After the Grey’s Anatomy star said he doesn’t think much about the nude scenes, Jesse’s co-star, Modern Family’s Jesse Tyler Ferguson, chimed in with a joke about family members seeing him nude in the play. “Your mom’s like, ‘Just how I left it,’” he quipped. The Broadway actor laughed and had his own joke to make: “It didn’t grow at all!”
While Jesse said that his experience in live theater is limited, he felt like it was better to “just get it over with.” Earlier on in the interview, Andy Cohen asked about audience reactions, but Jesse said it’s best to just tune it out. “A non-reaction is a really interesting reaction: the quiet,” he said. “I don’t like any of it. I’ve learned in my minutes in theater, which is all the first for me, which is don’t try to read into it, because it just creates more insecurity.”

When asked about how strange being completely naked for his Broadway debut is, Jesse admitted that it’s helping to make him even more fearless for future roles. “I’m told it’s quite insane,” he said. “I won’t be scared of anything after this.”
