Quote
1 (2010, on landing Big) Penny Marshall gave me the part in Big. She goes, “You can improvise again.” So I get on set and I start trying to improvise and she goes, “No, you can’t do that.” I said, “Penny, the part’s nothing. You said I could.” She said, “I know, but the writers don’t want you to.” I go, “Then what am I here for?” She didn’t want me to do anything-just play it totally straight. I go, “Crap. I’ll just be subtly funny. I’ll sneak it in.” And later on she goes, “See, that’s why I said that. So you would do that.” I worked on it for about a week, and one day I said, “Listen, I feel really sick. I think I’m going to throw up.” She goes, “All right, well, try.” We’re doing a scene, and in the middle they go, “Cut,” and I ran and threw up. I said to her, “I can’t work anymore.” I was sick as shit. So I went home, and I had the flu bad for about a week. And then I felt better, and I thought, “Maybe I should call her up and tell her I’m feeling better, see if she wants to put me back into the movie.” But then I thought, “Ah, forget it! The part was nothing.” And then it turns out to be this huge hit, and I’m like, “I’m an idiot.”
2 (2010, on Trapped in Paradise) Well, I feel like I’m very fortunate to be in movies at all, but I called it Trapped In Shit. I love Dana Carvey, and Nicolas Cage was great and we became friends, but the director [George Gallo] just wasn’t there. He wasn’t directing. It was a bad time in my life personally, because my father had just died Dec. 25. And I’m up in the snow with no light-we did night shoots for six weeks. It was like 25-below. Everyone was fine, but after six weeks, the whole crew started going crazy ’cause there’s no light. It really affects your mood. Then we moved to Toronto, so we’re shooting inside. It wasn’t fancy, but inside during the day, this was a luxury. It was like 31 degrees, but it felt like summer. So as soon as I worked during the daylight, my mood changed… But the director would say, “Just do whatever you want.” He was bragging about what a great director he was before he hired us: “I’m as good as Rob Reiner and Martin Scorsese.” This is George Gallo. I said, “Don’t you think you should let other people say that?” We never even got to read the script. He’d go, “Well, let’s rehearse this.” I’d go, “Oh good, we get to rehearse.” And he’d start screaming at me, “Do whatever you want!” And I go, “Saying ‘do whatever you want’ is not direction.”
3 (2010, on Happiness) Todd Solondz was trying to decide if I would play that part or the part that Philip Seymour Hoffman played. I met with him once to talk about it. I didn’t think I got it, and then five months after that meeting, they said he wanted me to play that scene. Here’s the thing about that scene: It’s very, very well written. A lot of times I get a scene, it’s not very well written, and they’ll say to me, “Can you add jokes? You’ve got to punch it up.” And I don’t mind doing that, but I kind of do, because I want to say, “Would you do your job? You didn’t hire me to write the thing. Come on.” This thing, though, was like Shakespeare. It’s hard, because now you have to raise yourself to the level of the writing. It’s like playing an easy piano piece like “Chopsticks” or playing Tchaikovsky-or Liszt or George Gershwin. It’s fantastic, and it’s very hard to play. I think it’s a brilliant scene, but I don’t take credit for it. It’s like some guy wrote a great musical piece and goes, “Can you play it?” That scene is really funny and really sad at the same time, and it goes back and forth. It was hard to do-and it was hard to do because my character breaks down and cries. That’s in the scene. It goes, “Breaks down and cries.” So I had to cry all day for 12 hours, and I kept thinking of more and more sad stuff. Then it wouldn’t work and I’d try something else. At first I’m crying about the scene. Then I’m thinking about a girl leaving me. Then I’m thinking about my dad-who’s dead-waving to me. On and on, trying to make myself cry. By the end of the day I was exhausted, and then I was depressed for like two weeks. Because it’s not real, but physically you’re crying for 12 hours. Even though you’re making it up, you’re still doing it. Your body doesn’t know that it’s not real. Imagine for 12 hours-or even for 10 minutes-you have to cry and cry. It was hard… Everyone goes, “What’s Todd Solondz like?” And I say, “Well, if Penny Marshall and Woody Allen had a kid, it’d be Todd.”
4 (2010, on Tales from the Crypt in the episode “Top Billing”) That was really fun. John Astin and Bruce Boxleitner were in it. I remember Joel Silver was producing the series and he asked me to do it. I had the lead, and when you have the lead, it’s fun. I was playing a struggling actor, and it wasn’t that long after I’d been struggling-maybe five years. I remember thinking, “I have to lose some weight. I’m too fat! I don’t look like a struggling actor.” I weighed 145 in high school; when I was in New York, when I was 24, I weighed 136 pounds. I didn’t have much money to eat.
5 I like getting up in front of an audience. It’s fun when you go to a baseball game and the crowd is cheering you. I can’t deny it. And it’s very funny, too. Sometimes you’re shy; you go somewhere and everyone’s looking at you, so you feel a little self-conscious.
6 At a certain point, if you work really hard and you get good and people like your work, you do deserve the fame — but you shouldn’t take it for granted.
7 [about his portrayal of Harvey Fierstein on Saturday Night Live (1975), and Fierstein’s response to it] I did Harvey Fierstein. He didn’t like it. He came in to the show to complain about it. His point was that he was getting more famous as me than as him . . . He came in to talk about it and, watching him, I realized that I was doing him quite well. He thought I was doing a gay stereotype.
