Chevy Chase

He prefers to do family-oriented movies, suffers from a
fear of snakes and runs five miles a day to stay fit and
healthy.
He likes it when people enjoy his work, but dislikes the
lack of privacy within show business.

He was sued by Cary Grant for saying that Grant was a
homosexual during a talk show appearance. The case was
settled out of court.

At 6' 4", he was the tallest original cast member of
Saturday Night Live.

He appeared in the music video and sang in the choir on the
song "Voices That Care." He appeared alongside Paul Simon,
who is one of his best friends, in the music video "You Can
Call Me Al," in which he lip-syncs all of Simon's lines.

He was roasted by the New York Friar's Club on September 28,
2002, though the occasion was notable for the near-total
disconnect between the subject's career and the list of
performers who agreed to appear. The televised version was
considered so joyless and leaden that Comedy Central decided
not to re-air the special again.

Chase's fanbase abandoned him, as illustrated by three
consecutive films from his later period: 1991's Nothing But
Trouble, 1992's Memoirs of an Invisible Man, and 1994's Cops
& Robbersons. The three releases grossed a dreary $34
million in the U.S., combined. Even the durable Vacation
series ground to a halt, following the apathy that greeted
1997's Vegas Vacation installment, the only one without the
National Lampoon imprimatur. Some of the more recent movies
starring Chase (i.e. Vacuums, Rent-A-Husband, Goose!) have
not been released in the United States.

I hear he's a real asshole in real life. Like to fans and
stuff. He must be the aphex of comedy.

He was a great comedian back in the day.

Those were the golden years of SNL. Caddyshack also saw a
great preformance!

I'll have to get it on DVD. Not as cool as Caddyshack, but
still a classic.

how old is he ?

e.g. Kevin Bacon is 1958. so old !

it's scary how fast time runs, some good actors grow old and
pass away.

Born October 8, 1943 which makes him 62. He started on SNL
when he was 32. Most of his success was in his late
thirties/early forties.

He was the drummer a couple of times for what he called "a
bad jazz band" - the college band "The Leather Canary". The
band also included Walter Becker and Donald Fagen. That band
became Steely Dan. He has perfect pitch, which is a musical
ability to remember the exact frequency of a note.

al" ? or was it just the funny video ? one of the funniest
videos btw.
