Interview
cont’d from pg 7
Coming from that to
this was a lot and it makes
you forever grateful.
KW: What’s on the
horizon for you. More
movies, more TV, more
stand-up?
Katt: All of the above. I
just finished an episode
of “Atlanta,” and I have
a Netflix special drop-
ping Jan. 16 called “Great
America.” And I’ve just
wrapped Meet the Blacks
2: The House Next Door
with Mike Epps, Lil Du-
val, Bresha Webb, Zulay
[Henao] and company.
And right now, I’m just
finishing up #TwoM-
inutesofFame with Jay
Pharoah, Deon Cole and
a bunch of great comedi-
ans.
KW: What happened
to Jay when he joined
“SNL”? I was expecting
big things from that mar-
riage, because I knew he
was so talented.
Katt: It’s delicate when
you’re using his set of
skills for comedic pur-
poses. It’s not the easiest
thing to do. and that’s
why he struggled on
occasion. But when it’s
done right, it’s perfect.
Jay’s a rare talent, and
I’m sure “Saturday Night
Live” was just the start
for him.
KW: The Uduak Oduok
question: Who is your fa-
vorite clothes designer?
Katt: I hesitate to use
the word “favorite”, be-
cause I’m a fan of so
many great fashion de-
signers. However, I’d say
Tom Ford, as an organi-
zation. They get me and
the way I like to dress.
I like a little edge and a
little flash. But I do like
to be grounded in con-
servatism, and Tom Ford
has never delivered me a
bad product, ever.
KW: When you look in
the mirror, what do you
see?
Katt: I see someone
who has managed to stick
around for this amount
of time without literally
scraping their potential.
KW: The Viola Davis
question: What’s the big-
gest difference between
who you are at home as
opposed to the person we
see on the red carpet?
Katt: [LOL] I’m able to
behave like the guy you
see onstage although
that’s not my entire ex-
istence. I might be a por-
tion of that guy. At home,
quiet prevails. It’s in-
cense, candles and birds
chirping. Everything’s

first things that got done.
I was so grateful to God,
I did make sure I kept all
my promises to Him, up
front, of what I’d do in re-
turn for being successful.
KW: Is there any ques-
tion no one ever asks
you, that you wish some-
one would?
Katt: [Laughs some
more] There are a whole
of list of questions. Lis-
ten, parodies of me have
been done 7 or 8 times on
“SNL.” Every time they
want good black ratings,
somebody’s doing Katt
Williams. Jay Pharoah...
Michael Che... Leslie
Jones... Drake... Tiffany
Haddish. with each of
them, we’ve had a Katt
Williams sighting, So,
here’s a question I wish
somebody would ask:
How many impressions
of you should they do
before finally having the
real Katt Williams on
Saturday Night Live?
KW: Harriet Paku-
la-Teweles asks: With so
many classic films being
redone, is there a remake
you’d like to star in?
Katt: I hesitate to say,
because I put it out there,
someone else might jump
on the idea. Although, I
think it’s a great time to
redo “Trading Places.”
KW: Well put! Why do
you spoof somebody so
many times without in-
viting them on? The An-
thony Mackie question:
Is there anything that
you promised yourself
you’d do if you became
famous, that you still ha-
ven’t done yet?
Katt: Oh, no. Absolute-
ly not! Those were the
the same after I saw Bram
Stoker’s “Dracula.”
KW: The Anthony An-
derson question: If you
could have a superpow-
er, which one would you
choose?
Katt: Invisibility. That’s
the only thing that fame
cost me.
I used to be able to go
places and blend in. Ano-
nymity is something you
lose on this side of things.
KW: Can you go to a su-
permarket?
Katt: Not unless I’m
prepared to be Katt Wil-
liams.

KW: What is your fa-
vorite dish to cook?
Katt: Turkey. Turkey
is a big deal because it’s
so obvious when it’s not
right, and just as obvious
when you’ve nailed it. I
like those recipes that a
lot of work goes into.
KW: Making a movie
is like that, too. Do you
have any interest in di-
recting?
Katt: Yes, but I’m focus-
ing on producing right
now. I’m producing both
