What’s the biggest similarity between you and Jesse Pinkman?
We both love kids. We have a huge soft spot for the young ones and we don't want them to be raised by meth heads... We want to protect them.
AARON! If you could act on any show other than Breaking Bad, which would it be and why? Thanks for doing this AMA, bitch.
hey bitch. anything other than breaking bad...I would say Its Always Sunny in Philadelphia, or Game of Thrones, or House of Cards. They are so badass and addicting.
AP, why did you get kicked out of that Radiohead concert? Did you dance too hard? Was Thom jeal of your moves?
HA! I love you for asking that. They tried to kick me out because I was standing up and dancing and at the O2 Arena if you're in the stands you have to be seated. The very next day I went to the concert and convinced everyone in my row and the row in front of us to stand and dance during a song and it created a wave like affect. Everyone was dancing and they couldn't stop us all. So fuck you O2 Arena!
Jesse was originally supposed to be killed off in season 1 of Breaking bad, if that had happened what do you think you would be doing right now with your career?
My career would be over. And I would be a sobbing mess watching week to week on Breaking Bad.
Hi Aaron! It's 5 am here where I'm at. I just wake up for this AMA to tell you that I am a huge fan.
Thank you for doing this AMA and being so fucking awesome to your fans.
It's amazing how you always want to entertain them and always being so humble.
You're such an amazing actor and an awesome man.
I hope I will still see a lot more of you in the future after breaking bad. :(
I need to go back to sleep now. I got final exam in 10 hours. Wish me luck. Bitch.
Good morning bitch! And good luck bitch! Thank you for the kind words. I love you, bitch. When you have time, come over and let's make cookies together.
Has playing Jesse affected you psychologically in any way? Insomnia, depression, bad mood? Have you ever caught yourself wandering inside Jesse's mind? How different is Aaron Paul now than before playing Jesse in Breaking Bad?
That's a really good question. I actually have found myself while shooting Breaking Bad, thinking as Jesse. While playing this character I have tried to really get inside his head. And as any Breaking Bad fan knows, it can be difficult to live and breathe as Jesse. But I have enjoyed living and growing through his struggles. And all I want to do is protect him. Did I answer that correctly?
What was the most emotionally difficult scene in breaking bad for you?
edit: bitch
Well bitch, let me see. I honestly think the hardest scene for me to do was when Jesse woke up and found Jane lying next to him dead. Looking at Jane through Jesse's eyes that day was very hard and emotional for all of us. When that day was over, I couldn't be happier that it was over because I really, truly felt I was living those tortured moments with Jesse. So yeah bitch, that's the one.
Why was there a buttplug on the shelf in this scene? http://i.imgur.com/qpKfDwC.png
Oh my god! I have no idea. That's the first time I noticed that. But bravo bitch for pointing out the butt plugs. I'm sure that was a joke from our brilliant set decorators. But happy to know that butt plugs were full effect on Breaking Bad.
What was going through your mind during this fashion show?
Hahahaha! Honestly, I have no idea. The funny thing is that I was actually really enjoying my time but these pictures say the opposite. But maybe I was a bit confused by everything that was going on in front of me.
Who's the best bowler of the Breaking Bad cast and crew?
Ummm...I would like to say I'm a pretty good bowler, but I think Bryan might be the best of all of us. He's really good with balls. He's a professional with balls. All sorts of balls. Well done Cranston, congratulations bitch!
Aaron, I often hear about help for those who've been bullied, but rarely hear about help for the bullies themselves. As bullying is often a symptom of one's own personal strife, are you doing anything to educate and help those who are known bullies to prevent further bullying and gain insight into their issues?
That's an amazing question and very personal to me. My wife speaks at schools throughout the year constantly, speaking to the bullies and the kids who have been bullied, about spreading kindness. The thing that people don't realize is that a lot of the time bullies are the ones that are hurting the most. And during every assembly that my wife does, every single time, the bully at the school will stand up in front of their peers and apologize to everyone. It's an incredible thing to witness. Bullies need love too and that's why their bullies. Go to kindcampaign.com to find out more information.
My girlfriend wants to do things in the dark with you - how am I supposed to react to this?
Haha. I'm sorry buddy. I have no idea. I guess you can just give her my number? And tell her I said hi.
Are you satisfied with the ending of Breaking Bad? Do you think the fans will be?
