00:00
I was big Power Ranger guy growing up.
00:02
That probably stopped at like nine or ten.
00:03
Nothing wrong with the
fandom that continues
00:07
into later years but that
wasn't what it was for me.
00:09
But yeah, like around seven, eight, nine,
00:11
if you walked into a nineyearold Timmy
00:13
takin' a bath it woulda been
Power Rangers everywhere.
00:17
Favorite Halloween costume in general?
00:18
I did YuGi from YuGiOh
one year when I was 10 or 11.
00:22
YuGiOh was a animated series.
00:24
Not a direct spinoff but it sits
00:26
in the same ecosystem as Pokemon
00:28
and the lead character's a guy named YuGi
00:30
and he has an incredible haircut
00:31
and he wears a cool necklace.
00:33
So when I was 10 or 11, I did that.
00:35
Also, I did SpiderMan
on Broadway one year
00:37
which is good cause
all the SpiderMan guys
00:39
were getting injured on Broadway
00:40
so I got a SpiderMan costume
and I got crutches, too.
00:43
First record I got was at
Tower Records in New York.
00:47
I was like seven or
eight, we were in there
00:49
cause my sister was getting a record
00:51
and my mom went in there with me
00:52
and I picked up 50 Cent's
Get Rich or Die Tryin'
00:55
and it had the parental
advisory sticker on it
00:57
and it was the explicit one.
00:58
I remember my sister
chastizing my mom saying,
01:00
you're gonna let him get
the explicit version?
01:02
And to this day [claps] thank you, Mom
01:04
because there were explicit, explicit
01:08
50 Cent records playing in my bedroom
01:11
from the ages of seven to nine.
01:14
The best, the best, I have the best mom
01:16
in the world, I really mean it.
01:18
So I was out here for the SAG Awards
01:19
and there was like some
random In Style event
01:22
or something, I don't know,
01:23
and I was gonna go in sweatpants.
01:24
You cannot come in sweatpants, ya know,
01:25
this is like a formal thing.
01:27
Shiny black leather pants.
01:29
Shoes I'd probably worn
to prom the year before.
01:32
This rosecolored tie.
01:33
You should see a picture online.
01:34
It's like halfway off,
the top button I think
01:37
was nonfunctional and there's
tomato sauce right here.
01:41
If you see pictures.
01:42
The lesson, as always, is nobody cares.
01:46
No one's looking at these pictures anyway.
01:48
Or those that are, what're you doing
01:49
looking at those pictures?
01:51
But lesson learned.
01:53
Urtle, still my pet.
01:56
Growing up was 43rd and 9th.
01:58
I was on 43rd, it's Hell's Kitchen.
02:00
[Interviewer] So you're
porno name is Yurtle 43rd.
02:05
Wait so yeah, I know that.
02:06
It's your name of your first pet
02:07
followed by the street.
02:11
Urtle 43, yeah, I like that a lot.
02:14
If I showed up for
Urtle 43, it wouldn't be
02:18
like too surprising.
02:19
And what's so cool is going to some
02:20
of these events like last night
02:22
and seeing people that I've really admired
02:24
and gettin' to work with
but nobody's bothering me
02:26
in the street or it's very rare
02:28
that anybody says anything to me.
02:29
And even like last night, I tried
02:31
to get a drink at the bar
before everybody was going in.
02:33
I had been waiting in
line and they closed it
02:35
and this woman was like
let me see your ID,
02:37
are you even 21, like do
you even have a ticket,
02:39
are you even supposed to be here?
02:40
[laughs] So it was very much like a ...
02:41
Ya know which is not normal which is good.
02:45
So uh ... yeah, no idea, I
don't have an answer to that.
02:51
I could be a good mascot.
02:53
I was a mascot for the
middle school basketball team
02:55
cause I couldn't make it so.
02:56
Throw a thing on me and
I could physicalize it
03:00
It is hot, yeah, but at
halftime you could take it off
03:02
and just relax, so if
this whole acting thing
03:06
doesn't work out, I'll call
the Knicks or something.
03:10
Although the Knicks
don't have a mascot, so.
03:12
[Interviewer] You could be the first.
