I admire his honesty! It's nice to hear some of those celebs who do admit loving the attention
Hes
exactly what I think too
BeautifulDreamerK yes, it's a humble truth ...
And he didn't sound arrogant at all. lol
Samuel L Jackson said something similar too. He enjoys the attention lol
It’s nice to finally hear a celebrity appreciating some aspects of fame and being honest about it.
Thank you for loving me
And this is why people love Kevin Bacon. He just seems like such a cool, laid-back, honest guy.
I’m genuinely happy to hear that. As a kid I once saw him while on the school trip to NYC, I spotted him hanging out on the sidewalk while our bus was stationary at a light. All the kids shouted with glee at him, & he looked up a little startled & smiled. I thought he might have been peeved that I blew his cover, but now I know for sure he we made his day brighter :)
yeah and i saw him on a school run... stop lying. lol
@@starlet9939 no lie, we did pass him in NYC back in the 90’s.
Kevin Bacon is super underrated, want to see him do more stuff
He should play Freddy Krueger.
he seems to be very stupid
maybe that's why he's always happy
Play-a-maker you couldn't be more wrong
I really love most of his movies.
He is the celebrity I’ve probably seen the most around NYC.
And he is telling the truth - whenever I’ve seen him - he is always nice and always cool to everyone who recognizes him.
I have to say though - there have been times I see him on the train
or walking around and no one recognizes him at all!
I think that’s why celebrities enjoy living here in NYC.
People are rushing around and are so busy all the time that
they often don’t recognize when famous people are among them!
"This sucks! I'm going back to Kevin Bacon." 😂
since it's relevant because we have both Kevin Bacon here and Guardians 2 is out
_"On my planet, we have a legend about people like you. It's called Footloose. And in it, a great hero, named Kevin Bacon, teaches an entire city full of people with sticks up their butts that, dancing, well, is the greatest thing there is."_
Who put the sticks up their butts? :)
Asummersdaydreamer14 * fooled around and fell in love is playing on the background *
Well, obviously it's not meant to be taken literally. It refers to any manufacturer of dairy products.
The meek? I'm glad they get something 'cause they have a 'ell of a time.
CaptainGrumpy it's crazy, my wife and I only just watch Guardians last night for the first time in prep of the sequel. we were not disappointed.
0:29 "People don't talk about the fact that being recognizable is 99.9% good."
I've never heard that POV. I'm assuming he's just talking about being recognizable in public as opposed to just being famous and in demand.
It's like Yelp reviews. Most restaurants and such are not nearly as bad as their rating suggests because satisfied customers don't hop on Yelp to say as much - only the 1% who had a bad experience do.
I understand what you're trying to say although I think that analogies a bit flawed.
I think a better analogy would be like a Yelp reviewer going out of their way to review one particular restaurant and only saying the bad things about it, and never about the 99 other things that were fantastic.
I can understand writing a bad Yelp if the experience was mostly bad, but if you have a mostly good experience, why would you only talk about the one bad thing?
That's what it feels like he's describing. If you're talking about fame anyway, why don't they at least mention some of the good parts?
That is how Kevin "The Narcissist" Bacon views the world.
Yeah, I’ve heard many of the top celebrities say to the question: what is one thing you missed most about life before your career in entertainment? a lot of them answer the exact same… Anonymity. Being able to go to the store and shop and just enjoy yourself without being hassled by the press, chased around by paparazzi or asked for selfies or autographs. the fact is, they are just regular people like you and I who have an admired career. They just want to enjoy the fruits of their labor, without being hassled 99.9% of the time. Spend time with their families and just going out and having fun with friends. Which many of them can’t do without fear of issues. Many of them having to be followed around by bodyguards.
Simply to go to the grocery store or to the mall or movies. They can’t even drive around in their cars without fear of somebody following them home. So many people set their sites on being famous without realizing what the cost of that is. Not only what I mentioned above, but worrying about trusting even the people closest to you… Wondering if they’re there because of you or your fame and fortune. Wonder why many actors Only hang around other actors and successful people? It’s because they generally know that those people are in the same situation. even then, you have to worry that they aren’t just there to get a part in one of your TV series or movies. It’s a very sycophant lifestyle. Everybody using everybody else in order to get what they want.
I truly don’t know how they deal with it. I’ve carved out my own little niche in entertainment, doing so my entire life and deal with a little bit of what they do and don’t like it. I can never imagine having that on an international level. When I do meet celebrities, it’s one of the first things I ask them. How do you deal with it without going completely insane?
well when I was working at AMC in 2011 in Boston, I remembered he came up to me when I was at Box-office and he wanted to see Moneyball and I said to him "I just saw your movie Crazy Stupid Love and I loved it"... he put his hat on and said "Yeah." And then put on his glasses and walked away fast. I was excited at first then I felt shut down. I understood if he had a bad day but I've seen his films since Tremor came out. I was hoping for a different reaction from him.
