FROM INSPIRE TEEN – James Maslow is stars as James Diamond on the show, “Big Time Rush.” Inspire was able to chat with Maslow on his new life and new role.

You’re in a brand new Nick show, what were your expectations of “Big Time Rush” when signing on?

In the beginning, the idea of having a TV show and a contract with Sony seemed quite appealing, but like all other auditions I tried not to get my hopes up. After over two years of auditioning though, I began to believe they would not put that much time, money, and effort into something they didn’t want to succeed greatly. Nick and Sony set expectations for the show and music very high, and I followed suit, but none of us could have predicted that it would do as well as it currently is! We’re all very grateful.

And you star as James Diamond – could you describe him to us?

James Diamond is a good-hearted, driven character that often puts too much emphasis on material objects, and straddles a fine line between confidence and cockiness. He is driven by fame, fashion and girls, but in his defense; aren’t we all motivated by the last one?

What has been one of the greatest episodes to film and why?

So far, “Big Time Love Song” has been my favorite to film. In that episode I had the pleasure of working with Lorenzo Llamas, which was great, [I] had my hands and face covered with prosthetic which was weird but fun, and [I] got to dance as a caveman…I think I have said enough.
