In the world of Hollywood, success and fame may not always equate to unimaginable wealth. This is a sentiment echoed by actor and singer Billy Porter, who recently opened up about his financial struggles during the Hollywood writers and actors strikes. Despite his impressive list of projects and accolades, Porter still considers himself a 'blue collar' worker and emphasizes that being constantly employed does not necessarily mean being rich.
During the Hollywood strikes, Porter reveals that he even had to sell his house due to the lean times. However, now that the work stoppages have ended, the talented star has been keeping busy with a string of new projects. He recently released a new album titled 'Black Mona Lisa,' starred in a movie called 'Our Son,' and contributed a song to the film called 'Always Be My Man.' Despite having a full plate, Porter humbly reminds us that he is simply a freelance worker, trying to make a living in the entertainment industry.
