Miss Benny’s Transformation: From High School Student to an Out-and-Proud Character<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Originally envisioned as a high school student, Marco’s character underwent a remarkable transformation throughout the four-year development process. Now, an out-and-proud, living homosexual, Marco’s story resonates deeply with Miss Benny.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the comedic world of “Glamorous,” where homophobia and transphobia are absent, Marco finds himself working as a makeup-selling assistant in a department store.

“There are so many unique challenges you face as somebody who is gender-nonconforming, specifically when you\u2019re assigned male at birth and you present very feminine. Almost every single character on the show is a different shade of queer.”<\/p>\nMiss Benny<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Miss Benny’s Dream Collaboration with Kim Cattrall in ‘Glamorous’<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

When Miss Benny discovered that Kim Cattrall, an iconic actress, was cast in the show, they were overjoyed. As a longtime fan of Sex and the City, Cattrall had always been an inspiration to Miss Benny’s acting style. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In fact, Miss Benny had even paid tribute to Cattrall’s character in a previous role. It was a surreal moment when they found out they would be co-starring with their idol. <\/p>\n\n\n
