Steve Carell recalled his first meeting with Taylor Swift during an interview on «The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon» on Monday, June 10. «Remember TRL [Total Request Live], a long time ago? So, at the beginning of my career and hers too, I was, of course, much older, but we were both on TRL at the same time… I met her in passing and thought, 'Wow, she seems special', even back then. Very sweet, very pleasant. I had a very good first impression», - shared the 61-year-old actor when asked if he was a «Swiftie».
What really touched the actor was seeing how the 34-year-old pop star helps the world in a unique way many years later. «Some kid who was recovering from something [in the hospital]… [she played guitar for the patient] there wasn’t a big entourage. It was something very modest, done on the fly… it’s so cool and not publicized. Just acting from the heart», - he told Jimmy.
From that moment on, «The Office» alum opened up: «I will root for this person».
In addition to talking about such «good people», Jimmy mentioned that Steve is definitely one of the good ones. «It's an act, come on! Hollywood stuff. That’s what helps you move forward… Just wait until the cameras turn off», - Steve joked.
One of the main reasons Steve may be one of Hollywood’s favorite stars is that he plays iconic roles, such as Michael Scott in «The Office» — he talked about a reboot during the interview — and Gru in the «Minions» franchise.
«I'm so cute, and people like to see cute things, even if it’s just a voice… It’s a lot. I think the minions are insanely funny. I think the script is great. They [the writers] created this arc of characters and relationships… It’s funny, it’s really funny. It’s fun to watch with a group of people too», - he told Jimmy when asked what makes «Minions 4» such a big hit.
«Minions 4» is set to hit theaters on July 3 and will also star Will Ferrell, Kristen Wiig, and others
