Christopher Trousdale, an American actor and recording artist, is a writer and performer.
He is a former member of Dream Street and spent time with Jesse McCartney, Frankie Galasso, Greg Raposo, and Matt Ballinger.
Early life
Trousdale was the son of Helena Pask Trousdale and her first husband, William Sakelson. His parents divorced, and Wayne Trousdale remarried. His stepfather's name became his stage name.
Personal life
Trousdale was often private in terms of his personal life. He appeared in an interview with the other four members shortly after Dream Street was launched in 2002, and words of animosity and resentment were used among the five members, with the four being against Trousdale and Trousdale against the four teams. Trousdale would keep in touch with members such as Jesse McCartney; McCartney never said he was in touch with Trousdale nor have Ballinger or Galasso as the years went on; Trousdale and Raposo would begin to form a new relationship with one another, often meeting in New York while the two were on one another's Instagram pages.
Trousdale's sexuality were rumored over the years, and although he endorsed LGBT rights, he never revealed his sexual orientation. Trousdale received his first kisses while on Broadway from Ashley Tisdale and Lea Michele, who was revealed in June 2019 from an interview with Famous Birthdays. Trousdale, according to the crew and cast members of A New York Christmas Wedding, was a "liberally gay actor."
Career
Trousdale began his Broadway career when he was eight years old, touring with the production of Les Misérables, where he starred alongside Ashley Tisdale. He was later cast as Friedrich von Trapp in the 1998 Broadway revival of The Sound of Music. After a successful run, he moved to New York City at the age of ten, to join the Broadway production of the play with Ricky Martin and Lea Michele of Glee. While in New York, he joined the well known children's group The Broadway Kids (past members include Christy Carlson Romano, Jenna Ushkowitz, Gregory Raposo, and Lacey Chabert) and performed in popular plays such as Beauty and the Beast (musical), The Wizard of Oz (1987 musical), and the Radio City Christmas Spectacular.
When he was 14 years old, Trousdale caught the attention of two producers who were putting together a boy band in New York City. Consisting of five members, including former Sugar Beats member Jesse McCartney and former Broadway Kids bandmate Greg Raposo, he joined Dream Street in 1999. Chris Trousdale met Greg Raposo during their time in The Broadway Kids. They were later reunited for Dream Street. Dream Street released their debut album Dream Street (Dream Street album) in 2000. They released their finale album "The Biggest Fan" in 2002. After releasing The Biggest Fan Dream Street broke up.
Trousdale would go on to pursue a solo career with the managers of Dream Street; he was soon signed to Columbia Records and even heading to go on tour with the likes of Aaron Carter and Play. However, Columbia would want Trousdale to be part of a new Dream Street boyband, something Trousdale and his managers did not want to do. As the managers would argue with the executives of Columbia, Columbia would drop the managers and then drop Trousdale from the record label, leaving him an unsigned artist by 2005. Trousdale would then be dropped from tours such as Aaron Carter's.
Trousdale went on to record "Kissless Christmas" and "Wild Christmas" for School's Out! Christmas album in addition to the popular duets with the girl group Play (rendition of "I'm Gonna Make You Love Me") and solo artist Nikki Cleary (remake of the Grease track "You're the One That I Want"), which were huge hits on Radio Disney. However, shortly after his solo career started to take off, Trousdale put his career on hold in 2006 and moved back home to Michigan to take care of his ailing mother.
In 2009, Trousdale did an interview where it was mentioned an album was expected to drop that same year; however, it was never released.
In 2012, Trousdale auditioned on The Voice.
On June 30, 2014, Trousdale announced via Twitter that he had joined the Spectra Music Group to work on his solo album.
In 2015, Trousdale taught dance classes at Artworks Studio in Michigan.
In February 2019, Trousdale announced via his social media accounts – repeated in his June 2019 interview on Famous Birthdays – that he planned to release an EP in August or September; however, no new EP nor album had been released by his death in June 2020.