8 [To Conan O’Brien] I heard you call me immature earlier. Well, you’re just a big poop-head.

Jeff Gordon net worth: Jeff Gordon is an American former professional NASCAR racing driver, currently an announcer for Fox NASCAR, and a top executive for Hendrick Motorsport. As of this writing, Jeff Gordon’s net worth is $200 million dollars. He is one of the highest-paid NASCAR drivers of all time, having earned over $500 million in winnings and endorsements. Early Life:  Jeff Gordon was born on August 4, 1971,  in Vallejo, California to parents Carol Ann and William. He has an older sister named Kim. Gordon’s mother and father divorced when he was six months old. His mother remarried in the 1970s to a man named John Bickford. Gordon started racing his BMX bike he received from his stepfather when he was five years old. By the time he was the ripe old age of six, he had won 35 main events and set five track records. In 1979, when he was eight, he won 51 races. When he was 11, he won all 25 races he entered. Then he got bored with that and took up waterskiing. That only lasted a year and in 1986, he started racing sprint cars and won three races. Gordon graduated from Tri-West Hendricks High School in Indiana in 1989. He was on the high school cross country team. Career: Jeff won the Winston Cup (now Sprint Cup) Championship in 1995, 1997, 1998, and 2001. In the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series, Jeff has over 90 wins and more than 445 top tens. In the Nationwide Series, he has more than five wins with 32 top-ten finishes. Gordon got his start in professional racing in the Busche Series. He started full time racing in the 1993 NASCAR Winston Cup Series. He won the Daytona 500 in 1997, 1999, and 2005. His 93 career wins land him at third on the all-time Winston Cup wins list, which is the most in NASCAR’s modern era from 1972 to the present. His 81 pole positions make him the leader of all active drivers. He holds a NASCAR record with at least one pole position in 23 consecutive seasons. He is considered to be one of the best NASCAR drivers of all time by a number of outlets and fans of the sport. Jeff endorses Gillette, Pepsi, DuPont, Sunoco, and many other brands. Jeff also has an equity stake in his racing team and is the first driver ever to earn over $100 million in earnings from the Cup series. Gordon announced that 2015 would be his last season as a full-time driver although he did not rule out retiring from the sport altogether. He served as a substitute driver for Dale Earnhardt Jr. in 2016. In 2017 he was the overall winner at the 2017 Rolex 24 at Daytona. He formerly drove the No. 24 Chevrolet for Hendrick Motorsports in 23 full-time NASCAR Sprint Cup Series seasons between 1993 and 2015, and served as a substitute driver for Dale Earnhardt Jr. in the No. 88 Hendrick Motorsports Chevrolet in select races during the 2016 season. Personal Life: In 1993 Gorden met Brooke Sealey, a Miss Winston Cup model at the Daytona Speedway after he won two qualifying races for the Daytona 500 that year. They had to date secretly because there are rules in NASCAR against drivers dating the models. Sealey finished her reign as Miss Winston Cup at the end of the 1993 season. The couple then went public with their relationship. A year to the day from their meeting, Gordon proposed to her. They married on November 26, 1994. About five and a half years later, Sealey filed for divorce and alleged that Gordon had taken place in marital misconduct, specifically his relationship with another model named Deanna Merryman. Gordon and Sealey’s divorce was final in June 2003. In 2004, he started dating Ingrid Vandebosch. They got engaged in June 2006 and married in a private ceremony in Mexico on November 7, 2006. Vandebosch gave birth to their first child, a daughter named Ella Sofia in June 2007.  In August 2010, she had the couple’s son, Leo Benjamin. Gordon is a born again Christian. He keeps Bible verses taped to the steering wheel of his race car. Gordon is a major philanthropist. He set up the Jeff Gordon Children’s Foundation in 1999. The foundation is a pediatric cancer foundation benefiting families and kids with cancer. In December 2006, he opened the Jeff Gordon Children’s Hospital in Concord, North Carolina. Gordon also was instrumental in the founding of Athletes For Hope, a charitable organization founded by a number of professional athletes including Andre Agassi, Cal Ripken Jr, and Tony Hawk to help pro athletes get involved in charitable causes. Salary Highlights: Jeff Gordon earns an estimated $20 – $30 million every year from salary and endorsements. Of that income, roughly $20 million comes from endorsements. During his career to date, Jeff Gordon has earned over $160 million in on-track winnings. His total career earnings all-sources included tops $520 million. Gordon’s net worth is probably lower than many of his fans might expect. This can be attributed to Jeff’s divorce from ex-wife Brooke Gordon. As a settlement, Jeff reportedly paid Brooke over $100 million worth of cash, property, and assets. Brooke was given exclusive rights to the couple’s oceanfront home which is valued at $9 million. She will also receive alimony and has unlimited access to Jeff’s private jets and boats for many years to come. Real Estate: Jeff Gordon, his wife, and kids live in the South Park neighborhood of Charlotte, North Carolina. The home features a billiards room, a bar, a wine cellar, and a pool. There’s even a nearly life-sized playhouse for Gordon’s daughter. In 2013, Gordon sold his 3,454-square-foot New York City apartment overlooking Central Park for $30 million.
