Taye Diggs is extremely well-known for his Broadway roles, showing off his singing chops every chance he gets (particularly his impressive stints on Lip Sync Battle). Even so, his television and film acting made him a household name.
The actor moved from Broadway to television in 1997, playing music producer Adrian "Sugar" Hill on Guiding Light (via SoapHub). By 1998, he made his movie debut with How Stella Got Her Groove Back, the Angela Bassett-led romantic comedy that still makes us want to head to Jamaica (via IMDb). He followed up these roles with movies like Go, The Wood, House on Haunted Hill, and cult-classic The Best Man, playing the main character.
Apart from starring in other movies like Chicago, Til Death Do Us Part, and Equilibrium alongside Christian Bale, it's clear that Diggs has become a true television icon. The actor has appeared in shows like America's Next Top Model, Ally McBeal, Punk'd, Will & Grace, Day Break, Private Practice, The West Wing, and Murder in the First throughout his decades-long career.
Diggs' appearances on Lip Sync Battle made him the first contestant to win twice, and we still can't get over his performances of Ne-Yo's "Let Me Love You" (via Yahoo Sports). As if that wasn't enough, he recently hosted the CW game show Hypnotize Me, and even voiced a cat in My Little Pony: The Movie (via IMDb). It's safe to say Diggs has a very impressive artistic range – and we're here for it!
