Michael Rady: Melrose Place’s Breakout Star

Michael Rady is featured as one of “The Fall Guys — TV Men We Love” in the upcoming issue of Signature L.A. Direct, on stands August 31st.

Here’s what writer Susan Michals wrote about the 27-year-old actor: “Michael Rady has got a pair of the most piercing eyes in the business — they’re the kind you feel right down to your soul. You need that in a guy like Jonah Miller, Rady’s new character on the show Melrose Place. Rady got his first big break in the feature film The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants, and went on to recurring roles on Swingtown and Greek. Yet it is Melrose Place that will catapult Rady to new heights.”

She continues, “As it turns out, the cast sounds pretty down to earth. ‘There’s no divas, no animosity… I think we’re all just old enough to realize this is great work.’ Doesn’t he want to experience the Hollywood dream? Not particularly. ‘I’m pretty much a normal, quiet dude. I surf, read and hangout.’ And man oh man, it shows.”

UPDATE: Michael just got engaged!

I LOVED him in Greek. His character was geeky and adorable. Casey was an idiot…

But hey, he’s looking hotter in Melrose Place so good for him.

I mean that because the headline reads “90210’s Breakout Star.”
