In the wild world of auditions, sometimes the universe throws you a curveball—or should I say a “poopball”? Picture this: you’re on your way to a life-changing audition, only to be struck down by the dreaded stomach bug. What would you do? Cancel and hide under the sheets or muster every fiber of your being to go in, even if that means facing the humiliation of a “wardrobe malfunction”? Taylor Kitsch once had a legendary moment that embodies this conundrum. After an embarrassing mishap that left him rushing to the restroom, he hilariously put everything on the line for that audition, thus raising the question: is desperation the true harbinger of success? With the stars aligning in your favor or against you, can anyone really predict what will happen when the stakes—and your dignity—are on the line? You definitely don’t want to miss this outrageous tale of grit and guts! LEARN MORE.
He finally made it to the restroom, peeled off the destroyed underwear, and tossed it straight into the trash. He then tried to salvage his outfit before — deep sigh — he still went in to read for the role, poopocalypse be damned. Bro, no! Just go home! WTF? And if you’re wondering, he didn’t book the role.
Kitsch later said the whole ordeal was “disgusting,” but also darkly funny: “You haven’t truly paid your dues until you’ve soiled yourself before an audition and still gone in because you need the job.” You tell yourself that, Taylor. I am pretty sure you are the ONLY actor to have paid his dues that way. Like, I cannot picture Denzel Washington waddling into an audition having just shit his pants.
