9 Real Interviews with Comedians Rarely Seen OUT Of Character

It honestly wasn't until I started seriously looking for Stephen Colbert interviews that I realized I had NEVER seen him out of character. I mean I can't even imagine the focus it takes to do an interview with Big Bill O'Reilly in character. My love affair with Stephen Colbert's wit aside - there are quite a few comedians that blur this line between fiction and reality...Sarah Silverman, Sasha Baron Cohen, Ricky Gervais, so on and so forth - the common denominator being that they're clever as hell and they can get away with saying things in character that normal people can't...cheers. Do enjoy this collection of their best 'out of character' appearances that are entertaining in their own right, but also give good insight into how they feel about their onscreen personas.
