Vinnie Potestivo joins Trueheart to discuss how he got his big break in casting and then went on to help cast Beyonce and Mandy Moore in MTV projects. Vinnie shares the incredible origin stories of how Nick Cannon’s “Wild 'N Out” and Wilmer Valderrama’s “Yo Mama” became MTV hits. He also chats with Amy and Scott about what made the world fall in love with Jessica Simpson on “The Newlyweds” and how we can ensure greater representation for the LGBTQ+ community in front of and behind the camera. Amy and Vinnie reminisce about the excitement of starting their careers in New York in their 20’s and Vinnie shares his passion for helping people unlock their creativity.