I gotta be honest. I never wanted Breaking Bad to end, simply because I'm a huge fan of the show and I didn't want to be unemployed. But after reading the final 8 episodes and understanding where the writers are going with it. I'm so happy they ended it the way they did and I think all of you will be happy as well. It's a dark, crazy ride to the final episode but it is a fun one. Yeah, bitch.
Yo Aaron! Thanks for doing an AMA, bitch!
If you were forced to take a shot of beer everytime someone mentions "yo" or "bitch" in this thread, how drunk would you be by the end of this AMA?
[UPDATED 5:38pm EDT] Here are the word frequencies so far:
yo = 122
bitch = 627
TOTAL = 749
EDIT: I give up. Clicking "load more comments" 100+ times isn't worth calculating the word frequencies. However, I would like to do a calculation of his blood alcohol concentration (BAC), mainly because SCIENCE, BITCH. Well if we assume that there are 12 shots in one bottle of beer, that means Aaron would have had to drink approximately 62 bottles of beer by 5:38pm EDT. Using this calculator and assuming he weighs 150 pounds and drank 62 bottles of beer in 48 minutes, Aaron's BAC would be approximately 1.667%. Last time I checked, 1.667% is MUCH greater than 0.4% (which is the BAC estimated to cause alcohol poisoning/death). So yeah, Aaron would be dead within minutes of this AMA.
Congrats reddit, you killed Aaron Paul.
I would be dead.
Hey Aaron,
What is it like hanging out with the Mythbusters team? Did you enjoy the experience?
Also, can we get a good Vince story?
Greatest guys on the planet. Love them both. I'm such a huge fan of Mythbusters and it was an absolute honor to be involved with those guys. Vince looked like a giddy little school boy the entire time. It was fun living that with him. And Vince likes the word bitch as much as everyone else.
Aaron if you were to make a street name for Jesse Pinkman like Walter White's "Heisenberg", what would you name your character?
Oh man, I don't know. Jesse would probably go for a really intense name or maybe just a quote like "Yeah, bitch."
Captain Cook?
Yeah, let's use that!
Do you think that you would be able to make meth in real life?
Absolutely not! I'd kill us all and blow us all up.
Would you rather fight two Holly sized Salamanca cousins, or two Salamanca cousin sized Holly's (with axes)?
Easy! I would love to fight tow Holly-sized Salamanca cousins because I think anything Holly-sized is adorable and fun.
Out of curiosity, were you anxious to leave Idaho? I'm from Lewiston, myself, and couldn't wait to get out. It's a beautiful place, but I just found a severe lack of opportunity for anything except... well, farming. I do sincerely feel that you're the state's greatest export, though (outside of the one potato I found that looked vaguely like you). Also, if you answer this, can you inform my girlfriend, Anna, that she is a respectable young woman and definitely not a bitch?
It was very hard for me to leave Idaho but I honestly had no choice. I was running to something that I was madly in love with. Do I miss Idaho, absolutely - on a daily basis. I'm the only one from my giant family to leave home. And I would love to see the picture of that potato. I like potatoes. Potatoes are good. And most importantly, you're girlfriend is definitely a respectable young woman, and the farthest thing from a bitch.
Hey love. My Question is, if you could be any character from the Star Wars universe, who would it be and why?
Hey love, it's between R2D2 and Chewbacca. Leaning towards Chewbacca... just because I think it would be fun to be that furry and soft.
What is your favorite show on TV right now that isn't Breaking Bad?
Right now I'm reliving the Wonder Years from the beginning with my wife and it's so much better in this day and age. It absolutely lives up to what it was back then. So if you haven't seen it, get on Netflix and watch it now... bitch.
Edit: Also there's my girlfriend on American Horror Story... Jessica Lange and I make eyes through the screen.
If Jesse Pinkman and Daenerys Targaryen had a child, what would you name it?
Fred.
How has Bryan Cranston made you a better actor and person?
Wow. Just going to set and working off him every single day was a constant learning experience. I wouldn't be the actor I am today without him. I've learned that its ok to be professional and very immature at the same time because that describes Bryan perfectly.
What music have you been listening to lately?
The Lumineers, if you don't know the band, go and get their music on iTunes because it's brilliant. Alt-J, they've blown my mind lately and actually said they'd play a concert in my living room. And anything Thom Yorke is amazing.
