He was previously convicted on a DUI charge in 2001.

Brian has thrown himself into music. In May, he had this to say, "Music is my passion and it's how I want to spend the rest of my days. I have no interest in returning to acting."

"Even if the band doesn't work out, I want to be associated with music somehow."

There has been speculation on whether or not Brian worked at a radio station in Detroit in 2003. Some say it was him, and others are saying it was a man impersonating him. The radio station was WRIF Radio where his on-air name is O.D.
