I get very nervous around famous people and I get nervous around beautiful women.
Exploitation films were famous for taking an issue an exploiting it because they could move much faster than a studio could. If there was any hot topic they would run out and make a quick movie and make a buck on it by changing it around and using it in some way to give some relevance.
I didn't know what to expect from a famous movie star maybe that he'd be sort of stuck-up you know. But not Gary Cooper. He horsed around so much... that I had a hard time painting him.
But I didn't ask to have somebody nose around in my private life. I didn't even ask to be famous. All I asked was to be able to earn a living making people laugh.
One thing about being famous is the people around you you pay all their bills so they very rarely disagree with you because they want you to pick up the check.
What I've learned is that you really don't need to be a celebrity or have money or have the paparazzi following you around to be famous.
I'm not comfortable being around too many people. I don't like being out in public too much. I don't like going to bars. I don't like doing celebrity stuff. So most of the characters I play are people who don't always feel comfortable beyond their small circle of friends.
I have no use for people who throw their weight around as celebrities or for those who fawn over you just because you are famous.
Anybody who is running a marathon or doing a walkathon doing a fundraiser for their school their company by far it's guaranteed the easiest and most fun way to quickly set up a fundraising campaign and send it around to your friends and family.
It is from the progeny of this parent cell that we all take our looks we still share genes around and the resemblance of the enzymes of grasses to those of whales is in fact a family resemblance.
