'I Won't': Steve Carell Reveals The 1 Thing Fans Ask That He Just Won't Do

Actor Steve Carell said there’s one line associated with one of his most popular characters that he’s not crazy about.

It’s “The Office” boss Michael Scott’s “that’s what she said” jokes.

A fan called into BBC Radio 1 to express the “unpopular opinion” that she doesn’t love the oft-quoted line.

Carell agreed, saying:

Carell said the line was a nuisance when he was out walking around with his kids.

“Someone would roll down the window of their car and scream, ‘That’s what she said!’ with no context,” he said.

Carell said he also doesn’t like when autograph seekers want the line.

“Whenever I’m asked to sign that, I won’t,” he said. “I just can’t abide by that sort of thing.”
