Josh Henderson life and biography

Josh Henderson was born in Dallas, Texas. Josh grew up with his mother (Sharon) in Oklahoma & Texas. Graduating from Tulsa Memorial Senior High School in May 2000, he returned to Texas after graduation to auditioned for (2001) "Popstars" (2002/II) in Dallas. Remembered for "singing like Justin Timberlake" Josh was chosen as one of the six winners. His band Scene23 recorded an album, but their record label went bankrupt before the album's release. He was on the UPN show "One on One" (2001) for several seasons, and appeared on the ABC's "8 Simple Rules" (2002) where he met future (ex) girlfriend, Kaley Cuoco. Josh appeared on MTV's "The Ashlee Simpson Show" (2004) and was her boyfriend for two years before they split.

Like many tyros, Henderson kick-started his career with supporting roles, rose to lead billing over the course of numerous projects, and entered the mainstream only gradually; he made one of his earliest feature appearances in the direct-to-video natural horror schlock-fest Leeches! (2003), then embarked down a more earnest dramatic road as Bo Rider, a football player-turned-amputee (and Iraqi War soldier) in Steven Bochco's critically praised but short-lived prime-time series Over There (2005). Following a pivotal supporting role in director Anne Fletcher's inspirational dance-themed drama Step Up, and a multi-season portrayal of wild rebel Austin McCann on Desperate Housewives, Henderson joined Taylor Cole, Scout Taylor-Compton, and others for a lead role in the Butcher Brothers' direct-to-video slasher comedy remake April Fool's Day (2008).