I don't even remember him being in Crazy Stupid Love. There was a son, a dad and Ryan Gosling.
@@assholebyginger he was David Lindhagen in Crazy Stupid Love.
He aged well
Kevin Bacon & Ethan Hawke. I always get mixed up with those two.
Ethan Hawke and Ethan Hawke, I always get mixed up with those two.
Artur choked on my biscuit
Allen Rodriguez watch the first Friday the 13th you will never get confused again
"Kevin Bacon can do this, Kevin Bacon loves action"

This makes complete sense, actors get into the business because at an early age they desire to be on a stage with all eyes on them and people cheering for them. Some people want to be the center of attention, why would this change as they get older? Not saying actors are completely vain, but acting requires a certain level of vanity.
c0mputer Really?? Try telling that to Robert de Niro
c0mputer Not all actors like It- very few actually!! And as they age they hate it even more. No different than the way anyone ages. But clearly obviously Kevin bacon likes it
Nah actually i think a lot of people dont like it because of the fame
For his age Kevin Bacon looks really young. One of the best actors in Hollywood.
Hello thank you dear yes I look really young base on I'm taking care of myself and happiness
😂 @@Kevinbacon-f7g
When he was one year old he didn't look a day over zero 😃
Very honest, I love that! And the fact that he's aged really well too ;)
Man, I love Kevin Bacon!
Everybody loves bacon.
I wonder if Kevin Bacon likes Bacon 🥓
@@strangerboi101 Honestly if I had the last name Bacon I think the temptation to name my children Smoky and Streaky would be too strong
Thank you so much I will call you for dinner ok send me your number
its amazing how he's so honest and how he loves the attention haha
Love & appreciate his honesty !
"I'm going back to Kevin Bacon ASAP."
I love you Kevin Bacon. You are so good in every role. Years ago , seeing my daughter off to New York and AMDA, we saw you at SF International. We chose discretion but we were thrilled!!!
😂
Kevin is a great actor , love him !!!
How honest is that.
Hands down real as it gets.
Makes you think if your a stuck up famous person.
Thank you so much you welcome😊
@@Kevinbacon-f7g 😂
it's difficult to recognize a hollow man 😉😉
Nymul Ahmed Haha that's right. He probably looked like that with all the prosthetics. People were probably too scared to approach in the grove.
somehow else who remembers that one !! very transparent performance !! HA ha HA ha mU ha! BUT I enjoyed It a guilty fave for perverts !!
Nymul Ahmed he gives me Tremors.
he's probably been a Guiding Light to other actors
i don't recall him on GUIDING LIGHT with two other actors!!? just teasing you !!
Kevin hasn’t lost his Philly accent, I see. ❤
Kevin Bacon is a living meme. Almost as much as Nick Cage.
If people didn't recognise him before, thanks to his EE adverts here in the UK he'll always be recognised they are on tv 24/7
😂😂💯💯💯💯
Me and my mum have got in the habit of just yelling Kev! Every time they show one of those bloody things 🤣
hahaha I love the realness
Not many actors I've seen that I can say I loved every movie and show they were in. Kevin Bacon is one of them.
He seems genuine and nice! (not only based on this clip but otherwise, too).
Finally an honest man.
Kevin Bacon is brilliant, one of my favourite actors.
"I'm goin back to Kevin Bacon" lol
THat was tooo many degrees away from Kevin Bacon !!~~~!
Finally an actor who is honest! LOL love it
I've always wondered why I'm so attracted to Kevin Bacon and now listening to him talk now i understand why..he's so cool inside out.
i love Kevin...humble,lovely...
the only talk show that allows guests to talk.
I really like him, he is such a great actor
You know what they say...everything is always better with bacon.
I have no idea why anyone would ever want to be stopped on the street every six minutes and get asked the same exact questions all the time and get yelled at every single day of their bloody lives. beats me.
There are plenty of places he can go without being disturbed but it is kinda nice to be able to go out and get a confidence boost whenever you like
I think those who act need some sort of adoration and boost. Some say they are insecure and were shy as kids, so parents put them in acting classes to boost their confidence. It is not necessarily arrogance, but they have a fragileness about who they are and being admired gives them some boost to their self esteem. The free stuff is shocking to me, like I read of an actor who got a free meal, give it to a homeless person not a rich guy. At least some donate what they were given lije I read John Legend and his wife got so much for baby Luna they donated a lot to charities helping poorer families.
There's definitely different levels of famous. Kevin bacon and will smith have both talked about how nice it is to be recognizable and it's perks but their type of famous is manageable. Someone like Justin Bieber who is superstar famous and has a fanatic like fanbase, that is the type of famous you are referring to that would be beyond annoying
Ada banana. Will Smith is a superstar, it's just Just Beibers fanbase is far less mature than that of someone like a Will Smith.