Hey!
First off I'd like to say that your wife is beautiful!
My question: Where is your favorite vacation spot? OR, where do you really want to take a vacation but haven't yet?
Also, I drew something for you. Sadly, I didn't finish in time. Sorry :(
http://i.imgur.com/8LANQPu.jpg
Thank you bitch. I will send my wife your love. Favorite vacation spot is anything music festival related. Me and Lauren are addicted to musical festivals. We met at Coachella. We fell in love at Coachella. We had our first kiss on a ferris wheel at Coachella. So anything that reminds us of that we're very excited to do.
As a chronic former meth user, I relate to the show in a somewhat different way. Did you actually hang around any meth users to prepare for your role as Jesse? Some of the acting was spot on.
First of all, good for you for stopping. Secondly, yes I spent a lot of time with former addicts and people that were using at that moment. I wanted to try and bring as much honesty to this character as I could and I saw a darker side to people that I've never witnessed before. Meth is a terrible drug, as you know, and has the ability to grab a hold of you tightly. So seriously, good for you.
When was the last time you had your Pops?
HA! Honestly? That very day. I will never eat Corn Pops again.
How's it feel to have everybody like you? You're like the male Jennifer Lawrence...
Wow, well I'm flattered. I'm happy you like me. It feels pretty good, bitch.
I remember, that Dave Chapelle once told a story about how strangers always came up to him - even when he was with his daughter - and yelled "I'm Rick James, bitch!". With the popularity of the show and your character, do you fear that years down the road people still come up to you and say "bitch" ?
Right now, it looks like you are embracing it, but do you fear never escaping form the shadow, that is Jesse Pinkman?
I think you are an amazing actor and I'm loving every minute of you in Breaking Bad, but I wish you all the best in the future when you pursue other roles.
Thank you so much. Yes, I get called "bitch" on a daily basis and yes I do think I'll get called "bitch" on a daily basis for years to come. But to be honest, I don't really mind because I like being called "bitch."
What is the funniest prank someone has pulled on set?
Oh wow, the list is really endless to be honest. Bryan Cranston squirted me with a dildo-sbhaped squirt gun in a scene before and that made in laugh a lot.
Hey Mr. Paul. How did you get the role of the kid in KoRns "thoughtless" video?? And were you a fan of them before that? Thanks for doing this bud
I actually knew the guys from Korn and they were trying to find this kid to play this character for some time. And finally one of my buddies who worked with Korn asked if I'd be willing to do it. I was a huge fan of the Hughes Brothers who directed the video and I said yes. In regards to being a fan of Korn, they're really a hit or miss with me to be honest.
[deleted]
Wow, that's so impossible to answer. but I would have to say one of the best performances I've seen at Coachella was Duran Duran (randomly) and Radiohead. But to see Duran Duran was brilliant.

Good Afternoon Aaron, and thank you for taking the time to do an AMA. 2 questions. 1: In your opinion how much is Mike more like a dad to Jesse than Walt? Walt has called you son numerous time to try to take that role. 2: What's your relationship with kid cudi? In one episode of bb you wore a Steve Aoki shirt and one of his famous remixes is Pursuit of Happiness. and you just did need for speed with him. Did a good relationship form?
I think Mike is more like a father to Jesse because Mike actually cares for Jesse and Walt couldn't be more fake. My relationship with Scott is great. We met before we started shooting Need for Speed and we were really excited to work together. He's one of the funniest guys I've met in my life. I love the man. The reason Jesse wore the Aoki shirt in the episode because Aoki is a good friend of mine and he came out to ABQ to play a show and then came out to be an extra on the scene. We put him in the way back so no one would recognize him. And then he took the entire cast and crew out to a show, so I asked him if I could wear a show to thank him for his generosity to the BB family.
Can you call me a bitch?
Bitch.
Were you a fan of Malcolm in the Middle?
Absolutely. And Hal was my favorite character on the show. So when I was auditioning for BB, I knew they were getting the goofy dad from Malcom in the Middle to play Walter White, which confused me. But I was also very excited at the chance to work with Bryan.
yo, bitch!
just want to say that your fans appreciate you being such a humble, down to earth guy even though you're on the most talked about show in the universe. my friend justin (who is filming you as we speak) went with the cast to the S5.B premiere in the RV (he was filming there too) and you were cool enough to send out a snapchat with him from his phone that i received (and promptly died of jealousy).
my question - what do you consider a bigger accomplishment: acting in breaking bad or getting chosen for the price is right?
