AceShowbiz - Lamorne Morris, known for his role as Winston Bishop on "New Girl", ecently received an Emmy nomination for his supporting role in "Fargo". In a touching video, Morris shared his reaction to the news, with his daughter, Lily, playfully teasing him about crying.
Morris believes it's crucial for children to understand the importance of emotional expression. "It's okay to cry, whether you're sad or happy," he said. "There are times where she'll see me cry because I'm sad or I lost someone, and she's trying to understand what that means."
In his partnership with Mike's Hard Lemonade, Morris emphasizes the need for self-reward after a long day's work. "A lot of times in your career, things may not align with your actual lifestyle," he said. "But this one made sense. It's all about having hard work being paid off with a reward."
Despite his success, Morris acknowledges the challenges facing the entertainment industry. "A lot of folks are leaving L.A.-people are just bouncing completely," he said about the reported Hollywood exodus. He considers himself fortunate to still have work amid mass layoffs.
Morris's career journey has been filled with challenges and unpaid work, which he believes contributed to his success. "Being part of a superhero franchise is definitely at the top of [my] list," he said. "And getting the call to be a part of it, you felt like all the hard work paid off."
Morris remains an advocate for emotional expression and perseverance in the face of adversity. He believes in embracing both the joys and challenges of life, whether on the big screen or in real life.
