Colton Haynes steps Behind The Rope. Colton is here to mention it all. Colton takes us on his journey from his early days in a small Kansas town to modeling at just sixteen for Abercrombie and Fitch to starring roles on two “teen dream” projects, Teen Wolf and Arrow, all while hiding his secret from the world that he was gay. Colton opens up about the industry’s involvement in keeping him closeted, coming out, and all the anxiety, depression, addiction, self doubt, insecurity and family loss that went along, in his case, with that. Colton chats about coming out the other side, the effect that had on his career and where he stands with it all today. Colton also chats about his stellar recent project in Swinder Seduction, in which he plays crooked twin brothers who are romantic cons living off the women they fool and steal from. Dirty John and The Tinder Swindler ain’t got nothing on Swindler Seduction. Finally, Colton chats about working with Ryan Murphy in AHS: Cult, the current state of being gay and out in Hollywood and his brilliant courageous memoir which captures this all, Miss Memory Lane. @coltonlhaynes @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef BONUS & AD FREE EPISODES Available at - www.patreon.com/behindthevelvetrope BROUGHT TO YOU BY: FIRSTLEAF - TryFirstleaf.com/VELVETROPE (Get 6 Bottles of Wine for $39.95 Plus Free Shipping) ORGANIFI - organifi.com/velvetrope (Use Code velvetrope at Checkout for 20% Off Your Entire Order) ETTITUDE - Ettitude.com/VelvetRope (Use Code VELVETROPE for 20% Off Your First Order) TALKSPACE - talkspace.com/velvet ($100 Off Your First Month) VH1’s The Surreal Life (Premieres Monday October 24th at 9/8c) ADVERTISING INQUIRIES - Please contact David@advertising-execs.com MERCH Available at - https://www.teepublic.com/stores/behind-the-velvet-rope?ref_id=13198 Learn more about your ad choices.
