[@alyssaaguirre8233]

"Gosh Helen, well sometimes I hate what people wear, but I use my inside voice" I lost it! 😂👌

[@Mf7d89]

"Ok Sheep"...haha loved that he called them out.

[@JennieKerfuffle]

"Yew were a hater, now yew're a loverrr." omfg

[@kiwiandpapayaqueens]

He sounds and acts SO different from Eli Gold! That proves just how good an actor he is!

[@mangosprout3336]

His accent is everything. Oh and he's too adorable

[@wanderlust1334]

Is that Irish?

[@robertaandersone2363]

[@PoojaDeshpande84]

He is just so unbelievably good in The Good Wife!!!! I just love him.

[@sybaritesphynx8057]

Eli is everything!!!!!

[@newsgirl132]

Made me laugh when he said "ok sheep..."

[@maylightbewithyou]

newsgirl132 I know so funny

[@anrina]

"Crocs, Uggs, Jessica Simpson..." LMAO. God, Alan Cumming is funny and entertaining. So happy I got to see him in Cabaret and very sad that today was its last day on Broadway.

[@333br]

Lucky human.

[@artgallery7376]

Why this guy promotes his book?? People telling me that its very rude to come on someones show, facebook inbox etc to promote or offer my product, even though they like my product.

[@Rebecca-iy1ui]

I love his accent!

[@stinaisawriter]

Alan Cumming is everything good in life.

[@SuperAuthoritah]

Get rid of Alan in that sentence and you will have good point.

[@owengodfrey9691]

You went there

[@SuperAuthoritah]

v0ne MonsteR LOLOLOLOL

[@thejanusproject32]

It's pretty intense how he sounds on the goodwife and his other roles compared to his normal voice when he isn't in character. He is artistic, a hell of an actor and no doubt a perfectionist when it comes to his roles, or I could be wrong he is just a natural. Only thing I can say about Alan is... He was born to act.

[@wideawake5630]

Yes! And sing!

[@ellishamckenna]

This man would be an amazing best friend

[@sybaritesphynx8057]

Omggg yasss I like to pretend he is my BFF for life!

[@TomHawthorneJr]

To kill somebody in there sleep!!!! You are scary!!!

I've hung out with him at club cumming before. He is really sweet and funny!

[@TheZurul]

you really want to be best friends with a 50 year old man?

[@Escapeplan4ever]

I laughed my ass off when he referred to the audience as sheep LMAO

[@caitieguttry]

I absolutely adore Alan Cumming.

[@gerharddj200]

[@HowboutNo]

Sir_Lance_A_lot deep

[@janrosama]

what do you like about allan cumming?

[@Roadman1000]

This man is 50? He looks like he is at most in his late 30's.

[@belulopezchamba]

Oh wow, his accent it's so trong! I'm really impressed at how he manages to mask it so well in The Good Wife.

[@alydematti]

Alan is such an adorable person. Love his personality!

[@diegoeme1]

Adrien Brody face + robert downey jr face = Alan Cumming

[@TogetherAtLast]

LMAO "okay sheep" IM DEAD.

[@ImCNDA]

Is that the guy from spy kids?

[@nailin18]

oLinger Yes, and Golden Eye and X2 and The Good Wife ...

[@thesuperframe]

AND... Nightcrawler from X-MEN 2

[@djurofaca]

[@mirkecWii]

[@sakitrain7766]

Alan just gives me life. Love this guy

[@nailin18]

I love this man, he's awesome.

[@Xomacy]

we need to protect this man with everything

[@JacobHermansen88]

After seeing this, I now realise how great an actor he is. I have only ever seen him in The Good Wife. And I would never have expected this was his real personality.

[@willscottsmith8360]

I’ve only ever seen him in Spy Kids, and I never knew he had an accent. He pulled off the American accent perfectly

[@maggiee.3297]

This is really random but I feel like Alan Cumming would be a really fun uncle...

[@starbucksmocha88]

OMG His accent!!!? Shocked me cause I'm used to watching him as Eli!

[@Kakemonster1898]

He's so different from Eli Gold, it's crazy!

[@aposynagwgos]

Oh Jimmy actually laughed for real this time

[@MehOMy]

I could listen to him talk for hours! Love him!

[@HalloMoose]

he would have played the perfect Joker!!

[@luxolomuthwa8045]

HalloMoose "Oh dearie me"...I like that idea

[@luxolomuthwa8045]

HalloMoose "Oh dearie me"...I like that idea

[@DamirSecki]

WOW... what a great actor he is... I hoped couple of seasons back on "the Good Wife" he would get more space coz he was generating some huge traction and Eli was such a great character and he was doing such a great job... and they put a break on it... such a shame.... but to see him in more real life setting.... with his natural voice tone and scottish accent... wow, just wow.

[@noahroangoldwing]

I’m straight, but, DAMN, Alan is gorgeous! Gorgeous voice, gorgeous look for his age, and a gorgeous personality!

[@denisesevierfries]

2:03 mark when Jimmy starts laughing...so cute. Love his belly laugh!

[@islandgirl1818]

He's an amazing actor.

[@jesse85]

Crocs are so underrated, I wear them almost every day.

[@daniloveljkovic8889]

I still remember this guy as Floop from Spy Kids.

[@mustardsfire22]

I'm with Alan, Crocs are awesome!

[@wideawake5630]

Inside voice. Lol I love Alan to pieces!

