“Oscar Nunez of NBC’s ‘˜The Office’ is the Gayest Straight Man on Television.”

Oscar Nunez, who plays Oscar Martinez on NBC’s “The Office,” is a comedic actor. His background, in sketch comedy and improv, reflects that. So true to his work, Nunez even went to the extent of humoring up his bio. Of course, this wasn’t known going into the interview. Nunez recently spoke to me about his bio, his gay role on television, and if Steve Carell is really like his character on “The Office.”
Q – I was reading that you were adopted and fostered by Cuban parents and then later came to the states to study improv and comedy. Is that true?
A – You got your hands on a bio and it was totally comedy stuff. I am Cuban, my parents are Cuban and I was not adopted.

Here’s a summary of the movie ‘The Proposal’ from ‘Office’ fan, Marley Rodgers.
When high-powered book editor Margaret (BULLOCK) faces deportation to her native Canada, the quick-thinking exec declares that she’s actually engaged to her unsuspecting put-upon assistant Andrew (REYNOLDS), who she’s tormented for years. He agrees to participate in the charade, but with a few conditions of his own. The unlikely couple heads to Alaska to meet his quirky family and the always-in-control city girl finds herself in one comedic fish-out-of-water situation after another. With an impromptu wedding in the works and an immigration official on their tails, Margaret and Andrew reluctantly vow to stick to the plan despite the precarious consequences.
Oscar, who plays multi–employed Ramone, has a lot of screen time and was super hilarious. The movie was excellent, very cute and funny. I highly recommend everyone see it (in theaters June 19th), especially for Oscar!
