Iamkevinhart682 karma
Seth Rogen and myself are really good friends. We started out in the business together, so he was calling friends for favors, he wanted me to do a cameo and I agreed. It was a funny cameo; he explained the premise to me and I agreed.

Kevin, when you hang out with Shaq, does he constantly knee you in the back of the head on purpose?
shat_in_my_pants346 karma
Are you going to play in the NBA celebrity game again next year? Any stat predictions?
Iamkevinhart943 karma
You DAMN right I am! And I probably am going to have 57 points, 67 rebounds and 72 assists!
Iamkevinhart771 karma
In Atlantic City, when a guy threw a buffalo wing at my face. I took it to the cheek, and wiped a little sauce off.
codes107283 karma
KEVIN! I just saw This is The End and loved it. Did you enjoy kicking Aziz Ansari in the face?
Iamkevinhart362 karma
It's hard to pick just one, because that was one of my closest friends. I can't just pick just one because he was so close, the memories that I have of him would just take this whole AMA over.
TheDuskDragon212 karma
What's up Kevin Hart! Thanks for doing an AMA!
Would you ever consider stepping away from comedy and taking on a serious role in a TV show or movie?
Iamkevinhart380 karma
Right now, I'm enjoying stand-up comedy and I'm enjoying comedic acting or comedic roles within acting. When the time comes for me to be serious, I will DEFINITELY pursue that path in my career, but right now I'm enjoying being funny. And you're welcome!
pezisdead115 karma
No need to if you don't want to and are enjoying what you're doing. Just saying thank you for bringing laughter to our household. The best of luck to you and we look forward to seeing you in more movies : P
wdk68189 karma
How short are you? Drew Brees is supposedly 6 feet tall, but we all know that's a lie. So really, how short are you?
wiffleball_lgnd157 karma
I think we all have the same question here: When is the Chocolate Droppa EP dropping?
Scabdates155 karma
What are some of your all-time or current favorite bits by comedians other than yourself?
Iamkevinhart504 karma
Eddie Murphy's rant about his day. Richard Pryor's joke about the monkey fucking him in the air. Bill Cosby's joke about his wife and kids. Dave Chapelle's joke about the little baby that was selling weed, that was pretty funny too. Just to name a few.
islanders888127 karma
Kevin, what nba player would you compare yourself with? And is the cast of "this is the end" the funniest cast you have ever worked with?
mr5424116 karma
when you were filming modern family, how was catching up with Sofia Vergara?
Iamkevinhart222 karma
She's amazing, she's beautiful and she's talented. I also worked with her on Soul Plane.
roxie1127111 karma
When you were younger did you use your comedic talents to stay out of trouble?
Iamkevinhart237 karma
Yes! That's the best thing about being funny. It keeps you out of trouble. When you can't fight, you can make people laugh.
DNAhelicase96 karma
I love your stand-up shows, and actually just spent the weekend with friends constantly quoting lines from the section of your routine about your dad, the spelling bee and how he never wore underwear under his sweats. Can't count how many times, when asked to spell something, the first thing that came to mind is "Spell Loong Dick.... L-O-Diiiiiick, alright, alright, alright!!!!" hahahahaha
Anyway, what is your favorite joke from your routines and which movie was the most enjoyable to do? (I personally loved your scene in 40yr old virgin when you're asking for a free extended warranty).
Thanks for doing the AMA, keep on killin it on the comedy scene!
aww-yeah82 karma
What celebrities do you pal around with in your spare time? I mean people you consider real friends, like bail you out of jail friends.
Iamkevinhart162 karma
Well, I don't consider my real friends celebrities, so that's a difficult question to answer.
madbadger8980 karma
What is your favorite bit to tell? Like, when you start communicating it to the audience, what makes you have to control your laughter?
Iamkevinhart203 karma
My joke about the bum flicking my lip is really hard to get through right now. It makes me laugh.
UUvis69 karma
Hey, Kev! Great to see You here. My question - what is the chance to see You performing in Northern Europe? No doubt that I would visit any country near Baltic States to see Your show. Thanks dude, You are the best! Shout out from Latvia. P.S. Can't wait to see "Let Me Explain"
Iamkevinhart146 karma
Well, I just performed in London, Oslo, Sweden, Amsterdam - just to name a few. I plan on returning within a year. Shoutout to Latvia!
808breakdown69 karma
Thank for doing this AMA Kevin. My question is, what has been your most awkward run in with a fan? I'm sure people yelling to you about their long dick happens frequently.
Iamkevinhart161 karma
I had a woman that might have been about 50-60 years old run up and kiss me on the mouth. I was shocked. Her name was Casey. And people quote at me all the time.
NUMBNUTS_COCAINE60 karma
Hey Kevin Hart! I was wondering, will we ever get to see your uncle Ritchie Jr in one of your stand-up comedy shows?
Iamkevinhart149 karma
i wish - I don't know where my Uncle Ritchie Jr is, because he just disappeared!
