The most difficult thing has definitely been movies. From a comedian's standpoint, you think being real big is the best thing, but with movies, the screen is huge, you're big anyway! Also, coming from a TV personality - MTV was all about high energy and selling the hottest video - I had to learn to take it down. A lot of characters I'm playing are not necessarily that kind of guy.

I think it go serious in college when I found out I really enjoyed making people laugh. It makes me happy. I said, I wanna be a comedian, I wanna get good.' You're not good in the beginning.

I just never gave up and that was the beginning of my career. Just experimenting, trying it out and falling in love with it.
