When I was 13, I was in my tent at Girl Scout camp, trying to change out of my bathing suit and talking at the same time. I fell out of the tent in front of everyone with my bathing suit around my ankles. I was humiliated - but no amount of humiliation has ever seemed to stop me.
Everything related to 'SNL,' that was very sudden - from the time I found out I was joining the cast to the time I could read on a blog that someone watching the show thinks I'm fat, that was about 30 days. That blog part, that could've moved a little more slowly. But hey - it's all material, right?
I have never turned to my girlfriend and said, 'Oh, okay, babe,' and I see it in scripts all the time.
I actually do enjoy the Kardashians' show, and I know that other people do enjoy it, but at the same time, they want to make fun of it. Like, I know that girls are watching that show - I'm just the only one courageous enough to say it. Other people are courageous in acts of war, but I'm courageous in my love for the Kardashians.
I have never turned to my girlfriend and said, Oh, okay, babe, and I see it in scripts all the time.
I guess funny people are attracted to funny people, and then you get comedy marriages.
To clarify, the issue isn't that I'm too fat, it's that I'm too phat. Can I get a WHAT-WHAT!
I went to drama school at NYU for serious acting. So I was doing Chekov and Sam Shepard plays.
Is it normal to make a minute-to-minute schedule for the timing of thanksgiving? I'm asking for a friend.
It's always great to get to do what you love and to do something that hopefully people will see and love.
There are sometimes concerns about being respectful with a gay character, and you either end up with a tiptoeing quality or an all-out cliche.
My mom's brother was gay, and he actually passed away from AIDS when I was 13. He was quite a character, but he also worked at the electrical plant, so he was this complicated guy with a big laugh who would wear a trucker hat and do impressions. He was gay, but to me, Uncle Alan was just the funniest person in the world.
I think there's almost nothing that I won't, sadly, do for a laugh. It's a problem, actually.
My parents are both super funny, and I always knew I wanted to be on 'SNL.' My mom and I would watch it a lot.
