Actor Steve Carell is probably most well-known for portraying Michael Scott in “The Office.” He held that role from 2005 until 2010. The full list of his credits is too long to go into here. Steve Carell has also voiced the character Gru in the “Despicable Me” series of movies. During an interview with Jimmy Fallon on The Tonight Show, the actor recalled interacting with a young fan. @fallontonight Steve Carell left a voicemail as Gru for his friend’s son’s birthday #FallonFlashback #TonightShow #SteveCarell #Gru #Minions #DespicableMe #JimmyFallon ♬ original sound – FallonTonight He began with some backstory about a friend with a son named Dylan. The friend asked Carell if he could leave a Happy Birthday message for their son from “Gru.” Obliging, the actor made the call, saying, “Hi Dylan, I hope you have a terrible birthday! Be a good kid and brush your teeth.” The call was perfect, with the accent and gruffness of the Gru character dripping from every word. However, the next day, Carell received a call from Dylan’s Mom. The fallout from the call was hilarious. After hearing the message, young Dylan looked at his mom and said, “Mom, see? He’s real.” And that, for an actor, might be the greatest compliment ever! Image from TikTok. Fallon’s next question was how Steve Carell developed the 12-year-old version of Gru’s voice during flashback scenes to the villain’s youth. The actor sarcastically admitted that the shift was “so, so difficult.” While Fallon was laughing uncontrollably, Carell did the voices, “I’ll go from this (in the normal, gruff Gru voice) to this (in the high-pitched pre-puberty Gru voice). The voice and accent of Gru have been topics of discussion in numerous interviews. Can’t Get Enough Of Steve Carell And Gru? If you haven’t seen the movies, they are great entertainment for children and adults. “Despicable Me” and “Despicable Me 2” are available on Peacock with a subscription. The next installment, “Despicable Me 3” is available on Amazon in DVD format or rented on Prime Video. “Despicable Me 4” is a new release in 2024 and is only available in the theaters. As an adult (I only watch for the Minions), I was recently dragged kicking and screaming (I drove) to see DM4 in the theater. It is the best one yet! Popcorn and drinks cost us more than the matinee tickets, but it was an awesome way to spend the afternoon. If you enjoy “Despicable Me” and Steve Carell as Gru, please share this hilarious birthday wish backfire. You can find the source of this story’s featured image here and here.

Cat owners have been revealing their pet’s “extensive lore” on social media, and some of these backstories are actually quite sad. However, one heroic feline’s history is nothing but wholesome! For those not familiar with the “extensive lore” trend, these videos usually tell the story of a rescue cat’s life before they were adopted. They often include some pretty traumatic events! While this kitty has known his fair share of sorrow, it comes with the territory when you’re a therapy cat. According to his “extensive lore” video on social media, Roger has been a therapy animal for eight years. That means it’s his job to comfort people during some of the scariest moments of their lives. Among his responsibilities, he has often “supervised the flu shots” and allowed distressed children to hold his paws. @therapycatroger #extensivelore #cat #retirement #therapycat ♬ son original – Cat’slife – Cat’slife In one heartbreaking experience, Roger provided emotional support to a grieving mother before her baby was removed from life support. Another time, he kept an elderly woman company while she was dying. This cat’s “extensive lore” reveals a lifetime of service and compassion. What an uplifting way to use this trend! Why is the “extensive lore” trend controversial? Originally, the “extensive lore” trend was created by a cat owner who had adopted a rescue named Lucille. In one of her videos, she explained some of the sad things her pet had experienced before she had a permanent home. Lucille went through a lot, so her new mom was grateful she could give the kitty a better life. Unfortunately, the owner who started the trend is watching it transform into something far less edifying. In a later video, this young woman warned that some people have been using “extended lore” to talk about the ways they’ve harmed their own pets through neglectful behavior. “Please, please take care of your pets,” she begged her followers. @lucilletherescuecat people PLEASE BE RESPONSIBLE some of the videos i am seeing are really upsetting #fyp #catsoftiktok #extensivecatlore ♬ original sound – lucille Despite the more negative “extensive lore” videos out there, you can still find some pretty wholesome posts following this trend. Roger’s story is a great example! You can find the source of this story’s featured image here. The post Roger The Therapy Cat’s “Extensive Lore” Will Warm Your Heart appeared first on InspireMore.
