Mexia Daily News 7/6/99: Victor Webster Victor Webster: Never Give Up
by Seli Groves Daytime Dial
"I started taking acting lessons as soon as I began doing television," Victor said, "and that led to a new career as an actor."
Victor said his acting teachers had been encouraging. What if they'd been discouraging? Would he have still pursued an acting career? "I felt confident about what I wanted to do," Victor said. "But if they'd been discouraging, I would have asked how I could work to improve myself so that I could also improve my chances of becoming an actor."
Even with good looks and acting potential, it can still be difficult to break into the field. But Victor, who still models, remained focused on his goal, and it finally happened for him with a role on Aaron Spelling's daytime series, "Sunset Beach." "I was cast as Roger the Bartender," Victor said. "It was a recurring role, but it was a great chance to learn more about television acting and, specifically more about soaps."

Live Wire: Mutant X's Victor Webster tells Bryan Cairns why he doesn't want his character to become a sex symbol. Some hope!
Ranging from construction worker and shoes salesman to bouncer and stockbroker, he was the proverbial jack-of-all-trades before breaking into modeling. Though he worked with such fashion big-wigs as Versace, Armani, and International Male, Webster says of the catwalk game that "It wasn't fulfilling enough," so numerous commercials followed, before his first big acting break came in fairy-tale fashion when a customer at the restaurant where he was waiting tables in Orange County recommended sending in a resume and portfolio for the daytime soap Sunset Beach. After a reading, the casting agents said, "'We really like you a lot,'" recalls Webster. "'We're going to cast you.' And I go 'Really? What's that?'"
Webster didn't get the part he'd been recommended for, but instead nabbed a recurring role as Roger the bartender before the show went under.
