Listen up, folks. Let me tell you about John Michael Higgins, an A-lister who turned his life upside down for love. You know what they say: rules are meant to be broken, right? John, who’s been acting since he was knee-high to a grasshopper, had this whole set of personal codes he lived by. One of them? Never date someone you work with. And certainly, never marry an actress. But guess what? He did both. And he’s never looked back. John, now 56, opens up to Closer Weekly with a laugh, sharing his journey of finding love where he least expected it.
It all started in Connecticut during a production of George Bernard Shaw’sArms and the Man. John met Margaret Welsh, and just like that, it was love at first sight. “I met her, and I was putty in her hands,” John recalls. That meeting blossomed into a 20-year marriage, with two beautiful kids: Maisie, 16, and Walter, 13. Love truly knows no boundaries, doesn’t it?
Now, John's not just a family man; he’s also a Hollywood sensation. From his quick-witted characters in films like Pitch Perfect and Best in Show to his comedic genius on Fran Drescher’s sitcom Happily Divorced, John has mastered the art of making people laugh. And with his 2019 Daytime Emmy-nominated hosting gig on the game show America Says, he’s found the perfect platform to showcase his natural comic talent. But you know what John really wants? To create good work that brings joy and recognition to people. And let’s face it, who doesn’t love a guy who can make you smile?

What Makes Hosting America Says So Special?
Let me tell you, hosting a game show is not just about reading questions and handing out prizes. It’s about connecting with people, making them feel special, and bringing out their unique personalities. John says, “I’ve never hosted a game show before, but I love finding what’s interesting about each contestant and turning them into characters. It’s fascinating every single time.” And yes, he used the word “interestingly” three times. But hey, when you’re this entertaining, who’s counting?
