10 Things You Didn't Know About Zach Galifianakis

2. He€™s Not A Typical Hollywood A-Lister

Having always hated the excesses of celebrity culture, it would appear that Galifianakis is doing quite a good job of not getting too sucked into it. After being asked to present at The Oscars, he told The Guardian: "In a way, I'm going to turn into the thing I despise." Perhaps his disdain stems from a down-to-earth upbringing in Wilkesboro, which was famous for being the world€™s largest chicken plant. Fan: "Hey, aren't you that guy from The Hangover?" Zach: "No, no," he says, "I get that all the time." Fan: "Really? You look a lot like him." Zach: "No. I hate that guy. I think he's a terrible actor. And he's fat."
