Jim Norton: The Kiss of Death

From the radio, to The Jay Leno Show, now to the stage is Jim Norton. Jim Norton joined TheCelebrityCafe for an interview about his comedian career; where is has been and where he is going.

Norton has been in the spotlight since 1999 on the talk radio program The Opie & Anthony Show. More recently he has been on tour doing shows. TheCelebrityCafe inquired what drives is energy, and gets him ready for the performance. Norton's response:
What fuels me is the desire to meet someone after a show who is drunk enough to come home with me, but not so drunk they try to kiss me after they vomit down the front of their shirt. I also have a healthy fear of bombing in front of a large crowd. My audiences are animals; if I was onstage mailing it in, someone would voice their objection by lobbing a Molotov cocktail at me. And they'd be right.
Jim does not let the crazy fans get to his head though. After guest appearing on Bored to Death, he warns the show to stay clear of him. "Anything I love dies on the vine; I'm the fu--ing kiss of death...so they should stay away from me as humanly possible."

Clearly that is not true though. Norton is continuing his successful 20-year career in his upcoming show January 16 at The Borgata hotel in Atlantic City, NJ, as well as a new CD coming out entitled No Baby For You.