[@theycallmeabs50]

Crocs, Uggs, Jessica Simpson... I WAS DYING!!!

[@samyukthamahadevan6811]

The way he says "Crocs, uggs, Jessica Simpson" sounds a lot like Stefon from SNL haha

[@irishandirie]

I'm so happy he said this. I love them too Alan😊

[@nonchalant5315]

"I use my inside voice" good come back

[@leandrodude]

So glad I got to see this in January

[@excuseme1543]

OMG OMG OMG his accent. His "Eli Gold" on The Good Wife is amazing

[@annaliceaga4807]

I will ALWAYS ADMIRE AND LOVE THIS MAN. The very best

[@autumnmanes1682]

[@chianhle2999]

Omg finally there's someone who loves crocs like me I'm like crying right now

[@isabelladurilee4911]

His voice and accent are so different in real life. an really amazing actor.

[@ananyaneralla5382]

He is so cute!!!!! I mean look at his smile!!!! Adorable!

[@CaviteChe]

Would be interesting to see Alan Cummings and Paul Reubens together on a project. Considering how similar they look!

[@yurapineroscastro]

[@an.dr.16561]

This guy is owesome and I love his accenr

[@alexiawesterterp9785]

I love Alan so much, ugh.

[@comedian416]

When I see him I think of Night crawler from x-men and Boris from Golden eye. Alan cumming your amazing dude!

[@frankiedeans7637]

He makes us proud to be Scottish

[@JamieC443WirelessTaxIsTheft]

My dad grew up along side him in school 🙌

[@miltonm1215]

[@zareena.2674]

When he said Jessica Simpson I fucking lost it 😂😂

[@mawlpn]

Made me so happy this interview i love u allan cummings

[@EarwenUndomiel]

I love this guy! He's hilarious!

[@6a66y69]

When I was younger, I thought that Mr Floop on spy kids was played by Paul Reubens (plays Pee wee Herman) and I was freaked out lol. :/

[@eriksic]

HE IS INVINCIBLE!

[@MrJambot]

I can't believe this guy is Australian - his American accent is amazing!!!

[@LachlanMorris]

He's not Australian, you dumb-ass. He's Irish or Scottish.

[@MrJambot]

Lachlan Morris Seems like you're not sure. Delicious irony.

[@rahala89]

MrJambot He's Scottish! We are very proud of him :)

[@LachlanMorris]

MrJambot yeah, but im a lot fuckin closer than you were.

[@MrJambot]

+NowhereFC _ don't be so hard on yourself man

[@EarwenUndomiel]

I love Alan's accent!

[@hemmojito]

I love how he puts Helen Mirren in her spot in a kind of uppety fashion

[@VelvetGal5]

Alan Cumming's great & delightful! :-) This video clip put a smile on my face! :-) I never had a chance to see Alan Cumming on "Cabaret" or on Broadway. :-( I've seen many of his movies & TV work though! I'm like Alan Cumming. I'm not ashamed to say that I love Crocs, too. I have many pairs of Crocs. I think Crocs and Sanuk brand shoes are the comfiest shoes to wear. I like wearing comfortable shoes. So, yeah, I own many Crocs, and like Alan Cumming, I really don't care what some people think. I also sometimes wear Scrunchies for my ponytails & hair buns, too. I like to follow fashion trends, but I'm also not a slave to fashion. If I feel comfy wearing something, I'll wear it! I'm glad Helen Mirren likes Crocs, too. I still remember Alan Cumming as Nightcrawler in "X-Men 2" and for his role in "Goldeneye", one of the James Bond movies. Happy Belated 50th Birthday to Alan Cumming! :-) I've watched the movie "Death Becomes Her" with Meryl Streep, Goldie Hawn, and Bruce Willis's character, and Bruce Willis's character is eulogized in the film, and the preacher was saying that Bruce Willis's character believed & said that "Life Begins at 50" after his experience with Goldie Hawn, Meryl Streep, and Hollywood's undead and unnatural aging & beauty experiences. So, yeah, I'll always remember that. Alan Cumming looks good for being aged 50!

[@vishwanathstorm]

We need a 'night crawler' x-men movie starring Alan!!! He was awesome!!!

[@bielsabas4407]

this made my day

[@HurricaneSavi]

I love him so much.

[@no_peace]

I love my Crocs. I try not to wear them in public but they're so useful for housework and camping and going in and out of the house

[@laughingallthetime50]

I love his accent. I don't even care what he's saying. Just love the accent!

[@amberotl5276]

I recognized that face from Spy Kids, Floop.

[@liluhaas]

he's so pretty hehe

[@mkimm1]

When he listed "Crocs, Uggs, Jessica Simpson..." it sounded like a bit from Stefon

[@DaM7519]

(Using my inside voice...) Crocs are not attractive but the comfort is unbeatable. No substitute. :)

[@eolsunder]

simply amazing that hes 50, he does really look 30 years old and young, not even close to 50.

[@lynnbayley7067]

i had no idea he was irish! lol i loved him in spy kids lol.

[@lynnbayley7067]

hehehe I am of both lines lol and I was being sarcastic lol XD

[@Miaew]

I had no idea he was Australian, magosh, I loved him in Y-men!

[@anthonytouchton4844]

[@NiGHTSaturn]

Crocs, Uggs... JESSICA SIMPSON HAHAHAHA

[@PlacidSine]

[@Schmeichel4ever]
