Not trying to be mean, but out of all of the Friends, Matt LeBlanc has aged the worst of the six. Case in point, yesterday when he was on Live with Kelly and Ryan, he shared a story with them about a fan encounter. A boy, around 13, ran up to him and said, “OMG! Are you? You are Joey’s dad?” All the actor could do was say to the teen is, “Scram!” Although, I am sure secretly inside he was crying all the way to the bank.
BTW is just me or are he and Matthew Broderick morphing into one person?
Before he was Mother F*cking Samuel L Jackson action star, he starred in his aunt’s production of The Nutcracker as the Sugar Plum Fairy. Hard to believe? Yes, and sadly there is not photographic proof that it happened. We just have to take his word for it.
He also told Kelly Ripa and Ryan Seacrest how he got into ballet today on Live with Kelly and Ryan. It was not that he wanted to be the next great ballet star, it was because his aunt was a dance teacher who had not boys in her class. Thus, he was the go-to male. I am sure that is something he did not mind when puberty kicked in.
Now, that we know he was trained in ballet when are we going to Snakes in Swan Lake? The dancers have to pirouette their way to safety from the Mother F*cking snakes. Actually, can you curse in ballet? If not, then it cannot be done.
Before there was High School Musical, there was a brand new singing competition show on the air called American Idol. A young Vanessa Hudgens watched the then Fox show and was like I am going to be on it. But then she got the job of a lifetime and that dream was over. Not that she did bad for herself. Maybe even better than if she did do it.
What makes this tidbit even better is Hudgens told this story to Ryan Seacrest on Live with Kelly and Ryan. She told the host that she was 14 or 15 when the show that made him a household star debuted. His face when she told him that was perfect! Well for us, for him it was painful.
Emma Bunton was on Live with Kelly and Ryan yesterday and the hosts wanted to know how the Spice Girls got their start.
The singer told them that her music teacher in college was her there was a group of girl who were looking for another member. She told her mom, who then drove her to the train station to meet the girls. They got along so well, that five of them would meet up at her mom’s and rehearse in her living room. In fact, when they were out on the road, Mrs. Bunton would make them sandwiches to eat on the way. How sweet?
I think we can all agree that is how she got her name Baby Spice.
Ryan Seacrest is a huge idol because of American Idol, but those were not the fans that were all over him. Instead, it was a bunch of cute puppies who could stop licking and jumping on the host, and he loved every single second of it. In turn, we love every second of watching him getting tons of love from his arfdorbale admirers.
