Houston actually got his start acting when he tagged along with his sister to one of her auditions and a well-known agency. “When they saw me, and heard me making jokes in the lobby, they asked if I would read a scene for them,” he recalls. “I put my personality into it and had them laughing and applauding. At the end of it all, they wanted to represent me and not my sister. She was happy for me, and in the end, it worked out for the best.”