Hahahaha! Yo bitch! Well, I have to be honest, it was an honor to get called and win a desk on The Price is Right. But... you might call me crazy... being a part of Breaking Bad kind of slaughters my appearance on Price Is Right. But good question bitch.
For anyone thinking they need to add "bitch" to the end of their questions, don't be that guy.
You're a bitch.
Out of everything that's been aired so far, what was your favorite scene? And what was the most important for the character of Jesse do you think? What do you hope to move on to with breaking bad finished?
I have so many favorites, but the first thing that comes to mind right now is the infamous dinner scene with Mr. and Mrs. White. I think the glass of water became Jesse's security blanket it in a way and I love that about that scene. But there's been so many fun scenes to shoot. So anytime I as Jesse Pinkman can release my pent up anger told Walt is always a good time. So the time that Jesse shows up to Walt's house and thinks that he found on that he poisoned Brock, and he puts a gun to his head. That was a lot of fun.
Hello Mr. Paul. Huge, huge fan.
I was wondering if you could shed some light on this. It's a 4chan post made on April 1st of someone claiming to be you, and then following up with a pretty convincing voice recording and a piece of leaked information regarding Sunday's premiere.
To me, it looks like a well-played hoax from an extra on set. Either way, wondered if you knew anything about it. Congrats on all your success.
Wow... um. Well that's the first I've ever heard of that. He sounds a little more "breathy" than Jesse Pinkman. That 100% was not me but I applaud the guy for trying.
Hey Aaron, enormous fan. Just a few questions:
I heard that you got a concussion and had to go the ER while shooting one of the seasons, what's the story behind that?
What has been your all time favorite scene to film thus far?
It's very clear that Jesse's character has changed significantly since season one. Would you say that you've changed as well? How has Jesse's character influenced your work as an actor?
Are you satisfied with the ending?
Yeah Raymond Cruz who played Tuco gave me a concussion during the episode Grilled where Tuco takes Walt and Jesse to his shack in the middle of nowhere where we meet the famous Uncle Tio. Tuco takes Jesse and he throws him through the screen door outside, and if you watch it back you'll notice that my head gets caught inside the wooden screen door and it flips me around and lands me on my stomach and the door splinters into a million pieces. Raymond just thought I was acting so he continued and kicked me in the side and picked me up over his shoulder and threw me against the house, but in reality I was pretty much unconscious the other time. I kept pleading to him saying "stop". The next thing I know I guess I blacked out and I woke up to a flashlight in our eyes and it was our medic. And then I hopped up acting like nothing wrong, but it appeared like I was drunk, and I kept saying "let's finish the scene" but then my eye started swelling shut so they took me to the hospital. Just another fun day on the set of Breaking Bad!
Please advise regarding your facial grooming habits. You seem to have mastered the full-stubble-yet-not-a-beard look.
Hm, yeah. That's just how my face grows hair. It doesn't grow hair longer than that. I can't explain it and it's a mystery to us all but thank you for noticing.
Bryan Cranston has had some very memorable lines as Walt (I am the danger, I am the one who knocks... say my name... tread lightly...) what would you say is your most memorable line you've had as Jesse thus far on BrBa?
"Roll me further, bitch!"
Dude, just call me a bitch and I'll be happy..
Bitch.
You worked with child star Ian Posada for several episodes. How is the heavy and dark content of the show handled in relation to his age? How much (if any) of the plot does he understand? The content is very intense for a six year old.
He's a really smart kid, he actually wrote the finale. In seriousness, I don't think he really understands what's going on. But I love that kid. He's great. And when I was six all I could think about was ding-dongs and yo-yos so even though he's smarter than me, I doubt he gets the complexity of the show.
the breaking bad/mythbusters crossover episode that aired monday night was killer. any other things from breaking bad you'd have like to have seen them tackle?
congratulations on all your success. definitely going to look into Kind Campaign. your work on breaking bad was so good, i'll buy a ticket to any project you're involved in for the foreseeable future. cheers.
Wow, thank you so much. I love you and I don't even know you. I want to see them tackle a lot of things. I used to want Jesse to find out why Jane really died and that Walt was there. But now I'm not really sure if it would do any sort of benefit for Jesse; I think it would make him even more sad. I also want Walt to get what's coming to him, but to be honest... I don't know if that's going to happen. I mean I do know but it may or may not.
