From the Reality TV Talk site in the US an interview with Big Brother Evictee David Lane.....
''I thought you were a real stand up guy and a lot of fun. We were sad to see you go.
Hey, that’s what everyone’s saying! Oh, funny! I appreciate that! There are a bunch of boring people in there. I had a fun time.
That’s not your problem, being boring.
No, no. Definitely not! I thrived off of everyone’s reaction on how explicit I can get.
You kind of get people going.
Yeah. I definitely get them going either with me or against me. But either way I still get a kick out of their reaction.
You have an Andy Kaufman type approach.
Yeah, I love Andy Kaufman. That guy’s a genius, man. I love his source of comedy. I love what goes on in his head, or what went on in his head, and I found a sense of that in me when I was on the show.
I actually stared down a camera, I think, for five minutes. Just didn’t do anything but just look into it. I pictured there’s some monitors somewhere where they’re looking at me and that’s just my face staring at them. I had to be freaking somebody out. And just that whole thought, was so entertaining to me. And when somebody would walk by, they were, "What are you doing?" I’m cursing this camera and whoever’s watching it right now. And the funny thing is when I got out of the house, they told me that that camera actually stopped working when I left. When I actually walked away from it, it wouldn’t move anymore.
So you were working the cameras at times?
Oh definitely. I always threw messages at the cameras. I messed with the people who are behind the cameras. I’d try to get reactions out of them. I’d do a lot of things wrong just to try to get people to yell at me over the intercom. I tried to yell some shout outs on the internet – “What’s up guys?” “You freaking weirdoes!”
How did you get on Big Brother 4? I can’t really imagine you making an audition tape.
Yeah, I’m glad you said that. I didn’t make a tape at all. I met a guy at a party in Venice Beach who happened to be a casting guy. And it turned out it was two days before they had all the finalists flown into LA. So it was just luck of the draw, right place at the right time. I definitely don’t watch much reality TV, and the reality TV that I have watched, I thought those shows need a guy like me to stir things up. So I saw this chance. They told me $500,000 cash was the prize at the end, and I thought I’d be stupid to pass it up.......''
