I do think comedy needs to be a living thing, but I think without a great script and fully realized characters, you cannot keep it living. Otherwise, it just becomes long and rambling, indulgent. So I think you need both, frankly.
From Melissa McCarthy
I love to watch someone who just goes for it and isn't worried about whether it's silly or awkward or unflattering.
Ben and I live like hermits. The night of a concert, we'll be like, 'Do you think we can get tickets?' And everybody is like, 'No, why didn't you do this earlier?'
Ben and I have absolutely nothing to do with the Hollywood that's all actors and the Sunset Strip. We crave talking to people who do different things and are passionate about it.
When I go shopping, most of the time I'm disappointed.
In terms of the characters I think are really fun to play, a lot of times it's someone in my head saying 'I know that woman.'
I was only a bridesmaid for my sister, and it was very calm and small, so I didn't have any tragedy.
Somebody ripped their pants open at my wedding, dipping my mother. My mother is not a lady who throws herself into a dip that often, so I don't think he thought she was really going to do it.
I would love to be directed by more women.
If somebody's doing something, and you're laughing, and at the same time you're so embarrassed for them, it's my absolute kind of favorite type of laugh.
