I tell a lot of fart and poop jokes. I can't help it. I have no filter, and it just comes out.

I tell jokes, chat with people, and make stuff.

Fart jokes still work for me.

I mean, people don't know what race I am. They never know if I'm Hawaiian or Italian or Mexican or Spanish or white. I could play Jewish, I could play anything.

I didn't want to do a throwaway, mindless movie with fart jokes just to make 6-year-olds laugh. I want to provide my children with some substance.

'Madea' is a Southern term. It's short for 'mother dear.' So there are a lot of Madeas out there.
