Backstage at the Screen Actors Guild Awards on Sunday Steve Carell (whose
The Office won for best ensemble comedy) joked about his sticky
relationship with Ricky Gervais – who starred in the British version of
The Office.
"[He's] very scary. He's a very intimidating human being and none
of us like him very much, and he doesn't like us either," cracked Carell,
who was surrounded by the rest of his show's cast. "There's an awkwardness.
You can cut the tension with a knife."
Added Carrell, "I actually saw Ricky in the men's room just before the
ceremony, and I swear to god, he leaned over the urinal and said: 'I knew
it!'"
