Will Ferrell Crashed Roger Federer’s Post-Match Interview to Ask Him Some Important Questions
Roger Federer is perhaps the greatest tennis player the world has ever seen. He's been dominant for nearly 15 years and still is ranked number two in the world. This week at the Australian Open, following an early-round victory, the Swiss legend was being interviewed by John McEnroe when a special guest joined the fray.
Comedy great, tennis fan, and all-around weirdo genius Will Ferrell was on hand to ask the hard-hitting questions that sports journalists are always too afraid to ask. Sure, the "professionals" will get Federer to tell them how he made it through a challenging third set, or find out what his training regimen is like. But when it comes to the uncomfortable things, they fall short. Not Will. Will asked what we're all thinking: Is Roger Federer a witch or a vampire?
This video immediately made me wish that I had more Will Ferrell in my life. I know he had a movie come out semi-recently, but Mel Gibson and the whole anti-Semitism thing really put a damper on that. I just want Will and his bizarre sense of humor to be a more frequent presence in the culture. Maybe something with John C. Reilly again. What's that?
Hollywood is the worst, but sometimes it delivers.