Call me bitch. Please.
Also, if you need some music to listen to while you are answering more questions, this shall please you: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WsqdmqRgrIc.
BITCH!
What was it like those few days after you were wrapped?
Awful. It was terrible. I went straight from set to the airport where a small little chartered plane was waiting for me, to take me to another job. I landed around 1 in the morning and I stood outside in the pouring rain for two hours, waiting for someone to pick me up, thinking about how the show was over. It was definitely kind of comedic but it definitely fit the mood I was in. It was good that I was able to jump into another job right away so I didn't have to completely mourn 24/7.
Were you at all freaked out when those random people showed up at your house?
I'm always freaked out when random people show up at my house.
What's your favourite Radiohead song?
Fake Plastic Trees.
Nerdy actor question, but what kind of training do you have? I'm always really impressed by your moment to moment work.
Thank you so much! The only training I have is really trial and error. I never went to any sort of class. When I came out to LA I was 17 years old and I sat in on two different classes. What I saw during those classes was them doing these strange acting exercises which I didn't understand. I always just thought "hey, pretend like you're being someone else and that's all there is to it." I wasn't a fan of those classes so if I go into an audition and fail miserably, I just think to myself "well, let's not do that again" and "do better." So that's really it. I just force myself to truly believe that I am living the situation through the character.
Aaron, how pumped were you when you learned you clinched the role of Jesse Pinkman?
Was it anything like the beginning of this?: http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=_SEL27xiJGQ
Thanks for the AMA man, you seem like a solid dude!
Haha. This video always cracks me up. Thanks for sharing it! When I read BB it was the greatest script I had ever read - of any TV show or movie - so I instantly wanted to fight for it. So when I found out I got the show, I honestly shit my pants a little bit. But I also didn't think it would ever get picked up. I thought it would be a fun pilot to shoot, but that was it. But when we all saw the pilot for the first time, we knew we'd be in for a crazy ride.
how long does it take the make up team to draw on the tattoo on your arm each episode?
The tattoo lasts about 2-3 days but first appliance actually only takes about 10 minutes. It's just a transfer so they don't have to draw it. It's like a really nice version of that tattoos you'd get in a Cracker Jack box.
What is your favorite salad dressing?
FINALLY. I am so glad someone asked me! Zesty Italian.
If you could play any character in TV history, who would it be and why?
God...there's so many. Damn thats a tough one. It's definitely a toss up between Alf and Flipper.
Aaron! You truly are an awesome guy, and it's even more awesome that you're doing an AMA :)
I met you around this time last year when you were in England with your then fiancee, you were both stood out the back of my tea shop in Stratford-upon-Avon. When I approached you you smiled at me and asked if I knew where a certain bike shop (Or rental shop) was. Unfortunately I didn't know, but I asked for a picture with you!
I hope you and your fiancee had a great time in the town (and enjoyed the food at the tea shop) and I'm sorry I didn't know where the shop was!
So my question is this, did you find the bike shop?
http://imgur.com/mDzLkzs (The picture I mentioned)
Hahaha! Hey buddy, good to hear from you. And no worries, we do not hold that against you for not helping us out. It was really nice to meet you and you were a great guy but to be honest after you failed in helping us, we just gave up on our search entirely. Miss you bitch!
I asked this question during Bryan’s AMA and got a reply, would love to get your take as well.
I live in Albuquerque and love to see our city showcased as a main character on such a monumental show like Breaking Bad. I’m curious how you feel about our city overall? Also what were some of your favorite places to frequent while in town? Thanks for the AMA, Bitch!
Hey bitch! I miss you and ABQ deeply. I loved my experience in New Mexico and I plan on coming back to visit often. I am happily a homeowner in ABQ and I plan on sneaking on to the Breaking Bad bus tour shortly so keep an eye out. Bitch.
Who would win in a free for all death match? Mike, Hank, Walt, or the Cartel Twins?
Well the Cartel Twins because they have two people. And they have accents. And they're crazy.
What do you think if you wouldve happen if you got the part of Francis on Malcolm in the Middle , bitch ??
