    I think Dorian Gregory has to be one of the finest African American men in the industry today. I really miss seeing his handsome face on Charmed, thank goodness for Soul Train. hide show

    I think Dorian Gregory has to be one of the finest, and talented African American men in the industry today, and he's very underrated. He is an awesome actor, he can go from playing a jerk, to playing a caring and nice guy. I have allot of respect for him also because he reminds me of the ol' school Motown, where their artist not only knew how to sing, but also how to act, h e's the total package. He would have fit in very well in that era. As an inspiring artist both in the theatrical scene and music scene, I would love to work with Dorian one day. I really would love the opportunity to meet him in the future. Keep up the good work Dorian, the big role that's going to show your depth as an actor is on it's way.
