A.V. Club: You were a DJ at bar mitzvahs. Did you have a signature bit or anything that set you apart?
Paul Rudd: Oh, I did have a signature. I had a dance. It was a tough job. It was mentally kind of taxing, and one time I just lost it. It was the second bar mitzvah of the day, going on hour 15. And I started doing this really spastic dance. I was sitting there, about 22, having to listen to MC Hammer. "Oh God…" So I started dancing like I had some sort of serious mental issue. Just a gross, weird dance. And the kids thought it was funny. And then I started getting hired to do parties, cause I was known as the guy who did this dance. And my boss made a big deal of it. It was just gross. I would do it and feel like Coco in Fame, crying and showing her breasts.

HIGH-larious. I tell you, YOU are my connection to the cool.
Thanks! He is such cuddly hilarity. I totally want to see the dance too. There has to be a home video of it somewhere...
