Inside Wayne Brady’s blended family in ‘The Family Remix.’

Everyone knows Wayne Brady — actor, comedian, host, singer, and preeminent multihyphenate of this generation — but there’s more to the man seen onstage. What happens when such an iconic entertainer peels back the curtain on the realities of an unexpected life? In “Wayne Brady: The Family Remix,” Brady has turned the term “modern family” on its head. He’s still best friends with his ex-wife, soulmate, and business partner, Mandie Taketa. Together, they co-parent their 21-year-old daughter, student, and aspiring artist Maile Brady. They also run their production company, A Wayne & Mandie Creative (“Wayne Brady’s Comedy IQ”). Jason Michael Fordham, Mandie’s life partner since 2009, handles the family’s cinematography and post-production. Mandie and Jason also have an almost 3-year-old son, Sundance-Isamu.

The new show is not just therapeutic for the entire family as they share their vulnerability for all to see, but it also allows viewers to get to know each family member on a personal level. Audiences will find many ways to relate to the core four, with Wayne’s own journey at the center of the show. In a recent interview, I had the chance to catch up with the Brady-Taketa-Fordham family. We dove deep into their favorite films, what they nerd out on, and even who would win in a Dance Dance Revolution competition. The answers will shock you! Check out the full interview below.
