McLovin – You’re Not An Artist. Stop Trying So Hard. It’s For Your Own Good.
March 11, 2009 – 4:57 am by Michael BeanChristopher Mintz-Plasse, better known as McLovin from the Seth Rogan flick Superbad.
McLovin joined The Junkies on WJFK in Washington D.C. to talk about who the hell knows what, but it turned into a pretty damn awkwardly funny interview provoked by the Junkies.
On getting the role for Superbad, which gave him this 15 minutes of fame and an acting career (for the time being):
“I didn’t have any head shots because I wasn’t acting at the time. So I just took one with my cell phone and sent it in and they liked it, and I went into the audition and they casted me.”
On Paul Rudd being cast in seemingly every other movie:
“People love him. He’s a cutie pie.”
I might have gone with lame, melo-dramatic actor in some admittedly fairly funny movies but nobody asked I suppose.
On what it’s like with the ladies these days:
“I just filmed a movie in London and had a girlfriend there for two months. It’s just easier when you can travel around the world and not just deal with the same 20 girls that live down the street from you.”
After being egged by the Junkies about taking his game to the next level and going after some celebrities, like say, Lindsay Lohan:
“I don’t want to deal with that. It’s not the drama, it’s I don’t want to deal with my bodily fluids after and I don’t even know what’s going to happen to myself after that.”
Oh man. McLovin, you’re killing me. Please, stop talking.
And anyway, she’s taken, though you and Samantha Ronson do look eerily alike.
On the best thing he’s bought for himself – this mind you, is right after he says he’s not a millionaire, but is ‘getting there’:
“A drum set.”
McLovin – not coming to an episode of Cribs any day soon.
