The Orble Interview with Jerry Seinfeld

November 19th 2007 23:15
Well, to be fair, it wasn't really an interview. More of an interviewette.

I was fortunate enough to get a spot on the red carpet last night at the Australian premiere of Jerry Seinfeld's Bee Movie. There were quite a few celebrity families, bringing their kids for the opening, but I had no idea who they were.

Jerry Seinfeld was kind enough to shake my hand and give me time to ask one question:

Cibbuano: Mr. Seinfeld, what do you say to the legion of boys, like me, that followed in your footsteps, watching you on TV, eating cereal for lunch and dinner, wearing sneakers-

[Jerry looks over at my feet. I am, indeed, wearing sneakers]

-and watching cartoons. Now we've grown up and we've got wives and girlfriends, who don't think that it's suitable to eat cereal for dinner and who don't think that sneakers are appropriate attire - what advice would you give us to reconcile these two sides?

Seinfeld: Well, you gotta change. You gotta take your girl out to a nice restaurant and treat her nice. Find a nice place to eat, put on some decent clothes and treat her well. I mean, look at me!

[gestures to his outfit. He's wearing good shoes.]

I did want to ask him about his opinion on binge-drinking elephants, but he was quickly ushered away.

Thanks to Scott Rhodie from Network PR for getting me the media pass on the carpet!

tracy - I had a camera, but the batteries ran dead. Anyway, I didn't want to start snapping photos. The photographers were getting on my nerves, as were the pushy girls from some magazine.

Damo, thanks! Sarcasm? Ah ,well, it was fun.

Aimz, well, he was promoting the movie so he was extraordinarily friendly and enthusiastic... he leapt across Market st, stopping traffic, to sign autographs and talk to fans.

You know what you should have tried: shooting him with a water gun.

gauge his reaction and compare him to Tom Cruise, that would be interesting.

Nicely done. So when can we expect an interview with Hugh Jackman for Wolverine? And if it's soon, can I operate the camera?

CONGRATS CIBBY!! Very good indeed!
Orbler makes good on red carpet grabs quip from international huge star!!!

Pity you didn't ask him about his 'Melbourne as the arsehole of the world comment', and therefore, what he thought that made Sydney! hehe!

cheers and congrats!

Oh I know what you about those photographers, I had the same trouble when I was at The Transformers premiere. They can be a fierce bunch.

ahmed, these are not good days for a coloured man to walk around with anything that looks like a gun.

mark, jackman was supposed to be at the premiere, but I didn't see him on the carpet.

fog, ooh, I didn't know about that comment. Is that true?

tracy, yeah, I'd rather not deal with that again.

Hi Cibby,

here is the link that spells out the Seinfeld insult to Melburnians...they do not have much of a sense of humour when it comes to bagging their city...and it was "anus of the world"!!

Seinfeld insult

cheers
