Well, would you look who's a hit with the younger crowd! Rip Taylor, the King of Confetti himself, has scored big, especially with recent appearances in the movie "JackAss," "The Bonnie Hunt Show" and Rob Reiner's soon-to-be released film "Alex and Emma."

Taylor has been introduced to a whole new generation of fans, and they like what they see. You might say that once again he's an overnight sensation, 40 years in the making. To think, Ed Sullivan started it all by forgetting his name and introducing Rip as The Crying Comedian.

Soon after that famed appearance, Taylor became a pop culture sensation.   He's a Hollywood madcap mainstay who now, in his 70s, is as popular and busy as ever.

He holds nothing back in this interview!

    What a wonderful comedian, I can still see him tossing confettie at the audience and that face with all the expressions on it...he is so funny and cute.  Lets see more of Rip, we need him to put the smiles on our faces.
