: ...I'm just saying ... that his little facade for the public is... kinda funny.
I chopped your sentence to shit, I know, but I wanted to make a point. I think he tries to do it for laughs, his own if not anyone else's. Quite honestly, I think he lets the "facade" slip into his commentaries a bit, too, but it works a lot better because Kev picks up on it and plays off of it, and you can tell they're joking around. Half of the interviewers in the world, especially the ones that interview movie stars, are too brainless to pick up on what I think is a subtle self-satire.
If you've ever read anything he's written in sincerity, such as a response to an issue-based question on a message board, he seems to be much less of a dick than he even comes off as with Kev, let alone on TV.
