WELL, THIS WEEK I GOT TO BE IN
SPONGEBOB'S TENTH ANNIVERSARY SPECIAL
AT NICKELODEON.
MY OLD PAL, TOM KENNY, WAS THE STAR, OF COURSE, HE IS SPONGEBOB. I LOVE TOM, A WONDERFUL GUY, ALWAYS FUN TO TALK TO - HE KNOWS ALL THE OLD MOVIES, ALL THE COMEDY HEROES, ALL KINDS OF GREAT TRIVIA. HE IS ALWAYS FUN TO WORK WITH.
WELL, I HAD EXACTLY ONE LINE AND I WAS PAID SCALE! BUT I DID IT BECAUSE OF TOM AND BECAUSE I LOVE TO WORK. I JUST DO ONE QUICK BIT OF SHTICK. BUT YOU KNOW WHAT? I HAD SUCH A FUN TIME. EVERYONE WAS SO NICE, FRIENDLY- I HAD A FUN TIME DOING MY BRIEF LITTLE BIT.
ROBIN WILLIAMS WILL BE IN IT, PLUS TINA FEY, AND A GREAT BASKETBALL HERO OF MINE, LeBRON JAMES. NO, I DIDN'T ACTUALLY GET TO MEET ANY OF THESE TALENTED PEOPLE, I WAS ONLY THERE FOR A FEW HOURS. BUT TECHNICALLY, I AM IN A SHOW WITH ROBIN WILLIAMS - AND THE OTHERS. I REGRET NOT GETTING TO MEET THEM, BUT LIKE I SAY, IT WAS FUN.
ANYWAY, SPONGEBOB'S TENTH ANNIVERSARY SPECIAL WILL AIR IN NOVEMBER, I THINK THEY SAID. THESE PEOPLE WERE SO NICE THEY EVEN OFFERED TO GIVE ME A CUE CARD FOR MY ONE LINE. THEY KNEW I LIKE TO ACT USING CUE CARDS.
I SAID: EVEN I CAN REMEMBER ONE LINE.
I HOPE THEY KEEP IN MY BRIEF SHTICK. THE SMALLER THE ROLE YOU HAVE IN ANY PROJECT, THE EASIER IT IS TO CUT YOU OUT - YOU ARE MORE DISPENSABLE.
ONE OTHER BIT OF TRIVIA: THIS IS THE ONLY TIME I HAVE EVER BEEN ON CAMERA WITHOUT WEARING MAKE-UP. IT WAS SO QUICK, I WAS CHATTING WITH THE MAKE-UP GIRLS, BUT FOR SOME REASON, I NEVER GOT MADE-UP AND NO ONE CARED
