Jim Parsons interview, part 2

This is an interview I did with "The Big Bang Theory" star Jim Parsons in November 08 for my TV blog, Season Pass.

[@kathyl310]

Thanks for reading. He really is lovely. Just a sweet, wonderful guy. I am very lucky to have interviewed him.

[@zeitgeist1958]

Very adorable, wonderful, talented actor!

[@loveveganpeace]

[@jodiburleyson8931]

I’m watching these years later! Always been in Aww, love with him! I had always wondered why his hands were so red. Lol Love hearing him say why! He is so adorable!!

[@jennypenny001]

haha yeah my crush for him lingers on also! he is just too adorable not to be in love with!

[@daughter189]

He is such a lovely guy. Thanks for posting this, you are so lucky to have interviewed him! :)

[@paulinemm4775]

Ohmygod I'm soo in love with him !!!

[@octoberroadstudios]

This guy's on TV. I enjoy him.

[@jaja1818]

1 dislike belongs to jim parsons because he is very humble=)

[@kimyrrah2416]

I love how open He is about His experiences. He really lets you into the world of an Actor! Beautiful Human Being!

[@kimyrrah2416]

These are my favorite interviews with Jim Parsons. This is so natural and honest. He really gives you a look into the life of a working Actor. I am thankful for this glimps. Thank you Jim Parsons!

[@Disneyfan9]

Lol I agree. He just seems so real and down to earth, not to mention he is so funny. I agree that he was off base with the couple *winks* .This was at the beginning of season 2, so he didn't know just yet how him and Kaley's chemistry exploded off of the screen.

[@LFer97]

how can someone dislike this? he's adorable

[@misnixz]

I love him!!! hes an amazing artist!!

[@19jacinta88]

Haha!! "Do you think Sheldon will ever win a Nobel prize? - and I say "Yes, it's a comedy!"

[@alexandra31882]

all the things he said at the start of the video already happened.. except sheldon winning a nobel prize

[@XxXKashybabyXxX]

I just love him

[@Eyulfable]

How could I get a hold of him? I want to ask him to make an "It Gets Better" video. Being both gay and a character who was constantly bullied in school, He would be able to pull it off masterfully. We need to prevent LGBT suicides from bullying.

[@Laurenkelley1234]

I LOVE JIM PARSON AND WHERE DID U MEET THIS GUY!?!?!?!?!???!?!?!?!??!!?! WHAT RESTERAUNT AND WHAT STATE

[@DINOLOVER6717]

@TheJomanProductions Awesome, just LOLed at work! Too hilarious

[@MadWorld92]

where I can read this interview? I'm italian and I don't understand his words becouse it's too fast. do exist a place where I can read this interview? Thanks! =)

[@asantewaa84]

Hi Kathy, thanks for uploading this. Im not a fan of t.v but i absolutely love the big bang theory and watch it religiously. Mainly because of Jim Parsons. I think hes beauuuuuuuuutiful. I was wondering if he is gay. I get mocked for my crush on him because he's apparently gay. lol.....Is he?

[@dawnoftheplanetoftheapesfa1271]

so cute i love you jim parsons

[@drivethrunic]

Actually that IMDB entry is for a Visual Effects guy. Jim Parsons is a fairly common name. There are like four of them on IMDB. There's no real info on THIS Jim Parsons. He keeps us guessing.

[@darthmatrix101]

Oh geez......those eyes...

[@Neophyte5150]

He played "The Normal Heart" on Broadyway. There are a couple of videos about it here on KZbin! And next year it will come out as a movie.

[@ALittleBitWeirder]

Jim Parsons is a very private man and he says very little about his personal life. A New York times interview notes that he is gay and in a 10 year long relationship. I believe the interview was in the perspective of the reporter so there are no direct quotes other than what Jim told them which in turn was put into the paper :)

[@sambergfan20]

I have a major crush on him. Lol.

[@belicious73]

So agree with Octygirl! Love him!

[@ALittleBitWeirder]

Indeed :3 He's been in the same relationship for 10 years, unless that's changed since he said it :)

[@takineko]

@muecoziro No. He's said in a few episodes he never really read comic books, but when they're on the set where they're in the comic book store he said he looked through some and was amazed by the art.

[@BekurahToshin]

I love listening to him ramble about topics while answering questions, this is such a relaxed and simple setting, he really just opens up and starts going on about something. He's so unique too, it's no wonder he brings so much life to and energy to the show. And that person is right, Jim, you are awesome. ^^ Cute how he liked the idea of Leonard and Penny together... but way off base from what most of us fans think. *nudges everyone while winking* lol

[@takineko]

0 People dislike Jim Parsons... anywhere.

[@BekurahToshin]

To true, to true. ^^ His comment on that topic might be a little different now, me thinks. lol

[@doobtribe]

@kraft112 I think so to as well, he is a really younger more contemporary version of Mr.Bean.

[@cdbhl]

2:20 was so cute LOL :3

[@optifog]

@Eyulfable LOL, I didn't realise you'd be so excited :) It's called The Normal Heart and filming hasn't started yet. It'll be based on the Broadway version that was on last year, which Jim was also in. He's not one of the main characters but he got good reviews for the play. It's not a documentary but all of the characters are based on real people, as it's written by Larry Cramer about his own experiences as an activist at the time.

[@magneaguny1729]

Yeah, i've kind of figured that out. Okay, thanks tough :) I found out about it on wikipedia, i'm just really curious and i want to hear him say it :) Thank you :D

[@ChronologieIV]

@19jacinta88 I totally agree with you. It just doesn't matter if he is or not.

