"It fucking rocks, being queer," says actor Zane Phillips, who is currently playing Kim Cattrall's himbo, gay son on Netflix's "Glamorous," the series that premiered on June 22 with ten episodes.

The show offers a take on a "Devil Wears Prada"-like scenario, with Cattrall playing Madolyn Addison, a corporate diva who runs struggling cosmetic company Glamourous. She hires Marco Mejia, played by non-binary actor Miss Benny, as her assistant in order to help the company become relevant in a fluctuating industry. Phillips plays Chad Addison, the company's head of sales, who assures his mother that he's "gay, but not, like...gay" when he sees Marco's femme attire on his first day of work.

But in a very open conversation with DigitalSpy, Phillips assures us that he is "like...gay."
