Victor Webster





Victor Webster is a Canadian actor born on February 7, 1973 in Calgary, Alberta, Canada. The son of a police officer and a hair-stylist, Victor was interested in acting from a very early age. Participating in many school plays and theater classes helped him to realize his love of the art. Having never lost his passion for acting he chose to venture into the business world to try and carve out a life for himself. Years as a stockbroker and then owner of an import export company left him feeling unfulfilled. A chance encounter then provided him an opportunity to pursue his dream. It was at this point that Webster was approached for an acting gig. He got that job and wound up starring on the NBC daytime series Days of Our Lives. He immediately followed that with a starring role on the AMC Network series The Lot and then the number one nationally syndicated action series Mutant X. With this Webster caught the attention of People Magazine and was named one of their "50 Most Eligible Bachelors". Victor then shot the film "Bringing Down the House". As a teenager, he frequently found himself in trouble because of his misguided behavior. Martial arts proved to be the perfect outlet. He spent many years teaching and competing, achieving an undefeated record in the heavy weight Black Belt division, as well an undefeated record as an amateur kick-boxer. Victor added a risque photo spread of himself to his resume by posing semi-nude for the January 2000 issue of Playgirl magazine.
Webster went on to portray Coop, a cupid, in the hit televison series Charmed in 2006.
