Cute actor/dancer Robert Hoffman has, no doubt, appeared on a screen near you. He hit TV in Nick Cannon's improv MTV series "Wild 'n Out" and was part of the cast of TV's "Vanished". Robert starred with Amanda Bynes and Channing Tatum in the film She's the Man and he both danced in and won a choreography award for his work in the gritty film You Got Served. This week you can catch the young, athletic hottie, who credits Michael Jackson's "Thriller" with sparking his interest in dance, as the lead in the Step Up sequel Step Up 2 The Streets.
We hooked up (well, not literally) with Robert in Beverly Hills to get the inside info on the hot new dance film, his dance history, his chemistry with co-star Briana Evigan and more. Robert's fly threads consisted of jeans, gray patterned tee and dark brown sweater. His hair is blonde-streaked brown. Let's get down to learning about the film and his amazing street dance moves....
TeenHollywood: Had you seen the original Step Up?
Robert: Me and Channing [Tatum] have worked together on a few projects, and I love Channing to death. I think he knows exactly how to get the response he wants from those young girls. I think he's really good at being 'that' guy. I thought it was a fun movie for young people. None of the dancing really stood out and blew me away, but I don't think it was meant to do that. I think it was meant to be a fun, romantic story. So, for what it was, I thought it was a great film. I thought it was fun, and I thought Channing did a good job.
