When I hired the first group of cruiserweights – which consisted of Dean Malenko, Chris Jericho, and Eddie Guerrero – I sat them down in my office, and I was very clear to them. I said to them, almost verbatim, ‘You need to be my human car crashes at 9 P.M.’
Ruth’s Chris is my favorite restaurant, and I always order the rib eye, medium-rare.
I respect Chris Brown. I’d like to call myself a friend – I don’t know if I’m allowed to do that.
Chris Christie has been saying for a long time he’s not interested in running. The media is trying to create a story by sucking Chris Christie into race, just like they made a story by sucking Rick Perry into the race.
Denzel had made it apparent that he wanted me to bring my own interpretation of ‘Cory’. I was definitely aware of Courtney B. Vance’s performance in the original production, as well as that of Chris Chalk, who performed the role onstage with my cast back in 2010.
My go-to line when it’s the resume game is that I’m either Chris Evans or Ryan Reynolds.
Chris Hemsworth is like Christopher Reeve in that he can do two things: he can wear a big red cape without a shred of self-consciousness. But he’s also funny as hell, and he’s so sweet. So with all the fish-out-of-water stuff, he’s so funny. So he does almost two jobs in a way.
My daughter recommended Chris O’Dowd to me after seeing him in ‘Bridesmaids,’ so I watched that and his sitcom, ‘The IT Crowd.’ When I was over in London, we met up, and I knew immediately he was the right person.
I like Louis C.K., Chris Rock. Old schools like Richard Pryor and Eddie Murphy.
I was once asked to be a guest presenter on ‘The Big Breakfast’ for a week while Chris Evans was away, but I said no as I knew I’d be hopeless. If they asked me to guest present the ‘Today’ programme on Radio 4, however, I’d jump at the chance.
I bought a Burberry jacket that I call my Chris Martin jacket. It’s a bomber and was very expensive – there are just two in the world – and I felt very guilty.
I think the biggest influence on my stand-up would be Chris Rock, in that I love that Chris is basically an essayist, in that he’ll take a subject and just try and attack it from as many different angles as he can.
A little of the sketch character Pootie Tang went a long way on HBO’s now late, probably soon to be lamented ‘Chris Rock Show.’ So it’s surprising how much fun the character’s film debut, ‘Pootie Tang,’ is.
Chris Johnson was outstanding early.
It’s weird to me when an artist comes in, and the label says, ‘We want him to sound like Chris Brown,’ but he says he wants to sound like Sean Paul. There’s a huge disconnect – it’s like we’re making a product.
The thing that’s amazing about working with Chris Landon is that he has such an encyclopedic knowledge of all films in all genres.
Chris Cooper is one of my favorite actors in the world. I’ve seen him in most everything he’s done.
Chris Paul is a guy I can talk to about different stuff, especially when I played on his team.
You know how Bette Midler always says her obituary will read, ‘Bette Midler dies. Started her career at the Continental Baths?’ Mine will say ‘Chris March died. He was on Season 4 of ‘Project Runway.” It’s an amazing show, it did a lot for me, and I’m fine with it. Unless it becomes terribly disreputable.
I’d love to work with some of the people I’ve remixed for – Ed Sheeran or Chris Martin or The Weeknd. But it’s not just big names like these guys that I want to collaborate with.
When you watch Chris Paul on the playoff stage, you often sense he is fighting two battles, one against his nature and one against his opponent.
I’ve watched a lot of my friends die, everyone from John Belushi, River Phoenix to Chris Farley. It just keeps going on and on.
The most influential thing was the two Chris Rock specials that came out when I was in high school. I was obsessed with that stuff.
Casting Captain America is really casting two roles… Steve Rogers before and after the transformation from 98 pound weakling to perfect physical specimen. I can’t divulge how we’re going to do it, but the performance will be Chris Evans from beginning to end.
It’s like wine and food, or coffee and a pastry – coffee’s awesome and a chocolate croissant is awesome, and together, they’re transcendent. To me, music is the same way. Chris Stapleton is transcendent. Julien Baker is transcendent. Together, they’re going to be euphoria.
I spent the best part of 20 years trying to stop people like Chris Waddle from playing. Now I’m convinced that good touch and loads of movement are the way forward.
One of my first big shows, I opened up for Chris Brown; I was about 10 years old, and Chris Brown was just big; he still is one of my idols now.