CeleronX60 karma
You make a lot of jokes about how small you are, and how because of that you try to stay out of physical altercations. My question is Have you ever actually gotten into a fight? Have you ever "won" a fight?
andoutcomethewolves56 karma
Any chance we hear more out of Chocolate Drop soon?
Also, I just want to say how much I love Real Husbands of Hollywood. Definitely think it's one of the more underappreciated shows on TV these days.
Iamkevinhart111 karma
Well, Chocolate Drop will definitely be resurfacing soon. He's actually in jail in North Dakota. He got locked up for a riot after a concert.
And thank you - REAL HUSBANDs is definitely going well, and I appreciate your support.
Iamkevinhart92 karma
They have a lot of injuries right now. They're out of shape, so they're recouping.
jpatjpatjpat44 karma
Hey Kevin thanks for doing this!
Where is your favorite place to perform at? Also, do you like doing stand-up more or are movies going to become a bigger thing for you?
Iamkevinhart96 karma
I'm always going to be a comedian first, because that's what started me in the entertainment business. My favorite place to perform is Philadelphia, because that's where i started and that's the place that made me. Movies are growth.
GioRivera8139 karma
How do you stay motivated and inspired to continue creating? And not stay complacent? Now and when you were coming up?
Iamkevinhart73 karma
My goals are high, and I want to achieve a lot within the entertainment world, so that is my motivation to continue.
flopotheclown32 karma
Hey Kevin! Because I just started out myself, what was your first stand-up performance like? Thanks!
Iamkevinhart79 karma
In the beginning, a little rough because I didn't know who I wanted to be as a comedian or how to tell jokes in the beginning. I've been doing comedy for 15-16 years and I'm still not comfortable.
fscvatommygundacreep28 karma
When you and your buddies hang out, whats your drink of choice?
germandoerksen26 karma
Kevin Hart! I love your comedy!
Question: Ever thought about doing something with Gabriel Iglesias? aka: fluffy guy?
Also, what do you think or do when people find your stand up offensive? Do you try to please them by toning it down or just say "Say it with yo chest!"?
Thanks again!
Iamkevinhart103 karma
I've done shows with him in the past, I think he's amazing and he's a good friend, so yes.
When people find my comedy offensive, I say it with my chest.
lcantu112121 karma
Kevin thanks for doing this! Love your shows! My question is, would you ever consider doing a family friendly show of your childhood adventures for kids? Also, would you ever consider writing books for children? I'm a teacher, and I think your funny ways of telling stories would inspire so many kids to read!
BlackoutMurray20 karma
Kevin, huge fan of the show room husbands of Hollywood, but I have a question: is this show a spoof on reality TV (like real housewives of Atlanta) or is it satirical to make fun of what we call for entertainment. Or this completely something else... (And my thinking too much into what it is?)
Also 15 min late?! CP time man c'mon.
Iamkevinhart81 karma
You're thinking WAY too much into what it is! It is a mock reality show. We're making fun of all other reality shows. That's why it's called "The fakest reality show ever."
And I'm here now!
NYGiants153218 karma
Kevin, thank you for doing this AMA!
What was the funniest thing that happened on set while filming Let Me Explain? Also 3rd MVP at the NBA All-Star Game, I think so!
Iamkevinhart36 karma
Well, because it's a documentary and a concert film, I'd have to go with the actual concert. YUP! Without a doubt!
Ima_Grab_Yo_Snatch18 karma
Are you ever going to return to Modern Family? You're hilarious on it!
Iamkevinhart38 karma
the more shows you do, the easier it is to stop getting nervous. Keep at it!
verbalsoze13 karma
Hey Kevin, I don't have a question. Just wanted to tell you I think you're funny in everything and you make it look so effortless, but you were absolutely hilarious in 'Think Like A Man'. Who the hell shits with a hat on anyways? Hahaha.
bayls12312 karma
Hi Kevin, you make me laugh :) But tell us a story when being funny got you into trouble!
Iamkevinhart49 karma
If I were to respond, I'd be telling you the story of my life, and we don't have enough time for that.
joedel3117 karma
Big fan Kevin! Would you rather fight 100 duck sized horses or a horse sized duck?
Iamkevinhart35 karma
Okay. I guess I would go with one horse-sized duck. I can't believe I'm saying that.
Iamkevinhart28 karma
I come up with all my skits / jokes originally, so I don't have this one.
Meth_Damon7 karma
Who would your dream team of celebrities be to play with in the NBA celebrity game?
jorfon2 karma
what was your favorite part of filming your new movie? I'm so excited to see it.
Iamkevinhart6 karma
The introduction and the fire. I had a lot of fire while I was onstage.
notProfCharles2 karma
Kev,thanks for doing the AMA. What advice can you give to someone who wants to break into standup but is terrified of bombing.
Frajer453 karma
How did you wind up in This Is The End?
