Category presenter Jennifer Coolidge accepted the honor on his behalf. White has swept awards races since starting his turn as perfectionist chef Carmy Berzatto on the FX comedy-drama. He co-starred in the movie The Iron Claw and is portraying rock star Bruce Springsteen in an upcoming biopic.

He studied ballet, jazz, and tap dance throughout elementary school, but at age 11, he became disappointed with the lack of rigor at his middle school dance program. White decided to pursue acting instead, participating in cattle calls for movie, theater, and commercial roles that eventually led to him getting an agent.

If that was going well, everything felt really fantastic. Almost directly out of high school, he was cast in his breakthrough role on the Showtime comedy-drama series Shameless. White joined an ensemble cast portraying a poor, dysfunctional family in the South Side neighborhood of Chicago. White moved to Los Angeles at age 18 for the role, before he even knew how to drive.

I love everybody that was a part of it, and the experience was incredible. When it was going to end, I was questioning: Maybe I do just exist on this show. What else is there? Am I an actor? White first got the script around the time his role on Shameless was ending, and he was initially concerned there were too many similarities between Carmy and his character on Shameless , another talented but troubled young man from Chicago.