I think most people still have enough common sense or restrained not to attack someone just cause they're famous even though I'm sure it's a different story for pop stars and teen idols with all these shrieking fangirls. It's just another human at the end of the day and you realize at the latest when you see them in person
One time I saw Kevin Bacon in person, he was playing a concert with his band in Interlochen Michigan. Before the concert and his brother were just kind of walking around outside amongst people. I totally could have gotten an autograph. But at the same time of being Starstruck I also thought he probably doesn't want me to bother him, so I just said hi from afar to him and his brother, they looked and waved and said hello back. After that I about fainted lol. This was August of 2001.
Kevin is so sweet. I love him❤❤❤❤❤
The American Dad episode was 100% real about his disguise.
Love Kevin and everything he does!
Thats no Kevin Bacon, thats Willem Dafoe
I think the same, lol
Kevin always came across as just himself super relaxed.
Kevin is a great actor.
I think most celebs do not mind the attention from their fans, but the press and media is another thing entirely.
It’s the EE advert guy 😂😂😂
“Turbocharge your gaming and reduce lag with EE game mode”
Always love Kevin Bacon's Nose, so perfect shape for men...!!!
Ok let's play 6 degrees to Kevin Bacon..Graham Norton to Kevin Bacon..go!
I've had 2 celebrities get mad that I didn't know who they were. They love that stardom ego.
MkxOzB who? Sell em out
"Don't you know who I was?" 😃
He looks like a mix of Brad Pitt and Jim Carrey
Well then you're a good celeb! because others will spit on fans, call them names, and yell at them when they're simply admiring you for what you do and who you are. that's a part of being famous and doing what you do. So Thank you for seeing that and being happy about it.
I understand wanting privacy and sometimes not wanting to be bothered, but I'm glad he's so honest to say he know he has charmed life and he's happy about it. I get annoyed after a while with so many poor little rich boy complaints for celebrities. Obviously, they deserve privacy in private but in public they want the attention.
...outstanding in 'Mystic River'.
In a game of six degrees of Kevin Bacon, I have just one degree of separation. Steven Bishop, who played a role aside Kevin Bacon in National Lampoon's Animal House, was the leader of a San Diego garage band "Steve and the Marquees" that my older brother played drums for in the 1960's...who then became "The Weeds" . Steven occasionally came by our house for rehearsals. Big whoop, eh?
Welcome to my world Kevin Bacon *sigh* & 92 % of Planet Earth population :|
Love this guy 😎
Kevin Bacon sounds like a person I want to run into
I could easily recognize kevin bacon anywhere!! Wish i meet him
At least he's honest!
Now he knows what it's like not to be famous. He says he doesn't like being anonymous, but I do. I would hate everyone knowing me and being nice to me all the time. I don't mind if people are nice once in a while but all the time it would really annoy me.
"And it was... awful" not surprised
who is he?
LOL. Guess I gotta go to The Grove one day 😂
i am a simple man, i saw mystic river and i became fan of the other bacon too.
I feel like punching something if a stranger so much as sits next to me on the bus and tries to start a conversation. This is an entirely alien viewpoint to me
Tremors! Favorite movie
Poor Kevin. You can dance with me any day! x
That's funny. He and his wife came into a coffee shop where i was working a few years ago and i purposely made no indication of recognition.
he´s honest man!!!
Always loved KB, now I adore him!! Just his being honest about public recognition is Priceless!
Kevin is also one of those rare celebrities that is still married to his wife, herself a celebrity, Kyra Sedgewick. They've been wed for 35 years which is quite something by Hollywood standards.
Love ❤️ him especially in his tv 📺 show the following
Kevin bacon you are one of my favorite actors...PLEASE HAVE A CAMO FOR TREMORS 6 AND REJOIN THE CAST FOR TREMORS 7
The one thing though that gives away some celebrities is there voice though.
Kevin Bacon always reminds me of Roger and his fake nose from American Dad.
Diane seemed a bit stunned by Kevin's reaction to being anonymous.
There are many really nice celebrities, too.
"Aw mah Gawd". Celebrities are so in touch with the hardships of life aren't they?
Imagine trying to look like him? You'd be Fakin' Bacon.
I love this man!!
he stay handsome evenmore handsome and handsome...
Diane is lovely here!
Legend.
Apollo 13. Do I have to say more than that?
Good for him. That wasn't a showbiz answer. Well played bacon.
Hey! It's Myles Kennedy!
I feel bad for him. I only recognize Kevin by the bacon number. 😂
Michael Fassbender career is on fire and he has a big tool so yea Kevin Bacon wouldn't mind being him right now
He looks surprisingly similar to Ethan Hawke
Kevin Bacon will always be the Guy in the EE adverts
i like bacon and my name is kevin
Why do GN and the BBC channels post the same video separately? It takes away views from both :p
if everyone's got 6 degrees to Kevin Bacon, this made me feel one degree closer to him :)
This starts with an American Dad plot.
He still wishes he could be Hollow Man and go absolutely everywhere without being recognized ;-)
got to love the man...
We all saw you Kevin. I liked the way the shoes and the belt match the purse. Not really my bag.
