E-mail Luke
With the departure of Tauwan Patterson in spring 2006, the Meddies were worried that they’d lose “street cred” among audiences and fans of non-anglo descent. Fortunately, Luke and his ambiguous, omni-racial visage arrived at tryouts like a gift from God (or maybe Allah, or Buddha, Ganesh, or YHWH). Not only did he look like the pan-ethnic lovechild of Freddie Prinze, Jr., and Soledad O’Brien, but his spot-on rendition of Ol’ Blue Eyes’s “Fly Me to the Moon” could move the most xenophobic pale-face to buy him a mint julep.
This universal appeal has made Luke extremely approachable, especially to members of the fairer sex. Girls seek him out for advice, guidance, confidence…basically everything except intimacy. Not because Luke isn’t attractive, but because he wears undersized, yarmulke-looking wool hats and is generally assumed to be an orthodox Jew, uninterested in promiscuity. Luke is Catholic.
