Who is Doug Brochu, and Why am I Following Him on Twitter?

I just found out that I follow Doug Brochu on Twitter.  He tweets so rarely that I don't remember why I followed him, or for that matter who he is.

He's an actor, born in September 1990 in North Carolina, and he seems to have been a Disney and Nickelodeon kid, with roles on Sonny with a Chance, ICarly, Pair of Kings, and So Random.









I must have seen him on the Disney Channel and thought he was gay.

Not a lot of gay content on his twitter, facebook, or instagram, though, nor are there a lot of gay roles in his recent work.

He played "Handsome Lover" in the short film Winesburg: Death, an adaption of a Sherwood Anderson story,but it was a heterosexual lover.









He's friends with the gay-friendly former Disney kids Sprouse Brothers, but also with the non-gay-friendly former Disney kid Nathan Kress.




I probably should be following his older brother, Chris Brochu, instead.

1. More shirtless photos.

2. He's friends with Scott Eastwood.









3. He played a gay character in The Vampire Diaries.

4  In 2018 he starred in Tell Me a Story, a tv series with fairy tales reimagined into a "dark and twisted psychological thriller."  One of his costars was Disney boy Austin Butler.

  1. iCarly wasn't Disney. It was a Dan Schneider joint. Which makes me worry about the girls of iCarly.

    1. I thought the Schneider sexual predator thing was all extrapolating from the dirty jokes on his shows. Have there been any actual reports?

    2. I've heard that Amanda Bynes confessed a desire to murder her father (for bringing her into Schneider's Bakery) back in 2004. And there's the Jamie Lynn Spears rumor, though all I can substantiate is Spears was pregnant, father unknown.

      Nickelodeon did dump him as #MeToo became a thing, so, maybe? But his shows' ratings were lagging, and they fired Zarghami around the same time, so, cleaning house?
