HEY TERRENCE! THANKS FOR TAKING TIME TO CHAT WITH US! CAN YOU TELL US A LITTLE BIT ABOUT YOURSELF, WHO IS TERRENCE LITTLE GARDENHIGH IN YOUR OWN WORDS?
I am an outgoing person; I love to laugh, and I love to make people laugh. I believe laughing is healing. I do not like to see people sad or hurting.
HOW DID YOU GET YOUR START WITH ACTING? HOW DID YOU KNOW YOU WANTED TO BE IN THE PROFESSIONAL INDUSTRY?
I visited Disney Land with the Boys and Girls Club and was dancing at their anniversary party and when I saw everyone clapping and smiling for us it made me happy. I want to do this forever. My mommy took me to a contest called IMTA. I placed in each competition and met my amazing team of representation and I never looked back.
WHO ARE YOUR ACTING ROLE MODELS?
Samuel Jackson, Kevin Hart, Denzel Washington, Taraji P. Henson, Tiffany Haddish, Chadwick Boseman aka the GOAT, Jamie Foxx and Cynthia Erivo and Janelle Monae.
WHAT’S SOMETHING WE SHOULD KNOW ABOUT YOU THAT MIGHT SURPRISE US?
Ok, so you know when its so cold outside that you can see your own breath? Well I can do it when its warm too, I can create that even when its not cold.
WHAT ADVICE DO YOU HAVE FOR AN ARTIST WHO WANTS TO BREAK INTO ACTING?
Never stop trying. Especially if you’re trying to convince your parents that you’re serious. Show them by practicing and studying the greats. If you have your parents on your side, then you have everything you need.
WHAT ELSE DO YOU WANT YOUR FANS TO KNOW?
That I love and appreciate them. I don’t take anything for granted. I was once that kid on the outside looking in and I dreamed of meeting some of the people I watched on television. This all seems still like a dream to me and when I see the messages from people saying they want to meet me I’m in shock because I’m just little ole Terrence I don’t think I’m that special, but they do, and I am grateful.
