Chris Pine has revealed that he once tried his hand at stand-up comedy, but that it wasn’t exactly his forte. Chris recalled the story during an appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live, explaining that he once put together a five minute set at the Williamstown Theatre Festival just outside New York, where Lewis Black was in residence at the time. Describing it as ‘the closest he’s come to feeling naked on stage’, the actor revealed that he based his comedy routine on ‘what parents make you do when you don’t want to do whatever it is’.
