CM: So I want to start with something really important—let’s talk about your hair, everyone loves it, do you have to keep it long for the show or is it your own style?

SMF: Well, it was sort of my own style in the beginning and now there’s no way I could cut it because they would yell at me. So it’s sort of become my style.

CM: Your character seems like the kind of guy who doesn’t care about academics and just likes to party.  When you were at college [Collin County Community College in Texas] did you focus on school or party like a frat guy?

SMF: You know, I was honestly playing Halo in my apartment from 10 a.m. 'til 3 p.m. I didn’t party much when I was out there because I was still pretty young. I did all that when I moved to LA and I got that out of my system early on. I like to go out with my friends and have a good time, but I wouldn’t say I’m a party animal or anything like that.

CM: So when you go out with your
friends, do you have a favorite drink that you order?

SMF: I wouldn’t say a favorite because I sort of alternate between drinks. Maybe a nice glass of wine, because I feel classy.

CM: I’m sure you’ve been at parties with a keg. How long can you hold a keg stand?

SMF: I’ve actually never done a keg stand.

CM: What's been your favorite "on campus" moment on the show so far?

SMF: My favorite scene is the one with Casey and Cappie in the first season when she asks where he wants to be in ten years and he says that he wants to be with her. When I read that, I said, “Wow, that’s going to be incredible.” When we shot it, it was really amazing and then we got a lot of really good feedback from that scene so it turned out to be a really amazing scene. So I really dig that one.

CM: And I kind of have a question about the make out scenes—are they awkward
or hot?

SMF: When I first started it was a little awkward, but after so many, it’s just another day on the job.

CM: Do you have a closet obsession? Music? TV? Like I’m secretly obsessed with Miley Cryrus.

SMF: It’s so funny that you say Miley Cyrus. I went back home for the holidays and was hanging out with my nephews who are like 6 and 7, and they watch iCarly. I sat down and I watched that show, and I have to say I enjoyed it. Is that weird for someone of my age to enjoy a show like that?
