Christopher E. Richardson was born in Stuttgart, Germany. His mother a model, dancer and seamstress and his father a US Army Veteran. At a young age he knew he wanted to be an entertainer, pushing back the sofa and turning that space into his stage to imitate whomever he saw on the TV. He went the route of athletics, working and learning a trade, Information Technology, rather than diving straight into being an entertainer. After retiring from semi-professional football he finally devoted more of his time to dancing and the performing arts. He is an accomplished Contemporary Dancer, Actor, Model, Writer, Director, Producer and Fitness Trainer with naturally impeccable comedic timing. Chris is known for his roles in commercials for Roman, match.com, Variis by Equinox, Endeavor Athletic and the N.H.T.S.A. For being a featured actor and dancer in Brandi Carlile's "The Joke" and GoldLink's "Meditation". For directing and acting in "Payback" and "The Ernest Palette", and for his recurring role in Black Panties. He lives is life be his mantra, #stayready, being in a state of mind, body and soul where you align yourself with whatever it takes each day to be in a state of readiness. Keeping yourself in position to be able to move, shift, accept, deny or receive whatever life and opportunity bring your way.