I definitely know that I play the part, however big or small, in the deaths of at least two people, Chris Farley and Phil Hartmann.
I used to play central defence for Sheffield United. I had Chris Morgan at the side of me, which helped me a lot because, if I did anything wrong, I’d be sure to find out about it.
It actually is as fun to make men’s costumes, especially if they are as good-looking as Chris Hemsworth.
I think that God prepared me for Chris’s death in some ways, because I’ve seen other people lose their spouses. I’ve known for a long time that life isn’t fair.
Celador always ask me to do their shows, and I turned down ‘Millionaire.’ I couldn’t have done it as well as Chris Tarrant, or at least I couldn’t have done it any better.
Boxers Nigel Benn and Chris Eubank would not have missed their rivalry for all the world, and I don’t mind a bit of needle in darts if it helps to pay the bills.
I know Chris Paul well. I have a relationship with him.
I love working with Chris Carmack – he’s a really, really good friend of mine.
When I was younger, my favorite wrestlers were Shawn Michaels and Chris Jericho. I relate to them. I don’t know what it was.
I first visited Buenos Aires at the end of 2015 while filming the latest series of ‘Chris Tarrant: Extreme Railways’, and I liked it so much I’ve been back twice with my wife. It’s so much nicer than I expected – like a warmer, bigger, wider version of Paris.
I grew up when Chris Brown was, like, an icon. He was my ringtone when I was in high school.
I don’t drink in public. I don’t swear on TV. All I want is for people to say Chris Eubank is an all-right guy.
I was a big fan of Chris Benoit growing up. I was always a fan of usually the, I guess you can say the smaller, more athletic guys, I was a big fan of Mark Henry, but was more gravitated towards the cruiserweight type of guys.
My favorite song I ever wrote is ‘Yeah 3x’ because it was my first placement. It was with a great artist, Chris Brown, and I couldn’t believe it at the time. Honestly, I still can’t really believe it! It is the first time someone ever gave me a shot, so that is my favorite.
When you ask people who their favorite comedian is or favorite African-American comedian, people generally say Chris Rock, Dave Chappelle, Eddie Murphy, or Richard Pryor. Redd Foxx gets left out a lot.
I’ve been part of so many pay-per-views, and I’ve been in the ring with John Cena and Dean Ambrose and Randy Orton and Chris Jericho and Roman Reigns… all the top names. And I’ve been Intercontinental champion twice.
One percent of all comics ever reach the level of a Chris Rock or a Jerry Seinfeld. When audiences come to the underground rooms, they have a chance to watch the process that happens along the way – and see the comedians grow.
Chris Matthews’s sickening misogyny was made famous in 2008, when he obsessively tore down Hillary Clinton for standing between Barack Obama and the presidency, something that Matthews could not abide.
I saw Chris Rock do standup before he was famous. I was just a teenager. That will always be special to me.
President Obama has created at least three jobs that I know of – Bob McDonnell, Chris Christie, and Scott Brown.
Chris Coleman and Ryan Giggs have shown that they’re not afraid of giving young players a chance if you’re ready and you’re good enough.
Chris Matthews is a giant. He’s a legend.
I was fortunate to be born when I was. There’s been a massive rise in British cycling since I joined the junior programme when I was 17. It all started in 2004 when Chris Hoy won gold for the 1 km. time trial in Athens; when one person starts doing well, they take everyone with them.
All truly great shooters – Dale Ellis, Larry Bird, Craig Hodges, Chris Mullin – we always believed that we were the best shooters in the world.
I think every basketball player I know loves ping pong. Everyone played in on the Dream Team. I played Clyde Drexler and Chris Mullin and even David Stern once. David Stern saw I was pretty good.
When I became involved with Chris Timothy, it became a truly huge national scandal. It was out of all proportion and went on for months.
I was running super slow. Chris thought I was done. Then one day at the end of February, I woke up and my body felt good. I was just so happy. I was faster than my brother again. I got all my moves back. I told him, ‘Brother, I’m back, and now you’re done!’
I don’t even want to fight Pacquiao now because Pacquiao fought Jessie Vargas, Chris Algieri, Jeff Horn… They were talking that Terence Crawford wasn’t a worthy enough name for Pacquiao. Why are those guys worthy when a fight with me and him would’ve been bigger than any of those?
