More quotes by Billy Eichner
A lot of people in Hollywood, and everywhere pretty much, operate on fear. No one wants to get fired, so everyone's scared to take a chance. There's money involved, and there are careers and reputations on the line.
Billy Eichner
I know is that the response [for Difficult People ] has been really great. I think it's for smart people. I think it's for people who obviously care about pop culture or know about it, even if it's to a fault. I think it's for outsiders.
Billy Eichner
I've had a lot of arguments with people, but it's never really gotten physical.
Billy Eichner
I thought it would be funny to go to my Korean dry cleaner and ask her about my head shot, as if it's the most important thing in the world, and as if it's something that everyone should weigh on because it's important to me.
Billy Eichner
Sometimes you go up to people who look totally normal and then you talk to them for a few seconds and you are like, Oh I better get out of this, because this person is a little mentally unbalanced, and they are not going to get a joke.
Billy Eichner
I like talking to a person who is crazy in a fun, eccentric way. I don't want to talk to a legitimate crazy person, because that's not nice.
Billy Eichner
If someone walks away from me, I just let them walk, and I move on to the next person.
Billy Eichner
I couldn't just get up every day and be miserable and complain.
Billy Eichner
There have been man-on-the-street interviews for years, but insulting people is not that funny to me.
Billy Eichner
If you're just really loud, people just want - will give you what you want just to get you to shut up.
Billy Eichner
When I opened my mouth to sing as a kid, I kind of randomly had a really good singing voice. And so that put me on the actor track and the musicals track.
Billy Eichner
Ironically, my rabbi was a bar mitzvah Nazi. So I got bar mitzvahed. And though I didn't want to, the theme of my bar mitzvah party was Madonna.
Billy Eichner
Facebook is weird. They have all of these seemingly random rules that I'm sure make sense to them, but don't make sense to me or any people.
Billy Eichner
I'm not a big reality show fan, because I just think it's too fake.
Billy Eichner
I have a very vivid memory.
Billy Eichner
Award shows are fun, but completely arbitrary and absurd. And yet, I will watch every single one of them.
Billy Eichner
It's one thing to be struggling and not really making money in your early 20s and figuring out your life. Early 30s, you start to wonder, is this ever going to happen?
Billy Eichner
We weren't rich people, but my parents and I shared an interest in the theater and so we went a lot. And that definitely inspired me.
Billy Eichner
I spend the majority of my time in New York and LA. I feel like a large part of my following and my fans are probably in New York and LA because of the work that I do is very New York-LA-centric. So people do recognize me. But it's nothing overwhelming at all.
Billy Eichner
I was very much an only child who was raised by the television and movies, and I grew up in New York. We weren't, like, rich people, but we were middle-class people and my parents supported this love I had for entertainment.
