Logan Henderson stars in the new Nickelodeon live-action comedy series Big Time Rush as música group member Logan, the brains of the operation who is the voice of reason for his friends.

A native of Dallas-Ft. Worth, Texas, Henderson always wanted to be in the entertainment business but wasn’t certain how to get started. After he attended an atuação studio in his hometown at age 16, he fell in amor with acting. His first on-camera role was as a guest estrela on the televisão series Friday Night Lights. “We filmed in a movie theatre and I was in a fight scene with the main character, Smash,” Henderson recalls. “It was the coolest first experience on set.”

Henderson enjoys cantar but never considered himself a singer. “In the last year, I have been finding new ways to use my voice por working with a vocal coach and doing various exercises,” he said. While his character is still honing his skills on the dance floor, Henderson, who is 20 years old, confesses, “I am not a great dancer either but I can bust out one cool mover – the back flip.”

When he has downtime, he prefers to be outdoors, either hiking or being on a board – wakeboard, skateboard or snowboard. After driving non-stop back and forth from Texas nine times now, Henderson has finally settled in Los Angeles.
