A biography for Pauly Shorehasn’t been written yet.
“I miss that process of getting the script and reading it and working on it. Every actor has their own way of memorizing their lines, and the whole process of starting to work with the other actors and the director, and doing rehearsals, and going to the location, and going through wardrobe.”
“I giggle when I put myself down. It's just funny to me.”
“In my 30s, it wasn't cool to like Pauly Shore movies. It was cool to like them when they came out, then it wasn't cool.”
“'Entourage' is a staple L.A.-based show, and people say it's pretty real, and I thought it was. It's an exaggeration of the truth.”
“I'm into politics - I'm interested in the election and how pissed off people get.”
“I really don't go out every night to red-carpet events.”
“I don't think any of us would be who we are if our parents weren't who they were. People that are in show business, and their parents are not in show business, their parents probably motivated them to get in show business.”
“Few if any teenagers can relate to getting up for school and finding famous comics like Pryor and Williams hanging out in your living room after a hard night of partying. But that's Hollywood.”
“Comedy wasn't something I chose - it chose me. I was just inherently funny when I was a kid.”
“That's the biggest rule in Hollywood: Don't spend your own money.”
“When you work in movies, or on TV shows, there are 50 other people involved. And it's hard, man. They brainwash you to think you're doing the right thing.”
“The public was used to a Pauly Shore film coming out every year or two, you understand? So when that went away, the public lost familiarity with me.”
“Even at my peak, I never went too over the top.”
“Whenever someone dies everyone says, I love that guy, except for Jeffrey Dahmer.”
“My 20s were a time where I made it; my 30s were when I was away, confused, and trying to figure it all out.”
“Everywhere I go, people know who I am.”
“I miss working with great actors, working with great directors.”
“When you deal with a comedian who has a specific act, you can't hold 'em back. You got to work with 'em, dude. What you think, I'm just gonna do what's on the page, say 'yes sir, no sir'? I'm creatively beyond that.”
“I think as a standup performer you have to feel the audience. So the audience kind of dictates what they get, you know?”
“Comedy wasn't something I chose - it chose me.”
