7 Fun Facts About Josh Groban and His New Character on The Office

Rose Curiel — Thu, 13 Oct 2011 17:21:39 PDT

Josh Groban makes his debut as Andy Bernard's little brother, Walter Jr., on this week's episode of The Office. Groban took the time to talk to reporters about his new character, the rivalry between Walter Jr. and his older brother, and why he sometimes wishes the Bernard family patriarch, Stephen Collins, was his actual father. Plus, he filled us in on how he landed the gig.

Walter Jr. Stole Andy's Name
"Andy is the firstborn, which is usually, I think, probably the favorite son, but for whatever reason being the secondborn somehow I kind of stole his name from him. He was originally going to be Walter Jr., but they made me Walter Jr., and he kind of wound up being a little bit more of the happy-go-lucky, very successful, almost kind of fell up in a way."
He Geeked Out Over Visiting Schrute Farms
"I was very, very honored [to visit Schrute Farms]. I did not take it lightly for sure. I was actually kind of surprised they didn’t put a blindfold on me on the van ride over because it feels like one of those very kind of top secret TV land locations. But when we pulled in, as a fan of the show, it was really, really fun to see. And also it was great to see the actual house on Schrute Farms. Everything that you see on the show, none of that feels like a set when you’re there. It’s a beautiful piece of land and what they’ve done, the prop department people who have created that house, it’s all to scale, and to be able to walk in and be able to see all the Schrute portraits on the wall, and the pictures from his childhood and the oil painting of his grandfather next to the Kiss poster, like it’s just like they haven’t left any stone unturned as far as his character and what that property means for his character. As a fan of the show it was really, really cool to see."

To find out what other things Groban revealed about his character, just

He Couldn't Resist Bringing a Prop Home "I definitely will treasure the family portrait that was taken on set. We got to take a picture where it was me and Ed [Helms] and Stephen [Collins], and all of standing there, and Dee Wallace of course, who plays our mom, who is amazing. It’s definitely a cool portrait. I’m going to frame it and hang it on my fireplace at some point."
He Got His Office Gig Through Twitter "The complicated thing right now is that I’m actually on tour. When Mindy Kaling asked me about doing the show, she said - she actually kind of direct message tweeted me, and I was shocked to hear from her and I said, 'Yeah, no I would love to do the show. When are you thinking?' And it just so happened the exact week they were taping this episode was the exact week out of an eight-month tour that I’m doing, that I happened to be in the Los Angeles area. So it was 100 percent just serendipity that I happened to be in town when they were taping this episode."
He'd Love to Play a Drug Dealer "I would love to play somebody really bad on Breaking Bad. I think that would be a really fun thing for me. I would love to play a drug dealer, or something that would be really, really fun. I’ve been completely obsessed with that series."
He Wishes Stephen Collins Was His Part-Time Dad "Stephen Collins, you know, I’ve watched his work in the past and everybody’s seen him in 7th Heaven and all those shows, and he’s kind of like the ultimate dad. When you watch him at work, he’s kind of the dad you wish was your side dad, no matter how great you think your family is. Like, you want him as your weekend dad. He’s a cool dude and when I met him off set, there’s something about him that is so calm and collected, but he has a really dry wit. Just hanging out with him, we were working on some of our song harmonies and things like that. He, first of all, has an amazing voice. Not to give any spoilers, but I think people will kind of realize that the musical inspiration in the family started with him. There’s a little bit of a Von Trapp family atmosphere in his world in the show.
He Can Be Just as Shy as Walter Jr. "I think to a certain extent I am kind of as shy in garden party situations as Walter is, and I think to a certain extent, any of us who have achieved a certain amount of success kind of feel like we’ve worked for it, and also feel to a certain extent like we were given wonderful opportunities and wonderful open doors to walk through. I would say that I’m definitely a little bit more neurotic than Walter Jr. Walter Jr. seems to be just very much go with the flow, and life’s grand, and I tend to be a bit more of an overthinker than he is, I think."

Tom Hits NYC With Katie and Possibly Preps For a Les Grossman Movie

Allie Merriam — Tue, 12 Apr 2011 14:54:58 PDT

Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes stuck together this afternoon to pick up treats at the ready-for-Spring Magnolia Bakery in NYC. It's one of the couples favorite Big Apple spots, along with the Serendipity sweets shop where Suri found her "penis gummies." The Cruise family is in between projects at the moment, as Tom recently wrapped up Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol, and Katie just did promotional work for her The Kennedys miniseries. Tom's also got the Rock of Ages movie coming up, and his friend Bill Hader revealed that a movie based on Tropic Thunder's Les Grossman is in the still in the works after it was green-lighted last June. The script has already been written by Scott Pilgrim vs. the World's Michael Bacall, though Tom has to find free time in his busy schedule to commit to the movie fully.

Katie and Suri Wrap Up a Fashionable Few Days With a Night of Theater

Allie Merriam — Thu, 17 Mar 2011 06:22:39 PDT

Katie Holmes and Suri Cruise left their NYC apartment last night and headed to Broadway for a performance of Wicked - they also saw the show during a visit to the Big Apple last year. It was Suri and Katie's latest evening of theater, after watching Daniel Radcliffe in How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying last week. The girls are on the East Coast so Katie could team up with her Holmes & Yang collaborator, Jeanne Yang, to present their new designs at Barneys, where the actress also revealed their interest in creating a makeup line. Jeanne and Katie celebrated with a fancy Tuesday night out, and Suri went along for a midnight dessert run to Serendipity that resulted in a particularly awkward moment with some adult candies.

Katie Holmes Steps Out in Style With Her Partner in Design

Lindsay Miller — Wed, 16 Mar 2011 13:28:32 PDT

Katie Holmes was out in NYC with her Holmes & Yang collaborator, Jeanne Yang, this morning. The duo was back out in the city following a busy afternoon yesterday, which they kicked off by showing their latest clothing creations at Barneys and expressing their interest in creating fragrances and mood lipstick. Jeanne and Katie ended things with an evening on the town that wrapped up with Suri Cruise at Serendipity, where Suri was spotted checking out some decidedly adult candies. Katie's focusing on her fashion endeavors right now, but her acting will take center stage next month when The Kennedys airs on the Reelz Channel.

Suri Cruise Checks Out the Adult Candies For Sale in NYC - Hilarious or Wildly Inappropriate?

PopSugar — Wed, 16 Mar 2011 11:23:54 PDT

Katie Holmes capped off her fancy evening with friends and busy afternoon of showing off her Holmes and Yang clothing line by making a midnight dessert run to NYC's Serendipity with her daughter Suri. It seems as though Suri's sweet tooth wasn't satisfied by the treats they enjoyed at their table, because on their way out she grabbed a box of adult candies called "Penis Gummies." The almost four-year-old likely didn't know what exactly she was looking at, but the image of her holding those candies is certainly startling. Tell us what you think of Suri's late night snack grab - hilarious or wildly inappropriate?
