Rex Lee is having hair problems.

“All my friends asked me, ‘why did they put you in such a bad wig?’” said the actor, recounting the time he and his pals settled in to watch the pilot of his new ABC comedy series Suburgatory. “And that was my real hair. For whatever reason, my hair person and I decided that I was gonna have what at the time you would’ve called ‘Justin Bieber hair’. But apparently on camera it looks like I’m wearing a bad wig. So I bring shame to gays everywhere, apparently.”

Which, of course, isn’t true. Starring as Lloyd, the long-suffering assistant of Ari Gold (Jeremy Piven) on the hit HBO series Entourage for seven seasons, Lee became a welcome anomaly in the TV landscape –a gay Asian-American actor, playing a gay Asian-American character in a major role.
