Oh how I adore Bill Hader. Love his work on Saturday Night Live and many of his movie roles; I find him easy to relate to because he openly discusses his struggles with anxiety that is amplified by his career in show business. I just love it when he breaks character on SNL, it’s considered unprofessional but I think it makes the skit more hilarious personally!
What’s awesome is that he’s actually from Tulsa, AND I got to meet him last Christmas! I was at Starbucks on Brookside when I noticed a man that looked eerily similar to Bill Hader and realized it had to be him. Since he did grow up here, it wouldn’t be the most unusual thing in the world for him to be here for the holidays. I talked with him for a few minutes, he was very polite to give his time since he was getting coffee with family. It was such a joy to encounter him in our hometown versus if it had been in Hollywood, the celebrity center.
