In the latest clip, Omar Gooding talked about getting into acting and finding success early on. While he originally had no intentions of pursuing acting, he'd seen other children do it and felt he'd be a natural once he was approached. After landing early roles for "McGruff the Crime Dog" and "Webster," Omar landed a film role in "Ghost Dad" which was directed by Sidney Poitier and starred Bill Cosby. He described Cosby's comforting demeanor and told a story about Poitier kicking Cuba Gooding Jr. off the set. To hear more, check out the clip above.
