Actor, singer, Texan Kevin Cahoon is looking forward to season 2 of the Fox nighttime soap GREGG SHAPIRO | Contributing WriterGreggShapiro@aol.com Fox’s new musical nighttime soap opera Monarch is to country music as the network’s Empire was to hip-hop.

Among those queer characters is hair and makeup artist Earl, played by out actor and singer — and Texan — Kevin Cahoon.
