Watch: Jesse Williams Responds to Reactions Over His Nudity in Broadway Play

Published: Tuesday 10th May 2022 by Rashad

It’s the anatomy of ‘Grey’s Anatomy’ star Jesse Williams that set the net on fire Monday (May 9) after photos and videos from his performance in Broadway’s ‘Take Me Out’ leaked online.

Prominently showing off his birthday suit in the stageplay about a mixed-race baseball player who is gay, the conversation about Williams’ manhood (*ahem*) took social media by storm.

Is it ironic the 40-year-old was on Bravo’s ‘Watch What Happens Live…with Andy Cohen’ the same day discussing audience reactions to his nudity?  We don’t know, but hop inside to see what he said.

Although he didn’t respond the internet’s praise and worship over his package, he did deliver news about learning how to face insecurities about performing in the buff.

“Everybody around me [was] going, ‘Are you serious? Are you sure? Nude, nude? Naked, naked? Front?’ Everybody makes such a big deal,” Williams said (as seen in the video above). “It’s a body. Once you see it, you realize [it’s] whatever. It’s a body!” he later added.

Joined by co-stars from the stage production, Jesse waxed honest about his pre-performance jitters.

“I’m told it’s quite insane, but it’s a first, so I have nothing to compare it to,” he relayed. “And I won’t be scared of anything after this.”

Needless to say, we expect tickets to be scooped up quick, fast, and in a hurry before ‘Take Me Out’ takes its final bow on June 11.  Ahead of its departure, there’s still time to buy tickets by clicking here.