Eh, well I definitely wouldn't have gotten the role of Jesse Pinkman on Breaking Bad, that's for sure. I don't know. The funny thing about that is a lot of people thought I auditioned for Francis but in reality they never would see me. I read the pilot of Malcolm in the Middle because it was sent to me and I desperately wanted to audition but they kept passing me.
What is your favourite episode of Breaking Bad?
I love all of them, but if I had to narrow it down to one, it would be "Four Days Out". I loved everything about that episode. I loved the dynamic between Walt and Jesse through the entire thing about how they were just desperately trying to find a way out of the predicament they were in. I loved shooting that episode. It was mainly just Bryan and myself for the entire thing. And that's always a good time. Plus that's the episode where Jesse truly thought deep down inside that they were about to build a robot to save them. That line was actually improvised. I remember that scene, it was a Friday night, and we had wrapped. In the scene I asked Walt "What are we going to build?". He says "you said it before" and then I was supposed to just supposed to stand there with a confused expression on my face. But then Nick, our focus puller, told me I should respond to Walt's question wit "A robot?". So we pretended there was something wrong with the initial shot so I could do it again.
Yo yo yo! What's up Aaron?? This is Marie in 208, your home state of Idaho. (I actually work down the street from Centennial High, at HP) Anyway, I love your show so so bad. How does it feel to be a part of such a successful show and what do you have planned for the future? Congrats on the recent marriage, by the way- She's stunning!! P.S. Please call me a bitch!!!
Bitch!
YEAH BITCH! You're the best!
Question, does Bryan Cranston smell as good as I imagine?
Also, can... can you call me a bitch?
That's a really good question and I actually get that asked of me a lot. Yes, he smells incredible always.
Also, you're a bitch.
Edit: To be honest, he smells like a freshly bathed unicorn on a summer day in Barcelona.
I just have one question.
Can you please convince Vince to create Badger's Star Trek episode?
I couldn't agree with you more. But I don't know if you've had the opportunity to see this brilliant animation of that episode but watch below, it's incredible. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3M6yoeOglNw
Aaron Paul!!
My friend Catherine wanted to ask you two questions, she is a HUGE fan of yours. (but since she's at work, I'm asking on her behalf)
and my question is, have you learned anything particularly important from playing Jesse Pinkman?
Thank You!
Yes. If they'll have me. Annie, would be pretty bad ass, but I'm not sure if anyone would buy me as 8-year old gingerhead. In seriousness, if they ever decided to do the play "The Pillowman" again I would be honored.
Where do you want to go with your acting career at this point? Any specific actors/directors/powers that be that you want to work with?
...um I don't know. I just want to continue to do stuff I'm excited about. It's so hard after being spoiled by the Breaking Bad scripts to read anything else. But whoever will have me really. So do any of you have a job for me?
Hey Aaron, about a year ago I designed THIS Breaking Bad inspired poster. You came across it on twitter and asked me to send you one! I was just wondering did you do anything with it, I like to think you have it hanging up in your house or something, maybe you even have a room full of Breaking Bad fan art? I know most of the cast have a Rick Fortson portrait which is pretty cool! Also, after about two weeks I got THIS one you signed for me and sent back, so I'd like to take this opportunity to say thanks for that and for being awesome! Thanks Bitch.
Hey buddy, thanks again for the art. And yes I do have one of the many that you sent to me framed and downstairs in my office. And I shared the others you sent with my family. And they send their thanks as well.
Hey Aaron! I was wondering when we can start buying tickets to watch the series finale of Breaking Bad at the Hollywood Forever Cemetery!?
I'm glad that up. The final episode ever will be played at the Hollywood Forever Cemetery on Sept. 29 and the tickets will go on sale the day after Labor Day and all of the proceeds will go to benefit Kind Campaign. There will be a Q&A following the finale with myself and a few of the cast members.
But you can go to omaze.com/breakingbad now and enter for the chance to hang with me and the cast at the finale. Every entry supports Kind Campaign.
It's my birthday tomorrow and I was wondering if you could call me a bitch haha. It would make my day and probably my life.
You're a bitch. And happy birthday!
Can you please call me a bitch?
You're a bitch. Bitch!
One last question Aaron! I've heard many places that Bryan Cranston is one of the biggest goofballs on set. Any good stories of him (or any of the other cast) on the set during filming that did not make it onto a blooper reel?
