My Take
Jayma Mays has a warmth that makes me smile on sight. Her Emma Pillsbury on Glee remains unforgettable, all earnest tics and aching tenderness, and her turns in Red Eye, Paul Blart and The Smurfs show real range from suspense to broad comedy. A Tennessee native and Radford University graduate, she sings and does voice work too, a quietly multi-talented performer. What I value most is her unpretentious presence; she delivers both laughs and pathos without ever demanding the spotlight. She's exactly the kind of dependable, likable actor I find myself wanting to root for.
