LEE FISHER
Television Star, Comic

Lee Fisher rose to fame in the sixties on the CBC sketch comedy show Chuckles. Lee made many television appearances on shows as a standup comic, which landed Lee many more television roles as a comedic sidekick.
Lee snaps their fingers when they tell a joke to emphasize the punchline and signal it's time to laugh. Albeit, sometimes only crickets respond.
AUSTIN ALDA
Movie Star
From comedic characters to romantic lead roles on the big screen, Austin has one of the most famous faces worldwide. Away from the film lot, Austin is a perpetual outcast, a rebel against the societal norms. Born in Neptune City, New Jersey, Austin’s mother owned a beauty parlor, and his/her father was a magician. Considered a former ‘class clown’ from high school, Austin blossomed the nonconformist attitude into an astounding, award-winning film career.
Austin often leans on walls, people, or other objects and takes up to five catnaps a day. Austin claims to work too hard, but sources say this superstar’s just plain lazy.
MERCURY MCQUEEN
Movie Star

​

That's when this star grew interested in acting. After high school, Stevie worked in greasy spoon diners while playing bit parts on television until finally being discovered by one of Hollywood's biggest talent agents.
This icon has endless energy. Stevie's continually twiddling their fingers and fidgeting in their seat, and it's challenging to keep this star pinned down for long.

After countless hours of local theater as a teenager, Micky first gained notice for the leading role in the 1964 movie Old Timers. Since the breakthrough, Micky has had steady work.
Micky has no filter and will blurt out whatever is on their mind. Most people find this behavior to be off-putting and offensive.

Jackie is intense and tightly-clenched and has been typecast into playing only ultra-serious roles.
Jackie refuses to look anyone in the eye but is exceptionally outgoing. This celeb will look past people while talking and never acknowledges anyone standing nearby. This behavior can be daunting.
PAT NICHOLSON

Pat began their illustrious career by performing in nightclubs and Broadway theaters in the early 1960s. After many guest appearances on various television shows, Pat was signed with Wavier Records and released a debut album Pat Sings.
