Wayne Brady was born in Columbus, Georgia, and was raised in Orlando, Florida. Brady had decided to join the military when he was 16. He had no idea that a chance role in a high school play would not only get him great reviews but also change his long-term goals forever.
Soon after, he became very involved in the Central Florida theater scene. He acted in shows like “A Chorus Line,” “Fences,” “A Raisin in the Sun,” “Jesus Christ Superstar,” and “I’m Not Rappaport.” Brady moved to Las Vegas and then to Los Angeles in 1996, where he started working in theater and TV.
Brady is currently the host of the VH-1 show Vinyl Justice (1998), which starts in August. Brady has also been nominated for many awards for his work on the stage, including Best Actor in a Musical for “Cotton Patch Gospel” at the prestigious Edyth Bush Theatre. Wayne is currently on Dancing With the Stars with his partner Whitney Carson.
