It's hard for me to even watch comedies I'm in.

I still pinch myself that I ended up in Hollywood. And I am still surprised at the fans.

In high school and college all my friends and my brother wrestled.
horse uncles aunt
I used to be Amish. I had to stay a lot with my grandparents or aunts and uncles who are Amish, so I was sort of partially Amish. When I go back there now I still get into that culture. I can drive a horse and buggy because they don't use cars. And, of course, there's no electricity. I respect them a lot. The Amish like to live a very plain lifestyle, the way they think God intended. It sort of brings you back to like Little House on the Prairie days or something.
laughing people crowds
What I really enjoy the most is seeing what the crowd likes. I enjoy making people laugh.
opportunity careers one-day
I just take it one day at a time. Austin Powers has given me a lot of opportunities as far as my career.
thinking average people
I think when average-size people start taking roles that were meant for dwarfs, that's a little frustrating because there aren't that many roles out there for height-challenged actors.
