Dancing With Myself contestant Marcus Mack’s career explored

Hailing from Riverdale, Illinois, Marcus Mack graduated with a degree in Communication from the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign in May 2012, where he also minored in Theater. In his interview with VoyageDallas, he said that he moved to Los Angeles to make it big in acting. Addressing his initial struggle to establish a career, he said:

“I was an eager and ambitious 22-year-old that wanted to 'make it' as did everyone else in the big city. What could I do to stand out? I asked myself this every day…and still do! So, I started off acting part-time and working at Best Buy full-time.”

Mack then got an opportunity to star in FOX’s hit TV series Glee as the character named Dalton Warblur. He made valuable connections on the set that landed him jobs as a backing vocalist with artists like Kelly Rowland, Faith Evans and JoJo Siwa.

With things not going exactly according to his plans, he decided to pursue a career that would still allow him to go on auditions but also bring in some extra money. So, he became a flight attendant.

Speaking about the aviation industry and its impact on his career, Mack said:

“This industry has opened a lot of doors for me that I would never imagined it would until I got the job. I now model and have been able to travel for shoots and have done NYFW. I’ve been in French magazines (Malvie).”

He continued:

“I have been to 6 of the 7 continents. It’s just endless opportunities for me and has been the last 8.5 years that I have been doing this. I have recorded and released music with local producers in Atlanta and LA.”

In 2021, he settled in Dallas to start afresh. He is still a flight attendant, and also works as a freelance model. Mack is an excellent singer and dancer who is all set to showcase his talent on Dancing With Myself.
