptation of Terry McMillan’s How Stella Got Her Groove Back as a young hunk trying to woo an older woman played Angela Bassett. The steamy story made Diggs the object of many a woman’s fantasies.

Following his break-out success with Stella, the offers began pouring in. There is an alarming lack of quality roles available for young black actors, but Diggs has been offered the best. Casting agents see in him a professional actor who has the talent to carry off quality roles. Recent roles include two black ensemble pieces, The Wood and Best Man. Diggs also appeared in the critically lauded Go, which unfortunately did not do well at the box office.

While his filmography remains light, it is heavy with wonderful performances.
