Australian comedian and children’s book author Andy ‍Lee is looking for a nemesis. In a recent interview, Lee also shared his thoughts on funeral arrangements and his sister’s ⁤support for ⁤his writing career.

Lee joked about wanting to be taxidermied and displayed at his funeral,holding a tray of⁣ drinks. However, he learned that taxidermy on humans is illegal in Australia.

Nemesis Application

“If anyone woudl like to apply to be my nemesis, I am very‍ happy to look⁤ at applications,” Lee said, emphasizing that applicants with a public profile are preferred. He believes having a nemesis would add purpose to life.

Do Not Open This Book

Lee’s book, “Do Not Open This Book,” was initially written for his nephew George. After agreeing to publish it, Lee planned to put the proceeds into a fund for George and other children. The book sold millions,leading to a renegotiation with George,who⁤ was 3 years old at the ⁣time.

Cake-Off

When asked if he could bake a better cake then Hamish Blake, Lee conceded that blake ⁢is superior at decorating cakes, though Lee believes he is the better baker from scratch.

Celebrity Encounters

Lee⁤ recounted an awkward encounter with Adrian ⁢Grenier after an episode of “Rove.” Lee, who was planning to ⁢socialize with Daniel Johns, Natalie Imbruglia and the Silverchair band members, declined Grenier’s invitation to hang out, only to find Grenier at the same venue later.

Kids’ Reviews

One of Lee’s most memorable reviews came in the form ⁤of a video from a school in Mexico,where 400 children enthusiastically responded to his book,giving it ⁢a thumbs up.

Fake Proposals

Before his real proposal to Rebecca Harding, Lee would stage fake proposals whenever he spotted paparazzi. His favorite attempt was⁤ at the ⁤airport conveyor belt.He also staged one while picking up ⁣dog poo.The newspapers never printed these photos, which Lee believes was because he was mocking them.

Life Lessons

Lee shared a lesson he learned from Rob Sitch: ⁣a great idea needs one person to conceive ‍it and two others to validate it,⁣ giving the originator confidence.

Pop Culture

Despite the controversy surrounding Mel ‍Gibson,⁣ Lee ‍said his favorite film is “Braveheart,” citing its score and themes of love, war, and defiance of authority.

Euthanasia

In a surprising turn,Lee shared his controversial opinion⁢ that ⁤society should consider euthanizing everyone at a‍ set age,such as 90,to alleviate worries about mortality and finances.