Well we already talked about the dildo. Another funny fact about Bryan Cranston - we all know that from Malcolm in the Middle to Breaking Bad, his characters tended to wear tidy whities, but what you don't know is that any close-up shot of Bryan on Breaking Bad where you didn't see the lower half of his body, his pants were always off. His pant were always off. True story, I'm not even joking. His pants are always off.
Can you call me a bitch so i can brag to my friends. Thanks Aaron Paul aka bitch
You're a bitch!
How do you think the President feels when you tweet at him things like "Time for Breaking Bad, Bitch"
I think it's hilarious
Ha! Let's be honest, anyone that follows Obama or me on Twitter knows that Obama is a huge Breaking Bad fan and he doesn't mind saying the word "bitch" over Twitter, which is very exciting to me and the entire American public.
Hey Aaron! You seem like an awesome dude! Did you get a chance to see the Breaking Bad as a romantic comedy trailer?? I helped a friend out on it. I was wondering your thoughts on it? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KWrRPohom3I
I just watched it. Oh my god, that was awesome. Funny enough that was the direction they were thinking of heading, but they decided against it...sadly.
Yo, please just thank your wife for the Kind Campaign. About time someone did something about girl on girl bullying because it's always so overlooked. I'm a massive fan of you two as human beings. Stay great, bitch.
Wow that's so nice of you to say. What's your number? Let me call you and thank you personally.
Also please send it in a private message!
I think I first became really emotionally invested in Jessie when he took the rap for his bros joint, and then stamped it out. Was there a moment for you when you first realized that Jessie was going to be really important to the fans of the show, and that people were going to start rooting for him?
I agree with you on that moment. That was really a moment where yet another layer was revealed to the audience. The deeper side of Jesse Pinkman. But to me what really changed was when I read the episode of "Peekabo" in Season 2 where Jesse encounters the little boy in the meth house. That episode showed the true heart of the character.
Hey Aaron, thanks for being a stand-up guy personally and professionally. Every story I've ever read about you has been positive. I'll definitely look into Kind Campaign and contribute however I can.
My question: With all the talk of a Saul Goodman spinoff, will you/Jesse Pinkman have any involvement in it?
Wait, Breaking Bad spin-off?! WHAT?!
Are you going to go to Austin City Limits Fest? Great festival if you haven't been. In my book, second only to Bonnaroo.
Oh wow. I've always wanted to go to Austin City Limits. Sadly, I've never been to Austin but I hear nothing but incredible things. So hopefully next time I will be there...dancing like an idiot.
AARON CAN YOU SAY GOOD LUCK BITCH TO MY LITTLE BROTHER JON HE'S WAITING ON HIS EXAM RESULTS! WE LOVE YOU!
Good luck bitch. Hope the exam results are positive!
What's your favourite type of pizza, bitch?
All types of pizza, bitch. But if I had to choose one it'd be the kind that has really good stuff on it.
How can I help donate to Kind Campaign? I live in Pakistan.
You can donate through Omaze to Kind Campaign and you might even get the chance to fly to LA to watch the finale with me and my cohorts. I'll even pick you up at the airport.
Which new Lays flavor did you vote for in the recent election?
Sriracha of course. Everything with sriracha is good. My god I love so you so much sriracha. I'm actually drinking a bowl of sriracha right now.
Hey Aaron,
Breaking Bad has definitely benefited from your presence!
A former teacher of mine started a traveling ensemble that takes their show The Bullycide Project on the road to raise awareness and I think your efforts area great thing!
Thanks for doing this AMA, bitch!
Thank you so much for the kind words! It's all about giving back whenever you can, that's what I believe. We should all support anyone who is going their own emotional torment. Life is tough on all of us and the best way to get through all of that is to be there for one another.
Who would win in a fight, a taco or grilled cheese?
Taco. Come on. There's so much going on with the taco. I love grilled cheese, but I love tacos so much more. I'm now dipping a taco in my bowl of sriracha.
My cousin Devin is probably in the room with you. Give her a hug and say "This is from your cousin, Bitch"
Thnx!
Will do bitch! Wish you were here with us. We're now all hugging, eating Sriracha together, thinking about you.
Aaron, who's your favorite superhero?
Batman. The Adam West version. But to be honest, I always wanted Q-Bert to be a superhero, because Q-Bert was always a superhero in my eyes. http://vectorlib.free.fr/QBert/