[@Eyulfable]

@optifog WAIT WHAT!?!?! What's the name of this movie? I have to watch it!!!! How far along is the film in production? Is it going to be like a documentary?

[@BrittFuckinDvorak]

Hahaha I've shook hands with him

[@kathyl310]

That would not be possible, unless you are a journalist working for an established, legitimate publication.

[@LOLIZAMBARD]

@kathyl310 But, Who are you? Why did you interviewed him? You were so near from him.........

[@Eyulfable]

@optifog I had actually thought about trying to get a hold of him for a while because of the character he plays on TBBT, who talked about how he was bullied so much so that he created a supersonic device that was supposed to demolish his enemies or something. It ended up just annoying the neighbor's dog.

[@shadowman2192]

How did this interview happen?

[@magneaguny1729]

When did he say it? Is there a video or something? :D

[@takineko]

I have noticed his hands are red in some interviews where I guess they didn't put make up on them.

[@srxshadow]

What scene is he referring to in 3:00?

[@drevildruid]

If you watch "Garden State" with Natalie Portman, you can see a lot of Sheldon in Jim Parson's character.

[@sk8ergirl1525]

I am pretty much in love with him. c:

[@esria]

Gay or straight, he's adorable. Those big ol' eyes!

[@19jacinta88]

It's nobody's business, really. So what if he is? Clay Aiken is gay, but he is still a fabulous singer and has a great personality! I don't care if Jim is gay or not, he is still awesome ;)

[@jennypenny001]

hey asantewaa84, Nope he's not gay! the crush may continue! he is actually married to Lisa Levoir, since 2000 I believe.

[@xNitracex]

@shmuli9 He's not an engineer. He's a theoretical physicist. Sheldon frowns upon you. Bazinga

[@MrDan1d]

@joeadame2 Yup

[@charleyphillips793]

Aw, I seriously love him! He just had to be gay : /

[@docvader]

Jim Parsons is GOD!

[@EverlastingxSong]

Marry me Jim!

[@jaywilliams1908]

You do know he's gay, right?

[@optifog]

@Eyulfable Has he ever said he was bullied though? On Rachael Ray he said he was 'certainly made fun of plenty' but he had a big group of friends and an average existence. Got voted Class Friendliest in high school even. I got the impression he wouldn't class himself as bullied. Also said no when Craig Ferguson asked if he found it difficult growing up in Texas. Still if you're right and can get him to something that would be really cool.

[@kathyl310]

I did not ask him. I didn't think it was my business to know.

[@kathyl310]

@Kiya4ever A little of both

[@optifog]

@russell26041980 It's funny that he considers Sheldon to have high grade OCD and himself only low grade, when Sheldon obviously isn't supposed to wash his hands as much as Jim does if they're putting make-up on them to hide the redness.

[@alexandra31882]

optifog so thats why.. haha i also noticed his hands being red.. i thought it was odd.. turns out he just wash his hands a lot

[@xx3xxx]

he still look away and fast talkers, so science trait guy

[@takineko]

I see you have down votes, but truthfully he probably is, from what I've heard in interviews..

[@Grindhouse1988]

@kathyl310 Great interview! ;-)

[@juaniI711]

I Love Nerds!!!

[@optifog]

@Eyulfable Oh I see. Well good luck, I don't think much of your chances to be honest, because he doesn't have a history of explicitly sharing personal matters with the media. But that could change soon, as he's got the part of a gay man in a film about the New York AIDS crisis. It's full of big names so there will probably be lots of interviews and media interest, and gay activism will inevitably be discussed. That would be a perfect time to approach any of the actors about doing one.

[@picto182]

@the1lex Is gay synonymous with bad?

[@shaunmike]

Is he still in character..its almost the same minus the grandiosity

[@xfilethe]

its funny how he sayd that then , and now in series 4 walowits is getting maried , penny is stil of but think wil get back together again ( i think ) , and whel raj he talks a lot more ( lets see what the drug does in series 5 ) and shelly himself is stil not getting that he actualy is in a relationship and his gf is wizing up to it and may change him lol...

[@octygirl]

i don't want him to be gayyy :((((.he is the most adorable man in the world.it would only reinforce the saying all the good guys are probably gay :|

[@kathyl310]

@theslug12 His publicist set up the meeting

[@akashashen]

Lenny's a slip alright! Shenny forever!

[@the1lex]

obviously gay...but totaly talented actor

[@shmuli9]

This show is hilarious... It seems that 'Sheldon' is a high-functioning autistic person... ("If it isn't just so, I can't handle it") You know, like most engineers are. (And *I'M* an engineer, so I sort of know what I'm talking about...)

[@ratachimatai]

@Chocola7ez yeah, he is gay..

[@RedLioness8]

I love him cause he's kinda feminine... *sighs* Yeah, perfect =3

[@HeartYukitty]

Oh dammit,he's gay. I so wanted to do bad things to him. But can you imagine how cute he looks with a guy?

[@imbagogo]

I hope he doesn't smoke He's teeth look kinda stained

[@baillou2]

I hope he IS gay. That way I have a shot, even though I'm a straight man. But I love him too........ shit, I'm confused.... :)

[@danni98lovemymuzic]

He's gay. Right?

[@jaywilliams1908]

Yes

[@heatherbabes3207]

@kathyl310 thanks for this; kudos to you for knowing his personal life has nothing to do with his character or his ability to act :)

[@Grindhouse1988]

@kathyl310 Great interview! ;-)

[@Grindhouse1988]
