Biography

Blake Jenner is a singer and actor from Miami, Florida. He found inspiration as a child in Jim Carrey and Michael Jackson, and aspired to be an entertainer. When he was 9, he wrote short stories and acted them out at school, thus deciding to pursue a career in acting. Throughout middle school and high school, he spent his spare time acting in advertisements and attending acting classes, but he also performed in school plays as well. He moved to Los Angeles, California, to pursue his career, and took his junior-year classes during the day and his senior-year classes online at night so that he could graduate early and make his dream of acting come true.

He had many different jobs, including a waiter, A clothing-store associate, a fast-food attendant, and a parrot salesman (he did not go from door to door selling parrots but, rather, worked in a pet store). After very many auditions, Blake booked a role to guest star as Miller Collins on the ABC family sitcom Melissa & Joey (2010). It was through this sitcom that he was first introduced to television. Blake was then featured as Ryder, the star football player and lead vocalist during the fourth season of the Fox hit Glee (2009).
