#   “You know, I don’t play the race card a lot. I’m half-black, half-white, and I’m proud of - my skin is brown. The world sees me as a black man, but my mother didn’t raise me as a black man. She didn’t raise me as a white guy. She raised me as Shemar Franklin Moore.”

    Shemar Moore is a beautiful person inside and out. I met him a few times and found him to be gracious. He is intelligent and talented.People forget that he has an Emmy award.

    I think some people thought just because he’s beautiful that he wasn’t smart. I can’t tell you how many friends who know I adore Shemar and watch “Criminal Minds”, tell me how impressed with him they are because his character is multifaceted. He’s not just beautiful.

    Shemar also has a serious work ethic. Back in 2001, Shemar was on “Young & the Restless” during the day. He hosted “Soul Train”. Then, he traveled around the country with a play on the weekends. Plus, it is good that he loves his mom. He takes good care of her.

    In conclusion, Shemar Franklin Moore is a good man. God bless him.

    This article on Shemar Moore is great. I loved this article to find out more about him. He seems like a great all around guy. Someone who is great loyal friend. Thanks for the article. It sure would be great to meet him and pick his brain with lots of questions. I wish him continued success in life. Seems as if he is well grounded in life and will go far personally and professionally.

    Best wishes.

    I have followed Shamar Moore’s career for years and recently saw him on Ellen. I’m always impressed with his intelligence and great sense of humor, not to mention his fabulous dancing… wow!

    The seemingly endless controversy surrounding the fact that he may or may not be gay is immaterial. Who cares? As a gay man myself, I would of course welcome him into our LGBT family with open arms, but if he’s straight, as he says he is, and yet still accepting and respectful of gay people, that’s good enough for me.

    Shamar is one of the best looking, nicest, and most talented actors we have. His family must be very proud of him. His his parents especially should be proud that they raised such a fine young man.

    Thank you for who you are Shamar - keep up the great work!
