did they really?
Benjamin McKenzie
- Thread starter kiss&tell
- Start date
Adam and Benjamin are goofing around on the set of The O.C. They laugh and joke around, pretending to hit each other on the arm and slapping each other on the back. It's immediately clear the pair are as much like brothers off-screen as they are on. The two guys who grace our screens are sitting on a sound stage in Manhattan Beach, about half an hour south of downtown L.A. It's an up-market beach suburb, strikingly like the glamorous beach life of Newport in Orange County.
GF: First things first, what do you look for in a girl?
Adam: Well, I like one that has a sense of humour and a good figure too.
Ben: That works for me too.
GF: So...who's your celeb crush of all time?
Adam: It's hard to tell if they have a good sense of humour or not if you haven't met them, but I just saw a billboard while I was driving to work today for Amanda Peet's new movie and she seems very cool.
Ben: Too many for me to name. I like a lot of celebs.
GF: What's the top 5 songs on your iPod?
Ben: I'm all over the place at the moment.
Adam: I like a lot of the bands who are on the show. But this is the music in my iPod: Interpol, Ben Folds and Chet Baker, stuff like that I love.
Ben: I feel like I like all of those...except Chet Baker, I'm not that familiar with him.
Adam: It's jazz. I really love jazz, I always have.
Ben: Yeah, I'm not as well versed on jazz. For me, I like a lot of country and blues music like Lyle Lovett, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Willie Nelson and old school country.
GF: Do you ever crack up when you get the script and read what you're going to be saying and doing for the next show?
Adam: Sure!
Ben: A lot. All the time.
GF: What's the funniest scene you've ever had?
Adam: I tend to laugh hardest when I have to do a serious scene. The other night, I shot a scene where the girl ODs and we're trying to work out who slipped her some ecstasy. The paramedics were there and everything and I was biting my tongue the whole time, about to cry. Watch it when it comes on. We shot that scene at four in the morning and I was trying not to laugh.
GF: Do you ever get told off when you can't stop laughing?
Adam: Absolutely. The worst thing for me is when they start to say 'C'mon guys, stop laughing, settle down.' It's reverse psychology. It makes things worse and it makes me laugh harder.
Ben: We have this British director and I'm sorry because I know I'm being stereotypical, but he has this very formal sense about him and so we'll be cracking up about something and he'll say [puts on an upperclass British accent] 'Look chaps, let's concentrate.' It's hilarious and obviously makes us laugh even more.
GF: Okay, I'm about to confess...the gals in Australia are absolutely in love with you. What would a girl have to do to make you go, 'Wow'?
Adam: For myself, I like a girl who is really funny. If they're cute and funny, that's an awesome combination because most cute girls never had to be funny. It isn't a requirement. I don't know what it is. If a girl is cute and funny it's pretty fantastic.
GF: What could a girl do that would freak you out?
Adam: If a girl was to get my name tattooed on her, that would be weird. That would creep me out. I'd be freaked out too, if a girl sent me a major gift like a sports car or something.
Ben: I'd date any girl who sent me a sports car!
GF: When you're in a relationship, are you a romantic kind of guy?
Ben: I would say so, yeah.
Adam: I'm pretty lazy. My favourite date is a movie and diner food. Truthfully. I have to say I think I'm romantic enough in the day-to-day stuff, like holding hands and that kind of thing, but when it comes to the big showy stuff, I'm terrible.
Ben: That's not true.
Adam: It is!
GF: In what ways do you need a little help in the love department?
Adam: Like when it comes to Valentine's Day and birthdays, it terrifies me. You have to come up with something original and amazing and sweep her off her feet. I'm always happy when I accomplish it, but the task of doing it is actually intimidating.
GF: What about you Ben?
Ben: I solve that by being single. That keeps it very simple on a relationship level. [laughs]
GF: What will you never understand about women?
Adam: Periods. I don't get it, that for a week every month...
Ben: What?
Adam: I don't understand the psychology of it. Um, what else?
Ben: Their fascination with candles has always been a bizarre thing to me.
Adam: Yeah, it's true.
Ben: All candles do is burn and they're done. I don't get why girls love them.
Adam: Lipgloss is another one for me. It never did it for me anyway. It's kind of annoying. It looks okay, but if you've ever tried to make out when they're wearing lipgloss...
Ben: I know! And then you get it on you.
Adam: It's like tahini paste.
GF: Every guy has secret. What's the first thing you'd hide if a girl came to your house?
Adam: My smelly feet.
Ben: I'd hide my teddy bear. [laughs] There's nothing in my apartment to hide really.
GF: Was highschool like The O.C for you?
Adam: I was more on the fringes of being cool, but not quite. I don't think anyone called me a nerd.
Ben: I feel like highschool is divided into little cliques, but there's a whole lot of people who are in the middle who aren't the subject of a show like this coz it doesn't make for great television.

While everyone is off making movies and being real actors, Ben reverted to ways of bad boy Ryan when he got Punk'd on MTV. When a little kid egged his super-expensive Infinity G5 car, Ben lost his temper and chased the little kid down the street before roughing him up! The poor thing freaked out and Ben had to be restrained by the show's crew!
