The jerktastic James Roday has come a long way from his humble beginnings back home in Texas. Born and raised in San Antonio as James David Rodriguez, he moved to New York after high school to study acting. After graduating with a BFA from NYU, he started working in the local theatre scene and getting some parts. But James found casting directors seeing his last name didn't think he was Hispanic enough for their roles, and the ones not looking for Hispanic actors didn't bring him in, thinking he would look too Hispanic for theirs. As a result, he switched his stage name to James Roday, though today, he likes to go by James Roday Rodriguez. After making his debut in the sex drama Coming Soon (1999), James first made a name for himself when he landed a main role on the quickly cancelled law school show First Years, then joined Alicia Silverstone in the quickly cancelled matchmaker romantic comedy show Miss Match, though he also had a small role in the big screen adaptation of The Dukes of Hazzard (2005). But just when it seemed like James was a jinx and a hazard to cast as an actor whose shows never lasted longer than a season, he landed the lead in Psych, which he would go on to appear in more than 120 episodes of. USA's comedy about a fake psychic, played by James, helping the cops solve crimes was a massive hit, and made James a legitimate small screen star and a sex symbol for those who love funny fellas. Roday made us so gay! We'd sure like to rub his Crystal balls! Even after the show wrapped in 2014, it was such a cult favorite, they started making Psych movies featuring all the original characters. But since that show featured tons of hidden pineapples but very little shirtlessness from James, you'll be psyched to know we finally saw his bare chest in ABC's suicide drama A Million Little Things. Another long running show, that one lasted five seasons. Good luck lasting more than five seconds watching James' character takes his shirt off. The moment's supposed to be dramatic, since James is a breast cancer survivor about to bang a girl who starts looking at his surgical scar. But as we get a good look at his abs and fit upper body while she explores his chest with her hands before kissing him, we start feeling a tingle in our nipples thinking about this bearded beefcake. It's not the big C, it's your body telling you to grab his big D! The fake psychic might not know what the future holds, but we hope it involves us holding our cocks while staring at his. We're just waiting for the day we get full frontal from James Roday!
