I ate until I got sick.

I feel more people can relate to the D-list than the A-list.
I think I love Montreal more than Montreal loves me... I love the food there.
This is when Casper Van Dien gets to have his moment in the sun.
I was down there with her, ... We were F-list friends.
I apologize in my real life all the time. I say ridiculous things, I make mistakes constantly. But when I'm on stage, I'm at a microphone... it's a joke!
