How to Get an Agent and Survive in Hollywood!
  1. For headshots, bigger is better. I can't tell the difference between all these regular-sized pictures I get. If you're an actor, send me something big, something poster-sized. Then we'll talk.
  2. Lie. Nobody is going to check the facts on your resume. If you're 5'9" in real life, say you're 6'2". Your real name is Paul? Say you're Jerry Seinfeld.
  3. Never tell your age. An actor is timeless. Once, I got a sixty-year-old man the lead role in a teen movie because he refused to tell his age. That man was Seann William Scott.
  4. Network. It is very important for you to make contacts around town because there will inevitably be people I have forgotten to sleep with for you.
  5. One thing to remember: I am the best. If I won't be your agent, you'll probably amount to a big pile of cow crap.
  6. No trucker hats or wristbands in auditions. They just make you look like a wang.
  7. Join a cult. All the famous people are doing it. Who cares if you get brainwashed - you were probably pretty dumb to begin with.
