Danny DeVito is an American treasure and we secretly wish he was our sitting president. How much more hilarious would the world be then?
From his early Taxi days, all the way through to crawling naked out of a couch on It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia, DeVito has consistently brought the laughs for more than four decades, a legendary example of longevity in the biz. At 74 years of age, the Neptune, New Jersey native is busier than ever, running a production company, appearing in music videos, tripping down the red carpet at movie premieres, and of course, starring in the new Disney remake, Dumbo.
Let’s take a moment to reflect on the comedic might of the funniest man on earth (under five feet tall).
