South Park, but I claim Stewie Griffin, too.

14. You have an entire day to do whatever you want. What would you do?

18. The last movie you saw in a theater?

The Hateful Eight 70 mm.

19. Who was your first celebrity crush?

Michael J. Fox, and it hurt…. it hurt so bad. I was around 10 years old I dreamt about him. Kylie Minogue’s smash hit “I Should Be So Lucky” was number one in the charts in England, playing on the radio constantly, and it fueled my aching fantasy. I was on holiday with my parents, staying in a remote little village in The Lake District. We had driven past a little shop and, from the car, I saw a new magazine in the window with MJF on the cover. I trekked the two miles back, in secret, alone through the farm land to get to the newsagents and get my hands on it. And it was totally worth it.

20. What would you cook if Nic Cage was coming to your house for dinner?

I live in New York. My apartment barely has a kitchen. But, instead, I could play him Kylie Minogue songs… because I know they did a record together once. That could naturally segue into the thrilling “first crush” aforementioned Michael J. Fox story. By then, I’m sure he’d be chomping at the bit to get outta there. Problem solved, no cooking necessary.
