Who is Avan Jogia?
Most fans know Jogia from his starring turn in Nickelodeon’s Victorious, but the Canadian actor has a pretty prolific creative career. Born in 1992, his first role came in 2006 in TV movie A Girl Like Me: The Gwen Araujo Story. A series of smaller roles on series for the CW and Nickelodeon led to his starring turn in the 2009 film Spectacular! as Tajid.
In Victorious, he played Beck Oliver for four seasons. He has shared that his time with the network was complex, telling Teen Vogue in 2023, “I don’t look back on (Nickelodeon) fondly. But I do think it’s interesting to see just what it means to people. It’s touching, but also it’s out of your control.”
He continued, “I feel like I represent sadness for people because they can sort of look at me and be like, ‘Oh, right. I remember when I used to be young and things weren’t so complicated.’ It’s like, I represent an uncomplicated time. Sometimes I think that I have a strong desire to keep that image safe for them.”
Jogia has continued to act and branch out into directing. He directed several episodes of Last Teenagers of the Apocalypse and the 2022 short film Alex. Like Halsey, Jogia also makes music with his brother as part of the band Sanity Ivory. Their album Mixed Feelings was released in 2020. Finally, Jogia released a book in 2019 also titled Mixed Feelings.
