I hope he has got over his jet lag. His interview on Rove with Chris Rock was terrible (mind you, Roves dumb questions didn’t help).
Its a shame cause he is one of my favourite comedy actors, but I’m not sure that his sense of humour is as laid back when it comes to interviews.
I agree. I think he was just incredibly tired however it was evident that Chris Rock appeared to be on form and much wittier than Ben Stiller. I think publicists should try to give stars a break after travelling so far rather than cramming their schedules to the point where their interviews/guest appearances are a let down to fans.
I’ve heard Ben Stiller is more of a tortured artist than a comedian. Hence he may not be as extroverted and overtly funny in real life.
I thought the entire Rove entourage looked tired and flat on Sunday - maybe they all were suffering jet lag
You don’t have to be extroverted to be funny. Look at Seinfeld. I think Ben has a good idea of what’s funny on screen. Most of the characters he plays are normal guy’s (not comedians) in “funny” situations, except for zoolander. But really, only his closest friends and family know what he’s really like.
As for Rove…he never interviews well. I don’t think he intends to.
