A glass of wine at his side, Actor Tituss Burgess says he is used to fans serenading him with his catchy “Pinot Noir” song from Netflix’s hit comedy “Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt.” After honing his acting in theater, Burgess stepped into the television spotlight with Tina Fey and Robert Carlock’s “Kimmy Schmidt,” securing a supporting actor Emmy nomination for playing eccentric roommate Titus Andromedon to Kimmy, a former ‘mole woman’ trying to carve a New York life. In an interview with Reuters, Burgess discussed the new season of his show as well as race and stereotypes. In the interview, Burgess said, “The issue with race particularly within this country is largely because of lack of dialogue. Honestly, racism is something learned, not something that you just pick up one day and wish to dislike someone.”
