A Night of Funny People

Earlier this week I had the pleasure of attending A Night of Funny People which was a taping of a movie due to premiere July 31, named Funny People. Starring Adam Sandler, Seth Rogen, Leslie Mann, and a million other great comics, including this hilarious guy I had never heard of named Aziz Ansari, the movie will definitely not fall short of a celebrity cast. 

Basically I paid $30 to go to the famous Los Angeles Orpheum Theatre to see awesome comedians act out their parts in the film. I wish that I could have seen Sandler and Rogan out of character, but still, it was a great night. And all of the proceeds benefited multiple sclerosis. 

The actors had to play some pretty raunchy comedians (kinda expected since 
it is a Judd Apatow film--he was the producer of the films The 40 Year Old Virgin, Superbad, Knocked Up, and maaaany others); however, it was all in good fun and we were pre-warned.

That night, surprise comics included David Spade and Sarah Silverman. Also, I spotted Jonah Hill in the audience a few rows down from us. So the place was packed with talent.

I must say that Sandler is always attractive, but so was Rogen. He's my celebrity, "not so thin guy" crush. (Jimmy Kimmel is on that list as well haha!) I don't know why, but I just think that Rogen is rather hot. He has slimmed down, too. That night he joked that he currently looks like a skinny guy that is getting chubby, rather than a chubby guy losing weight.

So, be sure to check out Funny People when it comes out. You just my see me in the audience laughing my ass off!
