Jason Segel laughs at his body

The American film actor has revealed that despite striving for an attractive physique when he was younger, he has not been able to fulfil his own ambitions and use it to promote his sexiness.

Instead, the star discovered that his nude form is actually very humorous, and now uses it for comedy in his movies.

“You know what – I had high hopes for what my body would turn out like and it didn’t really work out the way I’d anticipated,” he told the Australian radio programme the Kyle and Jackie O Show. “And so I realised that me naked isn’t sexy but its super funny, so I’m going with it.”

The 30-year-old, who has starred in Forgetting Sarah Marshall and the US sitcom How I Met Your Mother, also divulged one of his most shocking secrets.

Jason said that when he was younger he once wet his pants while visiting the magic shop in Disneyland, Florida, and then blamed it on a girl in a wheelchair.

The actor told how he was waiting for his parents to come back and pick him up from the shop when he found he really needed the toilet, but since he wasn’t allowed to leave the venue he had to go in the corner of the room.

“And then this poor girl in a wheelchair got wheeled into the magic shop and they wheeled her right on top of my puddle,” he explained. “And then I heard a sentence that still haunts me. Behind the counter the clerk picked up the phone and said, ‘We need to clean up in the magic shop, some poor lady in a wheelchair wet her pants.’”
