Jamie Walters - "Hold On"

Jamie Walters played the mercurial Ray Pruit on Beverly Hills, 90210 and some fans just couldn't separate him from his television character.  He said that fans of 90210 would come up to him on the street and yell at him for throwing Donna down a flight of stairs.  While Ray Pruit may not have been the most likable, Walters' music was.  He scored a #1 hit with "How Do Talk to An Angel" with The Heights in 1993 and then saw "Hold On" become another hit in 1995.  In a strange twist that sounds eerily ripped from an Aaron Spelling-produced script, Walters put music aside and went to work as a paramedic in Los Angeles during the mid-2000s.
