The craziest Stanley Tucci fact is that he gave his college roommate, Irving, his nickname. Ving. Ving Rhames.

I don’t know why I’ve always been obsessed with famous people who were roommates before they were famous, especially ones famous for different things. My absolute favorite is Lee Corso and Burt Reynolds. That room must have been insane.

Here are some more favorites:
Connie Britton and Lauren Graham; not sure what would go faster, the convo or the wine.
Al Gore and Tommy Lee Jones
Michael Douglas and Danny Devito
David Lynch and Peter Wolf
Jon Stewart and Anthony Weiner

Also, Eminem’s song Stan is actually about Stanley Tucci.

Well it’s time to mute this but I’ll share this story from my post college roommate @ChuckONeilMMA about Brock Lesnar and we’ll save the one about us almost having to beat up former Red Sox pitcher Clay Buchholz for another time
